Spam Received on Email Alias

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 01:05:27 +0200

If you’ve read a few of my previous posts, you’ve probably noticed that I’m a big fan of SimpleLogin. It allows you to create a unique email alias for every online account, so you never have to hand out your real email address.

Besides the obvious privacy benefits, there’s another advantage that people often mention: if a company suffers a data breach or decides to sell your email address, you’ll know exactly who leaked it. Since every service gets its own unique alias, any spam sent to that alias immediately tells you where your address came from.

Reading Books With Ai

Do you know the feeling when you’re struggling through a difficult book? Sometimes you’ll catch yourself just reading the words, not really understanding what they mean…

It happens to me all the time.

And I know why it always does.

I read something that I think I sort of understand, but in reality I really don’t.

What do I do?

I read on anyways..

And what always happens?

The author further builds upon that very thing I don’t understand.

Terminal, CLI, shell

Terminal, command line interface (CLI), shell…

They are commonly known terms used interchangeably to mean “the nerdy box where you type in commands”.

However these words all have slightly different meanings.

Terminal

A computer needs some way for the users to be able to interact with it. Years ago they used a seperate physical ’terminal’ to do that. It was a screen with a keyboard attached to it. That way you could type in commands to control another more powerfull pc.
