This...

Whenever I reach an intersection, I most of the time have my foot on the break. Even when I see someone that will join the road from the right or left I put my foot on the break and be ready for it.

Why? Because it happens few times and having my foot on the break saved my life. I recommend everyone to do that.

My uncle just emigrated from Lebanon a few months ago and when he came to Canada, he couldn't believe the difference at the beginning, it was a shock for him.

Little old article, but what I can tell you is that it got much much worse as of now compared to a year ago.

Just search "Lebanon Electricity Crisis"

It is really hell on earth. I have relatives who live there and for the most, they are using other forms of food reservations besides fridges (salt, dry meat...)

They have small batteries that they recharge in this one hour that they can use for one light in the house for the rest of the day.

I'm honestly tired of 99.99% of tech news being about Apple, Meta and Alphabet. Give us something more interesting already, come on people. How the Quantum Computers going for example, and what about other cools new interventions that will change the field. For example AV1 that will flip the streaming field and video storage industry upside down.
