But will it lose some context, like Kevin’s small talk? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K-L9uhsBLM)

Like "Sea world" or "see the world".

Re:Selling SaaS in Japan on Monday January 19, 2026 @09:57PM (#46687390)
One thing I agree with the Japanese on is that documentation is king! One major reason I decline various software demos or testing opportunities is the lack of proper documentation or screenshots. Maybe it's because I am from SEA; I tend to hesitate to confront people or ask questions, especially during a demo.

Not to mention the whole informative slideshow between the scene.Can't imagine how can they achieve that with only 2 lines.

Re:Japan Post launches 'digital address' system on Wednesday May 28, 2025 @11:19PM (#44122798)
Thailand have also tried to do Digital ID[0] thing since 2022[1]. Yet, we still have to do it in an traditional way anyway since its service is so limited.

Looks like tracking number scraping is so much of an issue now isn't it? (Although, in this case, this incident is also include bribing an employee too.) Quite the same story with the GPU delivery scam covered by LTT recently. [0]

In my country, at least, some provider is now requiring related party's phone number to be included in order to access the tracking data. [1]

Re:Litdb – type safe SQL for JavaScript/TS on Thursday December 05, 2024 @10:44PM (#42336112)
Ah yes, another ORM pretending to be SQL-like syntax. Uhhhhhh

EDIT: They don't even support, not to not mention, CTE! Come on!

I CALL BS. We paid ALL THE TIME! We pay even item's capacity so much they need to increase the limit recently[1].

It's kinda same here in Thailand; with much more bureaucrat issue though.

Although we didn't explicitly have a consumer court, we have a court department in both municipal and Provincial Courts. (ศาลจังหวัด/ศาลแขวง... แผนกคดีผู้บริโภค)

People can file a complaint themselves both in-person or via e-Filing system. Although very tedious to do so, at least in my opinion, it still workable.

Same as the blog's author, any plaintiff I've help with, need some patient and times on both evidence collecting and consulting with the court's appointed lawyer to draft the complaint. But, for the case against big company at least, it mostly worked out for them.

I use Mermaid[1]. I used to use Visual Paradigm but it seems excessive (to me at least). Good enough for me, especially with integration into Markdown.

Obligatorily, Geerling Engineering (by Jeff Geerling and his father) video discuss this issue last week [1].

EDIT: Seems likely the tower is already unused [2]. Maybe they think they can getaway without AM Tx?

Yeah... No need to fear of vendor lock-in huh?
