Some good news from Malaysia! We just reported zero local transmissions for the second time since the second wave started weaning off. https://twitter.com/KKMPutrajaya/status/1280797344351436800?s=20 And the largest cluster in the country, which …

This is why I invested in a good quality face mask. Even bought a few for my family. https://twitter.com/JazliAziz/status/1272815602562789376?s=20

I was never convinced that "natural" herd immunity would be the solution. The concept itself implies that the entire herd must gain immunity, and that means everyone (or almost everyone) must get sick in order for the community to be immune (though …

That's a nice looking school. Really represents South-East Asian schools well. And welcome to Cake! We don't have many people from SEA here, so to see a member from Indonesia is a good thing!

Haven't seen anybody think this is a fair move by Harvard. https://twitter.com/ianbremmer/status/1280193859448983554?s=20

We don't have such robots in Malaysia yet, probably because of how Malaysian cities/housing areas are designed. Such robots couldn't make deliveries in this country, or the delivery radius will be extremely small and not worth all the …

I just got Hellblade about a week ago on sale. Currently playing Crysis 3 but when I'm done with this game Hellblade is next on my list.

Media works in cycles. Now COVID-19 is in the news again because of the recent spike in the US. Also I guess 4th of July made a difference to media reports as well. Let's not forget this humdinger …

Welcome to @billidinho, @MikeMina, and @VinnieRosenberg! How about introducing yourselves to the Cake community in this post? https://cake.co/c/7lQ6c9H

This was one of my points when I initially drafted my post, but I decided to remove it since the reduced pollution was something temporary. But like you said, it did give us a glimpse of the damage we've been causing to the environment, and …

I feel like Cake's Twitter account could be a little more active in promoting the great conversations we have here. We tend to get surges of new users when Cake makes headlines, the two most recent IIRC were when @Chris' post made it onto Hacker …

I've been meaning to write this post for a while now but was kind of beaten to the punch by @cvdavis when he wrote this post. I say "kind of" because my idea is a little different, which is why I'm starting a different conversation rather than …

Meanwhile, cinemas in Malaysia have been allowed to reopen today! https://twitter.com/GSCinemas/status/1278253614385885190?s=20

I've noticed quite a few links are appearing broken again. Same problem as last time?

The lie that iOS is more secure than Android really annoys me. People genuinely believe that none of their personal data is collected and stored by third parties just because Apple says so, no matter how many times it has been proven wrong in the …

While we're on the topic of TikTok and app security. https://www.theverge.com/2020/6/29/21307014/india-ban-tiktok-wechat-china-apps
