We are now 7 hours into 2021 here in Malaysia. Though I'm doubtful we'll end the pandemic this year in its entirety, I do hope the world gets a better grip on it and we can start to recover.

> Are you posting these images just for us all to look at, and appreciate, or are you hoping for concrete suggestions for further improvement in your macro work? You did not express an interest in any image critiques so I hesitate. I was just …

Two years ago I completed a year-long photography project on Twitter. For 365 consecutive days I posted a photo taken on my smartphone to the social network and I shared my experience here on Cake after I was done. I repeated the project again in …

I don't really see any reason why religion and science can't coexist. I believe in my faith (Islam) and I also believe in science (obviously, as my education is in biomedical science). If anything, learning about the intricacies of life at the …

What kind of person steals a freaking plant??

> If you "create content" to post here, and take days to do that - what's your actual goal, and do you think that this goal is best served by posting the content you created on Cake? I write because I enjoy it. And I also enjoy it when other …

> It is possible that the biggest enemy Cake has is simply time. If we just keep hanging in there and putting out more content, maybe at some point the scale will tip in the type of direction that we all want. I agree that time is a major factor …

> Yeah, there were a couple of factors. One is that at one time we had employees and made it part of their jobs to post every day in order to generate content because content begets content. It's a common strategy to get a site to critical mass. …

> This is something that @JazliAziz has brought up multiple times on here. For good reason, I think. I didn't just bring up the idea of more promotion on Twitter, I even volunteered to run the account 😆 I'm on Twitter every day and it wouldn't be …

Wow. Did not expect to see this. I've been busy in the lab recently and writing about all the books I read this year (which I just posted) that I just did not see this when it was posted a week ago. Truly saddened by the prospect of Cake closing …

Last year was the first time I took reading seriously (outside of my studies), and I managed to read 12 books throughout the entire year. I didn't want it to be a one time thing. I wanted reading to be something I did as a habit, and so I continued …

I've been using YouTube Premium for over a year now. Love it. https://twitter.com/JazliAziz/status/1336825786372788226?s=20

For the better part of the last 10 years whenever anyone asked me "what do you do?" my answer would always be "I'm a student". It's not untrue, but it never told the whole story. Yes, I was a student, still am too as I'm pursuing my PhD, but I'm …

In a huge move that has shaken the movie and streaming industries, Warner Bros. has made the bold decision to release all it's upcoming movies for next year on its HBO Max streaming service as well as in cinemas on the same day. Wonder Woman 1984 …

Malaysia will start vaccinations next year but only a portion of the population will get it first. The spread of the virus is contained to several clusters while we are under the current Conditional Movement Control Order, so even if a small …

Glad to help!

This is accurate. The biggest risk of transmission is person-to-person, not environmental. UV would be a good solution to airborne particles, but COVID-19 is not airborne. Some of the largest clusters in Malaysia come from shared residences where …

I'm more of a Blink and a Midzy myself 🤣 Welcome to Cake by the way!

The power of a great story. https://twitter.com/IGN/status/1332399058930061312?s=20

> The reviewer who did not like the series was put off by the sudden reappearance of Jolene (?), the black girl from the orphanage. The reviewer was incensed at the idea that the black girl would show up out of nowhere and then just turn over her …

Never thought about that. I guess since she's still young she only has chess on her mind. She could play chess until she's as old as that Russian guy she beat in the semi-finals too. She gets paid from the tournaments too, so there's no real need …

Thanks for participating in the conversation. And welcome to Cake!

Hello guys, how are you? I'm good, thanks for asking! I would like to ask you some questions ok? You've already asked two, but go ahead. Well, what do you think of cinematography in England? Don't really have much to say about it really, but I …

Yea YouTube doesn't reward versatility. One of the channels I sub to used to have one channel for both their gaming and vlogging videos. Apparently it wasn't working so they made a second channel just for gaming videos and the original channel will …

One of the double-edged swords of the internet is anonymity. It allows people to assume an alter ego, a character, a "secret identity" if you will, who is able to live a life in cyberspace with almost no consequences to their real life. However …
