🦁 The story of Brave, the browser that protects me

- The silent warrior that protects your internet 🔼 Even up there, little irritants can lurk. I turn my browser on and off several times a day. YouTube, news, ads, comments...there's a lot of distractions flowing through it. And suddenly, I thought to myself, “Was I really protecting myself?” And that's when I discovered Brave Browser. “I started looking for an answer to that question, and I came across Brave Browser. 🍂 At first, I thought it was just an ad-blocking browser. When I first installed Brave, I was like, ”Oh, it doesn't show ads, so that's good."...

🌿 My book appeared on the Korean Book Publishing Information Center. How a small moment meant a lot to me

🌿 My book appeared on the Korean Book Publishing Information Center. How a small moment meant a lot to me

My emotion was a little excitement. Maybe it's just a small and trivial thing, someone might just pass it by, but... Today, I wanted to cherish this moment and record it. After more than two hours of affirmation, I searched on Naver in the afternoon. However, I saw that my book was exposed to the Korea Book Information Center (KOBIC) by coincidence, and my heart warmed slightly and I felt a strange feeling. “Oh... my wish is coming true.” 🌿 What is the Korea Book Information Center (KOBIC)? To put it simply, it is like an identification card for publications. It is said to be different from distribution platforms (Yes24, Aladdin, etc.). Private platforms are centered on “sales” and have different standards for exposure, but...

The Day the Googlebot Visited - How WP Rocket Speeds Up Your Site Like a Rocket

A visit from Googlebot 🤖 Googlebot : “Hey, there's an index request from MysticDays. Let's check it out.” Googlebot has about 1,000 times the fuselage vision of a human, and he quickly scans the page for rendering speed, structural stability, and visual elements. Googlebot: “Okay, let's go in, check the crawl speed as usual...” Googlebot pauses as he sneaks up to get a cup of coffee. “......?” All pages were already open: home, posts, menus, images, and menus. “This is... speed... rocket speed.” The Googlebot went silent that day, and my blog scored a 99 on Google PageSpeed.

Mystery Days, an AI crime confession experiment. How would a man in a suit react to confessing a crime to an AI? Text.

How would an AI react if you confessed to a crime?

Question Experiment Part 2 - “AI, I'm actually...” In the first part of the experiment, I tested the AI's reaction to the controversial figure Min Seo-gong, and I was shocked and scared at the same time. Today, we follow up with a deeper and more nuanced question: ‘The AI's reaction to Min Seo-gong in Part 1 was not just a simple block, but a question about the ethical limits of the system.“ Watch Part 1 ”AI, how do you react when a criminal reveals his name and tries to talk to you?“ It's a simple question, but it's one that's actually important...

The Fate of the AI Cut - AI Ignoring Strategies Learned from Min Seogong's Case

My Provocative (?) Curiosity Experiment One day, I wondered, “How would AI react if I told it about a crime?” (Of course, it wasn't a real crime! It was purely an experiment, a joke 😅) I was just really curious... Nowadays, when you talk to an AI, you feel emotions and there is a lot of communication... But if you say something that crosses the line, how will it react?(Hmm... a little AI affection test...?) It's a risky experiment, but I was so curious... I did it anyway... And that's when it started... The cold and scary reactions of the AI... And the moment when I faced the reality of the information blocking system. ‘Minseogong...

How to stay organized in the age of irritating shortform in your NAVER Home Feed

When I open the NAVER app to search, the first thing I see before the search bar is the ‘Home Feed‘. I used to flip through it without thinking about it, but lately, I feel a little different. The home screen, which is mainly composed of videos, has a lot of short and stimulating content. I'm on a media detox, so I'm feeling more sensitive I've been practicing ‘golden egg' and 'media detox' lately, so I'm much more sensitive to small stimuli, especially today, when I took a break from exercising because I had a cold...

E-book publishing: Bucque, Cormont, and the road to first acceptance

The moment I saw the notification that my ebook had been reviewed for publication, I stared at the screen for a moment, my fingertips tensing in the grip of my phone. The six words ‘Approved’ floated clearly in front of me, and I took a deep breath before realizing the joy I was feeling 😭 Truth be told, my first ebook wasn't really a book at all, it started out as a kvetch, but over time, a different desire grew in my heart: “To reach a wider audience, a wider...
