I sob over Palestine. Mothers, fathers, and children: dead, or dying. 2.2 million people, as of this article, call Palestine their home. I've never been great with articulating my thoughts, but this will be my best attempt, in hopes to inform, and spread awareness with context to the relationship of Israel and Gaza over the last 50 years.

Palestine stands even before the...

Today, large corporations mostly control every aspect of their business. Every icon, step, action, and click is traced, calculated, tracked, saved, and placed inn ways that subconiciously trick your brain into doing what that company wants.

OAuth2 is a set of rules for communicating sessions between two websites. Think of OAuth2 as the same rules we use daily when we drive to work. Similar to how we all understand red means stop, green means go, and when you see a person crossing the street, most times, you stop. OAuth2 is similar, as it sets a standard that 2 websites can comprehend.
