You may have noticed a new obnoxious behavior in the JetBrains/IntelliJ series of editors when invoking the actions menu ⌘+shift+A. Instead of the normal actions menu rendered by the editor, you get this menu explaining something unrelated.

I came across this nice technique for keeping your markup in a Vue app nice and clean, but still inlining the SVGs at compile-time with webpack. Because SVGs are xml, you can treat them like any other piece of markup with html-loader and as a result, you get nicely integrated SVG content. <div :key="type" v-html="require(!html-loader!@/assets/${type}-line.svg)"></div> Works super well and has the added benefit of side-stepping any preloading of SVGs you might need to do.
VPNs are super useful tools for keeping your information private for any reason. If you’re on coffee shop WiFi and need to do some banking (tho I’d advise strongly against doing this) you should do that on a VPN.

Because of the Equifax information breach, many people are curious about how they can protect their identity.
I think many people think well, the hackers have all my info, I can’t do anything, right?
You should assume your information has been compromised.
What can you do about it?
