It is hard to think about a project where you do not have dates and timestamps involved in it. You may need to find the day when a user has performed a particular action, or when an event has occurred and many other cases. TimeDifference is a really helpful gem that makes it really easy to calculate the difference between two time periods. It allows you to calculate the difference in years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds.

A couple of weeks ago I learned a really great shortcut for Chrome that I really enjoy using. It is about jumping between tabs by only using my keyboard. Yes, I knew how to switch to certain tabs using Cmd + a number, like Cmd + 3, to switch to the third tab, but I usually have a lot of tabs open and there are no sufficient single digit integers that I can use to switch to those tabs. Aside from that, I am also not sure about the number, so I needed to learn this new shortcut. At least, I know that I needed, as I have found it very helpful, and I hope that you will find it helpful too.
There can be cases when you want to be able to mute a certain tab, as you are not interested in hearing any sound from it. You may simply be interested in reading a paragraph and do not want to get bothered about the sound of the autoplay videos, or ads that are part in that page.
We spend so much time on our devices. Probably the majority of the time that we are awake and get so much immersed into using them such that we may forget to blink. I recently found an app called Pomy which is like a Pomodoro for our eye health.
