Fiverr pays damages to competitors for wrong trademark claim?

In the recent development of Fiverr's illegal route of blocking/suspending/closing competitors' PayPal accounts, PayPal is unblocking many of it's competitors sites.

But, the serious question here is the damage enforced by Fiverr and PayPal. Will Fiverr pay damages to the sites for it's alleged trademark ownership and shutting down the competitors through PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy division?

There are lot of other questions too:


  • What will be the action taken against Fiverr by PayPal?

  • Who will pay the damages--for blocking the competitors' site for about 1-week time?

  • How come the company in Israel claims that it owns a trademark--without owning it?

  • What will be the action taken by US government on Fiverr? and PayPal?

  • What's the future of the micro-entrepreneurs--when big companies act and play monopoly?

Solved: "Ports" Tab Not Visible in VS Code (WSL2)

None of the solutions I found on Reddit or GitHub worked, and most of the related GitHub issues were locked. So I'm documenting this here for future reference. Problem When using WSL2 in Visual Studio Code, the Ports tab—needed to access your application in Windows browsers like Chrome or Edge—doesn't appear. Even the Ports-related options are missing from the Command Palette. Solution After a lot of trial and error, here's what worked: Run npx serve in the VS Code terminal. It will output a URL such as http://localhost:3000/ . Click the link (or use the Follow Link option). This will open the app in your default browser. You may notice that it opens on a different port (for example, http://localhost:64198 ). At this point, the Ports tab becomes available in VS Code. After this initial trigger, the Ports tab seems to remain available in future VS Code...

"A to Z of C" book turns 5

A to Z of C , the DOS/Turbo C programming book written by K. Joseph Wesley and myself turned 5 on August 1. Initially, we felt bad for spending our time in writing a book that were rejected and deceived by publishers. Now we get quite reasonable appreciations from people around the world--even though it's having technical and grammatical errors. Long live the internet publishing! Probably a time for "A to Z of PHP" ?
