Tempo rubato! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempo_rubato

At Stripe, we believe that the burden of proof is on he who denies, not on he who declares.

I got some banana bread at work today. Hell yeah. So it goes to show that waiting for things is, like, worth it. But there's a lot of bad things in this world, dude. Like fucking s…

I don't mind the sluggishness as much as the dialog in Witcher games. I tend to prefer games with little-to-no required dialog and Zelda's interactions tend to be more mechanical t…

“For example, one argument would be that the evidence I’ve presented here is consistent with a strategy of quickly shipping “version one” with poor performance, then starting work …

Or as Casey would put it: Discord is taking 3.7moo ("Moon Unit") to open. A Moon Unit is equal to ~2.7 seconds, the maximum ping time to the moon. Therefore, if Discord had their s…

I never have trouble with memory management in C by sticking to "grouped element architectures" with explicit lifetimes such as arenas, scratch allocators, dynamic pools, etc. RAII…

I recommend taking a look at Handmade Hero. Follow the first 20-ish episodes then brach off and use the Episode Guide ( https://guide.handmadehero.org/code ) when needed. Also join…

Instant response != Instant resolution. Getting support at Stripe is easy for easy things, but hard when it actually counts. Based on what we've seen here (and what I've personally…

As an individual, you should have the right to access any information another person wishes to generate. AFAICT, Hacker News moderators are hiding posts they believe do not provide…

> We do not hold any user funds for any reason other than fraud prevention. Ah yes, the things we do for "fraud prevention". I get that regulations might have Stripe's hands tied, …

Pop and swap while iterating is definitely a useful feature. You can also queue removals up and do the pop and swap all together on a cleanup pass (snippet below). That said, most …

Our main bulk of transactions get processed with 4 different local payment providers (Accepta, Bank Tech, Dynamics Payments, and Evertec), one of which integrates with Authorize.ne…

We've done business with many "old school" merchant service providers and none have had us pay anything upfront. The only difference is that Stripe has a better API. Stripe's onboa…

It's simpler than most people think. The Present Value of $10/month for 5 years is ~$450 at around 15% Discount Rate. For consumer software, many are not willing or able to invest …

>somehow you were able to get all of this cleared up within the day Exactly. This is why the whole "their hands are tied" excuse is so frustrating to me.

That's because Shopify Payments is just a front for Stripe. We've seen both sides at our company and they behave exactly the same.

>almost guaranteed The issue most people in this thread are talking about exists in the almost . If it was always guaranteed, then there would not be so much evidence to the contra…

We've been moving away from Stripe and Stripe-backed (e.g. Shopify) payment gateways pretty much everywhere we can for this same reason. We only have a few integrations left connec…

This happened to us multiple times too. Everything gets resolved after 1+ months of having our payouts frozen. This means we have to go months without a single dollar being deposit…
