"starbucks says there is no limit on how many napkins I can use but they got mad when I took the whole container, liars"

The argument goes, the purpose of prediction markets is not to be fair, it's to provide information. Allowing insider trading benefits that purpose. And I think that's fair - this …

Yeah, immediately off-putting, even though I actually enjoy the podcast. Not for like "AI bad" reasons, it's just ugly. Micheal, if you are reading this - please fix, it should tak…

Might be worth noting the figure in question is the creator of Ruby on Rails.

App and streaming mostly work for me (slower then ususal and search seems broken). Interesting outage.

Simple and clever. One concern I have is in my experience the kindle displays are quite fragile, I would worried it would break mounted like that.

Still remember when 10k USD/BTC was the unrealistic target everyone laughed at. Funny how we blew way past that, but without achieving nearly any real usecases.

Only 50% support for ? Where is this world going.

The finite supply is a feature, not a bug. I agree there are many aspects of bitcoin that suck, but not this one. We are right now witnessing many governments printing more and mor…

no way to prevent just adding a 'not' while still allowing sensible editing.

A different one at that. But other 2-letter queries return normal sets of results.

It seems like we broke it -- it now refuses to do any searches for me (due to suspicious activity from 'my' ip)

If I listen carefully, I can tell the difference between 48 and 50hz using a sine generator (although it's very subtle), so I'd guess that you possibly could.

Yep. Especially since communicating clearly is exactly their job.

I'm not sure if "in violation of contract" counts as illegal in this case.

That's important. But it does not stand in opposition to this.

in the EU, you can use revolut - their paid plan seems to provide a service pretty similiar to privacy.com

That speed limit might be more noise related. So the harm is much different, but the victims are people living nearby.

Yes! This is a major issue even in moderate traffic. They could probably adapt the under-side lights to function as turn signals. The scooters are just too narrow to drive one-hand…

Yes! It seems like somehow many bar/restaurant owners have no interest in making their spaces sonically comfortable. I've been in some that felt like they were designed for maximum…

I'm relatively young. I use emojis daily - they are part of the way we use slack in our company. I still don't really like them. It just feels like they are necessary because we ha…

Off topic, but I think it's the first time I see emojis in commit messages. Nice to see that it works, but I don't know how to feel about it.
