    My condolences. I don't have any advice, but you may be able to learn something from my very similar experience. https://skogsbrus.xyz/dont-put-all-your-apples-in-one-basket...

    I've had a similar idea on my backburner for two years, as a fun project to dabble in Elixir, but this is just so much more _fun_ than my version which looks like an admin page tha…

    Elixir is really fun. It hits the same spot for me as Ruby does for many others, bringing joy when writing it.

    Can someone explain why this issue deserves a 24h notice? Seems more reasonable to me to have a much longer deprecation notice.

    Really impressed with how thoughtful _and_ fast they are delivering on their type system.

    FWIW, it's not self hosted. I use Fastmail. Thanks for the link about .xyz though, I was not aware it is associated with spam.

    In hindsight, yes that was a bad move (especially considering that my work laptop is still locked to my banned ID…) As an Apple noob at the time, I assumed that if my MDM-managed d…

    With risk of being spammy, this is probably the most relevant discussion I've seen so far on HN w.r.t my experience of being locked out from my Apple ID. I hope legislation will fo…

    True, but Apple specifically in my case was abhorrently indifferent to the consequences and their support structure is entirely unable to help you. If you have a dedicated storage …

    It seems to be extremely rare, but do bear in mind that if Apple bans your account (Apple Id) you will lose access to your icloud files irrevocably. See my previous posts on the ma…

    Read Deep Learning with Python [1]. It's ok not to understand everything, but doing the labs will be invaluable. That book should set you up with the fundamentals. Pytorch is the d…

    I'd recommend moving to development that interfaces with ML instead of moving to being an ML practitioner. You have much faster feedback cycles, your work is predictable (engineeri…

    I've never found this style readable unless with pipes (bash / elixir), where I love it. With any other syntax, I find it just adds mental overhead. Maybe because you have to read …

    Automated account suspension is anti-consumerist for the % of false positives. And since that % likely is low, companies get away with ridiculous processes for recovering your acco…

    As an aside, even if all else fails and I need to factory reset my devices - I'm not sure if that's straight forward if you can't log in to the currently enrolled Apple ID... > If …

    Honestly don't know where I'd even start to initiate such a process (not based in the US). I'm still in a phase where I'm angry enough to keep bugging support / going to Genius bar…

    Tell HN: Apple can lock your account irrevocably without telling you why

    I've been in support with Apple three times now about my Apple ID being deactivated. All my Apple devices prompt me with an error like "This Apple ID is not active" now and again. …

    It is meaningful, but maybe I didn't give enough context. The service ingests data from a timespan T spanning M minutes. Before the next timespan T+1 is ingested, the service has t…

    I've written a couple of C-extensions for a Python service that needed to run in real-time. We started out 100x slower than real-time and managed to make it slightly faster than re…
