    > bicycles ... has made us increasingly weak This is pretty difficult for me to buy. Cycling has been shown time & again to be a great way to increase fitness.

    GitHub's reliability has gotten pretty terrible since the Microsoft acquisition, well before ZIRP ended.

    Generally agree with your point, but not sure I'd call 312 EV and a 1.6% margin a "landslide".

    The point is that the Fed isn't classifying those things. "Ordinary" includes all primary mortgages, whether for a modest home or a luxury pad. It includes all personal car payment…

    The phone tree stuff on Pixel is decent but nowhere near 100% reliable or robust. If it hears and understands an automated system speaking out a phone tree, it will start to list t…

    You captured some of the ideas that have been swimming around in my brain for a little while and really crystallized them. Couldn't agree more.

    I think for a lot of founders, there is significant financial cost or opportunity cost upfront. Especially if you are bootstrapping.

    Maybe but hallucinations become a real problem here. Even with publicly available API's that are just slightly off the beaten path, I've gotten full-on hallucinations that have der…

    That's great internally, but serious external communication with customers should have a name attached and responsibility accepted (i.e., "the buck stops here").

    Isn't the whole "Flutter team layoffs" narrative somewhat debunked at this point? My understanding is that some positions were cut and some were moved, but no more than any other e…

    Just to be really clear since I had to call the IRS tax hotline the other day... they are real experts over there. And generally, people will tell me, "I'm not sure" or "I don't kn…

    How do you login to iCloud without any second factor available?

    Probably not a lot. It needs to have a fixed length on the wire, and having 100 updates to the radio firmware for any given model of handset... not likely?

    Wouldn't you still need to provide an amount of power to the laser that's not currently feasible for a watch?

    Yeah, good point. This would probably be better received overall if it were a per-artist minimum rather than a per-track. On the other hand, that would make it pretty trivial for g…

    First off, it's not strictly true that medical debt won't show up on a consumer credit report. Medical debts that are in collections will eventually show up, if they are large enou…

    Article states "threshold of 1,000 plays in the preceding 12 months". Sounds like you're well over that, at around 3-4K plays per year.

    Yeah... unfortunately it seems like "problem with major company, can't get support" has become an entire genre of HN post.

    Thanks for the heads-up. Exploring other channels now. We can't risk having the account shutdown for 200 days (or even 30).

    Thanks. I'll update here if/when I can.

    You're probably right. We can hopefully get back the money, but there's no getting back the lost revenue. Missed the wire cutoff for today but guess I know what I'll be doing tomor…
