Earlier quoted context omitted.

Lots of important info get posted in HN everyday without the fancy design that takes a lot of clicks and waiting times, so how could you assume it won’t make it to the front page? This is why people need to stop using the “false dichotomy” card in every discussion. It’s so devoid of rigor in thinking and is always used lazily to frame another person’s comment in a paradigm that it wasn’t intended to be framed.

Have you considered that the design is more important than the data in this context? I mean, I sure don't care worth a damn whether there are 100, 1000, or 10000 orders being placed per second. It's a meaningless figure to me.

Cute. Keyboard navigation doesn't work though, that'd be properly '80s.

You can tab + space bar to navigate through the pages if you'd like!

Yes, but that's just using the standard browser keybindings for keyboard navigation across links.

I was thinking of , , or something similarly "DOS-like".

This reliably kills Firefox on Linux here. The whole browser. After a few seconds, during which the laptop fans are spinnung up, all tabs go into a "This tab just crashed" state.

I just looked at it in Firefox/Linux, no problem.

~$3.2B USD in processed transactions through stripe (so far). ~42M transactions.

~$92.8M for 2.9% fee. ~$12.6M for 30 cent fee. ~$105.4M just for processing transactions on a single day.

Above assumes the “standard” pricing [1]. It’s not quite clear how much stripe takes from the 2.9% and 0.30 cut. Likely have to share this with card network and issuing bank.

The invisible hand of traditional banking system taking money out of our pockets every time.

Your first sentence is exactly what it means to think in terms of form over function. There is exactly nothing unique about the 80s pixellated design but there is about the data being presented, which is actually valuable to many possible parties:

* competitors

* creditors

* investors

* employees

* academics

* journalists

* policymakers in financial services

The design is not valuable to anyone, even to those who have no serious business with the data but who somehow feel the need to defend the design in the comments section, because regardless of the design they would visit the link anyway for the information it contains and because of the clickbaity title, not because of the design.

Fraudulent transactions are ~10% of all transactions? That seems much higher than I would expect.

I wonder how many are false positives though. Sometimes people fat finger the CVV/CVV2 code and bank will decline it.

Does that count as a “blocked fraudulent charge”?

Uhhh… how exactly were these transactions supposed to even take place without the banking system?

I have no interest in bartering or sending ounces of gold around.

And don’t say crypto - last time I tried to figure it out, I ended up sending ETH, and more than half of it evaporated in “gas money”. What a joke.
