At least pretend to get your realtime data right before posting on HN.
- wingerlang 10y agoThey seems to link the stuff to this https://cdn.blackbox.cool/uploads/json/boxes_shipped.json https://cdn.blackbox.cool/uploads/json/boxes_shipped.json Perhaps they do sent the real number, but it is being cached by the CDN?
- daxfohl 10y agoEven if that's the awesomest tech available, the "realtime update" is so fake and so immediately identifiable as such and so immediately confirmable as such (and the most eye-drawing component of their homepage!) that the company loses all credibility. Without knowing anything else about them, it's a pretty bad indicator.

- wingerlang 10y agoOr it is just a case of dead-reckoning... which is pretty standard.
