I had the exact same flow: received a SMS instead of asking for my TOTP, despite having enabled it. I think I removed and re-added my Authenticator from PayPal’s settings and now it works again, never sending the SMS. (This was about a year

Why install software, if I can do this quickly in a browser, especially if I need to do this only once?

10% reach 60. No numbers above that. They are healthy while alive, but don’t live longer than people from developed nations. Look, the discussions around bad health effects of meat consumption all resolve around heart disease and cancer. Th

Thanks for clarifying. I mixed up the offset rule and the unused capital losses rule. I’m not very deep into US tax laws ;)

No. To be more specific, I made 750k and lost 250k (note: from a German tax perspective, you could subtract the losses instantly from the gains, unlike in the US, where losses are spread over many years). I learned my lesson already and pul

Initially I put about €65k into put options. The crash came so fast that it turned into a lot more very quickly. If your bet turns green instantly, you don’t see the risk. I couldn’t do the same thing again. I was very naive, but it helped

In Germany, it is absolutely the case, yes. We have unlimited SMS as well, but I think we didn’t have it back in 2011 or whenever WhatsApp launched. Almost everybody is on WhatsApp. Groups for local stuff, extended family, parents of kids c

You never know which domains an app connects to. They could collect even more info about you and send it to thousands of websites. In a browser, it is easy to see for somewhat technical people. To detect app tracking, you need more sophisti

Thanks for sharing, maybe the intention does make a difference. Or maybe I'm a bit too self-critical. I probably get some kind of breakthroughs or profound thoughts after all, but only on a fraction of all walks and rides – which is ok

I spend quite a lot of time alone by myself. I usually go for a walk or ride my bike. Going to the library is another way to fill your brain with other peoples’ ideas, just like scrolling social media. But I have to be honest: there are zer

A data point may be used in several places in your UI. Why should it be clipped at the application level, if the same string is shown in a headline or list abbreviated and in another place in full?

How would I purchase Bitcoin anonymously? I can't, because there is no way to exchange my cash for (significant) amount of Bitcoin. If I can't get Bitcoin anonymously, how is the promise of crypto still valid for newcomers?

Scaling customer support is the biggest fear, but I think it isn’t as bad as people think it is. 1. You can get a long way with extensive FAQ and give people ways to help themselves. 2. Existing customers don’t need the same kind of handhol
