There is one thing critically missing from a privacy perspective: fine grained permissions for Contacts. It is all or nothing. All or nothing means, Facebook gets all my Contacts data if I enable the permission in WhatsApp. Including birthd

There have been more PRs created with the same tagging and apparently, you can’t unsubscribe from individual PR notifications or taggings of organizations. That is what this is all about. See: https://github.com/EpicGames&#x

Exactly the opposite. It should've been 0€, because then you: * don't have to sell tickets at all * don't have to check tickets in trains and reduce costs The overhead of selling tickets with the new price points might actual

I have a B2C app with a prepaid model as well since 2011. It works like a charm. Very easy to understand, no confusion. Refunds are maybe 1 per month. I haven't had a single credit card chargeback ever and I think only 2-3 PayPal &quot

It’s perceived as AAA until it’s not. Easy as that. Like WireCard that was a "good business", which turned out to be a fraud and the stock price crashing 70% in one day and 99% within a week. So what is your point actually?

And the crypto bros conveniently ignore that you can’t easily exchange your BTC for actual cash to buy real things without an exchange or a bank account.

In the end, they could deny that they have your data and you will never find out.

Isn’t that the movie in which every dialog is basically "but look at the numbers" without ever going into any kind of detail? I didn’t like it.

Because for some people, it’s not about maximizing financial returns, but to have only their name in the deed and not the bank. Zero hassling with banks is freedom.

I'd rather eat 3 times a day than feeling stuffed from shoveling 2,000 kcal in my stomach once a day – and even if you sit around all day, you still burn up to 2,000 kcal.

Can second this. Nobody ever said anything about these subtle details and I think there's a very good reason why that is: Most native apps also have inconsistencies, lags, delays, especially if they connect to some remote web service.

I can second this. My Ionic app runs incredible stable, no issues, users are happy. It is not super complex and doesn't make use of native APIs beyond in app purchases, but it isn't super trivial either. The performance is good on

Same here. Everybody from university does their own thing now. Unfortunate, new people I meet are often the ones who grew up in this town and still have their high school friends. They have no desire to meet new people. It’s hard to make ne

Art. Painting, drawing, seeing. Bought an iPad Air and the Apple Pencil a week ago to use Procreate. I like traditional media, but the setup is annoying and the canvases and papers and whatnot start to pile up.

I found the 4 second rule interesting, but I wonder how this should play out. Most humans break eye contact after 2-3 seconds. It's extremely uncommon to find someone holding eye contact for longer than that. After ~3 seconds, it can b

The ones who looked shitty because of long-term fasting probably didn’t attend. If it works for you, sounds great. But this is survivorship bias 101.
