For example, they've seen how popular your bot is and have taken your idea and implemented it right into their platform. Even if they might not outright block your bot, it will certainly affect your product's future.

OVH is not good at reliability. Entire data centers go down and there is no communication about it. Scaleway has terrible hardware and is not reliable at all. You can turn off an instance and not be able to turn it on again because they

Does that mean you also have to pay transaction fees for every trade, and wait for confirmations, etc.?

Bitfinex buys cryptos with them on their own exchange. They get free cryptos, and everybody else gets monopoly money in exchange. Tether is such a scam it's unbelievable.

Scaleway uses weak atom cpus if you choose the x86 servers. Much weaker than DO, which is already pretty bad.

It doesn't even matter if they don't hold the USD to back tether. They make it clear in their ToS that users cannot redeem their USDT for USD. There is no known case of anybody being able to cash out USDT directly from tether.to.

That's not the complete source code. Some parts are kept secret such as the voting algorithm.

Registered by the author. What lwansbrough means is that they weren't already registered, which means it's unlikely this was previously exploited unless the previous registrant let those domains expire afterwards.

I have the opposite experience. Focus stealing is such a problem for me in OSX to the point where I actually noticed the issue. I'm sure there's focus stealing in windows as well but never to the point where it got in the way of w

I think rhodysurf means swiping the magentic strip on the back of the card, not contactless payment.

It's not about your own intentions. You are using third party services which track and collect data for their own purposes.

Same, using vim "full time" was what really made me learn and appreciate it. Before that it was just something I would occasionally use when making quick edits on a server.

> Waiter spit in my food and was really obnoxious/rude to me - 10% tip It is absolutely insane to me that you would tip anything at all in that case. US tipping culture is crazy. In what situation would you give 0% tip?

I turn on 2FA wherever I can now. If only steam supported modern 2FA and not sending a code via email.

I agree. I thought I had installed ubuntu recently on ovh servers, and found many files/folders in `/sys/kernel` missing. I had to google around a bit to find out that when I installed Ubuntu, it wasn't actually Ubun

They are waiting for bitcoin to become the number #1 currency. Just like people joke about 'the year of linux'. Guess what, linux is still around. It doesn't need to be #1. There may never be a 'year of linux', but
