100 Pokecoins for 0.99 yet also selling 550 Pokecoins for 6.99! 0.99 * 6 = 600 Pokecoins for $5.99 550 poke coins is $6.99 So more money for less tokens when you buy 'more'

I envy staring into my neighbors AC units from my living room, since McMansions are built 8 ft apart...

I think this is the architects idea of McMansion hell. My idea of McMansion hell is how closely they build them together AND the placement of them. For example, many of the big communities built here in Central Florida have your living room

You can buy literally any platforms equivalent of upvotes. What's special about this? Any sufficiently large site will have to deal with bad actors and bots, HN is no different. HN has not been a small site for 3-4 years now.

The math is pretty straight forward. Cost to make article = $2000 Article gets 100,000 views Fly.io converts 1% of views to paying customers 1,000 new customers. Revenue per customer = $10 monthly MRR goes up by $10,000 Obviously I am pulli

All while many states have increased funding. Here in Florida the cops are complete dead weight, they used to enforce DUIs religiously Friday / Saturday night. Now you will barely see anyone pulled over and definitely a marked increase

Probably a few reasons: 1. Number of rear end and front end collisions and how expensive it would be to repair charge ports. 2. It would be ugly, people complain about the radar placement on some cars, imagine every car having both a radar

I get power from a local coop instead of Duke, and to no ones surprise its 38% cheaper for the same damn power plant. They actually just cut their rates, while Duke raised them. No surprise to me that Duke is publicly traded and more expens

It is dangerous, their vendors could suffer a supply chain attack and have malware injected into their scripts. This can be mostly prevented by using CSP Hash, then having strong auditing that produces a 'trusted' version. This of

I am currently doing part time contract work to migrate an organization from a managed hosted LMS (learning management system) that went from $30k a year to $250k a year over the last 3 years. The vendor has essentially rug pulled them. Eve

Well when 90% of your budget goes to marketing and covering up your ponzi scheme, doesn't leave a whole lot to engineering.

They charge up to 5x the rate of electricity at peak times, I have seen $.64/kwh at noon on a Saturday. That has to be some heavy margin for them.

I thought the NACS charging standard was free to use, and already interoperable with existing protocols given the fact a simple passive adapter converts from the other standard to the NACS one.

Seems like we're always missing a fusion of: 1. SPA that you can run on your phone or desktop 2. Centralized User Management, need some way to block known bad actors 3. Signing posts / comments 4. Distribution of posts and comment

Its terrifying to see two of the main reasons are from people who do not know how to adjust their lock times & sleep mode on Windows / iOS. We're going to be teaching kids how to use a computer the same way we taught the elder

Noticed this the other day when behind an Ioniq, I knew immediately it was because of regen braking. I love Technology Connections for taking it a layer deeper and going into the regulations and industry experts.

When I saw this pop up on TikTok my initial reaction was there is a survivorship bias: we are only seeing the most absurd places. That being said, Manhattan has to be one of the prime examples as to why you should not be able to write a ren

The hilarious thing to me about these new neighborhoods, is you can easily find their 'end game' state by just going to one that was built 12-15 years ago. You will find the same story, brand new -> rusted out fences, broken li

My HOA (condo) banned Ring door bells thankfully. Not only does it track everyones movements without consent, it would stare directly into neighbors apartments depending on door locations in the hall way...

The web experience of Word, Power Point and Excel, are appalling. Laggy, resource hogs. Excel & Power Point are damn near unusable on anything complicated.

Nothing is safe sadly, HIPAA does almost nothing, in reality very few companies actually get the full fat $1000 per patient fine. Even the regulation itself is now hilariously outdated, "encrypted at rest and transit" is absolutel

I briefly looked to see how its footprint has increased, but couldn't find anything compelling. The binary has remained tiny, with most OS's under 2MiB, but that won't really indicate memory usage. Do you have any articles to

This is a huge loss IMO, buying kitchen supplies and bedding on Amazon is complete shit. Target isn't much better due to lack of variety and types of bedding. I've bought the same bed sheets for 5+ years, a few months ago I bought
