I noticed that the Shorts pedaling is causing a major deterioration of the service and it started a few years ago. At some point I looked too long at a thirst trap and now all I get is OF girls jumping on trampolines and stuff like that, de

Late 90s there were some great IRC channels for this. I was pretty active in one that revolved around a genre that I most enjoyed.

No they don’t. They just have to price the product to reflect changing user patterns. When backblaze started, it was simply “we back up all the files on your drive” they didn’t even have a restore feature that was your job when you needed i

Sorry but unlimited has never meant unrestricted. TOCs always have restrictions. If it were unrestricted it would be used for all kinds of illegal stuff they don’t want on their servers, child pr0n and whatnot. They can’t legally offer a se

It's all hypothetical of course but I know Vegas has some high table/game minimums and these markets can be pretty cheap if you just want a piece of action. Also, eliminates the cost of actually traveling. Again, no idea if anyone

Makes sense there is a divide in how people like to enact changes like this. For me, the mental shift of using yet another app would be more of a headache than just doing it manually in the native app. I've been using the native app fo

Except, the thing is, a decent portion of the population enjoys throwing money away in casinos. If they feel a similar level of enjoyment/entertainment from this type of market, then it's no different and they're playing for

Bravo on the learning! Now regarding the app idea, is it really that hard to just change the native alarm by a minute for someone that was interested in this? If that's hard, actually waking up when the alarm goes off earlier seems mor

Probably. It’s already happening with SaaS as an example. I’ve mentioned this on HN a lot in past but my (established) company has been rolling its own CRM and some other tools with AI. It seems we can build a product ourselves in the same

Interesting they went from 90 minute manual booking time to microseconds. I’m unsure of what the landscape was really like before Unix and such, maybe this was just how software was and everything was a bespoke ordeal. But, it makes me wond

That’s why I said “how I read this chart is ….” I don’t know what pre2018 looked like either. But on this chart, it was the precovid portion. Nowhere on here am I seeing how covid caused a spike up, that’s what you said though and signifyin

It looks like that rapid increase was a return to pre-covid normal. It never spikes above pre-covid. Given the world was returning to normal, this is precisely what you'd expect most trends to look like, something like in-restaurant di

There are two nearly identical peaks on this chart. The trough between them is Covid. I’m not seeing anything I can call a Covid spike

I read this as 2020 was Covid related drop, it then returned to normal for 2 years, then began dropping again in late 2023. The covid blip is explained by what was going on at the time, nothing since 2023 has any explanation and could be fl

It kind of reminds me of grammar police type personalities. They are so hung up on the fact it reads “ugly” they can’t see the message; this code powers a rapidly growing $400B company. They admit refactoring is easy, but fail to realize th

Fiduciary responsibility in this context is a large umbrella of responsibilities. They should be fighting the new nasdaq rules on behalf of us. As you mentioned, this forces them to participate in fleecing the passive fund holding public an

Their apps do a lot and usually do not run well in my experience. Meaning they can freeze and lock things up on occasion.

If Idiocracy was made today, I wonder how far in the future they’d place it. In 2006, they thought 500 years which seems optimistic now.

I’d argue that there should be no higher business priority than shipping a product you already sold. If you sold a product and your customer spends their time documenting exactly why and how you sold them something that’s broken, you should
