I'm using a Pixel 3 (my first Pixel) that I bought new (in original sealed box) on eBay one year ago, for a bit under AUD$300, still works fine, all the apps keep upgrading (the OS won't upgrade as it's EOL, hasn't been

Cash is a free service provided by the government. Card and mobile payment is a fees-attached service provided by businesses. There is every reason to mandate acceptance of the former, and zero reason to mandate acceptance of the latter.

The government provides a public payment system that's accessible to all and that protects privacy. It's called cash.

No emojis (or anything else remotely exotic) in names thanks. /^[A-Za-z\-' ]+$/ Users can beg and grovel at my feet for every measly character beyond that puny set that they want allowed in a name field.

There is an infinite quantity of both rational and irrational numbers, so isn't it therefore impossible for there to be more of one than of the other? Or is the reasoning that, because there is an infinite quantity of irrational number

But pi is ONE "real" irrational number. The golden ratio is ONE more. That's TWO. QED the rational numbers 1 and 2 are "real"?

Gotta say I disagree with this idea. RESTful APIs have become the norm for a reason, and in my opinion it's dangerous and damaging to suggest abandoning them for a whole swathe of back-ends. Re: YAGNI. I worked on a product where, abou

What is this "deterministic combinatorial problem" and "no need for inductive output" gibberish of which you speak? AI! AI! AI!

I have yet to see an AI bot produce anything that's truly intelligent and/or original (all I see is ever more powerful hardware and ever bigger quantities of training data being thrown at essentially the same statistical probabili

That's an incredibly apples-to-oranges comparison! S3 does cloud storage and nothing much else; MacOS runs your whole desktop. Apple's (primary) target audience is Joe-on-the-street consumers; AWS's is devs and businesses. Th

Yet another sad (but unsurprising) reflection of Apple's patronising and contemptuous attitude towards its users. This is the number one reason why I don't use Apple products - because Apple consistently says (via its deeds over a

Hmmm, maybe I should have said "any supposed-to-be-registered vehicle"!

by jaza 3y ago
I answered in the same way. I chose to interpret the rule as "no functioning registered terrestrial road vehicles", in which case emergency vehicles are violating the rule.

I'm really surprised how much anti cloud opinion is being voiced here (but maybe I should have known better, after all these years on HN). Even if you don't use any other cloud tech in your stack, my advice is, use S3 (or equivale

Australian buildings generally have "G" for "Ground" level (or something similar), then level 1 above that, so they're basically 0 indexed.

An inspiring, albeit daunting, write-up for someone like me, who has been a python coder for over 10 years, but who has never professionally coded in C or C++. I'd be pleasantly surprised with myself if I could one day debug like that.
