Technically speaking, the dot "." is also a regexp character that matches any symbol ;) Anyhow, I've added a name search box using the "like" pattern, going to look into regex later this week.

If this ever catches on, I'll put up my own CORS-proxy or donate, of course. P.S. Actually, looking at the http headers, the request is being cached by Cloudflare so no load on the tool.

Hi, author here. Actually the sole reason I've built yet another EC2 instance comparison table is because my favorite "goto" app at "ec2instances.info" was acquired, became a bit slow, lags updates and has some bugs

RE: use case In our SaaS we enforce slightly stronger limits for trial accounts who sign up from free/disposable emails. User is Gmail? Well, sorry, +XX to "spam score". They will probably use our system for spamming.

So. After 10 years in business and THOUSANDS of customer requests (I even made one myself, in-person when I met Patrick Colison at a conference) Stripe has introduced... a calculator. And you still have to do everything yourself - filing th

Have to admit my own knee-jerk reaction was to flag the article. BUT when I got to the bottom of it (possibly the reason for divorce is to evade the new Biden's tax) - it is actually quite interesting.

My thoughts exactly. That's why I _love_ getting bug reports from users. The bug is right there, here's what went wrong, here's how we fix it, `git push`, deploy. Everyone's lives just got better. LOVE IT.

It's not just Google, Microsoft, Twitter and Facebook too. Our website was recently flagged by Facebook's ML [1], and the only way to "unban" it was to find ways to contact a human being inside. PS. Twitter still does no

Yes, my knee jerk reaction was just like yours. But... think of this as new Adobe Flash. Or a new MS Silverlight. Some people use it, mostly for privately hosted local apps. Most people won't. PS. And then Google will probably kill it

Here's an interesting angle: Shopify apps literally make money for Shopify even without the 20%. Since these apps are mostly marketing (upsells, abandoned cart reminders, upgrades etc), they drive sellers' revenue = they literally

Yes, they sure do have a motive - to send spam via a 3rd party service. Like in this case (GitLab) - create a fake "issue" with spammy links in it and then "notify" thousands of users. In our case - we are a helpdesk tic

We are a small SaaS vendor and fighting spam is, like, 20% of the technical work that we do. Bad actors register trial accounts and then reverse engineer your front-end and forge millions of requests. Just 2 days ago we had a very similar i

Well, actually, Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code (surprisingly) both have very nice dark themes. And they're both Microsoft products. PS. In fact, it's more likely it was the Github's old design team, not MS.
