i'm jealous that their washing machine has an API. I just used a 15A rated smart switch that has an espressif chip under the hood and flashed it so it tells me when the washing machine stops pulling current - that means it's done!

yes its not the emissions during use it's the emissions from manufacturing. a car might last a decade. the scooter lasts a few months and you have to keep making them at scale

isnt code generation just smarter copypasta? since there will be no difference in complexity during runtime i feel like it's equivalent, just maybe more powerful what i mean is that you have complexity in your existing setup too... its

your choice here is that you dont have to drive for rideshare, knowing that you don't want dogs in the car. because the ability to choose goes both ways. and because the industry is unregulated, the company isn't required to do an

pretty overstated title but i guess it did catch my attention so there's that. anyways it is a nice thorough writeup of things that are different about golang. don't think they are particularly "darker" or bad or anythin

i'm curious if allocating a memory ballast would have helped discord in this case? a one line patch in main() with something like ballast := make([]byte, 10<<30) might help their GC spikes, since garbage collection would only tri

agreed on #1 i think for 2, you've identified why it's a little iffy... yes if you're out in public you should have no expectation of privacy. however the context of where you are matters, and the frame of why the police is t

I see a couple gray areas: 1) when people buy a doorbell cam they may not expect it to be used by the police in unrelated investigation (not a crime actively committed against the owner of the camera) 2) motive for investigation of a crime

m1 macbooks seem to be universally loved by developers and are leaps and bounds better than anything previously on the market. i'm so happy for the team at apple, especially given that not so long ago, many of us really really hated th

look you're welcome to your opinion, but by looking at longevity of memes on the internet and all the facts from financial reports, the dream's dead.

i partially agree with you. robinhood is ran by rich guys who make money when people use the app - regardless if the traders make money or not. and i agree that index funds are a great way to get exposure to the long term growth of the econ

i have a vanguard account with most of my investments, with like 10% in robinhood for gambling. the way i think about it is vanguard works fine (theres some bugs but not end of the world). but it is not optimized for timed trades. it works

i agree, but given the number of new users onboarding to robinhood, it's very possible that they don't have enough liquidity to cover the borrowed money, even if it is slated to be 100% by cash in 2 days

by kbar13 6y ago
sure thanks for the explanation. at the end of the day the user is trading with borrowed money, which is the problem.

the instant availability of funds likely was a growth decision for better on boarding UX. imagine getting a referral from a friend who said hey get in on this stock, installing the app, and having to wait 2-5 business days for ACH to clear.

by kbar13 6y ago

mass deletion of negative reviews is automatic and has been done before if it looks like spam / brigading (which this probably looks like). i think it's a reasonable explanation. https://android-developers.googleblog.co
