We use Liquibase with git. DB changes required for the corresponding code changes are required to be committed as a Liquibase changelog with the same branch name, and the PRs both need approval.

What we are not good about is making sure the changelogs have revert capability... some devs do it right and others not so much

This comment on the post sums up the issue quite clearly: https://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2024/03/google-demands-that-...

His commenters are saying too many "bad words" that google ads doesn't like. It's been like this for over a decade, but from my perspective the "bad word list" has grown out of control to where people can't have anything more than kintergarden conversations on pages hosting Google ads. I kind of wish they would just ban every word in the dictionary so we can move on from their control of the web.

If HN had google ads, the URL list in this spreadsheet would reach the moon.

Same. The syrup in fast food soft drinks is weak as hell. I read this article headline and said "wtf?" out loud. It makes no sense to me.

The exception is Chick-Fil-A and a small handful of chipotles.

Ah sorry, on mobile and didn't open article. Shame on me!

I half remember youtube doing this.

It's missing phone apps though. Great on on desktops.

Thanks, I've been emailing myself photos in Gmail 5-6 at a time like a caveman for the past several years... any app I tried was a non-cross-platform disaster or cost too much and had major feature bloat. This looks dead simple.

I'm going to give it another try, I had no idea the only feature I like about jira could be added to a notes app. Thanks for link

Walmart has the same shitty chinese crap dropshippers, but also has incorrect stock info and less reliable shipping / logistics. So it's a more discombobulated and less return-friendly version of amazon.

Link to sample software? The only room EQ I ever used was built into an Onkyo receiver and it was terrible at balancing the sound.

I think we are rounding another curve where the blue will start to fade away and white will be the new color

But using a Common Table Expression is a workaround, kind of like using a paper towel as a plate. Just give us a plate...

The microsecond manifest v3 is forced upon me, I will switch. And I'll be bringing my entire family tree and friends along with me!

What does everyone think about LibreWolf vs mainline FF? It reminds me of Waterfox: https://librewolf.net

He just means a kanban board to keep track of what's not done, a way to attach notes to tasks, and a backlog. He's not going to assign points to brushing teeth and packing lunches...

Teach a man to buy and you sucker him for a day. Teach a man to rent and you sucker him for a lifetime.

I use both handbrake GUI and yt-dlp GUI. Here's something they both do horribly and I would suggest for any CLI tool with a GUI wrapper: have a persistent textarea at the bottom of the GUI that shows the equivalent CLI call to the settings I select in real time. This will teach the user how your tool works and also give GUI-only users a taste of the power they could have if they used the command line.

So basically, treat the GUI as a stepping stone to helping the user build scripts/workflows around your CLI. That way you are only developing the CLI, and the GUI is just a helper app. The second you start adding features to the GUI that can't be done in the CLI, you are now maintaining two separate apps.

I'm assuming once that site got even remotely popular, it would be smacked with a cease & desist

But that's just the pessimist in me complaining about bigCo.

Sites exist like "CanIStreamIt?" for years and haven't been shut down by Netflix/Amazon, so maybe there's a legal way to go about it?

Crowdsourcing invites a fox into the henhouse. The list will get polluted with masqueraded fake recommendations by multiple "people"

I'll second this. Vermont was extremely charming when I drove back roads one summer. Another wonderful drive was the 1A up coastal New Hampshire, all the buildings and infrastructure were quaint and humble.

Every person I've spoken to who visited Colombia warned of two things: 1) There is a very large homeless/beggar population in the cities, who prey on tourists. 2) If you like to explore countries beyond typical tourism, it's safer to do this with a native Colombian that you trust, who knows the dangerous places.

Oddly when I speak to Colombians, they refute both of these warnings every time. I'm not sure if it's a cultural thing to downplay danger or discomfort, but those are #1 on my travel priority list.

> and installed apps that monitored my internet use

AKA registered my phone with dozens of residential botnet services

It absolutely had a bot problem before! What Twitter were you using?

It works again, so you can go back to 1.1.1.1

I don't see the point of this. This app has a massively disproportionate number of helpers versus those needing assistance. Personally, I've had the app installed for 3 years and never once was asked to assist anyone. Why take the risk of AI providing false info and injuring someone when there's willing and able humans at the ready?

Are there a large number of users that feel like they are wasting volunteer time with menial tasks?

They already are.

Talking up the tech of having physical plastic cards hold value, but ignoring the real-world implications, is kind of silly right? Maybe it would have been better for the author to get that out of the way first... something like "if plastic cards held a value, public figures such as celebrities and CEOs would be robbed, kidnapped, held ransom, etc due to the values of the cards, so they are not practically safe in our non-utopian world. But let's explore the tech behind it anyway"

You aren't tortured or starved. You aren't physically or psychologically abused. The food is hot and you are fed enough calories to not be hungry. You are given jobs to keep your mind busy, can shower, groom, and buy goodies with your work earnings.

If I had like 50 million stashed away and had to live like this for about 2 years in prison, then I could get out and enjoy my millions, sounds good to me... sign me up. White collar criminal judgments for corporations, high rolling individuals and politicians is a joke compared to the average joe.

But that's wrong... Do breadcrumbs get larger as you move away from the loaf? No!

That's wrong. Every minute spent interacting with a fake lead is a minute lost with a real scam victim.

The answer is to "reply" from a throwaway email account. That keeps your real email off active target lists. No spammer uses unique reply-to emails per recipient, so there's no trace back to your original email address. That requires brains for them to setup.
