People are flooding robinhood competitors

Informing your customers is one thing. Blocking them in "their" own interest is a ridiculous overstep. We make platforms and tools to empower users, not to force them down whatever path we deem best for them.

What a complete spit in the face of their users. If you work at robinhood, take a look at your company values and know that they are willing to wipe out any of those during investor pressure.

Works for me
bytematic··on What’s the Point of Gigabit Broadband?
I just do it for the low latency. It's incredible how quick requests are made and answered.
bytematic··on The Nintendo Switch uses my open source code
Super happy for him. This is one of the best parts about programming, how easy it is to share and interop things. That is beautiful
bytematic··on Affirm Public S-1 Filing
Almost every time (in the last couple years) I've seen pay-over-time it is no extra cost to the customer. It's either $100 or 5 installments of $20.

That seems to be what everyone was wondering about when they laid off a large portion of their web teams
bytematic··on DoorDash S-1
Never order just 1 thing if you are getting delivery. That will never make sense for delivery of any item. Same applies for grocery.
bytematic··on DoorDash S-1
Interesting, I've never seen food markups. That might be specific to a restaurant/location/app
bytematic··on DoorDash S-1
These are in almost every S1. "in the event of the end-of-the-world we may have issues generating revenue"
bytematic··on DoorDash S-1
That's what I've always thought as well, but the financials look to be pretty good here. The CEO states their main differentiator is their culture so I wonder what the actual landscape looks like
bytematic··on I reverse engineered McDonalds’ internal API
Red/green are pretty common status colors. What would you suggest, perhaps different shapes?
bytematic··on How Discord Won
They won because it was free to make servers. All the other competitors you had to purchase from some hosting solution or run it on a server, not a lot of gamers can do this
bytematic··on Microsoft to acquire ZeniMax Media and Bethesda Softworks for $7.5B
Technology will catch up. Also inputs will be pre-processed and rendered so latency can be minimized.

bytematic··on RBS, Ruby’s new type signature language
I just want typescript for ruby. That simple
bytematic··on RBS, Ruby’s new type signature language
I've been using typescript for a few years now and to be honest I almost never rely on the compilation errors. I just use the built in Jetbrains IDE completion, autosuggestion, and navigation to make it work.
bytematic··on Tour of Rust
Why does the compile debug information get printed to the standard error area?
bytematic··on MIT and Harvard file suit against new ICE regulations
What is the point of spending time and money to send these students home?

bytematic··on Shopify Goes Digital by Default
Am I the only one who enjoys my commute? To be fair, I bike or take the bus in the winter, but I listen to audiobooks, podcasts, music, and get a good amount of exercise.
bytematic··on Shopify Goes Digital by Default
Yeah, I concentrate a lot better at an office. I hate being in my home all day every day. The little distractions are what make me love a job, some of my best memories are the random interactions and happenings with my coworkers

Alan Watts has a ton of stuff on this
bytematic··on Ask HN: Is your company sticking to on-premise servers? Why?
I'm super curious how you scale these Minecraft servers. I have a 60$ google cloud instance and it can barely handle 3 players with a few mods without lagging a few times per hour.
bytematic··on Why is the offical Java website so outdated?
My friend had to download java last weekend and he couldn't find the website. I kept telling him to google java download but he thought it was a scam. I can't blame him.
