whoops

The Figma reference strikes me as odd. You can implement an infinite canvas in plain html/css, and there’s a gazillion tools that have this feature. I get the feeling the text is written for search engines rather than HN.

On a related note, there’s no mention that the product is built using Pixi.JS, an open source 2d graphics engine.

Yes, and this is the 3rd repost in a week, this time by a brand new account.

What’s a good alternative to Stripe, that supports subscriptions, is easy to implement and has good documentation?

Another one, the MTHFR gene:

Good one :)

Those are last names.

> Haskell, Erlang, Pascal

Those are family names, correct me if I’m wrong.

My point is, I don’t recall seeing any tech product named “John”. We shouldn’t be using first names for random products regardless of gender. People somehow assume that female first names are somehow better suited as names for some software product, than male names.

It’s new in the sense that I keep noticing them more often lately.

What’s with this new fashion of using feminine names for tech products? Imagine being a woman, working in an office, and hearing your first name in random contexts. I see how that could become annoying.

The gazillion of lines of imperative C/C++ code out there that every OS runs on, are probably written by less than intelligent people.

@dang, if you can read this, would you please delete this submission.

I've found an alternative solution for my problem, so the question is not relevant anymore.

> Currently thinking about starting a company in Germany

I would advise against doing it. You will regret it at every step of the way. Save yourself a million headaches (and euros) and go to Ireland or some other EU country with more respect for entrepreneurs. In Germany you'll just end up feeding the entire endless bureaucracy network that is set up to thrive on the work of other people. Among those being:

- lawyers

- notaries

- tax consultants (this is a big one)

- IHK (useless mandatory organization that takes a piece of your cake)

- Radio and TV tax (they require a tax based on the number of locations or cars that your company operates)

> Then you have one year to liquidate. Not sure what’s difficult about it.

What is funny is that germans don’t even realize how absurd this looks for the rest of the world. Compare this to closing a company in two weeks in the United States.

> Yes, you need a tax accountant to do your taxes later […] It's normal in most countries.

What is not normal is the price tag attached to it. 1000-2000€ for a tax filing for a company with no profits (or not revenue, it’s all the same) can be called anything but normal. The reason for this is that in Germany the tax accounting prices are cartel-regulated.

The classic argument, if you can’t pay XXX$ for some bullshit someone else invented and that doesn’t belong in 21st century, then you’re business is not sustainable. IHKs exist for the sole purpose of lining their fat pockets on other people’s hard work, like other professions in Germany, notary included.

> Just because you don't need it on your own doesn't mean other founders or existing companies don't need it.

Then they should be free to hire them on their own dime.

One thing I noticed is that browser tabs each have their own process id. Would applying the policy on the main process affect each child tab process?

This is some TIL material, and looks like a really viable option.

I think you replied to the wrong person.

> You can't convert about 40 million households [1] in a year or two.

Who's talking about a year or two? Germany has been pushing for russian gas since the 90's, against all logic.

Actually, gas heating can _easily_ be replaced with heat pumps assuming cheap electricity is provided.

So you really can’t see how a corrupt government can hinder the development of alternative energy sources in favor of dirty deals from which they profit themselves?

> should be balanced with omega3

Sources high in omega 6 are also high in omega 3.

> They also can go rancid more easily

More easily than what for example?

> They need lots of healthy fat

Hence seeds. Best source of healthy fats.

I don’t know who Max Goldt is, nor why someone should care what his opinion on Bild is. But I would like people to critique the actual content of the article, instead of resorting to ad-hominem attacks on sources they dislike.

Yes, Bild is a tabloid, but I’ve seen this strategy employed even on more “reputable” sources, like Spiegel for example.

Also, knowing how bureaucratic Europe is, I can totally see myself having a warranty claim rejected because of a name mismatch.

The short version is that Google gave up on Germany because of the mass phenomenon of people requesting to have images their property blurred. So Google decided that Germany is not worth the effort. Even the existing images haven’t been updated in more than 10 years. As far as I know it’s not about the laws anymore, as the courts have settled the debate a while ago.

In Germany they mostly buy to rent out and I’m sure it’s happening in other places as well.
