e40··on Chase to become new issuer of Apple Card
Thanks for the clarification. I had forgotten the distinction.
e40··on Gmail is entering the Gemini Era
No mention of "Workspace" and I assume the users of that product will have controls over this. Anyone know what/where they are?
e40··on Ask HN: Any Microsoft employees/devs here? What's happening to Microsoft?
Just the other day had to update our offering on the Azure marketplace. It had been a while. What a complete shitshow. From getting logged it (!!!!) to figuring out the new permissions needed to publish. The ui/ux was astoundingly horrible. It blows me away anyone uses this shite.
e40··on Chase to become new issuer of Apple Card
Bought many things from Apple at 0 interest.
e40··on Chase to become new issuer of Apple Card
Re the Amazon card, it used to be offered through Synchrony Bank (I think I got the name right). I had a lot of weird issues with them and their customer service was very difficult to get ahold of and were terrible once you did. I ended up canceling the card.
e40··on I changed my personality in six weeks
Can you stop tomorrow? If so, then no. If you make excuses why you can’t or shouldn’t, or when you try you have physical or psychological problems, then yes.

e40··on Last Year on My Mac: Look Back in Disbelief
I 100% agree with OPs take, though I don't really mind it as much as he does. I do hope the changes will be rolled back in 27, or at least controls given to us that allow us to roll back changes.
e40··on Building a macOS app to know when my Mac is thermal throttling
He could get notarization and code signing for free if he puts it into Homebrew. I would love to get it via that distribution mechanism.
e40··on The battle to stop clever people betting
This isn’t about an even playing field. It’s about spending too much money on gambling.
e40··on CEO of health care software company sentenced for $1B fraud conspiracy
This is actually the answer.

1. Arrest and convict scammer

2. Scammer pays bribe from ill gotten gains

3. POTUS profits and scammer let out of jail

e40··on It's Always TCP_NODELAY
Came here thinking the same thing...
e40··on Flock Exposed Its AI-Powered Cameras to the Internet. We Tracked Ourselves
Him reading the Flock statement on a Flock camera open on the internet was just so good. I love and support Benn Jordan.
e40··on Wall Street ruined the Roomba and then blamed Lina Khan
"I don't care if they spy on my, I have nothing to hide."
e40··on Wall Street ruined the Roomba and then blamed Lina Khan
Are there privacy issues with the data being exfiltrated?
e40··on John Varley has died
I loved that book (or did I read the short story? ... don't remember), and the movie was actually OK. Way better than the score on iMDB.
e40··on Heart and Kidney Diseases and Type 2 Diabetes May Be One Ailment
What does metformin have to do with it? I'm not obese, but I'm on metformin.
e40··on Venezuela explained in 10 maps and charts
The similarities with Iraq are insane

The Daily Show segment on comparing them.

e40··on Rob Reiner has died
> Few profession I have more respect for than journalists and police.

I’m with you on journalists, but the police have so many bad apples that I think the profession itself attracts the wrong kind of people.

e40··on Shai-Hulud compromised a dev machine and raided GitHub org access: a post-mortem
Yeah, I thought that was the main reason to use pnpm. Very confused.
e40··on Humans rank above meerkats but below beavers in monogamy league table
doi?
e40··on The ultra-rich are claiming an increasing share of global wealth
> Unless you can prove otherwise, the default assumption needs to be that consolidation of wealth will lead to all those privileges being erased.

And the trend has already started. The latest budget big will make healthcare inaccessible to mire Americans.

e40··on EFF launches Age Verification Hub
It could be added at the router? The child's computer could be identified and this header added, in a MITM situation... but, maybe that would be easy to defeat, by replacing the cert on the client? Not my area of expertise... really just asking...
e40··on The Anatomy of a macOS App
Did you install it on the same machine or a different one?

I was always able to install immediately on the same machine.

e40··on The Anatomy of a macOS App
Not true for us. We EV cert sign (the more expensive one) and my CEO ( the only one left that uses Windows) had this very problem. Apparently the first time a newly signed binary is run it can take up to 15 minutes for defender to allow it. First time I saw this, it was really annoying and confusing.
e40··on Wolfram Compute Services
Mathmatica has been around since the 80s, Jupyter how long? Far leas.
e40··on Molly: An Improved Signal App
I have messages from a deceased friend. I find it comforting to read them from time to time.
e40··on Stopping bad guys from using my open source project (feedback wanted)
I read that Star Wars still hasn’t turned a profit. This is only slightly in jest.
e40··on Molly: An Improved Signal App
The comment I replied to was providing annecdata about a bad experience. I was doing the opposite, to balance.

Your portrayal of my comment is not even close.

e40··on Stellantis Is Spamming Owners' Screens with Pop-Up Ads for New Car Discounts
What would be the point of collecting the data and then doing nothing with it??
