ohmanjjj··on Launch HN: Warrant (YC S21) – Authorization and access control as a service
As a SaaS veteran I can confidently say I would never put my entire company on the line for a remote API call before any request is served. Not just latency, but also - what the heck happens if you’re gone/down? The entire business operation grinds to a halt. This is such a huge non-starter. I reviewed Sync Agent and I doubt it is much help in case of an actual outage.
ohmanjjj··on Ask HN: What's is your go to toolset for simple front end development?

ohmanjjj··on FCC Closes Robocall Loophole
I have a very successful VoIP business, why would I blow the whistle? A couple months away from finalizing our Stir Shaken certification, no need to mess things up ahead of time :)
ohmanjjj··on FCC Closes Robocall Loophole
Do you really think they will make a publish statement about this? Call them and see for yourself. There is absolutely no Stir Shaken verification of any kind other than a look up in the robocall mitigation database where each VoIP business self attests to complying with inquiries and other fcc robocall regulations. Takes 5 minutes to create such an entry for your VoIP company and nobody checks it
ohmanjjj··on FCC Closes Robocall Loophole
There is still a loophole. You get one more year if you are “facilities based”. All you need is one subscriber to whom you also provide broadband connection and you’re covered under the facilities based definition even if you have a thousand other end users over the top.

My source is that we reached out and have high level folks at each carrier saying ain’t nothing gonna change tomorrow or after.
ohmanjjj··on FCC Closes Robocall Loophole
Correct, we use all 3 for our VoIP business.
ohmanjjj··on FCC Closes Robocall Loophole
Already confirmed with them that absolutely nothing is going to happen.
ohmanjjj··on FCC Closes Robocall Loophole
This did absolutely nothing. Carriers like Bandwidth, Commio, Telnyx don’t enforce this and just complete their customers calls as if nothing ever happened.

Young infant blood
ohmanjjj··on We don’t use a staging environment
I’ve been shipping software for over two decades, built multiple successful SaaS companies, and have never in my life written a single unit test.
ohmanjjj··on Python 3 Types in the Wild
After many years of writing Python code, I just can’t stand the distraction and messiness that Types results in and the appearance of clutter and unnecessary characters and symbols to otherwise neat code.
ohmanjjj··on I am the healthiest person I know, and I got cancer
Exactly. I see people doing keto on processed factory farmed bacon and thinking they are eating healthy.

If one can’t afford $15 for unlimited access to uninterrupted education, they have their priorities elsewhere.
ohmanjjj··on Vanced: YouTube adblocker for Android
If someone can’t afford $15 for Premium, they likely shouldn’t be wasting their time watching videos to begin with, and instead focus their time and effort on making a living.
ohmanjjj··on I have never read a business plan or balance sheet
Maybe if I had written unit tests my companies would also sell for over a billion
