New account & misinformation?

> if you use this service PillPack and Amazon Employees have full access to your entire prescription history

That's not what the article you linked says

> Any prescription / healthcare info you give them will be sold back to SureScripts and used to sell you more garbage from Amazon ;)

That's not what the article you linked says

> Atlassian because they don’t take POs

To me that sounds like Atlassian is leaving a lot of money on the table

> because most people are driving the Web, and the only way to make the Web bearable is to load yourself up with huge toolchains.

Are you talking about browser app toolchains? If so, I disagree. HTML and CSS are all you need, with some vanilla JS. For example, HN users love the fact that it’s fast and responsive. It doesn’t use huge toolchains of React or whatever

Using huge tool chains is making the internet slower and more painful for devs & users.

But if you’re talking about dev tool chains for templating, I follow the “less is more” here too. Some templating tools can speed a dev up, but learning a dozen tools is really a waste of time

>> essentially free

Well Google is going to charge you $240 annually for a TB of storage now.

> Anil Sabharwal, Google Photos’ then-head, said in a blog post when the service launched in 2015. “And when we say a lifetime of memories, we really mean it.”

Most of Google’s product strategy has been bait & switch, and I saythat with all due to respect to the engineers. It’s the leaders who make these decisions

> This was the original ”fake news”.

No, that is a narrow view of history. The history of propaganda, yellow journalism, sensationalism and fake news has a long and storied history beyond today's talking heads

Some feedback: the 2 second splash thing before the webpage loads is an obtrusive experience to your users

Hosting yourself is better than Google reading and disabling your account because you used a couple words that might violate it's TOS. I can't imagine a researcher trying to write a book in Google Docs about 1960's civil rights without tripping Google's abuse engines. It is creepy

This is truly incredible to me.

You're drawing a conclusion that isn't there. The AG is not never said they reviewed Tether's books and it was indeed 1:1

I get it, thanks. Instead, Could you write about them, rather than the code? I'm picturing lessons learned, don't try ABC it's a waste of time, and so on..

> site’s anti-abuse systems, many of which Bell and Gackle have written themselves.

That sounds interesting! How were these built? In the same Arc language? Any chance this can be open sourced?

This is much more interesting than the title portrays. I didn't know what S3 was, but the implications are serious

This is what I came here to find. Thanks!

I read the post but didn’t understand why they had to walk. Why did they not get their $800k back?

0/5 stars : "delivery was late." are the reviews that really annoys me.

It becomes a tax dodge only when you renounce your US citizenship, which some millionaires have done already, such as Eduardo Saverin

Seems like a simple enough landing page though. Discord server for tracking when people got blocked and you reach the 100-person count (is that an actual EU court requirement?)

What billion dollar industry is built on top of faker.js?

Why is it so hard to source seeds for these heirlooms?

Maybe we can first test these secure PODs with data a bit less sensitive than NHS data? Then fix the problems before adding in my person’s health data

You did not define a conflict or the unintended consequence here

Wouldn't you want the word 'encryption' to be in the description, so there is no evil solicitor trying to argue about what 'secrets' meant. Or 'the right to confidentiality whenever, where-ever, and with whomever the person pleases'

What about proposing encryption as an EU human right? Has that been attempted?

> Pretty much all constitutional democracies over the last 150 years looked at the US Constitution and said “yeah that part doesnt make sense scratch that, patch this, keep the rest”.

Where can I read more about this in short-form (not a college Politics textbook).

GAAP isn’t a law though . So how does this law capable of handling this scenario?

We know Kings of England have committed murders. We know dictators have committed atrocities. We know Germany attempted to get Mexico to attack the US. Should we not talk about those things just because they haven’t been tried in court? No, that would be crazy. We should talk about those things because they did happen and there is evidence.

And there is evidence in this scenario too, is there not?

They have access to the DB users. You can craft a new user & password-hash pair and insert it into the DB to create your own Wordpress user to manage on their behalf, or the lazy way is to just update the user’s password hash with your own. Then when you fix the issue, revert it. Worked for me years ago, not sure if something fundamental changed

> Those charges were dropped

Dropping charges doesn't mean it's not true, just that the prosecutor did not want to pursue the case, in light of other prosecution available.

> Most academic research is done by underpaid PhD and postdoc students for the love of science

I’d hardly call the graduate papers coming out of academia equivalent to the level of innovation & creativity of what the engineers above described. Perhaps they’re both underpaid, but one is certainly more amazing. Hardly the same.
