throwaway3306a··on Eight Years of GraphQL
Lol... Again, the point is that unrestricted is harder than restricted to something g specifically designed with this in mind. You go make your own comparison, I compare things that matter in my work. Your Stopwatch api is probably simple, the api to generate PDFs of financial projections that I have to support is not.
throwaway3306a··on Ask HN: What's Prolog like in 2024?
Which one is as developed, as universal and as capable as Prolog with CLP and/or DCG?

Serious question, I'd like to have something that's easy to integrate with Node.js.

I'm sure they don't. That's also not the only thing you do with tracking.
throwaway3306a··on What would it take to recreate Bell Labs?
Bell Labs were never about research and development for its own sake.

How does the law differentiate that from jQuery on a CDN? The CDN is also doing some amount of tracking, and some of it is simply technically necessary. Google is actually using the Google Fonts service to track traffic.
throwaway3306a··on Ask HN: Performance of Apple Sillicon vs. ThinkPads (Or Other Linux Laptops)
I have the exact opposite experience. Anyone not using a Mac gets raised eyebrows.
throwaway3306a··on The only tourist in Moldova
Visit Transnistria for another level of amazement if you're in the area. The last Soviet republic.

Terms and conditions are not legal systems.

Why do you care about "co-founder status"? What does it even mean? It's just words. The deal is good, I'd take it.

Spikes in grids are not common in any way. But if they are happening at a particular location then yes, a generator is a standard solution for everyone, not just Tesla. There are not many ways to handle it, it's basically either a battery (very expensive and probably too small capacity and output current), a generator or shutting down.

That's why I come here instead of other places.
throwaway3306a··on Jailbreaking RabbitOS
It's interesting if it replaces a wearable or smartphone, too.
throwaway3306a··on Jailbreaking RabbitOS
What's so bad about the idea? I like the idea, this is not well executed but I am looking forward Apple making something like it - maybe by just improving the WatchOS.
throwaway3306a··on Jailbreaking RabbitOS
The whole point of the product is not having to open apps...
throwaway3306a··on Mercedes-Benz high-power charging goes large at Starbucks
But did anybody claim that? The OP said "to handle spikes". That already tells it's an unusual solution for unusual problems by itself.
throwaway3306a··on My daughter (7 years old) used HTML to make a website
Don't blame bad tools on the language.
throwaway3306a··on Mercedes-Benz high-power charging goes large at Starbucks
Yeah, but reacting with the naive assumption that there is never any backup generator is just the other extreme.
throwaway3306a··on Mercedes-Benz high-power charging goes large at Starbucks
What fud? This is a standard way to deal with grid issues.

Some people don't see electric cars / chargers as ideology that must remain absolutely pure of oil. Some are just pragmatic - it's a good car that runs cheaply, and supercharger is critical infrastructure that needs a reliable backup.

The whole point of my comment is that with REST you don't have any guarantees about the API and thus it's a much harder target to support. You're limiting it to json:api which is nice but I have never even seen a company use that. What happens in reality is that I get 20 apis from 20 teams, each of them completely different principle - and am supposed to build an universal auth layer for that. That's much more painful than in the companies that decided to go for GraphQL only.
throwaway3306a··on iDOS 3 App Review appeal rejected despite UTM PC Emulator Approval
So what about all the other services that aren't monopolies?
throwaway3306a··on iDOS 3 App Review appeal rejected despite UTM PC Emulator Approval
That is not nearly enough and has nothing to do with app stores.
throwaway3306a··on Ask HN: Can I get a ~1K loan on HN to get more investment into my R&D startup?
He's paying to be able to receive the money legally. That's normal everywhere in the world. Incorporation of a company, necessary KYC proofs for banks etc cost money.
throwaway3306a··on Ask HN: Can I get a ~1K loan on HN to get more investment into my R&D startup?
Try more banks, I'm sure you can find one.
throwaway3306a··on iDOS 3 App Review appeal rejected despite UTM PC Emulator Approval
How exactly is it unlawful? What law exactly says you have a right for appeal, or any rights to the company services at all?

I don't want to say there isn't room for improvement. But I am not aware of any current law that would mean any of this is unlawful. I'd like to be proven wrong.

throwaway3306a··on Psilocybin desynchronizes the human brain
I assume that's not any of the concealed carry countries as that would completely defeat the point of having the gun. Definitely not the case where I live.
throwaway3306a··on Five people infected as bird flu appears to go from cows to chickens to humans
But that's what we do, don't we? You don't care about someone on the other side of the world dying on the road, or the next city over. It's not even newspaper-worthy. It's just another day.
throwaway3306a··on Five people infected as bird flu appears to go from cows to chickens to humans
If you asked the virologists etc about "coronaviruses" instead of "covid", they would know.
throwaway3306a··on Ask HN: Can I get a ~1K loan on HN to get more investment into my R&D startup?
Why not approach any bank? This is such small amount they wouldn't even ask for proof of income.
throwaway3306a··on Stop Microsoft users sending 'reactions' to email by adding a postfix header
How does that even work? What if I spam you from a free sms gateway / unlimited sms plan?
throwaway3306a··on Eight Years of GraphQL
That doesn't matter at all. Handling authorization at the federation gateway point is a nightmare in any case. At least with GraphQL the scope is limited.
