I think it make sense to have a oAuth service for it. Like you said, it standard and straight forward. If you will have third party consume your users API you won't have to put too much effort into coming up with a different scheme.

google and TDAmeritrade authenticate their 1st party services with oAuth and it logically makes sense to me.

I think it's healthy to have a diverse set of mid and upper market companies. Chinese companies will ultimately buy their way into up market businesses. One antidote that I can readily think of is the acquisition of the street wear company Bape buy a the Chinese/Hong Kong manufacturer I.T Group. Forbes magazine is another company that was acquired by a Chinese company.

Furthermore, Hong Kong has some international appeal and most people think of it as a nation separate from China. In reality, companies from China incorporate in HK to escape the aurora of being a Chinese compnay

I've never dealt with Okta support but my support issue with Auth0 was top notch.

However, their 'Rules' system for hooking into the Auth request is abstracted at the Auth0 account level rather than the individual app level. That makes it too easy to accidentally screw up all of the apps on an account.

Wow, I would not have guessed that Auth0 was that valuable. Part of the premium must be to keep it out of the hands of a worthy competitor.

If Tesla doesn't come up with a diplomatic way of allowing third-party repair they will be the company that forces regulators to add regulation. It's one thing to be out of a personal computing device due to vendor policy but when enough people get burned by a bricked car then all hell will break loose.

There is a link to https://fydeos.com/ at the bottom of the page. Fydeos is a friend project.

This sounds like double speak. Can you elaborate?

Naively it seems like the problem that will make progress at both ends with the right spark. As I image it, soon enough someone else will have already convinced part of your network to make the move.

People, in general, don't have a qualm about installing another app when it's recommended by someone they trust.

Strangely enough my ad blocker had been disabled and I didn't get any ads for Ozonetel. Perhaps it's because I'm searching from Philippines.

The result can be split two ways. Either the advertiser wasted money on a click because the consumer will seek out the true XYZ. Or the consumer will be satisfied with what they've clicked and choose to buy it.

Hopefully the metrics show that the latter is mostly happening.

It's only fraud if the advertiser counterfeits XYZ's brand on their website.

It probably works similar to an affiliate program but for credit/debit cards. I'd imagine that Mastercard benefits from Treecard encouraging their members/customers to make purchases using Mastercard's network.

It doesn't seem like it a license to publish that's being controlled. It sounds more akin to a business license to collect money in app. The article alludes to ad supported games still being eligible for publication. This likely has something to do capital flight controls in China.

“However, this major pivot to only accepting paid games that have a game license, coupled with China’s extremely low number of foreign game licenses approved this year, will probably lead more game developers to switch to an ad-supported model for their Chinese versions,”

Through an altruistic lens this seems like a good idea. But realistically economy driven by quarterly reports I see this devolving into a dystopian tail really quickly.

I don't think Land Rover can get it done. However Apple and/or Tesla might have the fandom to pull something like this off.

UK is no longer under the GDPR right?

What echo chamber was the guy/gal behind this living in? Nothing about this sounds like a good idea to increase the value of the brand.

Sad that this thought pattern is a thing. I was also too paranoid to sign in with Spotify.

Can you expand upon you thought? How do each of these acquisition make a case for the acquirer tending towards a monopoly?

It seems Boston Dyanmics is a solution looking for a problem. It can be a great company but it's going to take a long investment by Hyundai. It's been in the hands of some huge companies and none of them have been able to squeeze a profit out of it.

Right, the foreign demand is not going away. I only see it causing the price to increase. But sure enough, there will be organized chrime getting dope to where it needs to be.

I believe he/she means that the way you practice is the way you play.

If you put your best effort into the things that "do not matter" (e.g. hobby, open source work) then the discipline will show in the external displays of your work (products and services).

Sorry, it was me guys. I was just clone the quiche repo and I accidentally brought down the whole system.

It must be getting hugged too death at the moment.

I'm curious if the oAuth flow requested a specific scope to have permission to remove the user from their Ads account. If so, did Facebook make it clear that the permission was be requested.

I must say that it was a pretty clever scheme.

me = ditto - (best shape of my life)

That is squarely where the problem lies. There are good open source developers out there as evidenced by the great Github projects. There are also good designers out there such as those that maintain Dribbble.com profiles. What keeps them from collaborating to produce top notch projects?

Thanks for sharing Tantacrul video. He's quite an entertaining bloke!

"And even when it comes to the cloud, the choice for startups is usually between AWS and Google Cloud Platform. Microsoft is out-of-sight and out-of-mind."

I thought Azure was number two in the Cloud-as-a-service game.

Indeed, it does require a gov't ID to delete you profile. Triplebyte is starting to look like Keyser Soze here :)

This doesn't seem to work. I requested to delete my profile but I didn't get a confirmation email. However, when I requested to make my profile invisible I immediately received an email confirmation.

I'm curious about why this post appears to be on it way to being flagged off of the home page. It's valuable information and is likely very relevant to the HN community. Thanks for the heads up @winston_smith.

Tranferwise makes me cringe. I fell for the hype. I failed to do research and fell into the same tarpit that even a cursory glance would have revealed.

They withdrew my funds. Promised a transfer date by the following date. Three days pass and the suddenly lock me out of my account and asked for a bunch of documents to complete the transfer.

This sounds like an interesting statement. What are the main differences in lending money at nation scale vs. local bank (or payday loan)? We can agree that both lenders are in it to improve their economical/financial stance? Beyond possible political levers, I can't think of how they are that much different.
