vesh··on Analytics suggest 96% of users leave app tracking disabled in iOS 14.5
Yes the wording is confusing. If you turn it off it will block all apps from being able to track you without prompting. https://9to5mac.com/2021/04/26/allow-block-iphone-app-tracki...

vesh··on Caste discrimination in some of Silicon Valley's richest tech companies
A system of oppression that benefits some at the cost of others isn’t tradition. If it somehow seems that the system is accepted by those oppressed it is simply because of not being able to make meaningful change for generations.
vesh··on For years, Intel sat on its CPU monopoly and now the tide turns against them
Absolutely, better performance per watt means longer battery life. Windows already supports ARM. Microsoft doesn't really have a choice here but to improve support for ARM. Office on Mac seems like is going to be ready for Apple Silicon if that effort also helps Office on Windows ARM then they are half way there.

vesh··on Mobius – .NET runtime running on .NET Core
This is just the .Net runtime most application will probably depend on the .net framework libraries so not really.
vesh··on YC Interviews in India
I don't have any resentment towards English. The city has been around for as long as the English language and nobody local never called it with the anglicized name if anything it would be more of a correction.

vesh··on USCIS Proposes Rule to Welcome International Entrepreneurs
What about using growth, revenue and profitability as a factor? Wouldn't that provide a similar data point to make the decision.
vesh··on USCIS Proposes Rule to Welcome International Entrepreneurs
Does anyone know where and how the public can provide their comments? I cannot find a link on the page. Bootstrapped startups with no outside investments wouldn't be eligible based on this criteria.
vesh··on Ask HN: How was your experience using parse.com?
I have been using Parse for a couple of years now. Some of my clients are currently on it and is being used in production. The most compelling part of the offering is a well thought out SDK which helps in time to market by reducing the development time. Parse has a lot of potential but unfortunately they will need improve in some areas pretty soon. The first issue is documentation, it is bad. What makes it worse is not being able to build a large enough developer community around the product. If Parse would only listen to the developers using their platform, take constructive feedback and improve their offering it will go long way. The response from Parse when things are bought to attention is much to be desired. Part of the problem is Parse needs to solve is to partner with companies/developers to help out their customers with the common issues that people face when using their platform and concentrate on the real issues of the platform. This should also help them with their support as well, which is bad even for paying customers. I really think Parse can learn from companies before them like Microsoft, Salesforce, Apple on how to go about building a strong developer community around a platform. I also think Parse can help a wider range of customers, like make a serious play in the enterprise market if these issues are looked into.
vesh··on Show HN: Tiempo – The fastest way to track time and get paid
I currently use Harvest for time tracking, creating invoices and sending it out. It would be nice to see a list of features and costs without signing up. It looks like time tracking, approval is free to use. Connecting to Quickbooks costs 10$/month. To create and send invoices you have to choose to receive payments through Tiempo, which will cost 3.9% of the invoice amount. Customers get an option to pay by credit card.

I can see this simplifies the process for a lot of people. Being able to send invoices without using the payment service is personally a deal breaker as it would be way higher than the 19$ I currently pay.
