Didn't realise this had already been shared, other discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27718529

I'm assuming there's just a licensing server keeping track of each license key and it's purchase date along with each versions release date.

I don't see any need for encoding this data within the license key

Seems to be missing Australia, I was curious to see what data had been leaked about me, since it seems to vary significantly.

I'm having trouble defining exactly how to phrase what I'm after.

Basically it's for a large collection of sensors in the field which require data to be routinely manually validated and modified

I'm in the same boat here, at least on Android alternatives such as F-Droid exist, however I'm concerned about the repercussions for MDM, as in our case (intune) we go through the Play store.

My largest concern is if Apple follows suit, which could lead to large problems with our employees who use iPhones.

Please do be aware, an unsubscribe button or instructions on how to is a legal requirement in many areas

As someone who has convinced others to move to the bank so they can use PayID, the fact it's so quick is definitely something to celebrate since most people will be hesitant to move if the process is long.

In the everyday experience of the app there's very little of those animations, especially routine processes (eg transfering) the whole experience feels quite snappy

I've been with Up as my primary bank for almost 2 years now, overall it's been a very satisfying experience and I've enjoyed watching the features grow (splitting inbound salary between savers and merchant categorisation and statistics are my favorites).

They've also launched a (read only) API which is exciting, as according to their (very nice and in depth) road map it will become more fully featured in future.

I've managed to bring a few friends to the platform which all have enjoyed it as well.

There's also some pretty good blog posts on the background technology, which are always fascinating to read.

I got beatswoman.com which is certainly concerning

Looks like it's back:

"The IP NOC with the assistance of the Operations Engineering team confirmed a routing issue to be preventing BGP sessions from establishing correctly. A configuration adjustment was deployed at a high level, and sessions began to re-establish with stability. As the change propagates through the affected devices, service affecting alarms continue to clear"

I worked on a project powering Hikvision cameras over solar and a big battery, I don't know the specs of the panel but I know it can be done.

It's using IPTimelapse to grab photos and generate time-lapses (however we've found the software to be buggy, and we're gonna move to ffmpeg for time-lapses and probably a small script to grab photos).

The website is fully staticly generated which I was happy with.

Australia and New Zealand have Osko, which is instant and supports Unicode

I really wish the archive.is / CloudFlare standoff would get resolved.

For windows I like resophnotes, the autosave is amazing and outputting plain text means I can share with my co-workers easily

Stress on most in that, I found out about the name change due to actively rolling it out to replace slack.

Charging that sort of price for just chat felt wrong, so we transitioned to keep message history.

Yeah, I share that feeling a bit, it's definitely going to make searching for things related to it difficult.

Eg, I just Googled element: "About 2,480,000,000 results (0.68 seconds)"

I couldn't find it when I initially posted this.

While I understand the change, it was definitely awkward timing given that I was championing a transition to Matrix. I've been encouraging my coworkers to download the client, and next thing I know the website has completely changed and they've removed the link to download the desktop client.

That issue has been incredibly frustrating for my company, after one of our clients bought a whole fleet of surfaces we had a period during the transition to working from home when we had about 20 requests for replacements in a few days.

With stock on short supply and Microsoft not warranty replacing most of them it was a painful time.

One thing I've always been curious about with JackBox is if it does anything when everyone's on the same LAN?

60.7 fps on the Pixel 3

I'm guessing it's Magic Transit, since thats CloudFlare's latest thing, some other tweets suggested the same.

Firefox even allows you to host your own history/tab syncing, Mozilla had very little choice besides adding these centralised features in order to even attempt to compete with chrome.

Mozilla seems to keep this very quiet, but from what I can see in this documentation it's extremely easy to implement your own sync server, with only one flag in about:config needing to be changed and minimal build dependencies.

The harder aspect comes with the Firefox accounts server, as that requires a bit more configuration and deployment.

I would be very interested in seeing someone build a docker-composer setup for this, such that it can be automatically deployed for those who don't have the time/skills to set it up.

I think there may be some more serious issues, unless the dev put a console.log statement with "DICK BUTT WAS HERE" on his own site.
