apokusinon Withdrawals from BlockFi continue to be paused

US-based crypto exchange BlockFi pauses withdrawals.

Quote: > We are shocked and dismayed by the news regarding FTX and Alameda. We, like the rest of the world, found out about this situation through Twitter. Given the lack of clarity on the status of FTX.com, FTX US and Alameda, we are not able to operate business as usual.

apokusinon Coda, a “next-generation spreadsheet” – from rows and columns to custom apps

I've begun to use the beta and see a lot of value.

One point of concern (and PSA): After creating a document, my browser blocked a CoinHive miner. As far as I know, there isn't a "best practice" pattern for passively mining, but personally, I like to opt-in to this sort of thing.

apokusinon Show HN: Manage your cost of app subscriptions in one place

Great job! Unubo is an awesome interface for a potentially useful product!

A few notes: - Github permissions seem excessive. You require: - Personal user date: full access - Repos: public and private - Delete repos - Read and write Gists - Access to all available organization - Dropbox requires access to all my files rather than just an App folder (or a limited scope) - All of the above for Trello

I haven't tested the other apps, but I hope you can understand why I'm not willing to provide full read/write access to my code, Dropbox files and project management to a service that tracks their monthly bills. (Perhaps these are required to receive accounting info?)

Sadly these concerns have prevented me from tracking any apps as this level of access seems disproportional for the purpose of the tool.

apokusinon Charge, a phone company with features for nerds

apokusinon The beginners guide to starting web development

You should touch up on Sublime's Package Installer. With it, it completely trumps Coda (with exception to the CSS GUI).

He mentions "we are not alone" twice. Clearly he's telling us that there are aliens on the moon.

apokusinon A real-time collaborative HTML/CSS editor

Is this open-sourced? I'd like to fork this and use internally for workflow improvement.

apokusinon 99¢ - Apple FaceTime App - Really?

Indeed. I don't see why they need to charge even 99¢ for it. They made that in the margins of the original products that are capable of running the app.
