fallingmeat··on Ask HN: Anyone making a living from a paid API?
Know a guy who setup themselves as a cert authority for STIR/SHAKEN and pretty much is an almost completed automated system; just issues certs they generate with a small hardware device.

fallingmeat··on Boeing whistleblower: MAX 9 production line has "enormous volume of defects"
Came here to upvote this idea. Many of you probably relate to the under-informed or less experienced junior engineer who gets dramatic at times. Did this person see something they thought was a non-conformance but actually standard operating?

fallingmeat··on Log is the "Pro" in iPhone 15 Pro
I don't know anything about photography, but curious to know what the cheapest "pro" alternative is. The phone is now $1200! This feature is cool, but if you wanted that feature, is it cheaper in a purpose-built device?
