We offer a no data retention option for all teams. If a business wants to try us out for free I’m happy to set something up.
We also offer our application self-hosted/on-premise/cloud-premise. We have single-tenant (separate data) options as well. These options have a higher deployment cost so they may not make sense for teams under 10.

Probably the only stuff people Hacker News care for.
After explaining that we didn't need any fancy features, just OIDC+SAML sign-in they proposed a number that was a little over $1/user/month ($30,000 a year for 2500 seats). This was after multiple rounds of back-and-forth, sitting through custom decks and sales pitches around "you aren't paying for SSO, you are paying for an increase in conversion and revenue".
Firebase is self serve for ... $0.015/user/month (or $450/year for the same 2500 seats)
1. Stylistically consistent for things like format, naming, control and logic flow
2. QA: linted, unit tested, code reviewed
3. Design: Modular, scalable, future proof, secure, stable, reliable, performant etc.
4. High adoption implies testing/verification of above design attributes
5. Follows (or establishes) best established practices for interfacing with platform APIs etc.
6. Keeping complexity low enough that a junior engineers can contribute
7. Descriptive commit messages
etc. etc.

This is really a killer feature for me as an outdoor enthusiast who hangs out in places with no reception every other weekend. I'm also a weight weenie and really care about how heavy the stuff I carry is. I'm going to keep an eye on how well this works in the field for sure.
I've been considering a Garmin InReach Mini, its roughly $350 for the device and $300 for a satellite subscription for 2 years.
If the satellite messing works well, this phone just added $650 worth of value for me on top of a regular iPhone. Basically, it doesn't matter how much a continued subscription will cost after year two. I'd be completely happy to buy a new phone in two years just for this one feature.
I think the fact that Coinbase does not deny that their employee acted wrongly is a good thing.
Their stance is that cryptocurrencies aren't securities to avoid ("unfair") SEC regulatory capture.
Cost-wise, it doesn't make sense for individuals to host a neural-network based grammar checker, though some of the rule-based options may work. There's a future where if we can maintain some sort of Moore's law scaling we will be able to run these language models on individual computers as opposed to the cloud.
The download was posted to 4chan today, described by its unidentified source as “part one” of “an extremely poggers leak,”
1. Funds from an individual Coinbase account are transferred off of Coinbase onto another Bitcoin wallet.
2. The owner of the Coinbase account claims they were hacked.
Obviously I like the idea of Coinbase making account holders whole, but that creates a moral hazard and also incentivizes account holders to commit fraud themselves. What if I give my friend my credentials and he drains my account? On the other hand if I lost money on Coinbase I would be complaining all the way until I got my money back.
There are controls that can minimize damages but sacrifice usability (make withdrawals whitelist only etc). I think they have a "Vault" product that has multi-sig and time-delay options for users.
Reminder to use hardware multi-factor (like yubikey) if you own a lot of cryptocurrency on an exchange. An authenticator app is the next best option.
This observation isn't really in support of Bitcoin, it's more of a depressing thought that our stock markets are closer to a Keynesian beauty contest. (GME, AMC, etc).
I don't personally own stocks or real estate for cash flow purposes. I own them with the expectation that I can sell them for more money down the line.

It's not a very constructive use of time to criticize how the free market allocates resources. People are going to buy and run basketball teams, Ferraris, bitcoin mining rigs whether you yell at them or not.
Despite all of Bitcoin's shortcomings, I'm a strong believer in the technology and the protocol. If we compare it to the internet and TCP/IP it is pretty designed. In real life its not necessarily the perfect protocol that wins. Sometimes a "crappy" one gets a head start, but it's good enough, and people will patch it along the way. The network participants will also end up using the network in novel ways that were not designed for originally.
Ordered an Allergy Test kit.
Will update everyone in 5 years if it was worth it or not! :)
To the point of actions speaking louder than words, why are there people who trust Tether enough to hold it? If there is no trust there wouldn't everyone redeem and create a bank run?

One potential outcome is for cryptocurrency to behave asset wise similar to land and real estate. It is something that rewards first movers and limits social mobility. The ever increasing costs of land and home ownership (in the United States) are part of a cultural preference as well as expectation of the asset appreciation. Home/Land pricing is almost always based on location and market clearing rates as opposed to fundamentals. Bitcoin is not just Money 2.0 or Gold 2.0, its also Land 2.0.
As Bitcoin becomes more legitimized through institutional and retail investors, ecosystem + industry participants I don't see it going away. Regular people will buy into cryptocurrency with leverage. Some people will make millions of dollars, others will not or will lose money.
Any changes to network hash power, bitcoin prices and energy cost may cause miners to scale down operations and lower overall network hash. Then at a certain network hash rate it will become profitable again.
If the market believes Tether is not backed by real currency, shouldn't it be trading at a discount to USD?
My personal expectation is that the existing frontrunners, Bitcoin and Ethereum, will stabilize in price as the percentage of retail speculators decreases and the percentage of institutional investors + users increase.
His original sentence (6 months ago) was 18 months. I don't know if the extra 12 months here changes anything.
