/s Helpfully, Stripe provides a path for exactly this https://stripe.com/docs/crypto/overview

Don't forget to mail them the floppies to load up and send back :-)

More here on the system Stripe uses for their docs: https://stripe.com/blog/markdoc

They open-sourced parts of it here: https://markdoc.dev/

HN discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32835751

Correct! From the site https://bjoernkarmann.dk/project/paragraphica

“ The star-nosed mole, which lives and hunts underground, finds light useless. Consequently, it has evolved to perceive the world through its finger-like antennae, granting it an unusual and intelligent way of "seeing." This amazing animal became the perfect metaphor and inspiration for how empathizing with other intelligences and the way they perceive the world can be nearly impossible to imagine from a human perspective.”

Would love to see both Microsoft (for exchange especially, but also their free accounts) and Apple implement JMAP. That said, I know they don't have many incentives to do so and that makes me sad.

From the article: "...Van Horn, fifteen miles to Lobo’s north, the town that houses Blue Origin’s launch site."

Original article on ProPublica: https://www.propublica.org/article/colorado-wildfires-contro...

He mentions in the video that it's not tethered; simply standalone. Not sure how that works as far as the phone call demo though...

I fully expected a sharp criticism of fast food menu design rather than UI design. Only one?

Neat youtube video about the engineering behind it as well :-)

This whole video is interesting, including the intermissions (A message from Industry to You...)

Sorry about that! Will do next time :-)

Beyond which platform it's on, the article describes some of the developer's experiences as a long-time diabetic and which gaps he saw in the market etc so may still be interesting to people who are not iOS users, but I get what you're saying.

Disclaimer: I'm the OP, but not the app creator.

I posted this to HN because I've had T1D for 30 years (since I was 8) and been a heavy tech enthusiast for nearly that amount of time. It's not often that I see those worlds collide and thought others would be interested not only in the app itself, but part of the personal story behind the developer.

To address some of the comments about the app's functionality ands why it's compelling, here's why I like it and am giving it a shot:

- I use a CGM (Dexcom G6) which reports info to HealthKit (although on a 3-hour delay, don't get me started)

- I'm an Apple Watch user who tracks both sleep and workouts

- This app provides a simple way to retroactively see what my BG was doing during both sleep and workouts. Yes, you can get this information through other solutions or by time matching against a more detailed graph, but this app provides a much easier, lightweight way to do it IMO.

- I've played with solutions like nightscout, but found them overall to be tricky to set up and maintain and don't think they are good solutions for the average person. I'll probably take another look as a weekend project since it's been a while.

- Glooko, Tidepool (which I'm familiar with) and many other apps have excellent reports, but IMO are still fairly heavyweight for what I am looking to get.

Overall, I think that this is a great start for an app and is made by a solo, indie, T1D developer who is actively soliciting feedback.

I support them in those pursuits :-)

This lead me to https://www.data-liberation-project.org/ which looks pretty great.

Parroting a lot of other comments but in short:

  * Really neat
  * Makes me anxious; perhaps an option for one without seconds?

I believe they do offer payments, although haven't dug into difficulty of setup. https://cal.com/resources/feature/payments

(Unfortunately) related: they were rejected initially: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34444514

Good news: It looks like that's since been resolved shortly after Gruber's post. https://mastodon.social/@icecubesapp@mastodon.cloud/10971756...

I know some people do outdoor burning in rural settings to address debris, etc. Curious now if there is a cleaner way to burn that debris other than an open fire.

Latest issue talks about 5 year anniversary: https://www.californiasun.co/newsletter/california-calculate...

Was thinking this too; vampires will soon be free to come "out of the coffin" :-)

Thanks!

Looks like the original Bloomberg article is the most trafficked post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33496808

Would something like Column [0] be a solution here in regards to it being a Wells Fargo problem?

I don't know that the tl;dr is "blockchain bad". What I took from it is that blockchain-based money movement shouldn't get special treatment compared to other ways to move money in regards to regulations (KYC, enforcement, etc.)

Agreed; I especially liked the nuanced discussion in the comment here: https://gabrielkahane.substack.com/p/in-defense-of-friction/...

  we integrate with FED over some... interesting protocols.

Would love to know more!

Looks like Paystack is available in South Africa and might be worth checking out if you haven't already :-)

I remember asking for "the internet" one Christmas growing up and we ended up getting Compuserve. I recall learning the various local numbers you could dial into and our email address which was a randomly assigned number @compuserve.com.

Glad they took the time to preserve some of this stuff!

It would be great to see Slack put some work in here, but could someone make an app (or Slackbot) to enforce/offer guidance?

I know Slack culture can be hugely variable over time, especially for high-growth companies so there definitely needs to be some flexibility.
