Yes. My wife’s mother keeps buying crap in game using my card and I have no reasonable way of blocking her from doing so if I want to keep app purchase sharing. It’s insane. Does no one at apple have senile in laws? Or is this acceptable?

There’s poor dental hygiene and then there is nuking all the bacteria in your mouth with mouthwash. You can have perfect dental hygiene and never use mouth wash in your life. Just cause companies like selling you a product, doesn’t mean it’

In my personal, anecdotal experience... Once you get far enough in ANY sport, you start considering tradeoffs between risking long term health and improving performance. If you are a competent adult, you can evaluate your drivers, consider

BMW XM is a great example of how not to do this. Want to turn on your fancy seat vents? 3 taps on the large screen in the middle. Want to change some temps/fan speed? Swipe(not as nice as iOS) right, look through 10 identical looking i

This AI is basically a search engine layer for the wix library of components. It uses pre-defined colour palettes, with minor modifications. I hope you’re right, but I don’t understand how, by design it’s not supposed to come up with comple

I am not sure if cloudflare is liked by HN this week, but so far, I’ve not had a bad experience with their registrar. Fast and cheap.

No. That’s still a lottery and you are basically saying I’m paying more, so I expect a better service. This does not guarantee results. At all. What you want is a third party. Someone who understands the trade and the codes and will check i

Sadly, the NLP world is full of hot air. I've seen so many companies get funding for complete "written by a 12-year old" dogshit "industry leading IP", it's not even funny anymore. The hype has gone down and so

You are a single guy younger than 32 who makes more than $52,000/year Ding, except I'm in a long term committed relationship. Interesting that it thought I was single (I said no to every single dating/chat app on the list), n

Hey, I wasn't sure how correct it would be to try and self-promote on HN, was more looking for steps to take/routes to follow to help her on her way, but here is her Behance: https://www.behance.net/mondesgate and

Helping with setup is great, but config is where the real pain is. So maybe some pre-defined config files? Or a generator of sorts? So if I have a nginx or apache web server and I spin up a 16gb DO instance just for that, the config by defa
