I would assume a SQL database would be at least a tad easier to do accounting like tasks?

You can actually sue them if they do call you after you tell them not to for $1200 per violation. Is also illegal for them to call mobile phones. This technology actually cropped up because collection agencies are getting backlash from usin

It's against the law for collection agencies to call you if you tell them not to.

Hmm, often times the models are not reusable because they end up doing too much. Tryg actually started to create something called ACI because of this.

On the contrary, I find that people stuff too much on the model because of rails. I've found that I much prefer very simple models to describe very fine grained parts of the data and use the controller for much of the tying of things t

Whatever your issue was, it most likely has to do with our query planning or lack of indexes. I've used sqlite with success on many gigabyte datasets.

Couldn't you just write the file out in a CSV format sqlite supports?

Postgres is pretty awesome though. :)

This may be a bit off topic but I've found sqlite to be quite a powerful csv parser. Once posted you can manipulate the data in lots of ways. When you're working with reports that need to get back into some sort of table format, i

Polyglot can be nice too.

As a React user, I'd be really curious to see what these benchmarks look like when you're dealing with larger, more complex projects. I was under the impression that React scales well when dealing with lots of nested components an

Woops! I actually meant to post super gen pass but at least the website I referenced points directly to super gen pass so it wouldn't be too hard to figure out I would hope!

Actually this doesn't fulfill your sharing passwords requirement. It's still something I recommend you check out though at the very least for your personal passwords

Try http://genpass.supergenpass.com ! :)

I use this everywhere and I've been slowly migrating all of my passwords off of 1password: http://genpass.supergenpass.com Bookmarlet and mobile app and I don't need to store any passwords anymore. I also save password

Why the anti capitalistic sentiment? Is programmers want to get paid for our work, right?

I think page.js supports middleware if you're looking for something to emulate. Basically chainring callbacks.

How is this different from page.js?

Just use mvc, page js and fetch: github.com/lancecarlson/React-MVC

Hmm, there are also some pretty sophisticated fraud detection tools available. Have you explored them at all?

Ya, see operation choke point. Tons of reputational risk there

No they're not lying that their partners do not want them to touch high risk merchant accounts. At the end of the day, stripe answers to a sponsoring bank, which is highly regulated and are usually very rush averse.

In the overall scheme of payments, $5b is small. You need big volume to make money as a payment processor.
26.
by lcarlson 10y ago
It's because of the higher than normal charge backs that stripe's sponsoring bank doesn't want on their books. There is also some reputational risk I'd imagine and plenty of shady actors trying to get underwritten

They're not the gatekeepers. It's their sponsoring bank.

Have you tried msys2/ming? Cmder.exe? Pretty good stuff if you're looking for a close Linux command line experience on Windows.

There is actually alot of engineering talent in Michigan. I can understand the move. Not sure about Novi though.... Ann Arbor is great though! (I'm biased)

If your credit is messed up, you will have other issues to contend with besides erroneous addresses. Side note: if you did have an outstanding debt, a collection agency might serve the wrong person. This could trigger a law suit... Or some
