I’ve always felt like their money went into marketing, not actual capabilities. It still feels like a Fisher-Price tier platform imo.

That's not just AWS. That's Amazon generally. All Amazon orgs I've worked for have been like this, and due to the nature of my work, I (and my teams) have been treated like pariahs for daring to suggest that there ought to be

>Why must moving slowly be stigmatised? Because some of us have jobs to get to, trains to catch, appointments to make, airplane gates to queue at, and just generally need to get-things-done! All for slowness, but not amongst pedestrians.

It’s been tried, with some success. Pretty sure I’ve seen a post here on HN from someone that DIy’d it end to end. But it’s also something that’s not responsible to shortcut. Shifting teeth around too fast can result in permanent root damag

This honestly looks like it was created by someone that’s never seen, let alone held a Tostitos Scoop in their life. The models don’t resemble the average Scoop at all.

Are they consistent? As a North American, I find it difficult to take EU/European countries’ stances on addiction seriously when they seem to be decades behind on reducing the prevalence of smoking and drinking, which almost certainly

That’s not unique to PayPal. Pretty much any payment processor that detects a proprietor paying themselves is going to throw up a red flag for circular cash flow fraud and close the account. Bank-operated payment processors are often slower

'Miswak' sticks are popular in the Middle East/Northern Africa. Raw mastic gum seems to be gaining popularity in the US. Neither is popular for the explicit purpose of cognitive enhancement, though.

Yup. ~5% more fructose than table sugar in its most common formulations, actually lower content than table sugar in some formulations (e.g. HFCS-42). The 'high fructose' moniker is derived from a reference to 'pure' corn
