on: Man buys used Tesla only to discover it's banned from Supercharger network
It’s confusing, but the “salvage” label here has nothing to do with the title, which is clean in this case. It’s a label used is by Tesla - which means it’s not allowed to use super chargers due to safety concerns. They don’t want a janky Tesla causing serious injury. Honestly it’s a good policy by Tesla and will help incentivize owners to get quality repair work.

The difference is that buying a ticket isn't marketed as "opt-in".

on: Ticketmaster changes policy, no longer offering refunds on postponed shows
I've heard from some large event organizers that EventBrite is taking similar measures: delaying payouts to event organizers until the event has concluded. I heard from one organizer that they were told by EventBrite that they were not going to see a payout until 2021 for their Labor Day 2020 event.

on: We do not use foreign keys (2016)
Also, to be noted, Github was a Rails app since long before there was native support for adding foreign keys. I've worked on a lot of large monorails that were created in Rails' early days and none of them have foreign keys.

I could be wrong, but I think it's the same internals of a 6S. I have a 6S and it still feels plenty capable.

I would add: the trackpad is way too big. I accidentally touch it all the time when I am typing, which causes my cursor to move.

on: MailChimp vs. Amazon SES – How I Reduced My Monthly Bill
Aaaaaand that's why I no longer use Amazon SES for transactional mail for signupforms.com. It is frequently used by mass-marketers, which means my transactional email was frequently being dropped by some email providers because of SES's poor deliverability.
