I watched a documentary about ketamine use by party people.
It profiled a young guy who had destroyed his bladder and needed to use a pump and hole in his belly to urinate.
Really disturbing.
trestenhortz | 5 years ago | on: Robinhood is facing nearly 50 lawsuits over GameStop frenzy
That’s not the reason robinhood gave at the time.
Also, robinhood waited till the end of the day to lift its ban, despite other companies had followed robinhood lead lifting their bans hours earlier.

They’ve removed the original blog post that gave their rationale.
If anyone can find it I’d like to read it again.
The original reason was some bullshit about protecting investors from volatility.

That is absolutely not the reason that they publicly stated they stopped allowing purchasing and only allowed selling.
I’d dance on the grave of this company.

So not USA under Trump?

I’ve met many Iranians and I have to say they were without exception exceedingly polite, friendly and welcoming and immaculately mannered and hospitable.

I guess how you see this depends on who you think “the bad guys” are.

If Apple put more memory in these machines there would less thrashing.

Interesting post. This reminded me of what it was like to be a true beginner a very long time ago.
I’d forgotten just how confusing those initial concepts like arrays could be.

The rules of HN are clear ... this is definitely allowed.

The disturbing thing about this report is there’s no fuzzy out of focus shakycam image.
What could it mean?

And short selling.
Plus, companies should pay taxes fair and square.
trestenhortz | 5 years ago | on: Google admits Kubernetes container tech is too complex
This was glaringly obvious from day one.
Containers add vast complexity, add another layer of complexity on top.

I quit Facebook the other day. I didn’t like my online persona. I’d rather friends and family knew me in person or not at all.

This is classic anti Microsoft rant I’m surprised the title doesn't include M$
The reason people use typescript is because it’s really great technology, not because bill gates hypnotized developers.
trestenhortz | 5 years ago | on: Start with a Niche
Yes. Slack was a pivot from gaming.

“Excel predecessor”. Harsh description of the invention of spreadsheet software.
trestenhortz | 5 years ago | on: Start with a Niche
I agree with “Start with a niche”, but pretty much all of the examples given aren’t niche products..,, they were some of the most revolutionary products in history. I’m just saying they don’t really illustrate the concept of a “niche start”.

Wise is far less memorable and searchable and identifiable and unique than TransferWise.

Developers already have an incredible amount to learn without making them devops too.
This is the sort of thing than non tech management would love though.
It’s a great slogan.
Essentially the sign of mismanagement dressed up as innovation.
