Hi,
I'm a founder of https://tardis.dev/ which I've built to scratch my own itch as couldn't find anything on the web that would give me historical high resolution data for crypto markets (futures, swaps, options included) with affordable pricing for individuals hence created my own - hope some of you will find it as useful as I do.

There is a RunKit playground on the homepage so you can play around with the API and client libs that are available on GitHub (https://github.com/tardis-dev). You can access historical market data for first day of each month without API key.

It's raw non aggregated historical data API including full order book snapshots & delta updates, useful for algo backtesting, designing quantitative models, market microstructure, order book dynamics research etc. Currently supported are BitMEX, Binance, Deribit, Bitfinex, Bitstamp, Coinbase Pro, Kraken, Crypto Facilities and OKEx.

I'd really appreciate any feedback you have.

Thanks! Thadeus
It's just as bonkers as people profiting from providing food--a basic human need-- … which is to say not at all.

There's no difference between somebody 3000 miles away in the US owning property and renting it out and somebody in China owning that property and renting it out. The problem is housing stock being underused, but that (a) can be addressed via taxation and (b) is no different from stuff like empty nesters keeping their 4 bedroom house after the kids move away.
Aww, I wish I'd gotten in on that, could really use that sigma thing ^_^
But the models haven't failed. If anything, they've proven success. Netflix's success has spawned what, 8 or so competitors now? Uber, 4 or so. I may be off, just what I'm thinking of in my head.

So, it may be fair to say that SV businesses will fail, but definitely not their business models.
>the US recognizes Taiwan as part of China

This is false. The US has "acknowledged" the "One China" position of both sides of the Strait since the 1970s, but it has never supported the notion that Taiwan (and Kinmen, Taiping, etc.) is PRC territory or that the mainland is ROC territory.

The feelings of Singaporean residents about the matter are not relevant to the discussion at all.
Yeah, from what I can see this is some controversy drummed up by Gab-supporters because F-Droid refuses to protect their feelings. At least nothing I can find online refutes that.
The challenge for most of software is that people dont know what other people want or there is too much change, so people just flow with it.

It is more of a people problem and market problem than a technical one. I long for formal methods and rigorous design.
> To claim that PRC has no claim on Taiwan ignores the fact that even the US recognizes Taiwan as part of China

The US has never officially recognized that the island Taiwan as part of the PRC, only as part of "China", which is ambiguous because there are two nations calling themselves China (PRC and ROC).
Can we get the title changed mods? Nothing seems to indicate F-Droid banned Gab. At least not in the linked article.
An interesting question is that if there were plants containing cocaine in Africa, why were they not cultivated and selectively bred like in South America, and subsequently driven extinct?

Answering my own question, I guess that would possibly by due to the prevalence of coffee. Coca leaves on their own are about as stimulating as caffeine.

The main advantage that Coca leaves (and hence cocaine) have over Coffee beans and caffeine is that large doses of cocaine don't cause the same negative effects as large doses of caffeine. You can rack lines of caffeine like coke, and they do wire you up, but the anxiety and nausea makes it really not worth it.
Mr. Leung was indeed allowed to serve his term but not allowed to re-run (which was his ambition). The Umbrella movement ended his political career and he served out his term as a lame duck. No matter how you spin this, he basically left the political scene with his tail between his legs. Carrie Lam is similarly politically dead. Unlike Leung, I expect they won't keep her around as the protests are increasingly about her specifically. Neither Lam nor Leung had any say in this matter; it's all about what Bejing allows to happen. Clearly their handling of the Umbrella movement just set them up for what's happening now, which in terms of scale and popular support is a problem for the current leadership because their ability to keep the lid on this domestically is not infinite and they need the two party system to be a success to keep a grip on Taiwan, which is another thing they seem to not have under control lately.

So, I'm predicting they will seek to remove the problem a bit sooner and ms. Lam seems like she's expendable, politically dead anyway, and a big part of their problem.
Ah, I see. So, in short, you can be forced to return an order, but that is only because the order was not made with a "legal" price [0], so no legal transaction has taken place, and all that happened was you sending the webshop money without cause, and they mistakenly sending you a product, which both must be returned upon request by the other party.

[0] a "legal" price is a price which the customer would expect for such a product. But in a shop advertising "up to 60% off", a 50% off TV would still be legal price, even if it is a price error.
Is it really that common? I made this typo a few times in my life. It was corrected every time before the program actually run because the compiler warned me about it. I don't see how you can make this mistake if you're not aggressively trying (by turning off warnings for example).
I live in a HDB in Singapore and they are rock solid buildings. Way better than any of the apartment buildings I've lived in in the west. They are designed to be inhabited for 99 years (the length of the leasehold). I wouldn't be surprised if many are capable of lasting much longer.
I do use Syncthing as a Dropbox replacement because that was my original use case.

My original user case was to sync files between my computers at work and home and it worked perfectly for that. Extremely reliable as others have mentioned.

But today when I started the program on my laptop while Syncthing was running on my computer it suggested the shared folder on my computer to sync. I knew it did LAN sync but I didn't know about the discovery. It was awesome.

Thanks to everyone who created this wonderful software.
If I remember correctly, in these cases (bunk beds and televisions) the orders were never fulfilled. The court ruled that a sales contract is not binding if the buyer can reasonably suspect that the price shown is so absurdly low that an error on the side of the seller is apparent.

That is, you can try to order the item, but the seller has no legal obligation of fulfilling it if they can proof beyond reasonable doubt that a mistake was made, and can return the money instead.
The One China policy states that there is one China, either under the PRC or the ROC.

The PRC claims that Taiwan is a Special Administrative Region of the PRC while the ROC claims de jure sovereignty over all of China. There are significant political parties within Taiwan itself (the Pan-Blue Coalition parties) that support the One China policy.

If there isn't even internal consensus regarding independence in Taiwan, I think it's fair to say that the issue is a little more complicated than "China is sabotaging recognition of Taiwan's independence".
I use the subscriptions app on Playstore to keep track of all my subscriptions. Pretty happy with it so far.
There's also a separate APN for dun. So tethering traffic goes through the dun APN. And that's just the most basic form of classification that Android does voluntarily. Carriers can additionally do more tricks like the TTL one mentioned.
Protesters are already facing threats of physical violence, so saying that there won't be overt military action isn't likely to change many minds. Dozens have been injured in altercations with the Hong Kong police department since protests started last month. There have been several accusations of police brutality, coming from both protesters and journalists. There are also accusations that the police are already using the PLA or other forces from the mainland to bolster their ranks, but it's hard for me to tell how likely that is too be true. The primary pieces of evidence that I hear are officers covering or wearing incorrect identification numbers, and officers speaking little/no Cantonese & speaking Mandarin instead.
Many of the front-line protesters seem to be willing to give up their lives to confront the HK government.

They broke into the LegCo building on 1/July, if the police force hasn't withdrawn, probably lots of blood would have been shed.

Whether one agrees or not, many of the youth do not see much, if any, hope in Hong Kong under the current leadership.

These people would rather go "scorched earth" (well, probably not Syrian-style scorched earth, yet) than to be appeased with empty promises, again.
There's nothing about allowing Gab apps on F-Droid that denies anybody "the right not to hear something". Just don't install the app, and you won't see what people post on Gab.

In New Zealand we have debit cards, so they act just like a normal credit card, except it needs to have money in the account for the transaction to work. So you tie it to an account that you put money into, instead of say, your every-day spending account which could contain a lot more money.

The removal of Gab app from F-Droid is precisely exercising of the freedom of the right not to hear something.

Gab is just like any other Fediverse client - with an important difference. To show it, let's use an example: for instance, Firefox doesn't brand itself with the logo of a company that abuses free speech to promote and benefit off hate speech. This is exactly what Gab does and - at least for me - which is the elephant in the room that hardly anyone talks about. Free speech, free speech, but why is Gab so proud of performing and/or tolerating gestures that actively harm other people?

Gab, as a company, focuses on monetizing hate speech that it propagates via free speech. That's what I called the abuse of free speech previously in the discussion.

Since Gab is a corporate instance and access is offered for free, then I am the product, even if I'm just a number in their user count; it means that if I join Gab, I help Gab in its goals, also in the one that I stated above. I do not want to do this, and I consider other people who stay there complicit or supportive of that behaviour. If they were not okay with what Gab does, they would not stay there.
Amazon auto renewed w years fee after a trial, but offer a full refund after the fact if you haven't used the service.
I don't know about this, but can you confirm that it's primarily a distrust of foreigners, and not just a general distrust of "western" medicine?
Banning Gab will only make it more "exciting" and increase its exclusive allure to those who seek something like this. I'm not sure I buy their reasoning (or Mastodon's for that matter). I think all of this is either just a way to avoid controversy (which is silly, but people would be more receptive to it, if they just came out and said that, without the virtue signaling); or it's just that they feel like they cannot argue against those faulty/evil ideologies (which is concerning). I feel like I'm stating the obvious here but racisim and racisit propaganda won't just go away if you ban it, quite the opposite, it'll fester and gain new grounds and people. Banning (especially from supposedly free software groups) is indirectly doing a service to their propaganda.
Hello HN!

The Popup Tab Switcher is an attempt to bring the power of your system app switcher to a browser. The extension shows you a popup with last active tabs when you press its shortcut (Alt + Y by default). You cycle through them by holding Alt and pressing Y. By releasing the Alt key you switch to the chosen tab. This is like switching between apps in Windows (Alt + Tab) and in macOS (Cmd + Tab).

Also, when you close an active tab, you will be placed to the previously active one. It is more helpful than the default Chrome's behaviour, which activates the nearest tab.

You can delegate the default switching between tabs (Ctrl + Tab) to the extension, see how https://github.com/dvdvdmt/popup-tab-switcher#replace-defaul...

Thanks for you time, any feedback is welcome!
Military response would draw a lot of negative responses from the international community, and would be a clear rebuke of the "one country, two systems" that Hong Kong is supposed to be operating under. This could put HK's special economic status in jeopardy, which would be both damaging to Beijing as well as the HK business elite. It's better for the CCP if they can have the city suppress the protests using their own police force. After all, Western countries use the police to control protests all the time.
I always admired fdroid for its rightfully so very strict requirements and warning about "features that promote nonfree" stuff ...

This is so horrible I can not believe this! They should actually be THE place where things like Gab should be thrive when other big political correct mega corps ban what they to not like for political reasons.

I am am following this Political correct BS for years and its getting worse every single day. Now the all so tolerant left has already infested the software world with their ideology that was once fighting for free speech but nowadays its he exact opposite. They fight for the censoring of everything that they deep offensive and that essentially is everything and everyone who is not political left leaning. They literally call everyone a Nazi nowadays who is not aligning their views with them.

And it get much worse. They call gay people, Jews ... Nazis. They Dox and harass people who dare to disagree with pumping up children with hormones for gender change or those who do not want to have late term abortions legalized ... . Yes there are always people who are bigots and who hate people for who they are but from what I see this is not the general consensus on the right. Also hate is legal! Mocking people and making fun of them is effective and also legal. And the US has the best laws in the world to prefect those freedoms to have a open discussion and free thought. But they are loosing the arguments of reason that is why they want everything censored. They cant stand it when people actually listen and think for themselves and form opinions based on that. F-droid should simply follow US law and not go beyond that, again places like that should the the perfect place to provide a counterpart to the mainstream spy and ad infested PC capital controlled censored hellholes of app-stores. Its all done under the disguise of protecting people, all they want is "protect" people form different opinions. Nobody forces anyone to go on Gab read what they say.

Sad day, really sad day. I am not really a smartphone person, believe it or not but I guess this concludes them getting a donation from me as long as this is in place.
I don't know what to say I'm quite shocked that this happened .
Sure, people are scared of lots of things that they shouldn’t be scared of — I’m more worried about politicians being given a high visibility reason to outlaw something which is strictly an improvement, with emphasis on “high visibility“, and thanks to the availability heuristic one per day is all you need.
Afraid not. :'(
A VCD is a pump that uses vacuum Nitro Strength Review to help you get an erection. Usually, the apparatus includes an acrylic cylinder, a pump and also a constriction band or ring. This apparatus needs to be directly attached to the end of the penis and is used to create vacuum that helps attract blood to the penis, which ultimately results in erection. The constriction ring is placed at the end of the penis and makes sure that the blood stays inside your penis. This in turn helps you maintain your erection.

There are many different types of penis pumps available on the market, but they all have the same action mechanism. The pump needs to be placed over your penis, after which you need to pump it. This can be accomplished by using your hands or in the case of battery operated pumps, all you need to do is push the required button. This help push the air out of cylinder to create a vacuum. This procedure also draws blood to the penis, helping it become erect. After your penis has become erect, the constriction ring/band needs to be slid down to the end of the penis, to make sure that the blood doesn't escape your penis. After this, you need to release the vacuum and remove the pump.

You can then attempt sexual intercourse, but make sure that you don't go beyond 30 minutes, after which you must remove the constriction band. This is the time frame that is considered safe for use, and anything over that means you are putting your penis at a risk of injury.

Don’t underestimate what media can do.

One could argue that’s the power of media. If media publishes uncountable number of articles, sure investors and politicians will follow.

Obviously there are more than one reason on the table.

One being nobody wants too much power at Chinese hand and many countries are just worried about it. (This alone can have a lot of valid and invalid reasons)

Second is of course now some other countries are following a similar strategy to compete. Like India and a few other countries in East Asia.

Third, one strategy doesn’t scale forever.

And perhaps many more.

Yes, some people are unable to deal with the faulty/evil ideologies, simply because they run out of spoons. This is exactly why bans like this come into place.

Nobody is forced to deal with the kind of people who post and stay on Gab. The action that you see here is the direct effect of many, many people exercising their freedom of speech to say that they do not want to deal with the people who follow the brand of this software.

Gab has the right to speak freely; it does not have the right to a free audience and/or megaphone. The decision you see here is a direct consequence of them refusing to address the problem of hate speech festering on their platform.
Nothing you just said contradicts or even really attempts to contradict my very simple statement.
"That capacity for investment seems independent of how the wealth is divided among a countries citizens."

The rest of your comment makes sense. But this last part doesn't seem right: if wealth were distributed evenly in China, then there might be no Chinese buyers for US real estate. It's only due to inequality ('how the wealth is divided') that there is a segment who can afford this.
