It'd probably be reasonable to say the output of a game's 3D renderer is sRGB or something, and to call the eye-searing colors on your P3 monitor a bug.

But I think kaetemi's comment was talking about the intermediate calculations, which don't usually use sRGB. The "linear" color space used for those doesn't need to have a rigorous definition; even if there's no mathematically correct way to map a video-game-linear color to an sRGB color, the game company just hand-tweaks it until the game looks good.
(Monochrome pictures in 8x8 blocks, 4:2:0-downsampled colour images in 16x16 blocks; 4:2:2 and non-downsampled 4:4:4 colour images are technically possible but I’ve never seen one.)

To consider any system Turing complete you have to extend it to having infinite memory. This is why all actual, non-theoretical computers are equivalent to finite state machines (or linear bounded automata [0]).

"Tax the rich!" Is great when you are not rich, and most young people are not (yet) rich. Coming out of uni saddled with debt and doing entry level jobs etc, it is easy to just think selfishly and say "The rich should pay for more! Not me!"

Eventually you run out of other people's money though.
Oh, here we go again. The hazy macro-economic environment strains the capital efficiency of tech as they learn-anew why traditional businesses aren't quite as efficient as they are. The world is complex, and hard to navigate, and hard to encode into the sterility of a computer program, and jeeze I guess things like customer support and humans and special edge cases may actually matter when it comes to building a sustainable business.

You don't keep legitimate customers by subjecting them to erroneous fraud mitigation. That's the end of the story. Stripe can figure it out, or they can die. "Stripe cuts 14% of its workforce, CEO says they ‘overhired for the world we’re in’" Stripe handled an estimated $350B in payments annually (as of 2020) with around 8,000 employees. JP Morgan Chase handles somewhere around $2T, with around 250,000 employees. They didn't overhire. They never had enough people in the first place. They certainly don't now. It's going to get worse, and it may not get better.

Stripe is a low interest rate environment corporation, with $2.3B in venture funding, which will not exist in 10 years. You give a great piece of advice: diversity your payment processing.
> Again, Stripe gives no manner to remedy this. There is NO ONE you can call. NO ONE you can talk to.

Sure they do: it's called their general counsel. I would recommend you could have had an attorney reach out in writing by day 15 (30 if you are generous) if you legitimately could not get in contact through any other means - including writing your own written letter. At $50,000 in funds locked up, you likely have enough to afford representation in resolving this matter (less than $500.)

With a quick Google search:

> 6. Contact and complaints. You can contact SPC at https://stripe.com/contact or by mail to Stripe Payments Company, 354 Oyster Point Boulevard, South San Francisco, California, 94080. SPC may provide you with information and notifications in relation to the SPC Services via your Stripe Dashboard.

If resources are an issue, I entered this prompt into ChatGPT: "Write a letter to Stripe Payments Company demanding release of my $50,000 in legitimate sales proceeds from my dress-selling business."

I received any number of useful letters that would be applicable to resolving this situation. This HN post is more lengthly than the demand letter that would have resolved this.
There is no conspiring, there is no conspiracy. There is, however, a must-pass bill which can bypass some political roadblocks, so common-sense riders get attached to those bills.

If we had a functional government, this could have been passed with the regular Senate rules. We don’t, so it gets attached to something that’s going to pass anyway, because no one is gonna fight on behalf of sharkers.

Here is a chart [0] of the UK's coal production over the last century+. And here is their oil production [1] forming the nice bell-curve-like plot of a country burning through their reserves. I'm sorry to be the one breaking the news to you, but trends like that have nothing to do with energy efficiency and everything to do with exhausting reserves.

In my opinion, they could probably have resisted this outcome by some judicious investment in making nuclear cheaper rather than getting distracted by the climate change nonsense. Maybe not, who really knows? Regardless these charts are the realities they face. The theory says they're running out of cheap energy, the stats indicate their running out of cheap energy. The decline in political quality suggest they're running out. Grumpy Brits flailing with things like Brexit suggest they're feeling some serious pressure to make changes. And unless something changes fairly radically, the UK has in fact become energy poor since circa 2008.

It could be worse, they'll probably survive. But coincidentally (<narrator: it wasn't a coincidence>), their GDP/capita has run in to a brick wall [2] and the effects from that'll be politically rocky. Democracy can cope.

Even if you withdraw it, they can still come after you to get ‘their’ money back. PayPal (in the UK at least) requires a direct debit authorisation to be able to withdraw funds to a bank account. Part of that agreement is that they can also take money from your bank account if they decide to.

My experience with this is that I sold an iMac on eBay, then a week later PayPal informed me that the person who paid in fact has stolen someone else’s login, and so they sent a debt collection agency after me to make me refund the money, even though I no longer had the iMac.
That’s not what exception that proves the rule means. “Parking allowed only on Tuesdays” is an exception that proves the rule. This is just an exception that disproves the rule, like most exceptions.
Does anyone know of a good abstraction layer that could allow me to use different payment gateways (Stripe, GoCardless, Authorize.net, 2Checkout, etc.)?

Recently heard of Lago Billing, which is great because it is self-hostable, but only supports Stripe and GoCardless. Chargebee sounds good, but expensive and a single point of failure itself. Primer.io looks like it is only for large enterprises.

I'm not a fan of HN becoming the Oprah show that the clueless internet turns to in hopes of godlike intervention to resolve customer service issues with faceless tech companies. But then again, I'm not above upvoting anything that hurts Stripe.

[edit] my main point here wasn't about Stripe, shitheads though they may be, it was that it's unhealthy to cultivate either (A) an external image that we can intervene (re: "I challenge anyone here to connect me to a human being at Stripe"), or (B) some kinda internal savior complex that would go along with that.

Except pretty much everyone agrees, even within Labour, that Corbyn was unelectable... in part because his team and policies where squarely on the far left. A repeat of the Micheal Foot days in the 80s.

It's simply ranked choice voting (aka IRV) for the house. "Two-party preferred" is a system used by polls and news to try to convey how they think the runoff voting will play out, by picking the two candidates most likely to come first and second and showing their expected final tally.

That's fine...it's a start of a look at it, and all cancer treatments start at this stage of research of course.

This line stood out to me because I've seen it before. There's someone (or a group of someones) who repeatedly posts this same rant about Stripe on both Reddit and HN, slightly modifying the claimed business.

I have some ideas of my own that I would love to implement similarly to this and it would help to know how to get started.
I occasionally watch a twitch streamer that feeds stray cats in Florida. The only "damage" that I can see would be staining of concrete by food dropped on there. You can see where some dropped food from other people has marked the pavement in places. Would staining be classed as damage?

This particular streamer puts his food into trays and waits for the cats to eat and then removes the tray. No idea what happened here, but that's the only thing I can think of.
Overall, the idea of building an autocomplete terminal sounds great.
This terminal would help developers a lot. Most of the terminals that exist are limited and not very flexible. This type of terminal that you offer gives us an external perspective. So it sounds great! Excellent!
Irrelevant but EU has SEPA Instant Payments which basically resolves GPs issues with bank transfers.
Nothing. I've never been foolish enough to use them or direct a small business client towards using them. If I had been, based on this and a vast array of other similar complaints on this board and based on their business model that bundles transactions and balances merchant risk for gateways, I suppose that would be my own fault. But I do find them to be scummy as fuck, so I'm fine with them being taken down among the tech savvy - that is, people reading this board who may be in a position to recommend against clients using them as a processor.

> but you could restrict the challenge type before IIRC

I don't think so, that's what the other change Let's Encrypt announced does:

The change mentioned actually lands two CAA attributes. All the below assumes DNS integrity, either via DNSSEC or because the attacker hasn't been able to spoof your DNS records for whatever reason.

The accounturi attribute lets you bind to a specific ACME account, which means an attacker has to use your Let's Encrypt account to get certificates or it won't work. That means e.g. if you have a locked down ACME issuing server that has the account credentials and is supposed to handle all your issuing, but a bug means one of your test server got rooted by bad guys -- they don't get to issue certificates because they don't have the credentials from the locked down server.

The validationmethods attribute lets you specify that only some ACME methods ("challenge types") are permissible for this CA. So you can rule out methods you don't use, and thus forbid them to an adversary who might have found a way to use them.

If you have DNS integrity, set CAA to letsencrypt and validationmethods to require DNS ACME verification, you only need to protect DNS records, all your application protocol stuff is unable to cause issuance. So even though your new guy's "really cool" Python web service was immediately turned into a reverse shell by a Russian teenager and is now trying to send fake Viagra spam via your company email server, it can't get itself any certificates it wasn't supposed to have, which is a small blessing.

I use this method of thinking because my memory/concentration get worse sometimes and do that with age. Even a simple file or a piece of paper work like a huge L2 cache which you don’t have naturally. Outlining (indents basically) makes it even more navigatable, e.g. I write simplified sentences in a hierachical way and use that as references/structure of thought.

“During dinner, everyone sits together around a large table and feasts together, however, the feasting isn’t allowed to begin until everyone sits down. While enjoying their food, it is not uncommon to hear people murmuring their content with the food, and thanking Becca for spending the time to cook it. This did not seem strange to me at first, but the more time I spent there, the more I realized that this was a sort of ritual of theirs. Everyone gets dressed up, eats together, and constantly comments on the food.”
