We use Chase, and just acquired a company using Stripe. Chase needs them to transfer over the cards in a specific way as not to violate the law, and Stripe is not willing to work with Chase. Despite law saying they have to give us the cards & a policy on their website saying they will.

We've been working on this for 6+ weeks I believe, and we had a group call today with Stripe, Chase and our team. And, Stripe didn't even show up.

Trying to reach out here and on linkedin and twitter to find someone in Stripe to head off us having to post publicly to get help.

Thanks, Ben
I looked into straw bale houses years ago. I even saw them being built in an El Paso, Texas subdivision and walked around the construction.

They do have some advantages, but the thing that caused me to loose interest was the possibility of water damage and mould. One leaky pipe and your wall is done.
The counter argument to this is that the RFC is exceedingly new, and directly from Apple. Microsoft has been using .local in example (and recommending them for production) AD builds for a decade. I see what Apple is going for, and I don't mind the idea, but the practical results are frustrating and pointless.
Windows.Forms works. RepetierHost is an example of a cross platform mono forms app.

These days I lean towards web services and using the browser as the GUI.
No. It will be a skin around the Webkit runtime - but with Firefox Sync and similar enabled. Maybe a few extra APIs, too...

Welcome to the walled garden
This most likely has to do with your DNS server. Try to change it to another one (e.g. Google's 8.8.8.8 or OpenDNS's 208.67.222.222) and see if it gets better.

If you watch this and your imagination doesn't run in the direction of evil robot army.. well, your imaginations doesn't work the same way as mine does.

I see a drone fleet of 100 bulky trucks galloping along contested highways towards a city boiling over with the violence of several simultaneous wars. They're protected by speed and dozens of armed UAVs. 96 make it through. Acceptable losses. The first truck to unload its four legged robotic soldiers loses 30 units to the welcome party, a quarter. By the time the tenth one is unloading, they're not losing any. The last robo-dog is unloaded just 18 minutes after the first truck arrives. By that time, there are over 10,000 dogs in squad-packs seeking targets from a database of 7,000 known enemy combatants and seeking control of strategically important sites.

there's something uncanny and creepy about how robots move once they've been riddled with armor piercing rounds. A leg stops working or a sensor gets damaged and it's impossible not to imagine that it's an injured animal in excruciating pain. The single minded resolve thug, that's all machine. If you're shooting off legs, you need to shoot off all four before these things will stop.

Any chance Boston Dynamics will adopt a don't be evil policy?

I'd be interested to hear what the definition of "everyday literacy needs" is, because I've had a similar experience in the US. Unless there is a large concentration of people who are actually mostly illiterate in rural areas, this statistic must be misleading.
On Android, clicking a link in the browser generally takes you to the default application for that type of url. If there is no default set, then it will give you the choice of what to use to go there (possibly including the browser in the case of a link like this).

Firefox doesn't support that, and would instead take you to the play website, that really doesn't perform well on a lot of mobile devices. I'm guessing this factored into their decision to discourage its use.

I don't necessarily agree with this decision, but I think it is an exaggeration to imply that there is some evil intent here. It's not keeping you from doing anything that you could do before, and if you are really eager to get to the site just tap "Request Desktop Site" and it will still load.

I think you're conflating several issues.

I don't think it's a choice between "race to the bottom" or "race to the top". Someone needs to do dangerous, nasty, repetitive jobs if we want to maintain a standard of living that many people have become used to. Creatures with the sort of agency you're describing are, in my opinion, unsuited to those tasks, for several reasons, including moral and economic reasons. The robots we are increasingly using to do those jobs are much better suited, and there isn't (again, in my opinion) a moral objection that solely applies to such machines.

That said, our policies are woefully out of date in the face of such increasing automation. Our current system inflates employment and even a meager standard of living. We are going to need to revise our polices, both in the more developed nations and in those that have, as you so tastefully put it, "different labor standards". I don't know how to do this. There are many proposals; a popular one is the basic income guarantee. I'm not educated or intelligent enough to really understand the implications of such a policy, but I can agree that the just and humane treatment of all creatures with the agency you're talking about is among the best guiding principles that I can think of.

The two issues raised above (whether it is moral to use a machine for automation, and the fair treatment of creatures with agency) is separate from the point related to the development of human-manufactured creatures with agency. We don't know how to do it yet, but we are slowly working towards it. Assuming that we eventually do figure it out, that will be a victory as long as we treat our new children like we would treat our homo sapiens children. The research and development of such creatures with agency and those for industrial automation are not mutually exclusive, and serve different purposes.

To try to put it a different way: something is going to need to harvest fruit. It's a shit job. I would rather have Spot do it than a person of any variety, human or otherwise.
I'm glad that at least you didn't get downvoted to hell based on some BS articles like I did.

It doesn't have to be an invasive action to be creepy. I'm confident that setting up a bot to pretend to be human and to engage in conversation is pretty creepy, and I don't think that's a particularly outlandish position to take.

> Elixir is cool, but I don't think I could find anyone to work on it for me.

You would be surprised! The Elixir community is growing quite fast. Come hang out on IRC in #elixir-lang on freenode sometime. Elixir also has the added bonus of the entire community more or less accepting Phoenix as the "go to" Web framework so Elixir doesn't have nearly the amount of web framework fragmentation of Go or Node.
Fully automate SemVer compliant package publishing on npm with semantic-release
In my experience, discoveryd is at best at about the quality of beta software. With some regularity on several different Macs on different networks, it completely loses the ability to resolve names. Kill it and let launchd restart it, and suddenly names resolve again.

Another Yosemite daemon addition, recentsd, had serious issues (for example: substantial memory leaks when interacting with Mail.app) until 10.10.2.

Apple has gotten very good at eliminating crashes. They're obviously using the reporting mechanism there to great effect. But at the same time, Console.app has never been noisier, and failures that don't result in crashes seem to linger far too long.

They've also become, it seems, far more dependent on an "orchestra" of daemon processes to perform tasks that in the past would have been implemented in passive frameworks used separately by each app. That adds complexity of coordination, and meanwhile a single failure can affect every "client" app on the system.
Having a standing desk improves my productivity
Yosemite is very solid for me as long as it doesn't have to do with iOS integration. iOS 8 is shit-pure-shit, to the point where even my non-technical mother in law and wife have asked about downgrading. Seriously, random non-technical people I meet talk about how bad iOS 8 is and how they won't upgrade. I haven't seen anything like it since the Windows 9x era.

There's some irony here. Chrome unpredictably punts you to the app when browsing the Play Store (actually I think it has to do with whether the link to the store involved a redirect, but that looks unpredictable from the outside). This is a mess.

Firefox, OTOH, lets you reliably browse the website and easily switch to the app (via the Android in the URL or via the Open in an app option in a link's long-press menu) whenever you want. This is much cleaner, but...

At least we have Phony.
Depends on the angle. I would say if it comes to Tinder all you get is a picture. So the only metric is the body-form-shape-sizes etc. If the size of some body parts can be measured with the submitted images I see nothing wrong here. Wallet thinkness and status are not represented in our data (image), so it would not make sense to include those metrics, since its out of scope.

That's not the same thing that is being discussed here. What's being discussed is that you click, for example, a youtube link in your web browser and android opens up the youtube app to view the video. Android will give you the choice to open it up in a variety of supported applications, including the browser, you can set your permanent preference if you want to not be asked again.

"So how do you install an app from the Play Store in Firefox?"
Same way I install it from my desktop browser. The site displays a list of my android devices and I select a device to install it on. Sometime later, the Playstore app receives a push notification from google, downloads and installs it.

It works in Chrome browser on Android. Works in Chrome and Firefox on a desktop. It even works from Firefox on Android when requesting the desktop site. So why block just the mobile firefox user-agent? I think it's a perfectly reasonable way to install. If it's not, Google should block all browsers, not just mobile firefox.
that really doesn't perform well on a lot of mobile devices

Maybe not on their default browsers, but you're trying to show the site in Firefox, which worked fine, until they intentionally blocked it. In fact, that's one excellent reason to use Firefox for Android in the first place.

This is just one of many, in the recent arguments he has stated several times that he doesn't understand how automated code refactoring works, he has not experience with IDEs, and things of the like.

Beside the ideological point, he does not seem a person capable of steering important projects, at least when it comes to compiler technology. He just doesn't know enough anymore.
Your HN app is nice but: when I tick the current top link it opens the app again, in a new tab (mobile ff). Also there is no favicon which does not help recognition in a long list of favorites in a desktop folder on Android.

Yeah, iOS does not support "back" across applications. There are gestures which allow you to switch apps back and forth, but they don't work until the app has completely loaded.

RFiD Microchips: Mark of the Beast Technology
When testing https://github.com/wyager/Neks , pipelining made the server something like 30x faster for the exact same reason. Syscalls are tremendously expensive compared to the work of processing a request.
I think this is a direct consequence of the commercialisation of the Linux desktop by Canonical, Red Hat, et al, but especially Canonical. The amateurs were pushed out and the professionals swarmed in, and now the requirement was to bring more "converts" from Windows.

A number of bad decisions started to get made as these sponsors became frustrated with the low rate of uptake. One of them, I'm sure, was the perceived need to keep up with the competition, essentially getting into an arms race with the strategy (if there was one) of outdoing Microsoft.

A good example of this is the absurd introduction of PulseAudio, which introduced features that nobody asked for while simultaneously breaking audio for a large number of users including myself. All because a similar (but working) feature was introduced in Vista.
Thankfully, Emacs maintainer Stefan Monnier is being sensible about this:

Cannot agree more. At least they need to justify this statement. If there is a legitimate critical missing feature in FF, I am sure the FF devs will get on it pronto. But this lack of communication is worrisome.
It used to be that way, but it's been getting worse over time.

Seriously, the last 5 years have undone much of the "web standards web" that took a decade to accomplish. If you use Google services, you're going to suffer if you don't use Chrome. Thinking about it, maybe it's only Google that has "regressed" because IE and MS have been getting better at it.
> For the sake of the people who aren't immune, it's best if the vast majority of people around them are immune.

And what is the plan to go about that?

Just force-vaccinate these folks' children, something they vehemently oppose, thus traumatizing both parents and children in the process? What is the proposed plan to go about this in a way that is acceptable to both sides? Or is it the case that these anti-vaxxers shouldn't be respected and should have no rights just because they believe a fantasy? Because if that's going to be the new standard we'll have to have a giant conversation about gods.
And rightly so, because it was Google that fucked up by implementing crap only supported by their proprietary crap browser.

You know what, that's EXACTLY what we need. Because all the failures of all the other incompetent government agencies have not worked. What we really need is more of that.

To be fair; the only thing that is really saving us is that all these horrible agencies and abuses are being conducted by incompetent institutions. Could you imagine if all these agencies were actually competent at what they claim and intend to do? That's the real danger. A gun is just a hunk of metal, until you give the moron holding it a bullet.

I'm reminded of a possibly fictitious quote, "Our goal is to sell each item at a loss, but we are going to make up for it through volume."
This isn't true. As I mention in a comment below, Firefox gives you two nicer ways to switch from the web to an app:

1. The droid in the URL bar once the page has loaded.

2. The "Open in an app" alternative in a link's long-press menu, which often tells you which app when the destination is clear.

You shouldn't. It's gibberish.

Discrimination, when not applied to people, is a good thing. If you have spent years learning some discipline, and you have developed no preferences, you are not "avoiding stagnation", you are indecisive to the point of paralysis.

Challenge them occasionally, sure, but failure to develop preferences is a massive judgment failure.

For what it's worth, this is the first one in that list that I looked at and decided was garbage... I kept scanning for another few and saw little reason to change my mind, as it was not an exception. Pretty landscapes notwithstanding, this entire list was quite sophomoric... it seems to me the criteria for inclusion was sounding wise rather than being wise.

It's a sexist statement because personal taste is implied rather than stated, the question is totally valid but should be phrased in a socially friendlier way. This is the only way for men to overcome the wave of sexism finger-pointing.

"What about other body parts I find attractive?" isn't sexist. Or even, "I like boobs, what about those?" also isn't sexist (since it's explicitly conveying personal taste).

As it is, the original comment is crass. Probably more crass than sexist, I'll admit, but I promise you there are female readers here that probably rolled their eyes when they read the original comment rather than thinking, "yeah, what about that, that's a good question!"
Well,Facebook is putting resources on React native which is totally sane given the fact that they want their mobile app to use a native GUI. Javascript is just a sugar to make development cycles faster when supporting multiple mobile Os.
