Check out BNO. It may be what you're looking for

I've used Draw.io over screenshare successfully, when needed

login info and MFA devices in a lock-box for them to inherit.

This seems wise, but won't work unless the software allows multiple MFA devices. I need my MFA device & phones on me to access my accounts several times a day. My bank logs me out after a few minutes and requires MFA to get back in

Full transparency, I worked with Algolia when I was a YC partner years ago. I also invested from my fund. But I've been meaning to do a sit-down discussion with this team for a while. We've funded a lot of API-first developer-focused businesses in the past: Easypost, Lob, Apollo GraphQL, and developer focused stuff like LogDNA and so some of this is wanting to point to things that work well. Interactivity in particular is really important to nail in first time experience. I'm also a customer of Algolia— I use it in all my software projects including Posthaven and Bookface at YC. I had to implement Lucene at Palantir and I used both Lucene and Thinking Sphinx when I ran engineering (and devops too) for my top 200 site Posterous. (In retrospect I should have hired a devops team... but that's another story.) And the contrast between running your own search at scale and having something work out of box with code that's ready to rock... I genuinely believe it's pretty magical.

You didn't answer OP's question, which was:

This is an advertisement of Algolia. Isn't it?

Reflecting on your answer, you appear to be advertising for Algolia as well. It's a nice product, but the impression I get is that OP is right -- this post is an advertisement.

was bummed that it was compiled from Haxe

Why do you need a "real" JS version? Is it that you want to be able to read/edit from a human-source, rather than a Haxe-compiled source (which I assume is less legible)?

When I've used to Amazon Go store,

My receipt was in the app shortly after (I walked about two blocks and checked). I think it took longer for an email to show up, but can't recall exactly

In the era of on demand computing, near limitless cloud resources

Should be pointed out that BoA decided to build their own "cloud"

The caption of one of the article's images says "Czech proofreader's marks for a river". Does this mean that points were deducted for a student unintentionally creating a river? The article does not elaborate

Dupe. On the front page right now: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22525494

For those unaware, this is common practice -- it a control that is working as intended. The trading was halted for 15 minutes

What do you mean here? Encoded in their API?

And If they don’t like JWT, why don’t they use something else?

I’m currently typing on a personal mobile device that is trusted by my software employer

Who are the customers for such unreliable systems?

Can't be more than 2.5 because Backblaze B2 already gives you $5/TB/Mo.

Well it can be, if they have a lot of inefficiencies. Backblaze could have more experienced engineers who overcame these. I assure you, I can accidentally design a very expensive storage system as I’m not that smart ;)

I know some attorneys are on HN, so question: does Namecheap/Whoisguard have a legal obligation to reveal that requested info?

Bureaucracy is rarely as expensive as aggressive profiteering.

Have you seen the DoD and other gov entity contracting? Perhaps we can expect the same level of contracting that the DoD has today, outsourcing those expensive mistakes to others, for them to take the blame/fall/

I can see a situation where pharma bureaucrats refuse to approve or pursue things, because government mistakes are more unforgivable than business mistakes (where failure and experiments are often encouraged). I would expect more layers of approval/red-tape to develop as no-one wants to accept the blame of approving.

Is this fairly common / expected? The article makes this seem expected

5G is nothing but a big Trojan Horse.

What does this mean?

I use a website from a local private lender. It requires info about the kind of mortgage you want, the value of the property, your credit score, the zip code, etc. If you don't know where to look, you can start with Zillow's tool: https://www.zillow.com/mortgage-rates/

Most fan-run conventions run on a barely-above-breakeven budget at the best of times.

Ya, I've had local races get cancelled due to weather, and they also have a no-refund policy. Much of the revenue has already been spent, so I understand.

Well, for starters it is against this site's guidelines

Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle. That destroys the curiosity this site exists for.

It looks like the rates actually went slightly up from a few days ago (though these depends on many variables, but I'm comparing to my local rate that I've been checking for weeks). Might change tomorrow based on today's news.

The US is also moving into a demographic downturn, thanks to republican policies.

Please don't post partisan political comments without a source.

Edit: I appreciate the downvotes for kindly asking people to follow HackerNews' guidelines

Cool. When you evaluated all the alternatives, did you stash a pro/con list somewhere on a blog? I’d appreciate reading it

I'm familiar with SQL, but not Postgres. Is there a good example plan/query that I can use to test this demo?

Do you have a blog? I'd enjoy reading some of your tricks.

Also, how do you manage things when one of those banks decides to change the layout/format?

Hey Matt. I appreciate images in articles, but GIFs are very distracting while trying to read. May I suggest static images next time?

Procore is a construction tech "unicorn".

A helpful analysis of the S-1 can be found here: https://news.crunchbase.com/news/construction-tech-unicorn-p...

If you only knew the amount of criminals caught in Europe because of the perceived privacy of WhatsAPP.

Is there a high correlation between criminals and intelligence?
