YC S27's ScamMyGrandparents.com lets you simulate these against your own grandparents, so you can shame and educate them when they naively wire your college trust fund to a safe account. You are able to refund either the whole amount, or keep some for yourself since they won't know any better. The cost of service is variable depending on how many homes they own.
Perhaps provide an example or two?
The screenshot about pho is funny to me. Bean sprouts are not a good source of fiber. Noodles are not especially healthy. The broth base is not fish sauce, nor is fish sauce where broth gets most of its sodium. Slop city!
tumor (noun) An abnormal growth of tissue resulting from uncontrolled, progressive multiplication of cells and serving no physiological function; a neoplasm
Interesting that onkernel.com intentionally animates and slows down the loading of the web interface, making it harder to scroll and scan the site. Irony or good design?
Can you elaborate on what is expected outside of being mandated?
Does anyone know if there is a tool or platform that makes it easy to make/publish this type of "leave footnotes on an article"? The UX here is nice and simple, and I think there is utility in sharing feedback this way (vs. blockquotes in email, or Google Docs comments, etc).
Do you have a source or examples?
At least 4 different types of hops that can be mixed in different ratios, at different times during brewing, etc.
And consistent <250ms will feel like magic — try pinboard as an example of lightning fast UI
Knowing that hckrnews.com exists helps me, too. I use HN's built-in "no procrastination" feature to prevent checking too often throughout the day,
Maybe the rest of the "Make something people want" poster says "...then take it away"?
I wouldn't use the word secret at all in this case, frankly
I have a horrifying vision of huge "dongles" everywhere ... like USB/headphone/etc but for cars. $100 each, aftermarket is $50 but they slowly ruin your batteries, etc.
My favorite part was knowing it was an AI but still feeling at least a little defensive at parts
Where did this title come from?
Draw on a whiteboard
I walked by it every day and can confirm. They didn't even have an inviting sign, or anything about what they were selling. The glass was a little reflective so you could barely see some mirrors and glasses on walls/pedestals. I'll bet most people walking by thought it was a typical optical store (but with only one boring frame option!).
Basecamp is a decent company and is actively blocking this effort: https://m.signalvnoise.com/employee-surveillance-software-is...
The escape button escaped from the touchbar!
Would a lightning dongle still work in these situations?
In this case Finder wins pretty easily IMHO. "Enter" to rename, edit in place, "Enter" to commit ("Esc" to cancel).
Every good vuln scanner needs a custom typeface — excited to hear about Flan Scan Sans!
Related question – Is it possible to have two phones with the same phone number? Maybe an iPhone and a flip phone, for example.
I wonder if there's a way to ask the right questions so they can come to the conclusion that X is a bad idea, on their own and before doing it. For example, asking about the merits of X, then acknowledging them and asking about possible downsides. If they don't mention the downside you had in mind, ask about other potential downsides. You'll also learn more about their decision-making process, how deeply they've thought through it, what weights they ascribe to the various pros/cons, etc.
