That's why you run 4 or so pots of plain water through it afterwards.
If it's self hosted, you shouldn't care if it costs money. Let the person/org decide if they want to use it, just provide an interface for it. There are tons of free, self hosted apps that have tons of notification…
I think this may be generational. I'm GenX and growing up it was no big deal for my parent's generation (yes, the boomers) to have a drink a night. Even among people of my generation now it wouldn't be uncommon.…
I went through school in the 70s and 80s and always had school lunch. I hardly saw anybody bring lunch to school. Maybe it was because of the schools I went to, but they were public schools. They were "good" schools…
The state of Minnesota, under Tim Walz, had all sorts of heavy handed, government mandated rules about things. According to the decree, people couldn't visit relatives, couldn't go to funerals, in reality, could not go…
Because it's decent and open late. I have routinely gone to one where at 11pm and there's a line 15 deep. This isn't entirely made up of crappy cars either, ie. not the stereotypical "looking for cheap food" crowd,…
> I have yet to find one that supports tap to pay Interesting. I haven't seen one in years that doesn't support it in the US. Most of the time even when I hand my card to a cashier because the terminal is by them, they…
> Notice how some airports (IAD, IAH) specifically have "International Airport" in their codes. Since this is HN, we'll get ultra-pedantic... IAH is technically "Intercontinental Airport of Houston", not "international"…
Look for a fiduciary or a for fee planner (not a commission based one). They don't have a stake in selling you specific things, they just charge a flat rate. Whether they're any good or not is a different story, but…
I was when I lived in MN. I had a subscription for unlimited car washes (I did the "medium" level). When I commuted in winter I would wash my car at least once a week, sometimes twice. Summer, maybe once every other…
Part of eating a bar (or similar) is to have a sporting event on TV so you can watch it while being out. I would be upset if someone was turning those off in that type of place. If you don't like it, don't go there.
At BJs (smaller version of Costco), they have self checkout almost exclusively. They also have a constant deal of "mix and match" 2 types of potato chips. The problem is that their system is not setup to ring those up…
As were Ted Lasso, See, and Servant (all done now).
Go to any watch forum and post something about wearing your watch that's rated for 100m to wash your hands and watch the flames come in. They'll argue (maybe rightfully so) that a water resistance rating is not the same…
Facebook Marketplace is great for this type of thing. I know many HN'ers hate FB, but it's really easy to move stuff there. You definitely still get tire kickers, but like CL it's local, so you're not shipping. I just…
There is no monopoly, see MegaBus, FlixBus, OurBus, many others, not to mention specific city to city routes. For example, I used to live in the Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN area and there are specific shuttle busses to go…

I don't care that as a man in my 50s that I look like a teenage girl with my phone, but I immediately put a Popsocket on any phone that I own. They are wonderful.
That sucks, but just seems weird in general, not to you specifically. You never hear about these things happening on random cheap Android phones or PC laptops. Well, at least I don't, but you hear about them…
MN has neither. They did away with emissions tests...20 years ago? I don't think they've ever had a safety inspection, at least I don't remember it (I'm in my mid-50s), but maybe it was part of the emissions test at the…
If you're using a database, use something like Postgres that has this functionality built in[0]. You can store IPs, networks, etc. in a native format that has all sorts of functionality available out of the box. [0]…
Hmm...maybe it's generational? When I was a teenager (mid-80's) I knew what my friend's parents did for a living. It's not like we sat around and discussed it, but I could have told you what the majority of my friend's…
Haha, yep. She refers to it as the literal "just driven to the grocery store by a little old lady" car (because it's basically that and Home Depot). She even got the lowest trim level (on purpose) so it doesn't have…
My wife drives about once a week, probably less on average. She has a 2013 Honda CR-V, only 15,000 miles on it. We live in Minnesota, so have cold temps, but the car in a garage. The car always starts. We've replaced…
