Unless I am repeatedly missing it, it’s not mentioned in the article how much money the researchers spent performing the tests. What was the budget for the AI execution? If the researchers only spent $10,000 to “earn”…
The usual suggestions I’ve read about are to disable the “always on” display, disable WiFi and/or cellular, turn down the brightness, limit notifications, and so forth. However, I cannot state how much impact these…
Thanks for the link! I’ve been looking for something similar to hack on
> cos of Covid namecheap sold my domain to a squatter Can you elaborate? As a Namecheap customer, this is concerning.
I have not knowingly received any “bad“ purchases from Amazon. Having heard scary stories like these has put me off ordering things from there for sure. But the convenience is just too great for me to give it up. Maybe…
Don’t forget the $1 surcharge for the lactose-intolerant! With coffee, non-milk substitute, and tax, a latte can run me nearly $8 :(
Yes, just like with hearing individuals, not everyone can spell well. Often times, just like when reading, one may not notice every single letter in a given word, but with the sequence of letters, autocorrect, and…
Yes, as mentioned elsewhere, finger-spelling is common when introducing a new person/entity/concept into the conversation. Regarding the person's expressions, it's common in ASL to employ very dramatic facial…
I haven’t had an issue with iCloud and use it everyday. I wonder if it’s specific to a certain product or workflow. But I’ve used other services (Facebook, for example) that interpret my last name as a boolean and throw…
Yes, even to food establishments, unfortunately.
The article subheading states: Airbnb needed an East Coast home. Why particularly an east coast home vs. just another home? What's the strategic benefit of the east coast in particular?
Looks nice and clean from what I can see. Congratulations on the launch. Taking a look at the Product Hunt landing page and the main home page, I don't see any pricing except for the current lifetime offer. I understand…
I'm loath to mention this, but although I assume the use of "tard" in the name is to signify delay, some might be sensitive to that term.
Interesting concept. I tried it out and got the 'We've sent an email to foo@example.com with a confirmation link.' message. It's been about 5 minutes and I still haven't received the confirmation message. You might want…
Looks great! I know it should have been more obvious, but I didn't realize the text was editable. I was looking for an 'upload your code' button. Maybe put one of those "Try Me!" badges with an arrow pointing to the…
What about the case where you're not migrating away, but do need to support multiple clouds for regulatory, failover, customer requirements, etc. reasons? Is there a way to still leverage the first-class features of,…
I would hope a chief technical officer with their salt would realize how powerful this setup is. Unfortunately, the lack of a cute name, branding, and marketing engine behind it may cause some to dismiss it as 'it's too…
Would you consider putting this summary in the README? Took looking at the comments to understand the “why?”
Additionally, the demographics on slide 7 point to the majority of founders being over 30. This age group often coincides with a greater likelihood of having a partner, mortgage, children, etc. Thus the risk aversion…
I'm with you on that. But my understanding of slide 55 is that requiring a credit card up front doesn't pose much of a problem to growth.
Yes. The origin of idea is the easy part. Personally, I procrastinate starting a product/service because I feel that I have to have an amazing idea before I get started. (There's nothing new under the sun.) As this…
A love the idea origin breakdown on slide 17. Over half of the product ideas (~57%) came from experiencing a problem/issue firsthand. The percentage tips to ~90% if you also include experiencing a problem/issue…
There is work in progress to remove the Zookeeper dependency: https://www.confluent.io/blog/removing-zookeeper-dependency-...

Making a ritual opt-in is fine, I guess. Making it compulsory would make me looking for another (competing) option pretty quickly.
