They are probably doing it to avoid account sharing?

This is the answer here, gyms across the country have implemented nearly identical functionality (bar codes or QR codes are required on entry, staff are trained to be aware of customers sharing or using shared screenshots of the above codes, and the codes have a very short lifetime.)

should you and your kid speak french or spanish, "la bible des codes secrets" by Hervé Lehning, the bible of secret codes, is a book I greatly enjoyed as a young teen. it walks you through the history of cryptography until the current times, and has a lot of examples where you can try it out yourself. it is almost not coding-oriented, with only the last 3 chapters explaining modern-day encryption, but as far as my experience goes, few ten-year old enjoy reading documentation or textbook-style books. This one is very didactic, and also an interestin tour through history.

xcancel, nitter and twitterwebviewer are all down. does anyone know of an alternative to those?

Well, they do seem to have a sense of humor. The "damn you tricked me" bit reuses your phrasing, yet if the shaming were serious, it would mean they are completely impervious to your arguments. Pyon read to me as someone more technically than socially skilled, who might have a social circle where it is customary to play the obnoxious expert so that nitpicking is funny rather than aggressive. They may not have registered that this is an inside joke, and what would have landed as lighthearted in their circle ended up hurtful and toxic out in the wild.

Wait a second is that ad thing ironical? Not a big fan of covert advertising.


The UK? I should really update my geographical knowledge, here I was, convinced Florida was in China


Fun fact: 'they' are human beings too and some of their interests do allign with yours. They have kids too and might want them to have a proper future, they don't want to fall I'll to cancer either etc


No, they are comically evil mustache twirlers according to HN.


I believe that they believe what they are doing is good.


Hallucinations come up when asking knowledge bases questions, such as "In React’s Canary Fragment refs API, which FragmentInstance method returns a flat array of DOMRect objects for all children?" Or "Over what years did Roubini and Sachs examine 15 OECD countries when assessing trends in tax-to-GDP ratios?" While to me those may seem hyper-specific and unlikely to come up in a real context, students will absolutely ask questions similar to these.


I just asked the first question to gpt 6 sol medium and it replied:

> getClientRects() returns the flat array of DOMRect objects for the Fragment’s first-level DOM children. source: https://react.dev/reference/react/Fragment

2nd question it replied:

> They examined 1960–1986 for the 15 OECD countries. Source: https://www.earth.columbia.edu/sitefiles/file/about/director...

Are these hallucinations?


principle of sparcity. for mutations, we assume it only happened once considering how highly unlikely it is to happen. it is what helps us determine how species are related. if notable differences are detected, like in that case or for example in the case of wings (bird wings vs bat wings), we do an exception.


may I ask how you set it up? I suppose you still have to enter your purchases manually, right?


Not OP of the comment, but I self host https://actualbudget.org/ and pair it with enable actual from here: https://github.com/2manyvcos/enable-actual

Pairs up with my EU and Revolut bank perfectly, auto imports transactions, most of which you can set rules that auto assign to categories. And as they said 90% is automated, I just categorize a few transactions a week manually.

I tried something like envelope budgeting before in excel but didn't work really since I was lazy to manually add transactions, this is much easier. Budegting for a house and a USA trip without worries now :)


Several budgeting apps use open banking api to connect to bank accounts and update the entries (money in or money out). Once it's synced you can assign the appropriate category. Usually, the budgeting app "learns" over time and it does the categorisation automatically based on the payee and your budget.

The system isn't perfect but, in my experience, it works 90% of the time. The remaining 10% requires manual categorisation. I suppose it also depends on how simple or complex your budget and your spending are.
