So it looks like Venmo has a duplicate transaction bug. Found multiple transactions over the past 6 months that sent twice. How do you fail so bad at ecomm 101?

So I just lost hours of work and research. Apparently @notion.com doesn't support offline mode (something so core to a notes app, you wouldn't even expect that to be a feature you should look out for).

Why even allow you to write in offline mode on mobile when it will just be deleted

Trump fell for the long con -- believing in a ceasefire. I guess The US lost the Cold War.

Is there a sort of starter pack for building a web service? Something super lightweight that can run on a #raspberrypi but easily extensible? I'm thinking something like a docker compose that sets up your redis cache, nginx, database, your choice api language, and your frontend framework. 1/2

Just got a raspberry pi and setup HomeAssistant and AdGuard home.

Working on getting some version of go links working. Why? No idea lol

Any other recommendations on setting up some stuff locally?

Congestion pricing works

Holland is closed after 11pm and you have to go through Lincoln. Which normally means 20+ minutes of 5mph traffic.

Uber from EV to JC at midnight would be around 1 hour ten min (had a 2 hour commute couple times). With all the congestion, around $65 - $90.

Been hearing some great examples of congestion pricing working. I mean just looking outside of my apartment I can see less cars

Comparing downtown Jersey City (which I personally think has worse congestion than Manhattan) vs now:
