I've changed from WordPress to Vue to React but can still use my login e2e test as I depend on a DOM element ID. Eg: #username_field, #password_field, #submit_btn.

I've definitely experienced this trap first hand, transforming a web app from a monolith to a distributed app with a ton of bells and whistles. I think having some years of experience under your belt transforms you from longing for complexity to striving for clean and simple solutions. Especially if you're also responsible for moving the project forward in the long run.

The question should be, how to not see a satellite. Even looking up for 3 minutes I can see at least one satellite flying over on a clear night. For context, this is rural, south-west France (Lot-et-Garonne) with little to no light pollution.

Since yesterday, Instagram is able to circumvent ad blockers probably by no longer using a different domain for ad "posts". I had to write a (tampermonkey) script to filter out the many ads between posts.

Binance has a more thorough KYC process than any financial institute / bank I've ever head to deal with . To the point that I've had to submit documents about proof of income. It feels Reuters has a bone to pick as there is no exchange bootlicking regulators like Binance.

Have been using TSX for email templates for quite some time now. Works really well with just ReactDOMServer.renderToStaticMarkup() and juice to inline css.

jsx mail also accepts tsx. it's important to remember that jsx has several things that pure React doesn't have

It will not easily disappear, but there is a clear negative sentiment around crypto, even more with the current heat waves and energy crisis. I don't think it looks good on the balance sheet of institutions, and institutional buy-in was a major driver of the recent crypto bull run.

As a crypto enthusiast I looked into what it would take to accept ADA payments on my membership site without relying on a payment provider. I was surprised by the quality of the documentation and realized it was quite feasible to implement. I decided against it as the sentiment around crypto (even a proof of stake chain like Cardano) would probably have a negative net result on customer acquisition and retention. It would have been a fun endeavour with a potential poor outcome.

Yes, that's a big problem. You might harm your reputation including a Crypto payment option.

There are people, myself included, that appreciate a crypto payment inclusion.

I am proud to say I have used crypto to buy a physical souvenir, a steam game, and a yearly subscription to a service.

I would gladly do that more if they allow me.

Just out of curiosity. What is the fraction of these transactions in crypto compared to those with other payment methods?

Compared to my other transactions? Very small.

The best "comparison" I can make is this: - I buy random shit online every now and then, also from Amazon. That one souvenir I got for me and a friend was about 40 dollars worth, and I paid with crypto that time. - I buy steam games maybe one every 3 months? So buying that one game with crypto is a small percentage, yes, but also probably the next game I'll get will also be with crypto payment, so it will increase the percentage slowly? - For the service, I have paid maybe 15 dollars for similar services in my life. That one that accepts crypto is also the best one I have found yet, and to that I have paid about 80 dollars so far. So for that, the percentage is up there, and I'll continue paying them that way!

You are proud because you used a specific form of payment?

Yes. I am proud to be one of the few that have used crypto to buy something "regular". To use that thing in the way it is promised to be, and not as gambling or scams. So yes, I'm proud to have done that.

That’s what everyone was doing in the early days. Hell, I paid a small fortune for a pizza in 2012. It still would never cross my mind to be proud to use any form of payment that’s just preposterous.

Agree to disagree, I guess. I'm glad you did use it for pizza back then, and I hope more of us use it for pizza in the near future. You are one of the few that don't just gamble and buy nfts.

So Stripe is harming their reputation for offering crypto payment services? Same with Moneygram? I don't think so.

They waited long enough for regulatory clarity on crypto (and still are waiting for other rules to go through) and they have already deployed their offerings today.

So there is no 'big problem' and those companies are choosing the cryptocurrencies that will survive regulations.

I tried buying ADA two years ago.

Practically impossible.

I bought some last week with the mobile Revolut app. It was dead easy. The 2.5% fee is a bit much for my liking though.

Ubuntu / Linux definitely has come a long way. I used to compile kernels, write X11 config files, now it just works. Timed perfectly with my lack of time / willingness to tinker for hours to get stuff working.

Quite a drastic change of direction it was. I wasn't willing to pay what Google asked for my sites maps usage and went to Mapbox until they stated raising prices. Currently using OSM with osm-static-maps https://github.com/jperelli/osm-static-maps It's still pretty complicated to run your own tile-server, something I would love to do.
