I agree that it feels a bit harsh. I feel a bit guilty.
But "silent mouths don't get fed". And I think I am speaking for a large number of users. And it's been over ten years now. So the voice of users might become a bit louder? I dunno. I read through all the features in the announcement and think "I don't need any of that. Who asked for all these things? Are they really user driven?".

And again no non-destructive adjustment layers, the saga continues!
When I talk to designers about Gimp they say "Uh, I tried it once years ago. But back then it was so archaic that you could not even change the contrast settings after you did something else to the image".
Little do they know. It is still that archaic.

Don't get me wrong. I use Gimp daily and love it. I am very grateful to the people who build it. But how this feature can be ignored after people have been begging for it for over a decade now is beyond me. As far as I can see, it is the number one reason why people do not consider Gimp as a Photoshop replacement.

I am a total music nut. So I would certainly try it if it had a web interface. For me, the barrier to install a native app on my phone is pretty high.
Looking at the permissions this app wants makes me feel even less comfortable. Access to my camera, my mic, my contacts, my identity, the data on my sd...
One of my favorite ways to discover music is Gnoosic (https://www.gnoosic.com) where I don't have to install anything and get results right away. I found some of my all time favorite bands this way.
Any other tips by the HN crowd on how to expand ones musical horizon?

Strange article
I unlocked my phone and two
accidental clicks led me to
agree to a dialog that my brain
immediately registered as suspicious
The next day, I picked up my phone and
when I launched Chrome, I immediately
noticed it was displaying a spammy URL.

Since everyone has the FB/Insta/WhatsApp apps installed, how can Apple prevent users from being tracked?
I would think when a user visits a web page, that page can deliver an insane amount of fingerprinting data along with the IP to FB. So it is easy for FB to correlate it with the users accounts which are phoning home on the same IP.
Other apps can send even more data to FB then a website. Seems hard to imagine FB can not figure out it is coming from the same phone.

Too bad you cannot embed the charts.
Are there any good embeddable stock widgets out there?

Well, have you tried it?
Every time I try to book a trip, the single compartment is grey and says that this option is not available for this trip.

Well, that is a page which describes the options.
Bit have you tried the "Book ticket" button?
For me, it simply goes to the start page.
So I still don't know how to find the routes that offer these options.

Do you update the share prices every day? How do you get the data?
