I still remember "You have been a bad user, I have been a good Bing". It was refreshing to see a chat with some personality at the time.

> dynamically created them (react)

I'm curious if this worked because as far as I'm aware, most of these are basic HTTP requests where the meta tags are parsed without the JS being executed.

Why would you shoehorn practices from Java on Nodejs? A lot of those patterns would be unnecessary on JS.

At the end of the day, those patterns were created to keep things maintainable, not just use them for the sake of it.

This is amazing. I've been using Dukascopy and Wise, but good to see more options, for my country. Just curious, did you use LLMs to parse and organize all those information? Also, how did you source the EMIs for this list?

> It currently has 170+ banks/EMIs and it's mostly focused on individuals and businesses from Europe

Europe and US/Canda have plenty of options, would love to see more EMIs for other regions. Still a great list.

People in developed countries take online payments for granted. Let me give you another perspective from a third world country.

Where I live, the international payments are restricted. Most of the neobanks/payment only issue payment cards for EEA or USA and Canada. There are a few options like Dukascopy Bank, but the fees are expensive especially for micro transaction. So cryptocurrency (not all though) does have some utility for people like us.

That being said, I do agree that crypto ecosystem is filled with grifters and scammers and only a select few cryptocurrencies are actually useful.

I don't understand the point. This is built on Optimism stack, so effectively same as using Optimism. Why not just integrate Coinbase products into Optimism then?

> broke a $42,000 porcelain sculpture by artist Jeff Koons Thursday.

> Herald that Gamson offered to buy the balloon dog’s remains for $15 million on the spot.

Wait, so the broken sculpture is now worth more than before? How does this even make sense.

Sounds like a Black Mirror episode.

Exactly. There's no excuse, a "unicorn" company with millions of users such as Snapchat can surely do better.

> 2. Canvas based web frameworks become viable as an alternative to the DOM.

I would further add that a lot of companies will jump on this bandwagon until they realize they actually need SEO and accessibility and then move back to something similar to SSR.

A bronze age civilization had brick houses and but I wonder why until a few decades ago, south Asian villages still mostly had mud houses. Given such a long time, one would expect brick houses even in remote villages.

Just checked. All have been redeemed once again.

Exactly, it's either targeted for begineer or for advanced. Very few resources on advanced-begineer or intermediate level.
