Are you saying that you don't want to deal with Purchase Orders?

Is that because you don't want to provide a product in advance of payment or just the overhead of creation/tracking?

I like how this looks but I have a feature suggestion....

Could you crowd-source categories/tags for the stories and then try and implement an opt-in / opt-out function that lets us exclude certain categories. I'm not even sure if it's possible but you're some of the way there.

Do the definitions of these two overlap? Apart from having music and images?

Can you please provide a reference to the regulators coming after an engineer in the UK.

Also you say regulations in the UK have been changed recently.

I'm not aware of regulations that apply to software engineers.

I think your last sentence is correct. I think author is saying that you can't make it work and THEN make it right with payment systems.

This is my opinion as well and I've been involved in the audit of a fintech system where auditors had to download EVERYTHING into excel spreadsheets and make the numbers balance before they would sign off on the books. That took a lot of time and money I'm guessing made a difference of at least .1 unicorns in the liquidity even that took place 3 years later.

I was going to say the same. There is a chance that they sailed to the location.

However a 6 hour flight from the closest major city would have given off 1500 kg of CO2 (per passenger). And presumably another 1500kg to get back again.

Do you have any paying customers?

The premium plan has a quota of approx. 4 tickets per day which feels quite low for a tool used by a company. What happens when someone submits a ticket but the plan has used up the quota? Does it just get deleted?

What do people think about the Copyright notices on the images? Can someone with knowledge of Irish law comment on how something so old can still be considered copyright? Is there separate rules for images of art in galleries?

Agreed. And having the link at the bottom as https://archive.is/XYABC without information about the link to also a questionable choice.

There's a line between "consumerism" and living a good life. I believe that many people in HN think that well made construction kits with parts that last for decades like Lego are part of having a good life rather than simply 'mass-martketed mass-producted plastic'.
