When this happens I disable JS for the website permanently and reload, sometimes it is not live loaded and the article is readable.

I have been sharing this to try to raise awareness, the impact is going to be high!

Companies are really struggling to optimise their suppliers, it is pretty hard. If they start on bill of materials they can often sort by most common parts and then it becomes a graph problem finding “cheapest” paths between often traversing four tables bom <> parts <> suppliers <> tariffs.

The really hard part is mapping parts down to sku level to tariff codes. Specially at scale (think datasets with many million rows).

Either way we built https://www.searchtariff.com/?q=lights as an entry point and and have been getting more and more worried with the market as we help companies out. They are not ready for this at all and it is bitting deep. Let us know if you also need help mapping products to tariffs, we have a product for that!

Alternatively we also welcome feedback!

Fascinating article, fun that even blood has tariffs https://www.searchtariff.com/?q=blood

I wonder when we are going to start seeing proper effects of all these tariffs in the market.

In my case I was doing iRacing with a cable, it requires the Oculus app to run for the link to work. Which in turn needs the login to be active.

I was considering buying the Quest 3 this morning, this outage is timely. The fact that I can't use my perfectly working headset to play an offline game because facebook is down, makes me wonder if I should go for a different provider. Any recommendations? Excluding apple vision pro since it is too expensive.

Stackoverflow not having a public whitelabled version was their demise, not having something for a public community that is sellable without having to go through the Area51 provess was their demise. Discourse has been eating their lunch. https://www.discourse.org/customers

In many countries it is illegal to change anything with the vehicle without going through a homologation afterwards, unless the parts are already homologated. This happens because it affects security and can be a danger to others and you. The consequences can range from fines to the destruction of the car.

This sounds very similar to the toothpaste and dental products with polypeptides that these guys do https://www.credentis.com/en/publications/ (edit: replace link of products with publications)

The printed money is effectively diluting everyone's else's money. So technically you could think of it as an indirect tax, because the overall currency value drops.

Similar to a company emitting new shares to pay employees. It's the shareholders who are paying the cost via dilution.
