Unless I am repeatedly missing it, it’s not mentioned in the article how much money the researchers spent performing the tests. What was the budget for the AI execution? If the researchers only spent $10,000 to “earn” $400,000, that’s amazing, whereas if they spent $500,000 for the same result, that’s obviously less exciting.

The usual suggestions I’ve read about are to disable the “always on” display, disable WiFi and/or cellular, turn down the brightness, limit notifications, and so forth. However, I cannot state how much impact these would have.

Thanks for the link! I’ve been looking for something similar to hack on

> cos of Covid namecheap sold my domain to a squatter

Can you elaborate? As a Namecheap customer, this is concerning.

I have not knowingly received any “bad“ purchases from Amazon. Having heard scary stories like these has put me off ordering things from there for sure. But the convenience is just too great for me to give it up.

Maybe I am just fortunate to have not had an issue, maybe the counterfeiters are very good, or maybe I am just clueless, or some combination of these.

I try to stick to only name brand items. If there is a product that looks compelling but is from a brand I have not heard of, I generally look at both their website and other reputable retailers which sell that same product.

I largely ignore the reviews. Not necessarily because they are scammy (which I’m sure they are) but because they are so largely subjective. Reviewers will often give a one-star rating for a product because shipping was slower than expected. Or a one-star because the product didn’t package a standard USB-A cable or didn’t include AA batteries. Or a one-star rating in protest something of the company or product itself. Many times it appears the reviewer did not read the description closely enough, and accidentally purchased the wrong product, for which they blame the retailer.

I almost always purchase from Amazon.com as the seller vs. some Harry’s Tech Supply Store. Exceptions are made if there are thousands of Store reviews and a 95%+ positive rating.

In other cases, I will simply purchase the item from the official brand website, or some other retailer. It’s frustrating that Amazon allows commingling of products from different suppliers and retailers in a common bin. It’s also frustrating that other retailers like Walmart and target seem to have followed suit.

Don’t forget the $1 surcharge for the lactose-intolerant!

With coffee, non-milk substitute, and tax, a latte can run me nearly $8 :(

Yes, just like with hearing individuals, not everyone can spell well.

Often times, just like when reading, one may not notice every single letter in a given word, but with the sequence of letters, autocorrect, and context, the meaning is usually clear.

Yes, as mentioned elsewhere, finger-spelling is common when introducing a new person/entity/concept into the conversation.

Regarding the person's expressions, it's common in ASL to employ very dramatic facial expressions to assist and augment the signs themselves to help the "listener" arrive at the correct understanding and feeling.

I haven’t had an issue with iCloud and use it everyday. I wonder if it’s specific to a certain product or workflow.

But I’ve used other services (Facebook, for example) that interpret my last name as a boolean and throw errors.

Yes, even to food establishments, unfortunately.

The article subheading states:

  Airbnb needed an East Coast home.

Why particularly an east coast home vs. just another home? What's the strategic benefit of the east coast in particular?

Looks nice and clean from what I can see. Congratulations on the launch.

Taking a look at the Product Hunt landing page and the main home page, I don't see any pricing except for the current lifetime offer. I understand if you don't have it nailed down, yet.

I went to the home page and entered by email address to sign up. I got a confirmation email which took me to a page that said:

  Thank you!

  You are subscribed.

I'm not entirely sure what I just subscribed to, to be honest. I thought I was starting the onboarding process.

Lastly, do I have to manually enter the transactions, or can I upload a CSV or integrate with my bank or ? I understand if this is an MVP so those might be out of scope.

I'm loath to mention this, but although I assume the use of "tard" in the name is to signify delay, some might be sensitive to that term.

Interesting concept.

I tried it out and got the 'We've sent an email to [email protected] with a confirmation link.' message. It's been about 5 minutes and I still haven't received the confirmation message. You might want to turn some knobs so that the confirmation emails go through sooner.

Or are the confirmation emails similarly intentionally delayed? :)

Looks great!

I know it should have been more obvious, but I didn't realize the text was editable. I was looking for an 'upload your code' button. Maybe put one of those "Try Me!" badges with an arrow pointing to the code like on toy boxes?
