So? Read the article, and? Some pretty basic payment flows.. Nothing about settlements, payment card messaging flow (you see a simplified logic in the article), nothing about other payment rails.. Come on.

Beautiful con, tbh. I don't welcome this behavior (borderline criminal), but you have to admit - well played.

Not even a wager. Just out of ~100C sauna after 20 mins straight. Pretty normal, and I'm not Finnish. In that area though.

Lots of empty emotional statements, generalisations with no facts supporting them. Why bring this here? Release your anger somewhere else and really think about the issue before posting rants.

Otherwise, a really nice overview on the Venezuelan oil. Thank you.

EDIT: oh, I see I'm in the minority with such opinion here. Well, that's ok, let the bashing begin..

It hurts my eyes to see spelling mistakes in error messages. I know English is not your first language, but, dude, in the age of autocorrect and AI, it is sloppy and screams incompetence. Not what you want anybody to see when using your interpreter.

Otherwise, what a cluster*uck of a code this is.. I am amazed and appalled at the same time.

Nonsense. If 27% of GDP is suddenly gone, how US economy could be the largest? (rest of the world can substitute US trade between itself)

+2, very nice movie. Might be very eye-opening for any some about what it was like under USSR umbrella...

Played video games on ZX Spectrum and some Soviet computer at home. Wanted to learn to code games as a teen, took a course in Basic, very shallow. Then in high school some exposure to Turbo Pascal (90s), learned a bit, but wasn't great.

Then really learned Python in 2010s trying to solve a real-life problem - had to scrape an ecom website, used Scrapy. Now it's Go, quite complex projects, about to launch our SaaS startup.. took a while..

Spot on! If you add car tuning or PC overclocking, you might as well call it a hobby.

Watch this, where he goes through the questions and explains how he did it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Mx_xhiIRpw

I'm pretty good with Excel, my main tool at the job for over 20 years. I understand how he did it, but it's just really humbling...

I still think quality of what you do with Excel (idea) is more important than how you do it (skill).

Beautiful text, easy to read, one can immediately feel that author knows what she is doing. Light, but long and sad at the same time. With an aftertaste of hope at the end. Nice work.
