You’ve come to the right place!

This is where the Stripe CEO will reply to you when all their support processes have failed, and you have no other course to save your business. That’s the way all $122billion companies operate.

If he hasn’t been here yet, stay on hold he’ll be here soon.

Patrick? Catastrophic customer support fail call for you….

(Call waiting music….) Oh dear he’s on Christmas holidays. I’m pretty sure their automated processes suspended your account for good reason. If you feel this is not correct, email your case for why you should be allowed by us to have a working business to [email protected]

What’s your goal?

Source code is not to be read like a book. If you read it, you must do so with a goal, context and purpose.

I flagged this post. Not credible enough for HN front page.

Really ridiculous. Surely no one can believe Vr headsets out sold Xbox consoles? Who here honestly actually believes the concept that VR headsets are outselling xboxes? No one.

Where’s the actual proof?

And even if it’s true it’s just because of the chip shortage which makes it meaningless.

Fake news.

What proof is required that the money is legally obtained?

Or is it simply open money laundering for international criminals?

It’s money that matters. All the poor people who have a problem with this scheme need to be realistic about how the world works and stop complaining.

(Snark, to be clear).

But no systemd distro is saying “we want to dump systemd but we can’t because it’s too tightly Coupled” are they?

Or maybe the maintainers are I don’t know do you have links to show this is the case?

Systemd is used by all major linux flavors because it’s the best solution for the problems it solves.

The distro maintainers are too smart to be stuck with systemd against their will.

And it’s linux …. make a better solution, if it’s truly better it’ll be used.

I just want to pre-empt the inevitable bitching about systemd to say I think it’s awesome and incredibly useful and consistent and powerful and I’d take it any day over the mess of stuff that filled systemd’s duties before.

Sure it isn’t perfect, but what software is?

And let me ask a question, if systemd is crap, why does every major distro use it? If it was truly crap then surely the distro builders would use the alternative?

If you’re a developer, your employer is using git checkins as the primary measure of whether you are working.

You’ll need a script to automate credible git activity.
