Their bosses booked the team into the Motel Mo.om in the Italian city of Milan but had confused it with the nearby Mo.om Hotel.

I’m surprised that two hotels in the same area are allowed to have essentially the same name.

A lot of restaurants add on an extra fee if you pay by card

In the US, this is pretty recent… It’s only been allowed since last year. Previously, MasterCard and Visa’s merchant agreements both said that merchants must not charge a fee for paying by card, and the store could have their MC/Visa agreement terminated if they were caught charging fees. Some stores got around this by offering a cash discount rather than charging a fee for cards. There was a big lawsuit and the rules got changed as a result.

In Australia, there’s a lot of rules around card fees/surcharges. I linked to an article in my previous comment. The business can’t charge more than it costs them to process card payments, and they’re only allowed to list it as a separate fee if they have a fee-free way of paying (like with cash). If they only take card, they need to include the card fee in the advertised prices.

This is one of the reasons merchant fees are so high in the USA.

In Australia, merchant fees for a medium-sized business are an average of 0.75 to 1.5% for credit cards and 0.25% to 1% for debit cards, according to the Reserve Bank of Australia (https://www.accc.gov.au/consumers/pricing/card-surcharges).

In the USA they’re often over double that. Some payment processors charge 3% or more for credit card processing.

I’d love to see an integration with PhotoStructure in addition to Immich.

If this was done in the USA, a lot of airlines would struggle or even collapse if they couldn’t figure out how to adapt.

The four biggest airlines in the US (United, Delta, American and Southwest) all lose money on flights. The way they make a profit is through their co-branded credit cards. The banks pay the airlines to purchase miles from them to use as points, and one of the primary ways the bank makes the money to do that is from interest payments.

I’m not saying that interest rates shouldn’t be limited, just that there’d be some major impact since a lot of the financial industry is funded by interest payments.

How’s it compare to Hoarder/Karakeep?

Because of various privacy legislation, and people not wanting Google to track them as much, they stopped syncing the data to Google servers. As someone who’s worked at big tech companies, my guess would be that storing so many people’s location history was flagged as an issue during a privacy audit.

It’s entirely local now. You can enable encrypted backups and back up the data, however you can really only have the data on one device now, and the web version is gone.

That’s what the name means :D
CR2032 is 20mm in diameter and 3.2mm thick.

Some smart home devices use the CR2450 rather than the CR2032.

TypeScript doesn’t need the “function” keyword for a method in an object or on a class though.

const foo = {
  bar(): string {
   ... 
  } 
}

which I assume is doable because the syntax is unambiguous.

In PHP’s case, the method syntax should also be unambiguous.

The first programming language I used was Visual Basic (both VBA in Excel, and VB3 then VB6). I think it used redim to resize arrays.

PHP’s object orientation is similar to languages like Java and C#, which is what I was comparing to.

It enforces scalar types (string, int, etc) at runtime if you enable strict mode. There’s also static analysis tools like PHPStan and Psalm that will flag issues at build time.

Can we talk about PHP functions with typehints too?

public static function foo(): string {

Practically every other language with similar syntax does this instead:

public static string foo() {

Older variants used DIM for arrays and LET for other variables. DIM was originally called that because it was setting the dimensions of the array.

In modern BASIC variants, DIM has become a backronym: “declare in memory”.

had to upgrade due to DDOS

If you keep getting DDoS attacks, then I’d recommend getting DDoS protection from your hosting provider, or using Cloudflare. A lot of hosting providers can provide DDoS protection if you pay a bit extra per month.

Tuya make Zigbee products too… They’re just not good Zigbee products. I don’t think they’re officially Zigbee certified and have some weird behaviour, similar to some of the older generation of Aqara devices (their newer ones are fine though)

CR2450 has nearly 3x the capacity of the CR2032 (620mAh vs 225mAh) so the benefit of using it is that you’ll have to replace it far less frequently.

Thanks. I looked into it a bit more and it looks like they actually want to increase what can be done in userland, to reduce the reliance on kernel mode. That’s still a good solution, if things the anti-cheat code needs to do can be moved into userland.

AFAIK Microsoft have plans to block kernel level anti-cheat on Windows. After the CrowdSec issues last year, they’re rethinking which types of programs should even be allowed to run in kernel space.

Edit: I was wrong. They actually want to increase what can be done in user mode, to reduce reliance on kernel mode code.
