I recall not too long ago a startup advertising exactly this idea for farms. It was some box with various sensors (and output lines) that you could configure to do a multitude of tasks


To be fair it's only kinda clickbait on HN. On their actual site the thumbnail is very clearly not a real rabbit and is visible before you access the article.


Out of interest how did you get the rights to stream the music? Cool game just curious if itl stick around.

I would definitely like some sort of “decade” option if at all possible so you can stick to films of a certain era. Some of the older ones I had no ability to guess (which is fine, just would like to weed those out for my own fun).

Also as others stated, some made for the movie tracks would be nice!


Check out Photopea, it has a ton of features and is fairly performant in the browser. It also seemingly copies the UI of Photoshop but impressive nonetheless.


Spains banks (I’ve used two so far) simply use your ID number which is used in a lot of places and not considered secret and enforces a 4 digit password.

It’s an absolute joke.


I wondered once about this, but it kind of make sense from the point of view of usability.

Unlike any webservice, you usually have very few attempts to make a successful login before getting locked out, so even if it's four digits, the odds of a successful brute force attack are very low


I suppose so, I just find it funny really that my bank has less password requirements than most (if not all) online services I use


Bank Of America requires to tell them a 2FA code sent over SMS, when SMS literally says:

   <#>BofA: DO NOT share this code. We will NEVER call you or text you for it.
No, it wasn't scam, seen that process physically visiting a branch on agent's display multiple times.


My bank does that for in person visits but you key in the code on a PoS style keypad at their desk


Most banks in Spain require physical presence in the branch for 2fa


You mean to set up a second factor, they require you to go into a branch?


I guess you'd get better results if you knew the font the site uses (which in many cases you could figure it out pretty quickly) or even just override every font with your own.


Certain browser features/apis are only available when in a secure context https://www.digicert.com/blog/https-only-features-in-browser... so I imagine this might be a reason you would want it.

That being said I don't know why you would pay for an application that does this but I guess I'm not the target market.


Yep. A lot of OAuth integrations will refuse to work on HTTP, too. Some have a `localhost` exception to that restriction, but not all.


This long article helpfully forgets to mention, that localhost/loopback addresses are considered secure without https.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Secure...


Some features have still moved to TLS-only even for localhost. "Considered secure" is somewhat orthogonal to "requires TLS". You can only use HTTP/2 with TLS, for instance, whether or not you are in a "secure context".


Am I missing something? The article doesn’t state that at all. The lab was used for creating covid 19 tests


I don't think thats true, what jokes are you talking about specifically?

I always used Ryan Air a while back when I didn't have much money and needed to get somewhere. I dislike them now because of the removal of hand luggage by default. Additionally I find they're not even that much cheaper than alternatives nowadays which makes it harder to put up with their smaller seats and in general worse service.


I had it reappear 3 times when I was trying it out moving between pages. First time was before I created an account though in the sandbox. Not sure exactly the replication steps for the second and third time it showed up.


A complicating factor is that there are at least 2 different tours for different sections of the interface (e.g. high-level dashboards vs plan interface).

Do you think it would be better to infer from one tour dismissal that a user never wants to see another tour for anything else?


I would say just write a tutorial page (or pages) or a record a video to show usage. Those tours really are useless.


I've had some less tech savvy users say they appreciated them. Demo videos might be a good alternative though... until other folks roll up and ask for a UI tour to show them where the demo video collection is :P
