I’ve never had this bad of corruption. But not surprised.

Personally, I have seen a row of green pixels on the top or bottom + vertically flipped photos on import.

Good sleuthing!

Neat!

Your pricing + testimonial link seems broken.

Just came across a pycharm deal while browsing pypi https://lp.jetbrains.com/support-python/

I've been using Copilot for almost 2 years. I'd give it a +1.

I switched from YNAB since I wasn't really following the YNAB methodology and really just wanted something simpler (set a budget for a category & tell me at the end of the month how I did, and review my transactions for the day).

Some downsides:

* Some of the integrations are flaky (AMEX gets logged out almost every day, making me sign in again). Probably not copilot's fault, more like the plaid API.

* Meh about the yearly subscription. But hey, 95 dollars a year for something I use on a semi-regular basis isn't bad.

Seriously digging the aesthetic! Amazing job.

Our team usually uses LucidCharts but we'll give this a try. A basic folder system would go a long way in helping to keep my charts organized.

I use the basic feature set so it works well on my work laptop (no need to disable SIP).

Re:Ask HN: Good Critiques of Web3 and Crypto? on Saturday January 29, 2022 @10:35PM (#30133681)
+1. Highly informative, well researched and has made me doubt some of my own investments into crypto/NFTs.

I believe so. He might have switched or tried out Manjaro since he had issues with steam on Pop_OS.

I noticed that TEST Batch account and got a little concerned. Credit Karma is also polling my data monthly it seems. I don't like this one bit.

Re:Deleting my Google+ profile on Saturday November 16, 2013 @09:42PM (#6747302)
The way I unlinked was: 1) Account Settings -> 2) Overview -> 3) Right next to your avatar there should be a link to disconnect G+ from your youtube profile.
