Re:What do Visa and Mastercard do? An intro to card networks
on Thursday September 10, 2026 @03:47AM (#49639910)
Accurate summary. Had been working on issuing side for almost 5 years. Some of the issuing providers offer really good APIs, some of them are really bad. But overall the card networks are easier to implement than parsing banking data directly

Re:Apple has locked my Apple ID, and I have no recourse. A plea for help
on Saturday December 13, 2025 @01:51AM (#46252611)
Well from my view as European working in finance. Handling money for customers to pay (buy apps) likely requires an e money license (not sure about other states). And with this there is lot of things coming, like AML and what not.
So disabling the account might be due to regulations required for the e money license.
Of course Support should be able to resolve this if proves are given
Re:Way past its prime: how did Amazon get so rubbish?
on Sunday October 05, 2025 @03:37AM (#45479624)
A huge part for me is how they handle employees and how that makes employees steal things.
My wife ordered an iPhone and we received a salt mill and a flashlight. Called them, they said sorry send it back. But then they would not return the money cause we did not return the phone. At that point Amazon accused us for betrayal and forced us to take a lawyer to get parts of the money back.
That was our last day of using Amazon or prime video.

My washing machine displays a remaining time when you start it but is constantly wrong. So you go to the basement to find out it needs 15 more minutes. You go down 20min later and still 5min left. It is very pleasant to know when it is ready without going to the basement

Please mock everything. It's just annoying when your CI starts failing because a third party service is down multiple times a month

I oppose to that. We have unit tests calling API endpoints of third party sandbox. Once a week all of our CI fails cause third party sandbox is down
