I don’t know what to say about handling sweat and rain, but I went running a few times with my airpods and also washed them a few times with and without case and they are still working :D

Did you try to configure it to the same specs as the base Mac Pro? I tried and it is 9000usd vs 6000usd
I have to agree with @marcc, the best is the one you are good/familiar with. For me that is Laravel and Vue.js

If you are good with .NET and there are no real limitations for you to build with that, go for it with .NET

Re:Show HN: Contrast Safe – Check Colors Against WCAG on Wednesday May 01, 2019 @11:34AM (#19798041)
Hi guys,

I have been looking for a tool to help me check the contrast ratio of the colors I use, against the WCAG standard, but none of the available ones satisfied my needs, so I created my own.

This is my first macOS App. I made sure to keep the size small, so it takes only ~4mb.

I am planning to add more features, so let me know if you have any ideas.

The app is 60% off until 8th of May, but if anyone is interested I have 10 promotional codes to give to HackerNews users, so please leave a comment if you want one.

I can’t believe ordering by upload date in search doesn’t work. This hasn’t been working properly for at least a year or two. I don’t know before, but this is crazy
Re:Ask HN: Online banks where I can open account worldwide? on Sunday November 25, 2018 @07:58AM (#18526687)
haha you are right
Re:Ask HN: Online banks where I can open account worldwide? on Sunday November 25, 2018 @07:32AM (#18526601)
Yea, you can open it from wherever you are, you just have to know someone in one of the supported countries and you should have a valid passport. A friend of mine opened it while I was living in Italy and there was no problem. The address is used to send you the card. As soon I received his card, I sent him all the details and he started using it through ApplePay and online. But thanks for pointing it out. I didn't make it clear enought

Yea, thanks for pointing that out, you are right, and that is why I love it :D But I see how that can be a problem to some people :) I am the kind of person that tends to focus on the positives.

Thanks for that, didn't know. I am curios if you are insured and even if someone steals your money, you get it back.

I love N26. I use it everyday. It is free, great conversion rate etc. it even works with Apple Pay. I know I sound like a paid advertiser, but I swear I just love their service

Some nice things: - you can pay with it during a flight, not possible with most of the online bank - depending on the country you can apply for overdraft - you can get cards that include different types of insurance, free withdrawals in any currency etc - you can have a savings account - you can even open business accounts and many more

Affiliate link, we will both get €15: https://n26.com/r/razvana9235

I would suggest Laravel!
