   Real easy to use-- at first. As time went on it got harder and harder to get it to work. Finally it 'lost' my password, so I couldn't use it, and 'Support' never got back to me; but they did send me a 'customer satisfaction survey.' Hah!

   👎 Cons:    No customer support!

• Americans are spending billions on stuff they forget to cancel

  I use a service called Privacy [1] to generate virtual card numbers, which I than use with all of my subscriptions. All of the virtual cards are tied to a physical credit card used as the funding source. I get a notification every time a card is charged or a charge is denied (if it's above the set limit or no longer active). This has saved me from fraud where a single-use virtual card # I used to pay for airport... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Gift cards that work with tutanota.com? Or private virtual cards?

  Ideally would be something I could buy anonymously with cash since I want to use it on a health related site, but I'd accept a private/name hidden card at least. Not sure if privacy.com cards, wise, or others might work with it. Source: 5 months ago

  Lol, Also helpful tip. If you're going to use Fubo you should also use privacy.com. It lets you set up single use cards with spending limits so you don't accidently get charged. You can cancel the cards at anytime too. Source: 5 months ago

• Oh Erlang... where have you been all my life?

  RE: HTTP/Web Sockets/TCP/UDP/etc. - check out NineNines libraries: Ranch (TCP Socket Acceptor), Cowboy (HTTP Server), Gun (HTTP client), and CowLib (General HTTP/SPDY library) are pretty good from what I hear. Source: over 2 years ago

• Build an Elixir Redis Server that's 100x faster than HTTP

  Ranch is a pretty well optimized and battle hardened tcp acceptor. It powers the Cowboy/Phoenix server which scales to extreme level of concurrency and low latency. Cowboy uses ranch to pool and accept connections and I believe it uses {active,once}. https://github.com/ninenines/cowboy https://github.com/ninenines/ranch. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
