What's the "a short history of nearly everything" of philosophy?

@ajoneil @grrowl I used to have a life

@zootm @newsycombinator Ah interesting. I'd be curious what these topics are. It wouldn't be too hard to write something that monitors the first few pages and detects which popular topics disappear

I wonder how @newsycombinator is moderated. I just saw two stories about Apple's credit card disappear. 5 minutes ago they were in the top 10, now they are both gone. (you can still read the comments if you have the link or search directly, they are just not listed anymore).

@udemy are your servers having a bad day? I'm on a very fast connection (490 Mbps) and I can't even stream your courses in 360p without buffering every few seconds. I can stream YouTube in 1080p without any blip, so I don't think it's my connection/laptop.

@bradfeehan @Uber_Support Did you not get unbanned? A bunch of people did

@arthens @Uber_Support Well that beats the heck out of using dual sim on your phone to have a new phone number and having to use the Uber eats web site because the app refuses to work 🙄

I used Uber for business once, four years ago, left the said business four years ago, have used Uber hundreds of times.. and got deactivated two weeks ago because the business account got hacked. No response from Uber yet

@bradfeehan @Uber_Support @bradfeehan my account got re-enabled last night

@arthens @Uber_Support Nope I’ve asked what date the activity was with no reply so far @Uber_Support

@bradfeehan @Uber_Support Did they say what activity?

@arthens @Uber_Support Anyone who uses Uber or Uber eats is DEAD to me I tells ya

@bradfeehan @arthens @Uber Yep, in the same bucket here

Me and ~10 of my coworkers got our PERSONAL @Uber accounts banned because our company BUSINESS account got compromised. Their solution was to ban everyone who ever used the business account. Even people who don't work at the company anymore got banned.

@Uber @Uber_Support Oh and I forgot the best part. Uber did NOT notify us that our accounts were getting suspended. I only found out when I tried to book a ride to go home after a 23 hours flight.

@Uber @Uber_Support This is a clear example of why Uber and similar services need more regulations. A taxi driver cannot refuse you service, but Uber is free to ban you for literally no reason? Let me repeat, I got banned despite doing NOTHING wrong. I'll be speaking about @Uber with my local MP.

@LastPass why is generate secure password so hidden in the android app? You don't expect your users to create accounts from their phone?

@GooglePlay Are you suggesting I change my home address every time I go on holiday to a foreign country?

@arthens That's not the experience we want you to have, Giacomo. Try these steps to change the Country Settings: goo.gl/yyTeOH. Let us know if that helps.

@GooglePlay why are you using my account country instead of my current location? I'm in Peru and I'm using a Claro sim card, but I can't check my balance because you won't let me install their app.

@ClaroPeru how do I check my balance?
