@elavon @CA_DMV the credit card payment page reports a CC decline when my name includes a hyphen. You need to a) accept reasonable special chars and b) provide better error messages when the decline is not bank related. See also: https://t.co/VLKn3vC28T

@sloppenheimer @yeswondwerr Last modified date on my tiddlywiki is 2005! Had no idea it was still around

[Josh Wand @joshwa]

@sloppenheimer Notepad, tiddlywiki, notational velocity, simplenote, apple notes, obsidian. But most thoughts exit my brain via chickenscratch and sketches in cheap muji notebooks or off-brand moleskines.

@MrJobsinNetwork you really need to remove "jobleads" listings from your site—they are scammers and many listings are fake.

[Josh Wand @joshwa]

@morganlinton @FinancialTimes You’ve made the typical pundit mistake of assuming your audience has the same use case as you.

[Josh Wand @joshwa]

@Eurostar are you single track running at reduced capacity, or completely blocked, and sending some trains with the expectation that there will be a single track available at some point today?

[Josh Wand @joshwa]

@ryolu_ Cursor Agent UX issue: the "Stop" button is in the exact same spot as "Accept all", so if you click Stop more than once (since it doesn't work half the time 😖), you'll then accidentally accept all changes.

@BerkeleyScanner any idea wtf is happening on 80? crazy sirens, choppers, and now google maps reports wb lane closed til 8pm, 511 has the closure on the map but not the incident list. i cannot find any reporting anywhere on this.

@DKundel @stuffyokodraws I guess it won't be implementing any new features that require new or updated packages.

Or testing any integration with 3rd parties.

Or anything with OAuth.

The universe of what this thing can do seems quite small.

@yanzhuang25 “did not appear to have activated its landing mechanisms” should not use active voice as it implies intent. “…did not have its flaps and landing gear deployed” is more neutral. These two facts are consistent with a hydraulic system failure.

[Josh Wand @joshwa]

@yanzhuang25 the Jeju plane wasn’t “crash landing”, it was following the procedure for a gear-up landing. “Crash landing” isn’t even a thing. It was a controlled maneuver but it seemed to be going too fast and did not slow sufficiently to stop before exiting the runway.

@npratc in your headline humanitarian story on Gaza there was *zero* mention of *why* there are airstrikes, what are the targets, and how they feel about Hamas’s actions and leadership. This is why people complain of bias—and I am a dedicated NPR listener and generally defend you

@bennybob60 @BerkeleyScanner Anything over $950 is a felony.

@AetnaHelp Please forward to your dev teams

@AetnaHelp your reimbursement status email template still links to a QA environment

[Josh Wand @joshwa]

@AetnaHelp It’s a bug, there for weeks at least. Also the link doesn’t go to any particular claim, just the claims page, so I have no way of knowing what reimbursement request (which isn’t the same thing as a claim) the email refers to.
