I mean, it's a $50 card being used at an amusement park. Not exactly a huge fraud risk. I guess good work on cracking down on it when it was chip and pin.

[Ken Pickering @kpick]

@Vanillagiftcard: Your gift card solution is horrible, bordering on fraud. My daughter can't eat at her field trip because your system rejected her purchase and she's hours away. Your customer support team is useless to resolve.

Strongly encourage no one use it.

As we approach @trinodb's 10th birthday, @mtraverso, @electrum32, and I reflected on the past ten years and wanted to share our journey from #prestodb to #trinodb. It didn't seem like it at the time, but it was the best thing to happen to our community.

A lot of work to do but this week felt like we have the foundation for a 🌎 class software company.

Enjoy homeownership.
