This title feels misleading somehow. I was expecting some sort of access that let them see your transactions like an open banking affordability check or to get spending habit data...but it's just a direct debit?
News came out today that MasterCard and Visa are upping their CC fees so the reasoning from the carriers makes sense. If anything it's good they're passing the saving on?
I have to agree - I see it mentioned a lot throughout articles, tweets etc when discussing funding or earnings. I've never felt it was a particularly 'accountants only' term.
I have to say I quite like this. It looks nice and plays through well.
One thing I noticed though is that when one player loses both of their lives the whole game is over. With the limited number of animals I suppose it isn't likely the game can go on for that long, but it seems odd to end the game with a loser instead of a winner.
Another issue with this is the turn selector seems to be set on random rather than cycling through the players in an order. That seems great on the surface as a sort of 'party mode' but when I played a four player game more often than not a player (Bob) would have had two turns before another (John) had even had one. If Bob turns out to be a particularly dense child he could kill the game off for everyone before John even gets a turn to guess.
I loved how easy it was to scan list of upcoming events but I did run into an issue when looking for events in London.
The 'City, State, Country' format led me to input 'London, London, England' which didn't feel...right.
Generally the first few results on any given day were for London, but it also gave me events in India, the US and Canada (I gave up checking after a while).
Why wouldn't they need to go to a coding bootcamp if they don't have any relevant experience or haven't studied a related subject? They've all chosen to retrain to find jobs in new fields.
I think "it doesn't really matter anymore" is right on the money.
.co as a TLD was essentially built around tech companies and directly marketed to them.
Plus if we're honest - most of the time people Google for companies websites that don't autocomplete in their address bar...
As an OTT example: If I want to come to Hacker News I type HN into Google and its the top result. I type two letters and click one link vs typing 'news.ycombinator.com' (typing 'news' for me brings the BBC). If a startup has put thought into their branding then a full web address isn't needed to find them. For that reason .co isn't confusing to most web users these days.
