@liam_at_shopify We have a shipping discount function in our app, triggered via the discountAutomaticAppCreate mutation. But it only seems to run from the customer checkout page. It's not being invoked from the store's Orders page or anywhere else. Can it be made more universal?

Like a week ago I got a notification on my phone from the @amazon app with a 20% coupon for a book I had in my shopping cart. I can onlyassume I saw the notification a bit too late, 'cause when I clicked on it there was no coupon . I've been checking daily to see if it comes back

@Sosowski Even if I wanted to ignore the *obvious* issues with the platform, I get so many bot follows and ads here, that I just don't enjoy being here at all. I might not have a lot of followers anywhere else, but every single alternative is substantially better than this.

@FreyaHolmer While that's a possibility, I'd like to add a couple of options to the discussion: B) The portal would resist movement due to effort required to rotate/translate what amounts to a sort of fold in space-time (?) C) ohno

@PrimaNeutrina OMG. That's a story that could've ended in a lot of terrible ways. :/ I'm truly glad to hear you are ok. I wish you a speedy recovery. Sounds like there's quite a bit of healing to do, and I hope it all goes smoothly.

This is important. Please check this petition. @standupmaths has been fighting for what can only be described as a just cause. If you care about consistency, correct signage, geometry, soccer, or all of the above I'm sure you'll find yourself signing too mathsballs.com

@ggerena Interesante experimento, aunque me parece algo cómico que traten de vender los modelos como si "pensaran", cuando la gran mayoría del trabajo que hacen es solo manipulación de lenguaje y sub-procesos específicos para tareas puntuales.

Lol, it's been almost 10 years since the first time I brought this up, and already posted about it 5 years later, so it seem like I'm doomed to think about this terrible mistake of mankind every 5 years of so.

I was reading about TJ-2, the "1st word processor", yesterday. We could be using "Oops" instead of "Undo"! When did we make the wrong call?

I've shared this a few times already, but I STILL can't get over the fact that we could all have "Oops!" instead of "Undo" in our programs, but someone, somewhere, made the wrong call. (This is the manual for TI-Writer, but even earlier word processors like TJ-2 also had "Oops")

I also wanted to determine whether it was possible to identify the frequency components of that signal without probing the traces, with a cheap non-invasive near field probe and a Spectrum Analyzer (in this case a TinySA Ultra), and the results were better than I expected.

Excuse the crude PCB, but the etching was done in a hurry. This is my small signal interference playground and for this demo I had a 7 Mhz sine wave running next to a 10 Mhz square wave. I was surprised to see how distorted the sine wave looked on the oscilloscope at the output.

I have developed this very unhealthy obsession with decimal places and precision beyond my actual needs. Look at this 10Mhz reference. This is ridiculous, even for my unnecessarily high standards, and yet, this makes me happy in ways I can't quite describe.
