I personally find the Hacker News Extension Suite [1] to be incredibly useful.

Stripe doesn't owe anyone the right to use their services. Just as an airline can bar anyone for most any reason (unless that reason is membership in a protected class[0]), Stripe can do the same.

Hey, I'm An, the creator of SpaceHey! Thank you!! Yes, I looked at a ton of old screenshots, wikipedia sites and archive.org pages! That's how I designed most of it! I'm currently looking into all of the legal stuff which comes with music sharing, but a dedicated music feature is definitely planned! The iTunes API is just a temporary thing to fill it with some content!

In the absence of US leadership in the region it was only a matter of time before some other treaty came into being.

The link to [1] is an interesting take that questions the future of Asia as bipolar (China vs US)

Found this interesting:

> A paper from the Peterson Institute for International Economics by Peter Petri and Michael Plummer cites modelling showing that it will raise global GDP in 2030 by an annual $186bn (compared with a gain of $147bn from the CPTPP).

> It's kind of interesting how India decided that free trade with 30% of the world is less valuable than protecting its manufacturing from china

India isn't protecting it's manufacturing from china, but rather ASEAN. China has already moved up the manufacturing value chain. The low end stuff has been getting shipped to ASEAN countries for more than a decade.

> If India adopted the chinese model (what americans call "cheating")

The "chinese" model is actually the american model. It's what japan and the asian tigers all modeled their economy around.

> it could probably compete against china even with a free trade arrangement, but they're probably not going to do that.

Compete in what capacity? China and India are in different leagues now. It's sad that people really believe the nonsense they read on the news. India is even behind ASEAN countries like vietnam when it comes to manufacturing.

Nothing you wrote made any sense.

Indeed the fact that China's econ is shifting away from manufacturing is not well known [1]
