For what it's worth, based on somewhat frequent posts to r/cruise and Cruise Critic, travel routers are very often confiscated by ship personnel and held for pickup until departure day. They appear on major cruise lines prohibited items list (but curiously are banned on Carnival but not their subsidiary [name-redacted]).

Absolutely makes sense to have something like that, for genuine scammers, mass offenders, etc. But being but on that list for a few measly test payments to make sure your software is working properly? That to me sounds LUDICROUS.
You'll be fine. BUT be sure to keep your live card out of a testing environment, because that's a PCI violation.

My list of seven things I wish I would not hear as an autist:
1. Loud refrigerators / appliances / computer fans
2. ICE engines with mechanical problems / modified exhaust
3. Smoke alarm replace-battery beeping
4. Noisy airflow (bad air gaps / glass insulation) in vehicles and rooms
5. Bad electric noise (bad AC/DC converters)
6. Emergency vehicle sirens that are too loud (I think this is a US phenomenon)
7. Television commercials that increase in volume over ordinary programming
I'm sure there are many more out there

You can download the whole visualizer as a simple html file and use it this way. No need to obfuscate or sanitize anything at all.
Thank you for sharing - I misunderstood - this is a javascript visualizer, and has no additional analytic capability beyond visualization, or did I miss something?

I use this tool to visualize my queries: https://explain.dalibo.com/ (there's also https://www.pgexplain.dev/, last time the output was less nice, but now both look the same)
I read your profile and see that you are a CTO of a fintech. Given that, by what method do you navigate that tool's [explain.dalibo.com] assertion of "It is recommended not to send any critical or sensitive information"?
Is there an explain plan sanitizer that is helpful for this situation?

How long does it take to break even on the carbon output of asphalt demolition and haul-away vs carbon input of optimal density trees planted in the same space?

Has anyone noticed that there are now 78 comments on this post and no Rioters checking in? Have I missed something?
On any HN corporate layoff post, we should expect some volume of named company FTEs or impacted folks commenting. There seems to be a pattern here that has been ebbing and flowing over the last few years.
Should this be a titled phenomenon/effect? I see at least 3 options here:
1) Named company employees do not read/post on HN (if true, is this HN content? divergent topic...)
2) Named company employees are coerced or otherwise compensated to not comment on these matters, even if they do not directly impact them
3) Named company employees do not care about this n% layoff and are withholding comment

This is great! I wonder how long until we see GPT-assisted decompilation.
Taking a peek at the source, it's so interesting to see the a piece of history. For example, this was released in Japan in 2000, then internationally months later. As I recall, there was awareness building around the idea that vibrating controllers (here, the N64 Rumble Pak accessory) cause RSI or carpal tunnel. Since the developers shortened the rumble length outside of Japan, it looks like they were aware as well: https://github.com/nanaian/papermario-dx/blob/main/src/rumbl...
I wonder what led to this decision being made at the exclusion of the JP release.
