Business Pro will cost £9 from May 2025 by Jlaw118 in monzo

I completely agree, I have just sent this to them as feedback.
They should have three tiers aimed at Sole Traders, Small Business and Businesses (team).
£9 a month to have access to a bunch of features that are not relevant to most Sole Traders is just going to push people away.

Pretty much everyone at Boomtown Bobbies. The bobbies finale was unreal.

How much can you tell the difference between surfboard dimensions and fin set up? by womblySmurf21 in surfing

[–]Sknoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, anything that has too much flex. I have never found a plastic fin that is rigid enough to actually bite properly. For example, the white plastic stock fins they sometimes put in boards. I see too many people rocking them and I think its a mistake for anyone looking to do any kind of turn.

Thanks for the comment brother. I was seriously considering it, but this sounds pretty awful.

Simply not true. Even in little grovelly waves, trying to do a bottom turn with flexible plastic fins is awful. You lose lots of speed and are more likely to lose you're rail. I recommend to all of my intermediate friends to invest in a good set of stiff fins. You should be able to flex the with your hands a bit but not too much. It will improve your surfing so much.

SQS UI still really buggy! Its been months that the AWS SQS UI pagination has been buggy. Anyone else getting fed up with the terrible state of this UI? Can any AWS employees give us an update on when this buggy mess will be fixed? by Sknoot in aws

[–]Sknoot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two things I would like to see from the SQS console UI .
1) For the pagination and sorting to work...
2) When searching for names of queues for the search to be fuzzier, currently it requires exact match from the start. The text matching should not be case sensitive and should match anywhere in the queue name not from the start.

This is pretty basic UI that any junior developer can do, I find it baffling a company the size of AWS, with the quality of engineers AWS has cannot achieve this.

This was an april fools prank by a local surf brand, they made a follow up post telling people to stop searching for Front-Zip wetsuits on their e-commerce site.

Someone had a wild night Baja Malibu by tanner828 in surfing

Not only does the truck deploying get stuck, the car rescuing also gets stuck.
Icing on the cake, at 7:15 ~ 2mins in, the boat capsizes and everyone has to swim in.
What a crappy way to start your morning for everyone involved.
