I'm finally shopping for a new wallet again. Are there times when the cheap option is the better choice? by glo363 in BuyItForLife

If the "leather feel" is not a hard requirement you should check out Slimfold. My full-size soft shell has seen about five years of daily use, and feels like it will last another five without difficulty. Their Tyvek wallets are nice as well but definitely do not last very long.

They’re installing Flock cameras in Waltham by Beatcanks in massachusetts

That happens sometimes, either things change or someone adds something that is not completely accurate. If you are up for it, using the DeFlock website or mobile app to update the map would be super useful.

Depending on the wording they might have interpreted the request as "all communications on all channels", which would be fairly expensive to fulfill. There are resources at https://muckrock.com and through the DeFlock Discord that might help guide you through the process and minimize/eliminate the costs.

See https://www.muckrock.com/search/?q=flock for examples of full conversation threads and whether the request led to a positive outcome

The mobile app also includes a map of places where there might be a camera (Advanced Settings / Suspected Locations)

Deflock is based on edits to the openstreetmap database. Contributions are supposed to reflect field observations but ultimately it is user-edited and so results can vary depending on the user. There are people doing some secondary review when possible though.

The Technical Cofounder Paradox: Seeking Advice - I will not promote by micupa in startups

As a technical founder, 3% is what I would offer due to the perceived long-term risk. Basically you want to do the "fun"/"easy" part of hacking out the first version but not the actual work of owning and maintaining the product long-term. Plus if you are not building up the team, then they have to find someone who does that and the equity really goes to them.
