Tell HN: Meta developer account suspended

Hi all, my Meta developer account was suddenly restricted without warning, and there’s no way to appeal or reach support. I believe this may have been triggered by a location (read, IP address) change: I’m a student-entrepreneur who recently moved from China to Kenya for school holidays. I’m building a WhatsApp-based accounting tool for African small businesses, and this restriction is blocking critical operations. I’ve come across others facing the same issue, with no review option or clear re

I ported pigz from Unix to Windows

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-01 20:47:53

I just finished porting pigz from Unix to Windows (you can download pre-compiled binaries ). This article describes how I did it. Pigz was clearly written with Unix in mind, with no thought given to cross-platform portability. Thankfully, it’s a relatively simple, command-line program that sticks to using standard C library. Porting pthreads Pigz uses pthreads for threading. Porting pthreads code to Windows would be a nightmare. Lucky me: someone already did all the hard work and implemented

14 Best Office Chairs of 2025— I've Tested Nearly 60 to Pick Them

Replace Your Casters The wheels on the bottom of your chair are among the easiest parts to replace. If your current casters don't roll smoothly or are too loud, it might be worth replacing them instead of buying a whole new chair. I like these from Stealtho, a Ukrainian company. They'll work with nearly every office chair, though the company notes they don't work with Ikea chairs.
