Shopify says remove Stripe billing or get booted from their app store 532 by ponny | 163 comments on Hacker News. We're a SaaS business currently listed on the Shopify App store. Today we got this stern email from Shopify's 'Partner Governance' team. TLDR: Don't even have Stripe as an option for Shopify users or we'll boot you. Also backpay since Jan 2019. "At Shopify, it is critical to maintain high trust and integrity within the Shopify App Store, so merchants have a reliable place to find solutions to grow their business. During a routine investigation, Partner Governance identified your app [our app] as offering external billing for Shopify merchants and not using the Billing API for all payments. [a couple of images of our cart] As you are aware, all paid apps are required to use our Billing API, as noted in our Partner Program Agreement (Section 3.2 Payments, Point 5) unless express permission is granted by Shopify. Payment information should not b...

My experience as a Gazan girl getting into Silicon Valley companies 655 by daliaawad | 137 comments on Hacker News. Hiii everyone, this is my first time posting here! I have read Hacker News sometimes but only thought about sharing my own post after seeing Manara's post (https://ift.tt/3uqZxu5 month. I asked them if I can share this here and they said it was a good idea. :) I’m a 19-year-old Gazan female who participated in Manara last year and got internships at Google and Repl.it. I’m so excited I will spend this summer at Google in Europe! I got lots of questions about my experience when people heard about it on Facebook so I wrote this blog post (https://ift.tt/3pONGm7) to let other young engineers in Palestine and the Middle East know how they can get into amazing companies like this too. If you are an engineer or student like me, read it and apply to Manara, they will help you so much!! Btw I have a few friends who just finished the Manara program and are looking for inter...

Ask HN: Advice for finding an entry-level remote job? 549 by AskHNremote2021 | 146 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN, I realize this isn't super on topic but I also feel like this is the best place I know of to ask for this advice, so here goes. I need some entry-level, remote-based work. What should I do? Help desk work seems the most promising / practical, but I haven't been able to find anything yet. The remote jobs I see posted are nearly all for higher-end positions. I live in the poorest region of the United States, but I do the best with what I have. I’ve worked on my family’s farm and done a couple stints at retail beauty supply shops that friends own. I helped open two of those shops. That’s the extent of my non-existent resume. Given a chance to interview, I believe I would do ok. Maybe even exceed expectations for the sort of job I'm looking for. I need to work remotely for family reasons. I have a special-needs sister and I look after my youngest brother. They a...
