I think the point behind the Apple Card is to drive NFC payments adoption in the US. Australia has a near complete penetration of NFC while the US does not.

Only time will tell whether we get the Apple Card, but due to the Australian Reserve Bank’s interchange fee cap, we’ll likely not see the same cash back offer if it ever does land here.

It will be interesting to see other markets’ reception of Apple Card and Apple Pay too.

To confirm, you meaning Stripe?

Does this work in all banking jurisdictions?

He means Stripe (he introduced himself earlier in the thread), don't know the answer to the second q

It's also due to the fact (which I also tweeted) that Kubernetes is not even supported on the stable release channel of Docker for Mac!

That would be super cool, and I've noticed the branch protection features changing on GitHub, so perhaps they're thinking about this space too.

Yes but this is related to the legal basis for the claim, just because there are people who may have committed fraud, doesn’t give the government carte blanche to request any more than they’re legally entitled to obtain.

Will this be fixed when a "canonical" docker container comes out for it? Or perhaps two containers - 1 for dev & dev dependencies and 1 for "prod"?

This is potentially huge news - given that Apple just fought (and won) an antitrust/anti competition lawsuit in Australia in respect of not allowing Australian banks to use this NFC API!

Edit: pulled the trigger on this comment too soon - it appears that the API will only support "reader mode" which is not what the main subject of the litigation was about - the banks wanted a 'total' (for want of a better word) public access API.

Absolutely - and the argument that "Facebook usage is like common law licenses of invitation onto private property" tacitly assumes that Facebook is like private property, and that the moral justification of "my private property, my rules" is correct.

It's intuitive - I'll give you that - but we need to decide amongst ourselves whether this behaviour is something we want to encourage or discourage into the future.

> Many banks in the US let customers use personal financial management software to automatically download their bank statements in OFX format, but most Canadian,[2][3][4] United Kingdom and Australian (CBA exports OFX and QIF files) banks do not allow this.

I'm not criticizing - we need to do better! Developers demand JSON!!! :)
