  People are struggling with the cost of living. At the same time the whole country is celebrating PayPal finally arriving in Sri Lanka. Freelancers and Small and Medium sized Enterprises are excited and honestly this is a genuinely positive step for Sri Lanka’s digital economy. But while everyone is celebrating… What happened to the millions lost in the recent cyber hack? Reports say Around USD 2.5 million meant for a debt payment was redirected through a cyber attack. Another USD 625,000 payment also went missing just days later. Total public money lost more than USD 3 million. Several officials were suspended. Investigations have begun but the public still does not know whether the money has been recovered. And then there is the Norochcholai “Coalgate” issue Auditor General reports highlighted low quality coal tender irregularities and major procedural failures. Billions in public losses were flagged. Senior officials resigned only after intense public pressure. People voted for change and stronger accountability. It is therefore fair to ask these questions when similar issues continue to occur even under a new government. PayPal’s arrival in Sri Lanka is good news. The country desperately needs digital growth, foreign income and better payment systems. But progress should never mean ignoring corruption, cyber security failures or missing public money. Sri Lankans deserve both economic progress and full transparency and accountability.

  @vikrambuilds worst weekend **** issues i have seen were from delayed webhooks, retries, and almost no clear info while reaching partner teams... debugging **** logs in that state is painful. went through that in my PayPal days and other teams too. thats part of why i am building FetchSandbox MCP now... so devs can run API workflows closer to production from the IDE, instead of only testing one request with Postman/curl.

  PayPal gotta fix their system. No way can people just do this with no consequences. You people disgust me so much.

  @StarlightAkari_ @zachbussey Paypal has been known to lock accounts and lock balances. Venmo hasn't done that to my knowledge and I can pull it out right away. I avoid paypal at all costs because of all of their issues.

  Anthropic just went after 30 million small businesses. Claude for Small Business dropped this week. 15 pre-built workflows. Connectors to QuickBooks, PayPal, HubSpot, Docusign, Google Workspace. Invoice chasing, payroll planning, lead triage, contract review, cash-flow monitoring. All baked in. No extra charge beyond the Claude license. Here's what most people will miss about this: The biggest AI lab on the planet just told small business owners they're worth building for. Not enterprise. Not Fortune 500. The 10-person company that's been duct-taping tools together for years. That's a market signal. When Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google all start shipping SMB-first products in the same quarter, it means the enterprise-only era of AI is over. But pre-built workflows are the floor, not the ceiling. They solve the generic problems every business has. The real unlock is when a business deploys an agent trained on their specific operations, their specific data, their specific customer patterns. That's where the ROI compounds. Generic workflows get you started. Custom agents get you ahead. 10-city live tour starting yesterday. Free half-day workshops for small business owners. Anthropic is doing field sales now. Let that sink in. What's the first workflow you'd hand off to an agent tomorrow morning?

  Thank you @PayPal for deactivating my account for zero reason. No warnings nothing just an email saying you deactivated it. I've had that account for years with no issue. I refunded the person, but my account got deactivated -_-

  @unusual_whales People forget that Elon Musk was involved with Paypal, which acts like a bank, and everything Elon Musk is doing right now appears to be the exact same business model the banks are doing. If you don't like it, that is your problem, stop using money. If you can't do that, lol

  Generally speaking it's a good habit to always withdraw funds from online money platforms when they come in (I.e. Paypal, patreon, throne, streaming services, etc.) as you never know when an account may be frozen or taken down for any reason.

  All the membership fees are stuck in there and paypal can’t even provide proper customer service. Don’t worry about this part it’s my problem to deal with. Just letting yall know for transparency.
