GitHub Sponsors is telling me to confirm my identity, or more specifically my address. Only one problem: they assume that there is only a single city/town name for a ZIP code…
No one working on this at GitHub has ever lived in a rural area? My town hasn't had a post office in decades; we use the neighboring town's post office and ZIP code, but that doesn't mean my town doesn't exist!
@to I unironically included a link to the USPS where they can look up my ZIP code and see the three towns it includes. Admittedly I am surprised it's only three; I thought it crossed more town boundaries (albeit slightly).
As I'm sure you know, it normally doesn't matter, but when dealing with financials it's important to be correct!
@jhpratt @to Didn't know whether it exists - searched for it ("Falsehoods programmers believe about addresses") - and of course it exists.
