i'm not sure why it's Uber's fault. in the uk, Uber drivers are all registered taxi drivers, because of regulations. it's not Uber's fault that the indian market is not as strictly regulated, and that one of their drivers did this.

Not that i'm saying it's ok, it's not. but uber seems to be catching a lot of flak for things they haven't done. sure they probably could have done more to prevent it, but so could the government.

companies always tend to the minimum required by law, it's cheaper that way

and the amount of rape happening in india is crazy, the government needs to do something about that, something more than blaming uber. what's the point in the state if it can't even protect it's people?

at $work we're using redmine, it's not great, but it works and does 99% of everything we need.

for personal projects, i use trac, because it's easy to setup and works, although again it's not great. especially so if there's a team of people using it instead of 1.

my personal favourite would be bugzilla, although it's a pita to set up, and doesn't have repo integration (or didn't last time i looked) which is a shame.

i've also used basecamp before, was not a fan.

the thing to remember is, all project management stuff sucks, so find something that does most of what you want and work around the bits it doesn't do

i'm not sure what this is, it's not that clear. it seems to be an advert for a guest house that's tailored to people building startups? here's a hint, if you're building a start up you want to be successful, moving somewhere to go surfing isn't probably the best thing to do

and it doesn't seem that cheap either tbh. not forgetting remoteness is a massive problem, i worked somewhere remote, it was awful. they had surfing. i moved back to the city after 6 months, i've never been happier.

that said, i hope it works for you, i wish i could live at the beach in a warm country

glad i have the 840 pro, although the sample size of 1 of each drive essentially makes these tests meaningless
