what do you mean by zero-rating?

maybe it's time for ios developers to (temporary) remove their apps from the App Store as a protest?

Taking 30% without providing alternatives to install apps seems totally unfair

not fair. it's not a normal service. it's a transportation service. If I can't travel on date X, traveling on date Y may be useless.

One could argue it would be useful for another trip to a different location. Sure. But because airflights prices are so shady (prices changing every day, prices that are different if you have a VPN connected, etc etc), the voucher could make you choose for the worst price.

That doesn't seem fair to me tbh

Good to know that Google+ is healthy

really mixed feelings with phabricator. it's cool to have the concept of review instead of sending each comment immediately, but the UI still sucks. It's hard to understand which repo the pull request/review we are looking at belongs to for instance.

and it gets all f*cked up if you started a comment and didn't close the input. among many other UI stuff (not sure if the UI has improved or if any of it is configurable btw)

> Yet, you’ll rarely find software engineers complaining about long hours or being woken up because of a production issue. The software is our baby, and we like to care for it as such. That means if it needs feeding in the middle of the night, we do it. If it needs extra care over the weekend, we do that too, all with a smile because our creation is growing.

We need to stop this! We are promoting unhealthy extra hours. We are making it like it's ok to expect/ask developers to work overnight and weekends. Work-life balance is not just a cliché, we need to incentivise developers to have a real life outside of work

> I was once about to leave my place with a date when the office called because of a production issue. She sat and waited patiently for an hour while I tried frantically to fix the issue before she ultimately took off (I couldn’t blame her), leaving me to my work and my coworkers in IRC sharing my misery.

is this company really so dependent of a single developer? unless it's a startup with 3 employees it sounds like a problem. Or maybe the developer thinks it's the only one able to save the day?

I'm a bit skeptical on this 100% SLA claim they do... all 4 of FANG have downtime, but DNSimple doesn't?

I miss a good tutorial on vim plugins :) still not trivial to explain to new comers how to use plugins they find on github for instance

looks similar to seedrs http://seedrs.com (which was used by revolut to get investment AFAIK)

can this been seen as a initiative to make google robots.txt parser the internet standard? every webmaster will want to be compliant with google corner cases...
