It’s at the end, they disabled the DDB DNS automations around this to fix before they re-enable them


If it's re enabled (without change?), wouldn't an unusually high delay break it again?


Why would they enable it without fixing the issue?

The post-mortem is specific that they won't turn it back on without resolving this but I feel like the default assumption for any halfway competent entity would be that they fix the known issue that they have disabled something because.


Yes we have cell reimbursement


"but it does a lot of the same things and often lies about it"

Can you provide evidence of this? Not that I don't believe you (nor do I have any financial interest in Apple), but I'm not a fan of seeing baseless accusations on HN.


Sorry, I thought that it was well known... did a quick search and found this: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/oct/18/imessage-...

duck.com for more examples...


That isn’t an example at all. It’s a random assertion from a 3rd party with no validation.


so what is an example, according to you?


The onus is on you, the person who made the claim, to find examples that have enough evidence to be taken as factual.

I don’t trust any big company and assume they’re all lying, but I trust random online assertions without evidence even less.


An example would be them actually being shown to be lying about something factual.

Not just someone offering an opposing opinion.

still 2 years after Steve Jobs died which I think had a better moral compass


Site looks really good. Showed it to my team, I think we'll be experimenting with it this week. I've only tested practice mode so far, but is there a way to increase the blinds after X minutes? Like a Sit-N-Go / tournament mode?


Thanks! It doesn't have tournament mode yet. But looks like this is the most requested feature so far. I'll consider adding it soon.


Interesting, me too (4 months) - the charge will cut in and out randomly, although looking at the cable it seems to be in perfect condition still. Makes playing music through my car's USB port a challenge, as it's rare to be able to play more than two songs in a row without a disruption. Disappointing.


Is it not widely known that sharing your salary with co-workers is protected by U.S. law? I get the impression that workers in general feel the idea is taboo or will get you in trouble...


it doesn't help morale when you find out a junior dev is making more than a senior dev.


If I need to get a message to a machine or troll someone, I do a psexec -s cmd to their box, then do: msg * "insert message here"


Impressive - rated me only 5k (USD) higher than I make now, and nailed down the other types of jobs I'm interested in.


Yes, but in a world of about 7.2 billion people, there are only 55 basketball players capable of making 10 million+ a year [1] (I'm assuming there is no foreign league paying a player more than 10M USD per year, someone feel free to check me on this). If you were one of the top 55 "best" programmers or writers in the world, I have a feeling you could figure out how to make 10M/year.

I did a test one year where for a full 365 days, I completely removed all sodas from my diet and changed nothing else, kept my regular doses of exercise the same. Only drank water or tea/lemonade at meals. Easiest 15 pounds I ever lost
