A recent tragedy is the shuttering of the airplanes.live API. They've recently been bombarded with crazy amounts of traffic from people vibe coding apps, and violating the TOS and using it commercially. On top of that, after shutterin

FYI - airplanes.live is run by community hobbyists, who are paying out of pocket to keep the service running - so it's not free (it costs a lot of money to run), and commercial use does break their TOS. If you do use it in any capacity

That's amazingly terrible, I get the business case but this is the sort of thing you don't roll out in an automatic update....and you talk to your customers and stakeholders about first. Just wow.

Classic Google behavior, and of course there's no human on the other side to talk to... This problem seems to pop up time and time again.

Not always, no. I'm leaving a role where the people are wonderful and doing their best, and the role is satisfying from a professional aspect. But I am leaving for other reasons - and they aren't people or salary related.

If you look at the source cited in the article, it's not a ban on 4 engine planes as a whole, it's a ban explicitly at Ben Gurion airport due to noise concerns, as it's surrounded by urban areas. The residents of those areas

Yikes. I'm Jewish, non-religious. This guy is absolutely crazy. Do I personally like Christmas? No. Do I like having it shoved down my throat every time I go to get groceries? No. Do I like it when some people seem to get offended when

It certainly has been an interesting discussion :) and I in no way claim to be an expert, just a person who has been and is seriously considering this. From what research I've done and from the people I talked to, it seemed pretty rigo

Well, I'm glad to hear that at least your personal situation is good. and I am glad that this has led to a good discussion. It's pretty heartbreaking to hear that a lot of people are unhappy about their similar situations. To addr

I see this has sparked a decent amount of discussion, and that's always good. However, you've made an assumption that is, at least partially, incorrect. I would not mind meeting potential offspring, for a short contact later in li

On the flip side of the coin, I was recently considering donating sperm anonymously and now I won't, unless there's some kind of legal protection against this. I (and my wife) do not want to have our own children, but would be hap

Absolutely not. If you can, run it on your own machines, or GCE/AWS, where you can commission a large server or build a scale-able infrastructure (wp frontends, EFS, aurora on AWS or wp frontends, gluster, cloud sql on GCE). For $4k, y

Yep, our GCE startup credits. We've only burned through about half of em (from the billing page, it looks like ~45k), and they expire in late march. So if we had an extra year to use 'em, that would be amazing. When I last chatted

That's fair and you won't get any arguments from me there. It's very easy to run singleton Linux machines on Azure and I have no complaints there. I wasn't going to lay it out here, but, as I have your ear: I'm not
