Please get help. Bringing up this entirely off-topic flamebait here is analogous to bringing up Donald Trump in a thread about copyright issues surrounding Donald Duck. Aka “something better reserved for reddit”.

Afaik none of the ISPs in the US just have their own lists of blocked websites. Not even talking about “they dont have the lists available,” I am saying that they dont just block websites. With the only exception being when they are ordered

The app description in the store has two large paragraphs talking about the premium subscription plans (or rather, how to pay for them). And yet there is absolutely no information anywhere to be found about what’s included in those premium

No worries at all, and thanks for the app, i like it quite a bit. I wouldnt recommend adding that redirect explicitly, and instead just make all invalid url paths redirect to the home page. Mostly because I am certain that the issue with th

Yeah, I am with you on this one. And even with that worst case scenario dodged, checked luggage experience just sucks. After landing, instead of just up and leaving the airport, you gotta go to your baggage claim and wait for your flight to

Just a nitpick - the website for the app flashes the UI for a split second and then goes to white screen (except the banner at the top to install the app from the app store) on iOS Safari.

Agreed with your take, which is why i specified eng-only daily standups. If we need non-eng people in a meeting on our team, it would not happen in a daily meeting (barring very rare one-offs). If there are as many non-eng people in a stand

“Influencing” is not the same as “manipulating” or “controlling” in this context. Some kid in eastern europe watched Kobe Bryant play and got inspired to sign up for a local basketball team and took it seriously - that’s influencing. People
