   Meh, I am an utterly replaceable software writer at a SF company, and feel like the OP wrote down what I was feeling. It's fairly easy to find out where I work, and I think you'd agree that I'm not curing cancer or anything.

   I lived there for a couple of years for grad school, and flew out about once a week in my final semester for interviews. The airport is a super well-oiled machine, it doesn;t really feel different from say, San Francisco. IMO it feels way m

    If you're making those decisions because you're bitter over Google Reader, I think Google's not the one that's hurting.....

    There used to be a popular video going around about how one company owns 80% of the market, but that number is somewhat inflated. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/does-luxottica-own-80-of-t...

    It's really not. I used to do it, and then quit it. Nobody even tried to armtwist me into not leaving (except for asking for 30-day notice)

    Thanks for making this point. After the Amazon/Apple hack fiasco, Bloomberg is a bottom-tier news site for me. They have clearly demonstrated (IMO) their lack of integrity or competence (or both).

    I wish you had phrased your answer better, but this is exactly what I thought of the OP's comment (and the vast majority of former power users' complaints, as someone that used to hang out there since the early days).

    I got a new phone less than a month ago, and this was a reason I got an android one phone. I can just use my phone (and unrelated, Uber) when I go to India (or anywhere else so far).

    Once you hit 6gb, you stop paying till you hit 15gb. After that, you're rate limited, or you can call up Fi support and have them put you at full speed and charge the usual $10/gb
