Half a billion/year from Google is hardly underfunded. Maybe if they used this money better they wouldn't have to kick 250 engineers last year.

Gmail was behaving exactly like that for me for a couple of months. There was a huge HN thread of people with the same issue and that might have made someone at Google to fix finally the issue.

My guess is that they don't have to pay rights for the podcasts, so for them it's a win/win if you spend your attention on their app listening to free content.

Once a database has been tunned, why would people keep paying for the service?

>management doesn't work for free. Looks like they are very well paid. So much that they had to let go 250 engineers last year.

Do you have any friends that might have used any FB app? If so, chances are high they uploaded their contact list and FB has your name and phone number.

I had no issues, maybe they're better now? People said the same about DO and I haven't had any issues with them as well.

The [3] resource is fantastic! Have you tried sponsoring rclone? I was studying their docs last week, and I'm sure people reading the docs are interested in this use case of moving between clouds without using their own bandwidth.

Scaleway also provides a similar service. Had an issue recently (deleted a bucket, and couldn't create another bucket with the same name) and their support replied back in minutes .

I'm curious: can you can undo the obfuscation of JScrambler and Obfuscator.io easily? Some time ago I tried to run both through Closure Compiler, but it was way harder than I thought would be.

They should spend their money paying more engineers then, instead of laying off 250 people last year and upping bonuses for the C-level staff.

I wonder how Chrome, WhatsApp, Google Photos, Instagram, etc, can make their apps run anywhere using only public APIs and Apple can't.

Congrats on shipping and thanks for sharing with us! I'm going to try it, as recently the good old "impossibility dot org" (don't try that, it's NSFW now) went offline.

The search sucks. The new interface sucks even harder. The mobile interface doesn't even work anymore, you have to use an App.
