[Thorben @walski]

@dnsimple Thanks, just reached out. Would love if we can apply some sort of quick fix to route traffic to https://t.co/WaIMl0i8Rp in the meantime. Resolution on their end seems to be working (see email)

@CoronaKita Aber die destatis-Quellen sind nicht die betreuten Kinder in der Stichprobe Ihrer Studie, oder? Und im Dashboard wird nur die Zahl der Einrichtungen mit "1 oder mehr" Fällen angezeigt, nicht die Gesamtzahl der Fälle, oder? Vllt bin ich auch nur etwas blind :)

[Thorben @walski]

@CoronaKita erheben Sie wöchentliche Zahlen zu der Anzahl betreuter Kinder in den Einrichtungen? Wie viele Kinder werden durchschnittlich von einer Einrichtung betreut? Gibt es im Dashboard einen Weg die Anzahl der Gesamtinfektionen pro Woche einzusehen? Danke!

@dnsimple @DNSimpleStatus you folks down? Can't resolve any of our domains anymore 😭 Status page has no info, yet.

@obie thanks for https://t.co/3uHOTePMsA, just saw that the "sidecar assets" link is pointing to nowhere (restructured README?). This looks like the place where the content lives now: https://t.co/IRZVdErfeB

Does anyone remember that blog post on the depth of smallish software businesses and the value they create / cumulative valuation they reach / people they feed. Can't find it again but I'm sure it made it's rounds on HN a few weeks ago. Any pointers very welcome. Thank you!

Hello friends. I'd love a friendly intro to someone at Shopify Engineering, to ask for a favor while we're in Montreal for an AngelList offsite. Can anyone help? #christmaskarma #thankyou

@gearoidorourke @dnsimple so stop looking ;)

Recommendations for alternatives to Github's PR review interface?

- Hard to get context on diffs (e.g. collapsing surrounding code often buries context)
- Cannot make small fixes from the review UI
- UX pretty technical / not supporting me much understanding the PR as a whole

We bought a whiteboard. It's very not-good. We need a better one. Vendor suggestions?

Our requirements are moderate:

1. white board
2. markings should be removable after a day
3. 🎉

TIL: If you end your line with a semicolon in IRB, it'll suppresses the output of the value of the last expression… I WAS DOING IT WRONG ALL THE YEARS!! (using ``…;nil`) Mind blown.
