Interestingly enough, also some MS/Azure services are down. For example https://www.office.com/ just returns:

>We are sorry, something went wrong. >Please try refreshing the page in a few minutes. If the problem persists, please visit status.cloud.microsoft for updates regarding known issues.

The status page of course says nothing

Seems all of Shopify.com is down. Every store

Linkedin -> the same

For me Linkedin returns the 500 cloudflare error

The Norwegian MET does, https://api.met.no/

They also provide yr.no which is widely used worldwide.

I think yr.no is the default source for Home Assistant

The Norwegian MET has had it for years, for free. https://api.met.no/

They also provide yr.no which is widely used worldwide.

gnome use this in their weather app.

Strangely enough, still possible. My dad was in this sixties when he got his wisdom teeth.

In a ironic twist, it now returns this HN page.

What’s the point of your comment? This screams spam to me.

Somehow I made the connection between Bogbook and the bog article, not sure why!

Yeah, they are literally just spamming the same everywhere: https://twitter.com/otter_ai/status/1567568010680111104

Talk about dumpster fire

I'm not sure if you're joking or not so: He already gets attacked from the bad guys.

And this would be a new way to attack him

He's triggering it manually. And I'm pretty sure he knows what backscattering is.

I had forgotten. Here's an explanation: https://help.returnpath.com/hc/en-us/articles/220568667-What....

I missed the manual part. If that is the case I wonder whose time is getting more wasted!

He covers this in the article. He manually moves an email to a different folder, maybe about 2 seconds worth of effort, which then triggers everything else and it is hands-off from there.

That sounds ...very low, right? Given that it will be very easy to get twice that(and more) in northern Europe.

Well yes, and no, in most cities in Spain* with 35k€ you would probably be in the top 5-10%. Average salary in many cities is 15-20k€, so with 35k€ you'd be relatively very well off. Of course compared to international dev salaries it's low, but that's not relevant for all.

As a funny data point, my first salary ever as a developer in Valencia, Spain was 12k €/year (6k € part time), and I was very happy with it since it was while I was in college so it was all for fun and savings. Some day I should share my salary evolution, it's just crazy.

*I'd say on average if you exclude Madrid/Barcelona

You can get more than 35k in east europe. South europe is not much tech developed and pay is indeed low. In northern europe you get more but pay more in tax so its not really much higher.

Yep - the decent companies tend to pay like €60-70k though.

It's really bimodal, like in OP's post. The big multinationals tend to pay decent wages and the others pay a pittance.

I make about 24K euros a year after tax in Finland as a (full stack-ish) PHP dev. It's my 3rd year at the company. Is that a bit low then?

You are better off in east europe to be honest.

Yes. Shop around. Hint: you could probably double that.

Note that the discussion is a year old. Around one year ago I wrote more about this "phenonomen" here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27993123

tl;dr: I managed to find the servers behind it, most likely anybody who are still affected can do the same thing I did pretty easily. We also followed the money, which is a tad more work.
