Anyone have an idea when Fb will start allowing developers to add Fb Login again? From what I understand, they are overhauling their app approval process and won't be allowing developers to get approval until they release a new version. Anyone have insight on how long this will be?https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/03/cracking-down-on-platform-abuse/

I've been dating my gf for 3.5 years now and she is insisting that I move in with her or we're over. I love her but like my own space. She is adamant that we are over if I don't move in with her (her place is bigger). What questions do I need to ask myself before making this decision?

Good point but depends on why you are creating something. If it's primarily to make money then pivoting might get you there sooner. If it's too birth and nurture something that makes the world better than data could obscure the progress you are making that doesn't show up in the metrics.

Should we open source Democravise?

We help them crowdsource better questions. Think of it as insurance that you won't miss a critical question when making a decision.

Using an agent is a good idea when you have no lay of the land. There are safe and less safe areas here, knowing the difference is what an agent does for you. Also, if you do not speak the language negotiating can be extremely difficult, a local agent can iron all those out. For me the fee was only around $125 USD, which is reasonable for the work they do upfront and the ongoing support they can give you on the backend.

Yes. As a single founder in the program I can claim up to 400 000 CLP, I currently pay 300 000. The difference is now available for me to use for any other purpose that is reimbursable.

I'm the writer of the post. You were in the Pilot of the program, they adjusted the rules of the program through their experience with you, our program is subsequently different. The same thing is currently happening from feedback within our cohort and they are adjusting it for the next cohort, it will be a different program for them than it is for us. I stand fully behind the $10K being the number needed to fully access your grant. This is a critical number that the new cohort should know so that they don't come in and end up in a difficult position.
