I will never buy a notebook with touch bar and regretting getting this one. As a vim user I would vote for Esc any day. Same issue on the iPad keyboard cover.
It’s also annoying that the iPad keyboard cover actually has more (and IMO better) key travel than the new Macbooks. Other than the lack of escape and function keys, I wouldn’t mind too much typing on it for development.
Cool! Do you use Telegram as a backend for jaconda.im as well? If so, then it's also cool to see somebody giving Slack some competition with a more open backend server.
Jaconda for Telegram works in a different way compared to XMPP Jaconda.im, it is possible to stitch them together but it's a bit too early at the moment.
People that moved to Hangouts aren't available on GTalk (the xmpp part). I run my own XMPP server, people that have ancient Android 2.x mobiles and don't buy into the G+ nonsense can talk to me. People with more modern systems/that 'upgraded' to Hangout cannot.
Since my server cannot magically filter these people I came to the conclusion that Google _doesn't_ support xmpp, federation or not, for most of their users anymore.
(If you manage to access GTalk again, for example by running the GTalk thingy in GMail/the browser, you can talk to me again. I've got a hard time making my friends do that to contact me)
For all intents and purposes Google's XMPP support is broken.

True, but this is "only" a client problem. What is first and foremost important is the support server-side.
This ugly situation is just like if everyone suddenly decided en-masse to stop using their XMPP client of choice.
This is partly "waking up to reality" for the XMPP community, partly a huge tragedy for the lack of diversity in how people (used to) communicate over XMPP
...but none of these thing would impede Jaconda's users to receive notifications on their desktop or their mobile.
(If anything, I'd consider developers (Jaconda's users) more likely to have an actual XMPP client, rather than strictly relying only on what Google provides by default)
They just (~now~) sent out messages to GTalk users, telling them that Gtalk-the-desktop-app support will be terminated on the 16th of February, like .. in a couple of days from now.
For me Google's xmpp support is nonexistent, I understand Jaconda's attitude.
We are using it ourselves as both XMPP and Telegram messenger. But the truth is, we are not planning to develop a stand-alone messenger. XMPP messengers are slowly sinking and Telegram looks like a nicer alternative. Especially considering Telegram's team showing interest in our project.
>"XMPP messengers are slowly sinking"
I'm sure telegram is a good choice for your company, but "XMPP messengers are slowly sinking", I think, is a silly statement.
This is my personal opinion I've gathered from experience. I still have some friends using XMPP from Gtalk times. I have 0 new XMPP contacts for years since the fall of Gtalk. One might argue that it is still going strong, but I don't see anything proving that point. And the most authoritative indicator for ourselves is the amount of companies signed up for Jaconda. Guess having to add DNS records so XMPP is working on your domain is not helping either.
Okay, maybe 90%, all my friends who had iPhone 4, and most of the people I see around with iPhone 4 have the problem. How can I tell? They have accessibility thing on the screen.
