Did you manage to resolved the "shadow-banned link" issue? If so, how did you resolve it?

[r721 → sydneyitguy]

I didn't encounter this issue myself, just know how it looks like. I think it should be possible to resolve through Twitter support, or maybe (just an assumption) entire .club is banned.

I would google "twitter support shadow-banned domain" for clues in your place, should be a common issue.

Oh you mean my account? lol yeah I'm new to Twitter (only few weeks now), and just using it to like / retweet others' postings about our product. However, does it against Twitter's policy?

It's kind of similar joke as Yo, but what it does is quite different.

Yo: Between your friends / Bark: Random neighborhood Yo: Anywhere in the world / Bark: Only within 1 mile

On: Ask HN: PHP, Django, or Rails? Oh my

[sydneyitguy]

I've been using some good frameworks in PHP such as CodeIgniter, Fuel, Zend, etc, but nothing can compare to Ruby on Rails.

A major advantage of ruby world is most open-source libraries and gems are actually usable and well written and maintained, whereas most PHP open sources are not maintained well or have a poor code quality.

On: What is the best language to learn at this moment?

[sydneyitguy]

I guess PHP is easiest to start, Ruby and Python are more fun. Javascript is obvious if you consider web programming. I'm interested in Scala, GoLang nowadays, but I feel it's in too early stage still.

Anyway I would recommend just trying every language, so you can select the most suitable one depending on the project.
