Hello,today I noticed that on the API documentation overview page it says that the Billing_v2 API is Deprecated. I can't find any further information on that and also noticed that, in contrast to the WorkVists_v1 API which is marked in the same way, no deprecation information can be found on the actual documentation page. Would you be able to provide some more information on the deprecation or links to where I can find it? I'm especially interested in whether this API is actually going to be disabled in the future and if there's any alternative to obtain invoice information programmatically and machine-readable.Thanks, Jonas

Guess what? We're freaking out (in the best way!) because the Traceroute Podcast just got nominated for a Webby Award in the Tech category! That's right, we're apparently one of the top 5 tech podcasts in the WORLD – which is pretty wild considering there were over 13,000 projects entered!  So, can you help us win this thing? It only takes 2 minutes to cast your vote here by Thursday, April 18th.

On the latest episode of Traceroute, we look at how climate change is forcing the island nation of Tuvalu to rethink what it means to be a state.For the island nation of Tuvalu, the effects of climate change are more than a warning; they’re an eviction notice. Estimates vary as to when the small chain of coral islands could vanish beneath the waves, but experts agree that Tuvalu may be uninhabitable long before then, prompting its people to set sail for a new frontier… The metaverse. Within this digital landscape, Tuvalu could potentially preserve its lands, heritage, and governance, effectively pioneering a new model for nationhood, in which a nation and its people exist in two realms—physical and virtual. But how does one go from sand to silicon while maintaining the essence of a culture? And what is the real-world environmental impact of storing a nation’s worth of data? Whether we take Tuvalu’s proposal literally or view it as a symbolic call to action, unpacking the logistics of s

We were promised flying cars. We were told that by the year 2000, cities would float in the clouds, robots would cut our hair, and there’d be a computer in everyone’s pocket. Well, one out of three ain’t bad.The question is, why? Why did we think the future would bring interstate moving sidewalks, but we ended up with the internet instead? In this episode of Traceroute, we take an in-depth look at why we get the technology we get…and our trail leads to three distinct factors. Helping us unravel the reason behind these factors is Mike Winterfield, Founder of Active Impact Investments, a VC firm that specializes in Green Tech. We also talk with Oliver Walker-Jones of Joby Aviation, one of several companies that are finally making flying cars, who shares his insight as to why it took almost a hundred years to get from the idea of the flying car to the reality of one.

Stick around as we explore how tech both creates and disrupts our groove, and whether the secret sauce of in-person jams can really translate to the digital world. In this episode of Traceroute, we delve into a quest for the perfect tool to help bridge the physical and digital divides that increasingly appear between musicians like John and Arman. From California’s Bay Area to the buzzing streets of Hong Kong, we find a host of technologists who, spurred on by the impacts of a global pandemic, are already hard at work tackling the kind of low-latency global networking solutions that just might be the key to keeping the band in one semi-remote piece. But within this particular stack, there lies an even bigger conundrum. Because even if we somehow manifest the right tool for the job, is the magic of this so-called “vibe” even replicable? Or is there another solution altogether?Part 2 - The Synchrony Paradox  In part one of our story, we sourced the perfect tool for jamming together from

No matter the layers in your stack there’s one inevitability about all of our systems: errors. Misunderstandings, miscalculations, and mishaps are so much a part of the human experience, they can’t help but get baked into the increasingly complex socio-technical systems that we create. Historically we’ve always aimed to reduce our bug counts or have fewer incidents, but what if we instead, thought of these errors as opportunities to better refine our understandings of how our systems interact with the world around them? Maybe, in fact, our mistakes are at least as important to technological development as our innovative ideas? In this fascinating episode of Traceroute, we start back in 1968, when “The Mother of All Demos” was supposed to change the face of personal computing…before the errors started. We’re then joined by Andrew Clay Shafer, a DevOps pioneer who has seen the evolution of “errors” to “incidents” through practices like Scrum, Agile, and Chaos Engineering. We also speak w

I returned from a trip to Ghana, West Africa, with a new perspective on how technology helps us not only make new discoveries but gives old discoveries a new perspective. In this special episode featuring all three co-hosts in a fascinating discussion, you'll hear about examples like Adinkra, the symbol-based language of the Ashanti Empire. A form of communication based on various observations of and associations between humans and the objects they use, the associative nature of the language is one of the bases for block code that software engineers use today.
