When you're Google, yes, the company works 7 days a week. Individuals don't, obviously, but as an entity it's moving all the time with operations folks and the like. Market Publishing is a production system used by a very large number of people, so I would imagine that someone was indeed working on it over the weekend, whether we hear about it or not. I know the scale is completely different, but imagine if Search was having issues over the weekend. You think they'd wait until Monday to fix it? -- Chris Stewart http://chriswstewart.com On Mon, Apr 4, 2011 at 10:20 AM, Maps.Huge.Info (Maps API Guru) < [email protected]> wrote: > > I know this is of little comfort, but not everyone works 7 days a week... > > I've been a software engineer for nearly 30 years and one rule I've > always followed since the dawn of the internet is to never roll out a > change on Friday.
