[google-appengine] Re: "One senses GAE is just not a major priority for Google"
lol I just have to say lol, at both the idea that code from within the last 5 years is somehow legacy, and also that the developers console logs viewer is somehow not awesome. You know you can stream your logs to bigquery, you can put them in cloud storage, you can do all kinds of things, computer-y, programmer-y things to look at your logs, right?
