    He did do the "can't sell GPUs to Poland*" move when he was on his way out though. Separating countries into "tier 1" and "tier 2" was a pretty bad look, especially when a bunch of…

    I don't get it. How does every device combo having a unique key pair help with security? They can all log in, right? So all you need is to compromise their session and you're in, w…

    Do we have any actual evidence that this significantly improves things? For example, can we expect Czech PISA scores to go up by 50 points from this change? Or is this one of those…

    Does it work fine though? Because I haven't even heard of Google Keep, let alone have it installed. If I need to take some notes I can't even imagine going to search through a stor…
