    How about listening to a message in portrait, accidentally moving your phone to landscape, and then having the playback stop and lose position in the audio stream. Or how about los…

    I live in Florida. Recently a major insurance company, Gulfstream Property and Casualty Insurance Co., has gone insolvent and liquidated. I'm pretty sure the reason is all the free…

    Maybe they were confusing it with DCOM (distributed COM) which was often talked about around that time.

    Would have liked to see these numbers adjusted for cost of living. Making $145,000 in silicon valley is not anywhere comparable to making $145,000 in Podunk Florida, and thus I'm n…

    And many of us switched to Signal due to bad-faith money-grubbing behavior of a certain other company. There was an illusion of free, safe, "by the people for the people" and by im…

    Why am I seeing payment integration while I still lose my place in an audio playback when I switch from landscape to portrait? Or the fact that I still can't tell whether I've list…

    IIRC, that was the exact argument for disabling image loading when it was first introduced. The responsible thing for services like gmail and o365 to do would be to eat the resourc…

    Isn't it amazing how we're suddenly being educated on this special case in American history. Trump and his goons want to use this as precedent to pull, essentially a coup. Preceden…

    You're describing a mild trip. More can take you into other worlds where your brain can make you believe you're in tune with the universe, or black out and scare yourself because y…

    None of that sounds like microdosing to me.

    Thank you for putting this together. Independent data sources are vital, since we know this administration does everything they can to hide reality.

    And how about performance impact? The mitigation's that have been done in software recently came with an ugly performance cost (just not as ugly as the vulnerability). Is there any…

    I remember when Schwab went down just as Facebook went public. Couldn't cancel my order, ended up with the stock at a much higher price and the stock had dropped by a lot by the ti…

    Isn't this pretty much accounted for by doctors at this point? Isn't it well know that there's a good chance that an elderly patient will die during or soon after significant surge…

    I stopped reading when the article turned toward a history of the guy Aronson. I said to myself "Oh hell no, I'm not wasting my time reading about this guy I don't care about", I l…

    That is a heroically long article of which all I don't really have time to read, unfortunately. But it seems to me that these companies have an ethical responsibility to ensure tha…

    With something this important, I'd expect something more substantial than the equivalent of "I stayed on this diet for a year and it worked! I shrunk by 1/3rd!"

    How about something a little bit more than "it worked" and "business tripled". An analysis of contributing factors, maybe. There's so much bullshit in the media with people claimin…

    I think it's great that this company did this, but this article is a puff piece. There's no real data here. He just states that the `business tripled`. What does that actually mean…

    Color me surprised... surely not another crypto heist. This is going to keep happening, over and over again. Put your money in this stuff at your own peril.

    I was wondering the same thing. Casual is missing, I didn't catch that Del was in the list, not surprised he's up there. Aceyalone was another one I wonder about.
