#132Sometimes this goes from R2 to Q1 (makes sense), but sometimes it goes to H1. Is there an alphabet that puts H right before R?

#134Earlier quoted context omitted.
"Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put out in K.P."

#139This is some great content marketing by Taloflow. Having not paid attention to this story I didn’t realize they chose R because it was one letter behind S in the alphabet. If Cloudflare was a smaller company they’d probably get sued pretty fast. That has happened for much sillier and vain reasons. But I doubt there’s much to gain via the courts in the current state of things. This seems to be standard price competiti…
As Intel found out when they were unable to stop AMD naming their Intel 486 compatible CPU Am486, there's a certain threshold of creativity a name has to reach for trademark protection.
