That’s about 1.8k each. Pocket change.

This is, hands down, the funniest version of this that I have seen.

I even heard it in his voice goddamnit.

This is art.

Discord co-founder and CTO Stanislav Vishnevskiy wants you to know he thinks a lot about enshittification.

You don’t say.

With reports of an upcoming IPO and the news of his co-founder to hand leadership of the company over to a former Activision Blizzard executive, many Discord users are rightfully worried the platform is about to become, well, shit.

I’m sorry, about to…? As if the developments of the last 2 years weren’t a downward spiral with the game integrations, ads and garbage UI redesigns one after the next? Alright then.

Chronic? Yes. Pain? No, some other strain

Again with the “losing money” narrative. It doesn’t lose money, it costs money.

Now. Does it cost so much more than ever before? I don’t know. And if it does, why is that? Good questions.

But if it doesn’t cost proportionally so much more but we all stopped buying stamps or using the paid services it provides to subsidize its operational costs then that would explain the deficit. Otherwise we’d need to ask more pointed questions, I’m with you on that

But you can’t slap “basic reforms” on something when you don’t see or understand the larger underlying picture past the sensationalist headline and that’s unfortunately the point where most people stop asking questions

Canada post is a service. Its job is to provide a service to every person in the country, not to generate profit for shareholders. When it’s doing well, it can self sustain, which is cool, otherwise it costs money through tax dollars as would any services we pay for.

It’s also supposed to be consumed within 15-30 minutes of being prepared if memory serves.

That is a proper workaround when you don’t have a choice, disposable temp sim will get you through their “security”. Unfortunately doesn’t work with virtual sim numbers though.

MVP - as in “minimum viable product”

More commonly known as the slop of a product or solution that’s being slinged to all the markets early on without adequate documentation, support, usability, scalability, standards or security.

“Corner the market” also deserves a disgusting mention.

That hole is already busy during regular business hours
