As with Amazon's way of replicating successful businesses on their platform, what makes Thrasio's strategy to be undone?

The article quotes demand media and zynga who bore the brunt of platform risk.

Tmux and Vim for me - they are tools and not exactly commands.
TikTok for sure is in the eye of the storm. US army has forbidden personnel from using it. Apple has caught the app using clipboard capture mechanisms to spy users.

To get more details, around 2 months ago, Reddit user ‘Bangorlol’ commented on a discussion about TikTok claiming to have successfully reverse-engineered it. He advised users against using the app and telling their friends and family to stop using it as well due to its intrusive user tracking among other serious problems.

The Courage to Be Disliked by Ichiro Kishimi

My favorite quotes:

PHILOSOPHER: To quote Adler again: ‘The important thing is not what one is born with, but what use one makes of that equipment.

The courage to be happy also includes the courage to be disliked. When you have gained that courage, your interpersonal relationships will all at once change into things of lightness.

once one is released from the schema of competition, the need to triumph over someone disappears.
