Why do you think they weren't working so good in the first place? I mean, why was a bad solution implemented in an open-source product?

I click the "Use Apple" button and it takes me back at the same page with "you need a valid email account". This is on the ro.wordpress.com. Maybe it matters.

The answer to bad management is the cloud. Well put.

I just tried to register a new account at Wordpress but it's not working. Any other sites that you know?

Eastern Europe under-reports these cases for sure.

Keep your head up! 99,99% of this planet doesn't have mental health insurance. I had no idea it even existed.

The problem with Google is that everything is attached to your name. I never write any review on Google knowing that anybody can judge me based on that review alone. Reviews are between me and the target of the review. My coworkers don't need to know what I've bought, where I've been and all my opinions about those things.

No company will buy products just because they are better. They buy the brand, the support, the advertising.

Until companies have 3 managers and 2 normal employees.

Most devices are that restrictive. It's not like you buy an oven and you get to install Linux on it.

And why should a company give you some insurance for a traffic jam? Can you find another example where companies are paying for "things happened"?

Last time I tried Twitter will disable your account if you don’t provide a phone.

Everyone is at fault except Facebook. Vietnam, illegal scraping, criminals.

They don’t seem that bad here in Eastern Europe. Many times Uber is a bit more expensive than classic taxis. But most important they provide a very good service compared to regulated taxis. To understand what we had here before think of the normal taxi companies as the mafia. All of this while the government and the police did nothing.

It’s embedded in newer Androids (by default I think). At least in my region it’s the channel to what’s worse in the news space.

That is more on the side of licensing.

I’m not convinced that ANY is that bad. They wrote some bad code, they have special goals and all of a sudden ANY is not good for you.

You will never stop being treated as a machine, especially in big corp.

As for the anxiety, stop trying so hard. Your goal is to find people that you actually like. You can’t really be friends with people that you despise or have nothing in common with.

Look for what people say or do in common areas as a kitchen or a chat and try to relate without pushing yourself.

Play the game on your own terms and keep in mind that it’s not really a competition. You’re trying to have fun.

Why would one pay a higher price on a driverless ride?
