About this:
“Kara: I am going to start a NEW thread to make it easy for people to follow (@waltmossberg just texted me that it is a "chaotic hellpit"). Stay in that one. OK?”
Being able to have a public chat that others could follow was a solved problem back in 1994. How the hell is this dystopian nightmare of a conversation happening in the year 2019?
