This is HN, not reddit. If you want to do something constructive, add context to that. Hasbro has some ex-pinkerton executives that keep tasking their former colleagues to intimidate supposed leakers (even if it is arguably their fault for

I'm not sure COVID is a root cause rather than a convenient occasion. The free market is supposed to work through scale and optimization; scale is still a relevant force, but mostly serves market consolidation. Optimization is not some
