Walmart's interest are only aligned till they can cut a better deal with some other brand or they come up with their own product.

Playing the devil's advocate here. You can get this data easily from market research reports and sales data of the respective companies also.

Audit trail of data source access? Though then, you would need to differentiate between legitimate access and using it for your own products.

I personally think Amazon's dominance in ecommerce of physical good is fragile and it would be hard to argue monopolistic behaviour there. If Shopify grows like it is growing right now, it would be quite easy for brands to build their

That seems like a lot but a lot of interesting stuff in engineering has come out of LinkedIn, I think a lot of other roles like sales might be there.

Does anyone know a dashboard/list for past Akamai outages. Surprisingly, I haven't seen a lot of news about Akamai downtimes. I searched on Google and the last one I found in a news report is from 2011 when its customers like Face

That's interesting. Do you generally not check if the item is sold by Amazon.com itself? For me, I still prefer Amazon if it is a high value item, I check the seller though. I prefer to have my contact information/payment informat

Yeah, I can understand why they wouldn't want to say much as something like your DMs were accessed will lead to a lot of bad press; but they can't really keep hiding behind that. The less they say, the more the people who are priv

Like the other commenter, I am also skeptical of this. This has to be a big amount and in some untraceable account otherwise why would a well paid Twitter employee put his career in jeopardy over something like this. You can look at audit t

They seem to be tiptoeing around without providing actual extent of the hack. They mentioned data exports being used for 8 non verified accounts, but haven't mentioned "direct messages" as the thing that were not accessed for

Can't answer for Indians, but as far I understand it is a bit complicated. Depending on the classification you are looking at there are like 6-8 branches of Yoga of which "Hatha Yoga" is one. Hatha Yoga is the one which most

Yeah, not sure about that power index calculation myself. But I think it would be very hard to compare things on quality. Like take the example of air power. Sure F-22, F-35, B-2/B-21 combination probably beats any other force. But aft

I think Russia might be fine with those considering they themselves[1] are part of China's flagship BRI project. Didn't Russia and China settle their border differences in early 2000s?[2] [1] https://en.wikipedia.org&#

Compared to US, maybe. But you are not doing justice to them just by looking at the USD expenditure since they produce almost everything within Russia and it might be far cheaper to produce stuff there. Here is what GFP ranks their military

Also, for a Chinese expat the path to permanent residency or citizenship is hard, so moving back would have that as a positive as well.

Some intellectuals would be attracted to principles which aren't there in PRC and might not go but not everyone. Like OP mentioned, for some creating an impact at an scale that is possible inside China might be attractive enough. Also,

Yeah, you are right. Wars between these three are going to be proxy or economic. I think actual war is unlikely between any two of these three but I think skirmishes are very likely. Russia and China/US I doubt as Russia doesn't s

Economically, yes. But they are still strong in defence tech. They are not that easy to push around just by threat of a war.

They are somewhat right. I have built these feature flag/kill switch kind of things and they rarely get tested. Over time it might not even work or have other side effects. On the other hand, a product like Twitter having some content

The ones I saw from Musk, Buffett etc had the actual address.

Yeah, I would have guessed a platform like Twitter would have anti-abuse systems with at least term filters.

Wouldn't they just change the address, it ain't like creating an address has a cost

Some folks are saying some of these accounts had 2FA, so can be the case but I guess if it was a system thing, we might have seen tweets from more prominent accounts.

I wonder why Tesla even needed to go that far to make the product sell. It is already a damn good car, a leader in its space. Also, Waymo which was closest at that time to Level 5 autonomy was far off from a product.

I am all for activism but does this work unless it reaches a sizeable mass, look at how FB brushed aside the impact of protests by their advertisers.

Ben is absolutely right and something needs to be done to fight for the values of liberalism, democracy etc we hold dear but I don't see how this will happen. The world seems more divided than ever. Just 2-3 countries unilaterally acti

Seems like a headline grabbing thing in the current geopolitical context. They are stating $10B in the next 5-7 years. Quite sure a company like Google would have a spend like that earmarked from way before in one of the big emerging market

Yeah, that's where it would be interesting to see compatibility. Like using your favorite messaging app to talk to your friends without being limited by app/platform choice.
