The blowback is that they keep clamping down on their API in a misguided attempt to keep Tweets exclusively on Twitter’s properties so that more people can be shown more ads. No one has a problem with Twitter showing ads, but reducing acces

It’s getting pretty annoying that Marco is consistently able to recap yesterday’s top tech news item, add no insight, and hit the top of HN. Or am I missing something? Is there value added in this process? Or do these concerns end up re

I really find the extra space useful (for podcasts, audiobooks, music, and a movie or two for that long flight). I wish the upgrades were cheaper. I know why Apple does it, but I don’t like it; and contrary to Slate’s POV, I’m not a sucker,
