It's not complaining to provide critique, especially when the tool is being marketed and part of a technique to sell services. The point of my post was to say why I'm not interested in using it.

Why not just let users run the web app locally? There's no reason it needs to be remote. Also, the mere fact that it sends any data, no matter what you say it contains is a non-starter at many places. And even module names can contai

Yea, it could have been more rapid or slower. Perhaps if it cooled down faster at the very start? I'm not sure, but I'd wager that the conditions couldn't have been that different. And it took multicellular organisms a few

Not a particularly well written article, but I haven't ever really believed that jacking up threes is a global maximum in the basketball optimization problem. For example, if you have a team that posts up in the middle, actually moves

It's not a feeling. It's exactly what happens. It's completely blatant. For some reason, whenever you're a billionaire or company, things suddenly get so difficult that you can claim that it's impossible to be held

So in addition to the mockery, they're paying people to do what they were already going to do for free? Small government and low spending indeed ...

They're hard to come by because people think rockets magically solve all of our problems and so any problems they introduce are ignored for the "greater good".

It's not malicious. It's the reality. I already have deregistered my phone number. Their contacts for me have no mention of my email address now. They are sending a message to a phone number, and it still sends it as an iMessage.

What do you propose? The only way to change is either voting, money, or violence. I'm generally lost as what to do.
