To be clear; they took down Tay (the racist bot that unethical AI researchers from Microsoft created), not Twitter. So the parallel here would be shutting down the bot itself instead of the website it is posting on. And as far as I know the

There is no sync to provider servers on any TOTP implementation I use. Nor does a TOTP implementation need to be an application on a phone. Are you perhaps referring to the Google Authenticator or the Microsoft Authenticator apps when you r

I thought Rust didn't have a spec so everything in Rust was essentially undefined behaviour. Has this changed or is the "defined" part still the compiler source code? In that case taking the source code of any C compiler as t

If this is a common complaint that you have, why not just increase the font size and pick fonts you like in the browser settings? The settings are there for a reason.

To be fair Google losing users is not the same as Google losing customers. Their main customers are the companies paying Google to stalk you across the net, and they don't need you to have a Google account to do that.
