Not implementing it yourself does not imply that you should use auth-as-a-service. There are plenty of auth libraries out there for your programming language of choice. Take a look at their source code and see how much stuff is in there to

Taxing billionaires is a simplistic knee-jerk reaction that doesn't address the actual problems people have. It just feeds people's hate. Consider that people have a lot of problems with Amazon's practices. So suddenly, every

The US government admits to 8% inflation in the last 12 months. This price increase seems completely fair given the number of years it's been unchanged.

The alternative is to walk away. No one should be forced to do business with you on your terms, even when that someone is an unlikable corporation.

Then the startup should explain it. They prefer to say nothing on the topic. So, they typically care a lot about the UX of product users but not about the UX of their employees. Seems shortsighted.

You seem to be conveniently leaving out that we all enjoy having air conditioning and modern forms of transportation, to name a few positive things. But yes, society is here trading coral reefs for NFT art, right?

If a service is useful but you're short on money, write them a polite note, and explain the situation and how much you would be able to pay. A good chunk of smaller companies will accommodate you. Maybe even the occasional big one. How

Gambling is not a waste of resources. It is a transfer of resources from one entity to another. It's a zero-sum game. On an individual level, gambling is roughly breaking even in the long run (say, 95% retention of the resources).

I did say that it's applicable to some extent and I'd bet that extent is more than you think! There are plenty of horror stories that are below $10 million.
