Wait, how? Is Bloomberg so desperate for views to profit from spamming here? Do people get a commission for spamming it here?

Huh? As far as I know most countries already do that more often than you ask for. Everyone had a strong response to the 2009 pandemic, with plans, PPE stockpiles and such. The virus turned out very mild, which lead to heeding to the advice

Why is 2 so obvious? I imagine many implementations would do that, but basically once you exchange your SSO token for the site-specific token, you could stop making any requests to the SSO provider. The only part of your SSO provider's

My bad, I just glanced and conflated two events. The one I had in mind was replacing the police force of Ukraine in 2015. A country of 44 million people fired all the 150 thousand policemen and hired 120 thousand new ones. https:/

Also note this is not about replacing a police force of a city. It's about replacing the police force of a country of 40 million people.

Who would search for useful software on Github in the first place? That's what app stores are for. Then, you contribute to whatever you feel is useful to you, using the Github link on the project's page.

Meh? This is a rebrand of Google+, which turns out to be nice to have for an internal social network. Just without the huge maintenance cost of keeping an actual social network. It has been up for 9 years, might as well be for another,
