Just how out of touch is this guy? 50% inflation MoM within the next 90 days? Does he not understand the multiple system shocks that would need to take place for that to even come close to reality? Balaji, please - get out of your bubble. G

That is just fundamentally not true. Disneyland in particular has had a steady, growing problem over the past 15-20 years, accelerated recently with the rise of photo-sharing-sites like Instagram, where they are fighting a balance between k

The comment I would have to the author is this -- it is all well and good to demonstrate how difficult it is to opt out of marketing surveillance. Great. Completely on board. The question is, how did this make your experience of the park an

Stripe.js should include an invisible captcha by default. You effectively need to have that built into any payment form you create; someone must pass the captcha before generating a Stripe token. That's the only way to slow down a card

I'm trying to envision the pitch to, for example, Fromsoftware, makers of Elden Ring. Ignore the cross-game component for a second because that's mind-bogglingly dumb. "You could have artificial scarcity of Rivers of Blood*!

You look at the biggest games of the year: God of War, Elden Ring, Stray, etc. Shoehorning in NFT-style assets into these games is just a ridiculous proposal, especially ones with any kind of "marketplace" that you would have to s
