The dump includes email addresses, both government and private. That does not seem good. There is a surprisingly little spam. Either that is about to change, or spam didn't get included in the FOIA.

$32M is not a cost the requestor bears, but an estimate of the cost the city bears. IT estimated the requestor fees to be $21k/year assuming 10TB of data. Clearly, IT were estimating the costs of releasing all email text, because FOIA

You are not missing anything. The link does make the exact opposite point: "you will not be able to argue that you should be protected by the Constitution."

I try to avoid telling a 3 year old what they are incapable of doing. The 3 year old will tell you what they want to do. At 3, my little guy's favorite toy was rated for 8+ years old, and his favorite game was chess. He never cared if

Im completely agree, but wire fraud has been illegal since 1872. It is so beautifully vague, it an extremely common prosecutorial tool. I would love to see it overturned, but that seems incredibly unlikely.

I was deliberately vague, because it has been a while since I read about this, and because nothing is entirely certain. The earliest fragments are tiny e.g. P52 and they don't have a precise date. There is also heated debate about when

Where do you draw the line? The canonical gospel fragments also date from hundreds of years after Christ, and some of the later fragments seem also increasingly bizarre.

The article isn't asking why Atlassian is successful. Having a great product generating word of mouth is typical table stakes for success. The article is asking how Atlassian grew so fast while only spending 12 and 21% of their revenue

Atlassian's low sales costs might simply be a function of who they are selling to. E.g. Jira & Salesforce both have the same approximate ease of use, and the same approximate level of configurability. Sales implementations are typi
