you can chalk it down to survivorship bias but most companies don't always end up succeeding in their original mission. if the likes of samsung and netflix stuck to their original purpose and stopped operations, we would not see the im

people pay insane amounts of money and yet don't respect their degree to the extent you'd expect. just see how many people take up a course just for the sake of having a degree.

as a dirty third-worlder, there are far worse ways to spend that kind of money. like someone else posted here, you can earn insane amounts of interest by sitting that money around somewhere. with that, it would have been possible to instead

you'd be surprised to learn how some countries treat their national anthems. if you watch cinema in India, you have to stand up for the national anthem before the movie starts lol. similar situation in Thailand iirc.

new raspberry pi compete with smartphones of the past, which then have comparable compute than servers of the yester years. moore's law has allowed developers to push more and act fast at the cost of being optimal. many such cases.

i think they just need a more aggressive timeout value to fallback to offline mode. i wonder where their engineering made it too complicated to weigh out these scenarios.
