Uggghh, this is a pet peeve of mine. Particularly when dealing with people that are not domain experts. Like why do I even exist, if not to provide a good data point for what the product you're developing for me should look like?

If you don't want to fill them out, don't... Filling them out lets you customize your link preview on twitter. If you don't care about Twitter, why would this affect you at all?

That's so insane re: 'ghetto children'. How is that tolerated, but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stolen_Generations#Emergence_o... is considered unacceptable?

Nah, having been on active duty being involved in cyber warfare and later joining the corporate world, the latter is so much more advanced and interesting, with generally a lot better people.

I generally support this- as a FAANG employee I sometimes think an RNG would be a much better signal than a lot of our interview voodoo. At least then we wouldn't be hiring unlucky people!

Majority of people are in a combat zone for about 6mo at a time, and not a lot of them ever end up going at all. I never was selected for any tax exempt duty in my 8 years as an enlisted member of the USAF, and anecdotally know a lot of peo

WhatsApp is default E2E and is quite visibly indicated in the application. You can probably make the call on how visible the E2E features in Messenger are yourself if you take a look.
