The number of DVD subscribers that netflix has is definitely less than 2 million. That number is three years old, and in 2019, they lost 500,000 subscribers. This service will not exist in less than six years.

There are a few good reasons for this that doesn't make this as bad as it looks at first glance. Firstly, the median salary of workers in India is much lower than salaries you will find in the west. $8,000 AUD is more than the median s

Bob Iger has had a lot of vanity projects over at Disney. The amount of debt that was put on after Disney acquired Fox (and not even all the parts they really wanted - Comcast got that!) is pretty high. A good overview can be found on this

This is a misconception. ISO8601 has six versions, is 14 pages long, and defines way to many ways to represent dates and times. Everyone should follow RFC 3339. https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3339#section-5.6

Disney has never had a history of really being any good at physical media releases, but at this point it's starting to become a bit of a joke. Even their 'higher end' 4k UHD media releases are missing features that Disney+ ha

The individual components are really nice, but mixing and matching them seems to make a user interface that is condensed and overly complex. YouTrack specifically comes to mind here. It's a fantastic bug tracker, but the UI is missing
