This looks useful, but isn't really usable. For example, your investments tiles all call up the same dialog. For example, clicking "Cryptocurrency" calls up the same modal as clicking "Taxable Investments". Because

What's the latency like with that? When a user causes a wake event, how long until the server is live and ready to play? What sort of wait system do you use? This sounds really cool.

25565 is less common than alternate ports from what I've seen. Most small, individually run, servers are not running 25565.

I found Iceland to be very quiet as well. Likely since there's so few people to make noise in the first place.

I think they're two separate ideas maybe. The "per year" in that sentence is ambiguous. It's unclear if it applies to the $300 million, or both that and the 30 lives.

I think the sentence is just poorly worded. I see this "it costs $300 per year" and "30 lives" as two separate ideas. I think we might just be assuming that its also 30 lives per year, when it might just have been $300 m

Right, but I'm sure there's more out there than just these two. Having a post about photography with minimal photos is somewhat weird.

That also causes replies to sections of text taken out of context to get more traction than they should, feeding the "dunk" culture on Twitter. I'm not sure being able to reply to and highlight an out of context chunk of text

For sure. The "invalid password reset link" one really caused worry. It took until I hit the support page to figure out there was an account issue. Probably should have issued an email notice so I could have seen it when I tried t

I fully expected this to link to a software project of some sort. Apache Jerrycan sounds like a convincing software I would believe existed. Edit: I was surprised to learn that jerrycan.js does not exist either.
