They’re only popular because they appeal to the real luxury product, like counterfeit Rolexes.

Yeah it really felt hammered in as a way for the author to try to look literate and punchy, but it does not work.

I've been subconsciously doing this forever and after hundreds if no thousands of interaction have lately been assessing its outcome as more neutral than the article frames it. On the long run while mildly pleasant, you realise how shallow these conversations are and they have not brought anything valuable to your life. Maybe stopping for a while would lead to further realisation but I don't think so.

How can you seriously pretend to do any study with only eight people involved? Especially when your company is worth billion. It just calls for bad press and criticism of amateurism.

I mean, yes? A very broad spectrum of people need to use the internet, and cloudflare has inserted themselves in the middle of it.

I don't necessarily find a problem with them, but its weird how they boasted about massive scale and importance of this, but then only just went with 8 tests.


Write access to public repos is not optional?? As well as full read and write user data?? Flee, far.

You can use PAT
