Counterpoint here, I'm 32 and would have to disagree on the complimentary piece.
In my group of friends, the reels/shorts crowd have eased off on keeping up with the latest fads/memes. Its similar to the old meme cycle of them starting on 4chan and some filtering down to Digg/Reddit, you end up with them being watered down or receive them extremely late in the fad cycle.
Reels have a few problems, the biggest one is randomly getting served gore/death videos. This has never happened to me on tiktok. I feel like (cant substantiate this) reels pushes sex/thirst content more than tiktok does. The final one is the actual social aspect of tiktok vs reels, the comments and interactions on reels are very abusive and spammy compared to tiktok.
I do agree with you about RedNote being a fad, its artificially inflated but its possible the astroturfing of "interaction" will lead to a sustainable level of organic/real interaction with the app. IG is not great for communities.
He's likely to have more disposable incomr and go through a crisis of some sort that many people fill with buying, whilst also deluding themselves they're still in their 20s. I think mid 30s is a pretty hot market for advertisers.
Thank you for researching that. That should be the top answer. I looked at the links above: the first two are definitely data centers[1][2] and they were definitely hit by ransomware. All the other replies on this page are assuming that data centers don't get hit and try to offer rational reasons why not. But I see no a priori reason to think that data centers aren't just as incompetent as any other kind of company.

I went on deferred payments when I lost my job 2 years ago, after missing the first payment they called me and set me up on a 0 payment deferment plan. After I got my job and made my first payment they called me again and set me up on an income based repayment plan.
Both times they called me, emailed me the forms, and helped me set everything up. I think they people who are defaulting are the ones trying to ignore everything and ducking calls.
Parent loans leave the parent on the hook, not the student so I don't know why youre bringing that into the fold.
Things aren't that complicated, you have multiple (usually 8, one for each semester) loans at different interest rates and you need to repay them. Not that hard.
>Parent loans leave the parent on the hook, not the student so I don't know why youre bringing that into the fold.
Because the family arrangement might still be for the student to help repay them -- or be forced to later by changing family economics -- when he graduates.
