Grinding out your goals in a 48-hour vision quest-esque process like this, especially for someone early career or facing larger questions about trajectory, seems odd. Five years is an infinite amount of time for some people and especially so with pace of change and uncertainty these days.

I suppose this might work for some, but it comes off as excessively performative and not actually practical.

Embracing AI writing would absolutely be a disruption of the bad kind.

Hurricane Electric (HE) provides, among other things, DNS services. When a domain is placed in `clientHold`, as has happened to HE due to a spurious phishing report, it causes the domain to no longer resolve. So the DNS records for HE and all of HE's customers are gradually becoming unresolvable as caches expire.

This is pretty wildly inaccurate specifically in Project Farm's case. Most "consumable" parts of tests, like bolts, are swapped out from test to test. From what I've seen he's pretty transparent when that's not the case.

He also explicitly buys all products with his own money (some by way of viewers contributing, of course) and products are sourced from what folks in the comments are asking for.

A huge benefit of many (most?) chat apps is that communication can be async. If it requires a live conversation, then respectfully it probably warrants scheduling time.

The author is arguing that the “udp approach” to these conversations is less intrusive, and also alleviates doubt/anxiety about the nature of the conversation.

Interesting idea. But what you're describing is absolutely not "ransomware."

> The biggest problem was that the company became the arbiter of what was offensive and what was not.

Companies already have to do this and they have done this for a long time. There are undoubtedly offensive words, phrases, and actions which a company actively discourages or will not tolerate.

The problem is that society progresses in disjointed ways, and common vernacular often lags far behind that as well. Instead of waiting for the overwhelming majority of people to understand that some words which once were perceived as neutral actually carry a darker, less-desirable connotation, Twitter (and others) are working to get ahead of that.

Sure, the lines may be blurry now, but that's no reason to claim that companies weren't arbiters of offensive words or actions in the past.
