I think that is obvious. The multiplayer feature of later versions of Bomberman was riotous fun, laugh out loud stuff when played with your friends. By comparison the NES original is lonely and sad.

Add a netplay option please, so that i can drop into a game and blow up other human players, or a version with red vs blue teams etc

Please do not stay quiet. I think most of us know how incredibly difficult it is to lock things down without there being holes, and without impacting the team culture and killing productivity. If you managed to do that you have a lot of contribute.

While the announcement says they are letting people go because they got too big to be able to move quickly, I think that in reality they are replacing many of these roles with agents. You can buy a ton of tokens for what each Australian employee must cost.

That is completely normal at the companies i have worked at!

In one case i let slip something while talking to the CEO, and he said "but it's good that you guys don't do that, right? Otherwise we would be in alot of trouble with [name of regulatory authority]". And i said "yeah ofcourse we dont do that".

Ooops

That was happening on our websites at work, and users started complaining about it. The problem was due to the cloudflare default settings, which we dialed down in response to the complaints.

I think for web sites you really love and care about, you should write to them and let them know that the user experience sucks. If enough people complain they may fix the captchas like we did!
