"Lets tie more things to how the stock market is doing" is a crazy take for a fund that's supposed to be stable.

Because the Department of Homeland Security has broad powers and very little checks and balances to it's discretionary use by the Executive branch. It's the thing people have been warning against since it's creation after 9/11.

more than 300 million Americans

I know wiggle room is the gold standard of journalism... but you can just say "all Americans".

They can also be, not to put too fine a point on it, petty dicks about it.

My city banned Flock cameras. So there are a bunch of them juuust outside the city limits. Since official city limits lag behind development they're at intersections you would otherwise think were in the city.

Thankfully this one is built of many redundant layers instead of just one layer of metal.

Will anyone be better than Tom?

Became everyone's friend, became a millionaire, retired, (so far?) avoided falling off the right wing conspiracy cliff. Kind of just a quiet dude.

Having a power-only cable removes that as a possibility.

Disney is also actively arguing in court that if you use the free trial you can't sue them for anything. Ever.

Even if years later you die in one of Disney's hotels because one of Disney's restaurants didn't care about your allergy.

So there's that to worry about now.

Perfect should not be the enemy of Good. Reforming the entire system is not something that just happens. It takes several steps in the right direction and you have to start somewhere.

Mostly I think its fine for all that.

But there's a special circle of hell for projects that rely on it for "documentation".

I get the temptation, I really do. But once you're taking money or have more than a couple people involved and semi-organized you really need at least a small wiki/git-hub landing page with the basics.

I know documentation is a separate skillset and a lot of work in its own right but projects can also stagnate and die because there isn't any.

It should be. But I would be extremely surprised if everything in the terms of service isn't worded something like "you're buying a license to view this content that can be revoked whenever".
