Interestingly this phone number complaint only shows up among techies and especially Americans. You guys don't get to keep your phone number? I've had the same number now for 20 years here in Europe, it may as well be synonymous with my identity.

In fact, I'd say the phone number requirement, or at least option, actually promotes adoption in parts of the world. I wouldn't have been able to get my mother to use Signal if it didn't work with a phone number, for instance. She's not gonna make an account just for a chat app. Phone number she already has.

None. The statement is false. The law didn't change. What did change was the enforcement thereof.

What's absolutely scummy is that "laws are changing in your region" is not what happened. The law hasn't significantly changed. What has changes is that the regulator is finally enforcing the law.

For some little config it's fine, but it's horrible when used when you have thousands upon thousands of lines of it. Lots of DevOps tools tend to use it like a fully-blown turing-complete programming language, and each has a different DSL of doing variables, loops etc. And that becomes an abomination.

I don't agree with the one you're replying to, but trademark is usually bound to a sector. I'm pretty sure Pepsi trademarked all sectors known to mankind, but many companies don't do that. If I start a bakery called FooBarBaz I can trademark that just fine even if there's a software company called FooBarBaz that trademarked the name only for software.

This surely can't be legal? Right? Right?
