That’s a fantastic comparison, because the reason they added lead to gasoline was just to increase convenience a tiny bit, and they’ve poisoned the world in the process.

The good news is: Impossible as it may seem, we banned it worldwide and its bad effects are now mostly gone.

Makes you think.

I used to work at a small shop that made little plastic vampires.

Hi and welcome to my post-mortem on why we did not take over Steam’s marketshare.

Slide #1: We did not tell anyone we were trying to do this.

Sorry, guys. This one is on me. I honestly just forgot. Like, I had it as a reminder on my phone, but it was there for so long, I just ignored it. Whoops.

I worked in Big Accounting for a while, and we'd often have big leads from client companies come in to try and explain their projects to us (so we could help them get grant funding)

and that was always *at best* unhelpful

This isn't even nearly the most interesting part of the story, but this quote at the start:

"But ultimately, Goliath lost."

Like... yeah, that's... that's what that whole story is... that story has *one* takeaway and it's...
I legitimately didn't know they were competing with Steam and it's crazy to me that they burnt so much money on what sounds like something with very little (or wildly misguided) market research.

If you support Gavin Newsom, even in the slightest, even if it's just his AI slop social media posts, you're signaling you're as eager to get rid of trans people as the most rabid Trumpist. You just want it done with a frown instead of a laugh.
gavin newsom says he wants to pass legislation banning trans people from playing sports in california
See, that one sort-of bothers me less, if for no other reason than that it's visible and it makes some amount of internal sense. I genuinely had *no idea* this thing was going on in Z-A.

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering
