It's not that the elite media institutions are Luddite. It's that a lot of tech people don't give elite media the proper respect it thinks it demands. And that turns into a cycle where media then lashes out with hurt egos, fu

The outrage is due to Facebook being involved. No one (very rightfully) trusts Facebook with their data. I doubt there would have been any outrage at this level if an independent WhatsApp was doing this.

Recommend Zoho as well. Their web client is insanely fast and filled with all sorts of power user features. The gmail client doesn't even compare with how slow it is.

The short answer is that it does not adversely affect that large of a population. Approximately 80% of the farmers in India are not at all affected by these laws. And this is reflected in these "protests". There have been no large

That's how reviews are supposed to function. If the users are outraged at the app for what they feel was wrong behavior by the app and it's associated service, they are entitled to it. Just as I am entitled to leave a glowing revi

Gutenberg is the EMACS of web content creation. Great for creating webpages, just lacks a decent text editor. On a more serious note though, I have personally experienced the lags on Gutenberg. And I am not sure whether the issue is with so
