I reckon if you focus on learning how to learn in your 20s, then you can really head off that aging problem in a big way (not completely, but a fair bit).

It is what it isn't?

If they are actually funny, don't punch down too much, and can turn it off when needed.

It's not good if that's your whole personality.

I mean, if the main draw-card is convenience, then signal isn't going to have much holding power (especially when combined with the network affect problem and attentions grabbing design of other message apps).

Signal will only really succeed if there is a critical mass of people in your circles who care about security to some degree (it works well for me for this reason).

I mean, that depends on the company to some degree.. CEOs of small companies often do a lot of work. But yeah, contribution to pay ratio is usually way lower than most other workers.

Doesn't every phone have an SMS app? What's the benefit of having SMS in signal?

The CEO is an employee, right?

The list is long enough that it has it's own wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Coca-Cola

Absolutely. They can't use it back.

Yeah, dunno, I'd never considered it until this post. I have heard the insult used by Australians though, but I guess hyperbole is nothing new in insults

As a non-american, that insult is far more devastating
