Happening to me as well. Had to come to this post with a browser to see comments.

I use it all the time

Maybe he can sign an EO to make DST permanent.

How about binary. 0 = cold 1 = hot

My mortality! Hit 45 this year and it kinda feels like it's all downhill from here.

Health is ok but that seems tenuous as I'm pretty out of shape so I feel like I'm not "set up" yet to be a healthy older person. When something does go wrong I'm not sure if I should worry about getting it treated or just live with it.

It seems futile to learn new skills and such since I'm not sure about the payoff (ROI).

Family/kids/job/money are all pretty great so I don't have anything to complain about, but I'm still kind of feeling like I'm about to crest the hill of life and want to ensure I'm making the best of it and prepared for my eventual demise.

I don't want to die! I really like being alive and kind of wish I had immortality (with a safety kill switch of course so I don't have to endure the heat-death of the universe or get stuck inside a star somewhere lol)

No no, you're really not far off. Few, if any people here are advocating for CF to continue to provide the same services for the same price. It seems clear to most (including the author) that a price increase was justified. The problem we're all having is how they went about it, agnostic of the client.

(I don't care who the client was and don't care one way or the other about online casinos.)

If they're charging $120,000 per client, it only takes 17 potential lost customers to constitute "millions." It's realistic that at least 17 companies might be put-off with the way this was handled.

Just because you don't like online casinos, doesn't mean cloudflare didn't completely fuck this up. They could have negotiated reasonable terms to increase their revenue on this account instead of going the route of stonewalling and extortion.

So not only did they lose this customer, but this bad press will ensure a lot of others never sign up with them, potentially costing them millions in foregone sales.

Yeah this was a massive boondoggle..

Wait are you joking or is this real? That is a ridiculous name/version.

Do you have to mash it? Or will pressing it normally work?

I don't know the economics, truly, but there are a LOT more expenses involved in running a large business like Uber on top of driver wages, such as technology service and hardware costs, programmers and central admin/customer service, rent or cost of buildings including utilities, insurance, taxes, fees, consulting and auditing, cybersecurity, legal, and probably quite a bit more I can't think of. Running a business is friggin expensive.

Definitely not defending paying workers less, just trying to explain why they still might not be in the black even in your scenario.
