More ironically, some of them sell anti-spam SaaS. I recently received the following email:

Spread the disease, sell the cure

This always made sense to me because they are next to each other on an AZERTY keyboard: tab,A,Z,E,R,T,Y,U,I,O,P,^,$,return

Another roman car like effect.

The room was only illuminated with infrared light which means that you can’t easily discriminate color + taking and processing photos in color would probably take more time and storage

> Ride-hailing apps like Uber and Lyft have increased the number and intensity of traffic jams, Airbnb and other home-sharing apps are accused of breaking down neighborhoods’ social fabric, and self-driving cars are causing all kinds of trouble [...]

If one accident is "a lot of trouble" then humans are way more troublesome... this whole statement seems like a real stretch. Airbnb may be driving housing crisis in some states and countries, for sure. But Uber causing traffic jams ? I don't really see where it's coming from.

From the README:

> Prettymapp is based on a rewrite of the fantastic prettymaps project by @marceloprates.

They should have maybe gone with a name that pays tribute but differentiates. PrettiMapp? French derived: JoliesCarte? BellesCartes? JollyCart? BellCart?

edit: those sound like ecommerce spots. What about CharMApp?

I'm always flabbergasted by the price of fiber plans in NA. The max you could pay for a household in France is less than 50€ for 8Gbps (and i assume prices are similar or lower in other EU countries), even accounting for wage gap it's quite a difference.

> unfairly benefiting from the existing terminology created by codeweavers

Seems like a stretch. I don't see a problem with reusing good terminology. It's not like it's trademarked.

I can see "bottles" becoming the generic term, it makes more sense than "prefixes".

This. Bottles are preconfigured packages of programs on Wine, while prefixes are just Wine sub-environments.

Technically, you would have to send a request to every party to delete all your PII.

What is your point ? I don't doubt your story but how is it relevant ? There is no established causation here

Why think in binary? His anecdote can be inspirational for others and testing his correlation is cheap to try out for others in similar predicaments.

I do. It's company policy where i work. It's very uncommon in my country though (France) to take off shoes at work, even though it's very common at home.
