This is a great post by @jasonfried - He makes great points about how Google zealously protects their brand but affords no protections for others. Size matters & comes at a time when @Google has departed from the 20 year motto of "don't be evil"

Very Cool idea and initiative by the community (and new folks in particular) to take all the video info and curate and server it up using DRUPAL! @drupal_org

they are very evil at Ziprecruiter - business model of bad service and confusion. Cool Blue will never use @ZipRecruiter for posting jobs again @ZRJobs teapawt.net/bosimmons/status/99351…
Warning ... be careful of @ZipRecruiter NOT customer friendly. =AOL of old days impossible to closed. Just found out they were charging $9.99/mo for account that was TOTALLY PAUSED. After 45 min BS call they say you can only stop charges if you call by phone. #fraud #evil

Cool Blue is not an ISP or hosting company but this seems to be an area that regulation should and could help .... see FDA commissioner calls on Internet providers to help police opioid offerings goo.gl/Wepir1
At Cool Blue we like this common sense approach to balancing assisting the User over burdensome "Security Best Practices" that really don't achieve much ... spot on Article by @travisjeffery “‘username or password incorrect’ is bullshit” hackernoon.com/username-or-p…

I was reading this same post on Medium and saw @mikeschinkel a WP professional echo and extend the warning. Interesting insight that the same application of the npm vulnerability can apply to Word Press Plug ins & themes ! teapawt.net/mikeschinkel/status/95…
This is a scary warning about how someone could p0wn your site if you use their evil npm module and steal your visitor’s login and CC info.
But the same could be done with a 3rd party WordPress plug or theme you use on your site, too.

Have you ever thought Net Promoter Scores are a bad idea? We have and @Jmspool wrote a wise post on why. He even considers NPS harmful (and What UX Professionals Can Do About It)” by @jmspool blog.usejournal.com/net-prom…

If you have old passwords and thought oh those don't matter - realize they are likely exposed on the Dark Web. If you think your passwords are safe CBI challenges you to read this post. A security expert friend located our email address and an old "dumb" simple password there! teapawt.net/4iQ/status/93954949543…
We've tested and validated the largest aggregate credential database found in the dark web to date #databreach #credentials #Cybersecurity
