Beyond that, agree it seems like it can just be anything in virtually any title
All this blog post can do is make people nervous and lead to customers moving elsewhere. Revenue will drop, and further compound their desire to not invest in the platform. What's the benefit/upside in publishing such an article?
All unlimited liability insurance companies (e.g. motor insurers in the UK) have reinsurance to take the hit on claims over a certain level - e.g. 100k, 1m etc.
For extreme black swan risks, this is how you prevent the insurance company just going bankrupt.
Reinsurers themselves then also have their own reinsurance, and so on. The interesting thing is that you then have to keep track of the chain of reinsurers to make sure they don't turn out to be insuring themselves in a big loop. A "retrocession spiral" could take out many of the companies involved at the same time, e.g. the LMX spiral.
It is common for founding engineers to start with a preexisting way of working that they import from their previous more-scaled company, and that approach is refined and compounded over time
It does mean starting with more than is necessary at the start, but that doesn't mean it has to be particularly complex.

The app I work on is a content app, but they decided it did not qualify as a "reader" app because we had polls alongside the content, which were interactive and therefore excluded us from the definition.
289 EUR for all 15"/16" MBPs
The only reason they'd require a full top case replacement would be if there was additional damage making them unable to guarantee safety of the new battery
Go just does incredibly well in these kinds of conditions. The only reason we allocate 128MiB is because that's the minimum Google Cloud Run allows - we'd probably go for 64MiB on most systems otherwise
