carwyn··on WeWork Buys Meetup; Here Is How Meetup.Com Will Change
The biggest issue has been the half-broken hybrid nature of the redesign. It's still not finished with significant inconsistencies between desktop and the mobile app. For a paid for service the state it's been in is disappointing.
carwyn··on Facebook to Let Users Rank Credibility of News
They would be better off auto-blending articles at the other end of users' opinion spectrum into their news feeds (or comment threads) to try and burst the echo chambers.

"Here are some articles at the polar opposite to your norms."

carwyn··on Intel Issues Updates to Protect Systems from Security Exploits
They are still sticking to this line:

"This is not a bug or a flaw in Intel products. These new exploits leverage data about the proper operation of processing techniques common to modern computing platforms, potentially compromising security even though a system is operating exactly as it is designed to."

It's based on the OS X sandbox and xhyve which is in turn is based on bhyve https://blog.docker.com/2016/03/docker-for-mac-windows-beta/
carwyn··on EU Referendum Results
I don't think this is a vote for the the #brexit campaign as such. The major exit votes are from working class areas that are traditionally Labour meaning this could be more of a #Lexit which was hardly covered in the mainstream media. This is also a general protest vote against the establishment not just the EU.
carwyn··on ASUS delivers BIOS/UEFI auto-updates over HTTP with no verification
At least one model of ASUS iKVM (server remote management daughter-board) I've seen has an embedded linux OS that doesn't allow changing of the admin password from the default. Doesn't use shadow passwd files either.
