Nobody is asking for Safari or Chrome to go away, or to be less good, or even to lose share.
All anyone on the side of competition -- and not some petty, local agenda -- cares about is an even playing field.
Noting the bad outcomes from a lack of competition, to users, developers, and to competing teams and their engineers, is not beyond the pale. It's sunlight.
It's sad that it's so unusual that for some it's blinding. But we must not waver, competition matters.

If your company depends on the web, and it isn't already supporting @owa, now's your chance to make a mark on the question of whether or not the web has a future:

At a corporate level, consider: if we don't put in 10K, and the web stops mattering in a couple of years, will we be OK?

“The 27-nation European Union was built over decades with the core idea of extending peace across the continent. The notion that economic exchanges, trade and interdependence were the best guarantees against war lay deep in the postwar European psyche, even in dealings with an increasingly hostile Moscow.”

In heart of Haiti's gang war, one hospital stands its ground
‘…four men came rushing to a hospital carrying a woman giving birth stretched out on top of a door. Because of gang lockdowns, the woman couldn’t find any transportation to the hospital after her water broke.
“These four men… found her delivering on the street ... When I heard she lost the baby, it shook me,” she said. “The situation in my country is so bad, and there is not much we can do about it.”’

So as far as I understand, an "air frier" is basically a small efficient oven (a convection oven, if you want to be exact). It doesn't do any other kind of magic, right?

Memory Alpha appears to be in a state of some confusion about the Titan and Titan-A, which I guess isn't that surprising given that we've only known about the latter for a week or so
but it claims that the Titan-A was launched in 2401 (current year at the time of the show) even tho Shaw claims to have completed 36 missions in the ship over a 5-year period
on the other hand, Riker's Titan is claimed to have been pulled from service in 2398, so did they have two Titans active at the same time?

Captain Shaw claimed that when he took command of the Titan-A he had to purge the system of Captain Riker's jazz music library
but Riker was the captain of the USS Titan, a Luna-class ship; there's no record of him ever commanding the Titan-A (Neo-Constitution class)
the only explanation is that when Starfleet commissions a ship with the same name as a previous ship, the music library from the previous ship is automatically copied over to the new ship, in order to establish consistent vibes
