The flipside of requiring a provider to submit paperwork to terminate your service, is the situation where in order to setup a new server with DO you'd have to file paperwork yourself. Can you imagine sending a paper letter every time you need to spin up a VM?
Which one do you prefer? paperwork in both directions or no paperwork?
I think that + allowing customers to add more than one credit card to an account are reasonable suggestions. Maybe they do that now - this was 7 years ago.
I'm not trying to shirk responsibility though. We didn't, for example, pass the buck by telling our customers our site was offline because of DO.
I can appreciate how terrible must have been to suddenly find all your servers shut down, and I understand how easy it is to set up billing and forget, especially with the day to day stress of running a startup, but what would you have done if you were DO?
> our site was offline because of DO.
Or maybe it's because of the bank that expired your credit card?
Wikipedia seems filled with <90% accurate information, which is misinformation (or BS). I could imagine an obvious reason, that these volunteers with limited expertise and facility with the information (i.e., they aren't experts in the field who know all the sources well) write what they know. Also, it is up to Wikipedia's standard de facto, and most people don't go beyond that norm.
Instead of lots of people providing <90% accurate misinfo, we need a few people producing 99.999% accurate info. (Seriously, if you are producing <90% accurate info, stop. The Internet has infinite amounts of it, if there was ever a marginal benefit to it, we don't need more now.)
It's easy to copy and share accurate info, in theory, rather than creating or sharing more BS. The other problem is that such info is often placed behind paywalls; the intellectual elite get it, but not the public. If you want an accurate science info, look at McGraw-Hill's AccessScience (the decendent of their leading Encyclopedia of Science and Technology), "written by world-renowned scientists, including 46 Nobel Prize Laureates" - not exactly Wikipedia. Unfortunately, you'll probably need an institutional subscriptioin. Who cares if high school kids (or anyone else) have accurate info?
Is the second part of that statement necessary?
Means, I think, "given over to overthrows".

etc. Also unlike thesaurus.com, the search bar actually focuses so you can just start typing!
It's not perfect, I need to do a lot of editing, but nonetheless I use it almost every time I write, now.
The site is a little over 30,000 static HTML pages built with a number of TypeScript scripts that compile some sources for synonyms, parts of speech, and the quotes.
> It was a good decision to invent tcltest rather than, say, "testtcl". Or, better yet, do not say the latter, at least in English.
