That scenario becomes a lot more dire when the CEO says

  CEO, to me: Yes, because we are compelled by law 
              backed by jail time or hefty fines.

I pasted a url into the big ole' search bar on the front page, and it took me to the IA.

I can see how that's confusing, though, since it's a different use case than what we associate them as having.

Those are weasel words ("some people say").

They've spent a lot of effort on improving playback and media discovery, and on the contrary, I've heard a lot of positives.

If there's some specific or large deviation from their mission that you perceive from their re-design, I'd like to hear it. I have a great interest in internet preservation, and even though I'm not associated with IA, I would hope to learn more about how people are using the collected work of organizations of the IA and how to better serve those people.

I wouldn't be surprised if a large chunk of them are support and remote center maintenance.

I suspect that they need to worry about xboxes using default time settings.

You can build teams that buck the trend, but it requires strict discipline and high-up leadership that's willing to cannibalize existing profit.

Apple doesn't hand new product categories 100$ million, they make them prototype repeatedly until they have something worthy of investing full resources in.

If you Google 3.141592653589793 then you'll find it cited as π in plenty of places. I wonder what the cause of the discrepancy is?

"Users", the vast majority of users, buy chromebooks because they're billed as inexpensive, secure, zero maintenance windows alternatives.

Not developers.

They can define what "full Windows 10 computer" means. If Microsoft ported it, that $9 ARM based computer that showed up on kickstarter last year could be a "full Windows 10 computer".

They're trying to weed out early adopters to avoid dooming a product with known shortfalls that can be solved with product iteration and time (low FOV, tracking lag, etc).

Like what Google Glass is doing, except they seem to be making it less "glamorous" and possibly tethering it to a PC of some sort.
