The new approach, of deactivating _some_ links without recent activity, has got to be more complicated than keeping them all working. I'm not google, but I keep a few million redirects working at a place with a longer web presence. Totally possible.

Hands down, the worst rental cars are always Chevrolets. I currently have a trailblazer. It is a total piece of junk. CarPlay doesn't work half the time. The throttle response is a joke. Put the pedal on the floor and the engine revs but the car does not move. I am ruined by my EV.

This is terrifying. No software engineer should be doing anything like these kids are doing. A 19 year old software engineer is the worst; they think they are smart AF, but are, in fact dumber than rocks.
