I reckon if you focus on learning how to learn in your 20s, then you can really head off that aging problem in a big way (not completely, but a fair bit).

If they are actually funny, don't punch down too much, and can turn it off when needed.

It's not good if that's your whole personality.

I mean, if the main draw-card is convenience, then signal isn't going to have much holding power (especially when combined with the network affect problem and attentions grabbing design of other message apps).

Signal will only really succeed if there is a critical mass of people in your circles who care about security to some degree (it works well for me for this reason).

Doesn't every phone have an SMS app? What's the benefit of having SMS in signal?

The list is long enough that it has it's own wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Coca-Cola

Ah, right. In a way that's even better - you were stacking up comparably against competition.

Maybe you mean figuratively?

Even if you only have a 10% chance of winning, if you take a chance like that 10 times then it's more than 65% likely that you'll succeed at least once
