- At Reddit, the beatings will continue until morale improves. (The Verge)
Many of the major subreddits, each with millions of users, remain dark, and Reddit's approach has moved from threatening the moderators to, well, still threatening the moderators. They don't really seem to have any other ideas.
Now, the moderators of many of the subreddits are little better than a horde of mini-Hitlers, but so are the people actually running the company. The problem is that despite all the hitlering there is a lot of worthwhile content stuck behind the blackout curtains.
And the only thing Reddit cares about is monetising that content; it doesn't matter how that affects the moderators or the users.
They've really taken a page out of the Big Hasbro Book on Customer Relations.

- Western Digital's new SN580 SSD delivers a DRAMless TLC drive for 5 cents per GB. (AnandTech)
There are other drives priced like that at retail, but this is the official price.
It's a PCIe 4 drive too, but speeds are only a little above 4GB per second. Which is very, very fast, but not full PCIe 4 speed.
$50 for 1TB is a great price and it should work fine for most users.
- The only problem is their own high-end SN850X model is selling for $59 for 1TB. (Tom's Hardware)
This is a great drive and runs at full PCIe 4 speeds, and has a DRAM cache to help with writes and random I/O. Definitely worth the extra $9.
- Maza is a financial startup targeting the lucrative illegal immigrant market. (Tech Crunch)
What?
- Stop giving them ideas: The Password Game will make you want to break your keyboard. (Ars Technica)
Yes, it's exactly what you think it is.

I picked up a 2TB SN850X a few months ago to replace a 1TB Samsung 980 Pro that was getting closer to full than I liked. The one isn't a hell of a lot faster than the other, but that's because the other was fast, too. Both of them are great drives that don't fall on the floor when you exhaust the pSLC cache.
