Extended updates always cost money, and this is pretty cheap relative to extended support for previous versions of Windows. I don't understand why it's newsworthy?
Windows 10 is nearly ten years old.

I'm glad my ISP supports net neutrality, in addition to providing 10Gbps symmetric fiber for cheaper than 1Gbps with Comcast or AT&T. https://www.sonic.com/transparency
IMO internet service would be better if we had more small(-ish) local ISPs like Sonic, and more municipal ISPs (ran by the city, usually as a non-profit), instead of most people in the USA being forced to connect through one of just a few very large companies that don't really care about you as a customer.
What do you mean? Dropbox is integrated into Windows using the Cloud Files API, which handles dynamically downloading files as needed, the ability to mark files so they're always available offline, etc.
Or did you mean a deeper integration like how Windows shows ads for OneDrive?
For the same money Microsoft offers equal storage, plus office.
Plus email! Same with Google (Google Workspace).
The point of including worldwide stock is to reduce risk in case the US has a recession, as not all other countries will be affected by that. The aim of the Bogleheads three-fund portfolio is to be reasonably balanced in terms of risk vs reward, which is why it includes bonds too. Past performance is not indicative of future performance, and in general it's better to diversify (investing entirely in a single country isn't really diversifying)
If you're not risk-averse then 100% US stock is fine, just be prepared for larger drops than if it was more diversified.
Reusable code is usually pulled out into a library and reused that way, rather than copied and pasted into a new project. You might copy and paste some boilerplate to new projects but it wouldn't be anywhere near 25% of the code.
I'm not sure why someone downvoted you (it wasn't me!) because your comment did seem like a genuine question.
I really don't believe the headline. Google has thousands of teams of engineers that are writing code for hundreds of different products... There's no way all of them are generating anywhere near 25% of their new code via AI.
Unless they're doing something like generating massive test fixtures or training data sets using AI and classifying them as "code" 🤔
it’s not going to be accidentally hit
How often do you accidentally press a power button on a desktop computer? I don't even do that on my laptop, where the power button is close to the keyboard.
The market is wild sometimes. I work for a fairly large company. Sometimes in our earnings reports, we exceed EPS and revenue expectations (which is good of course), but don't exceed them as much as some analysts think we'll exceed them, so the stock goes down. The expectation is that we'll always exceed the expectations lol
If you're investing more than a few percent of your portfolio in any one company, you're probably gambling though.
I read a forum post many years ago about people that put all their retirement money into some company that was going to be the sole supplier for some components for the iPhone. Apple didn't end up going with them, and the company was relying entirely on that contract. The company went bankrupt, and the people that invested lost all their money.
In the end, why invest in a small number of companies when you can invest in practically all of them? Bogleheads three fund portfolio (total US stock + total world stock + bonds) is very simple yet will beat most actively-managed portfolios over the long run.
For DNS challenges, I personally prefer using acme-dns. It's a separate DNS server that only serves ACME DNS challenges. I felt a bit uneasy using an access token for my actual DNS host since it grants full read/write access to every record. acme-dns reduces the attack surface.
Let's Encrypt follows CNAMEs and supports IPv6-only DNS servers, so you could just run acme-dns on a spare IPv6 address (assuming your internet provider has a static IPv6 range, or you have a VPS with IPv6).
.su only exists because the ccTLD retirement policy wasn't fully defined until recently.
