       | Offtopic but there is a strange bug on this website when browsing
       | to another article through the "previous" and "next" buttons at
       | the bottom of the page. The displayed title changes as expected
       | but the content doesn't.
       | 
       | I was able to see the same content titled as "Beam..." then
       | "Announcing Vitess 13" when switching to previous. And when
       | switching tab and back, the page was displaying "Beam..." but the
       | content was about Vitess 13.

       | This is a good move by Intel, they need to catch up to AMD in the
       | embedded and automotive markets.

       | Tesla making the move from Intel to AMD SOCs wasn't a good look
       | for them.

       | Off topic: Can't recommend such a divisive topic as the demo
       | splash for the webapp interface. The last thing you want is
       | potential users coming to your website and getting turned off
       | because they are on one or another side of a topical debate.

       | I know it's cheeky but honestly just emanating the idea of "NFTs
       | for pictures of food" into the world hit me in a way I don't want
       | to be hit.

       | Is it a tool that allows you to communicate one to many within an
       | organization?
       | 
       | Seems like that already has a large number of solutions with huge
       | user bases.
       | 
       | What is the magic dust that makes this interesting to adopt?
