  The first PlayStation came out, and Macs transitioned to Power PC. AOL is launched. Amazon was founded. Microsoft announces it will no longer sell or support the MS-DOS operating system separately from Microsoft Windows

  CompuServe when I first got online in 1995, MSN Messenger, the very occasional foray into Usenet. Tried AOL, ICQ, a few others. But never enjoyed them. Had both AIM and Yahoo Meseenger But only very rarely used them.

  @KwakuMMNT 112 by default. Jagged Edge were broadcasting to us using 2001 AOL dial up. Horrible signal.

  @reece_dinsdale The other two are "Welcome to AOL: you're connected!" and "Goodbye...th-that's it." Damn I need to put these on my new laptop!

  @Miss_Snuffy Self pity finds many friends online from the earliest days of community forums up to today's toxic social media. "Share your support" we used to say at AOL and people did and lots was valuable, but a deep streak of 'alternative truth' bedded down there too to solicit attention.

  @SADDAY_EVERYDAY WCW would still be here today if AOL/Time Warner cared about pro wrestling at LEAST enough to sell it to Bischoff. Guaranteed money wouldn't have done ****. They wouldn't have gone broke trying to pay Hulk Hogan. It's stupid to think otherwise.

  @AnaAnsan3 Nintendo and Sony would have been stuck in the late 1990s with AOL service setups if it weren’t for PC gaming and the original Xbox (the original Steam Machine).

  @GraduatedBen You still don't have a point, and you ignored all of mine, which made your initial points impossible. But let's go through this comment, too. The 2000 by-right ruling is real and it's well-known, but it's basically irrelevant for your point. The buildout pace for DCs is well-documented! Through 2013, the county permitted an average of 6 DCs a year, then with streamlining in 2014, they got that up to ~14/yr. Circa 2000-10, Loudoun added ~37k Asians, when the industry was a few dozen buildings employing a couple thousand people, half of whom were contractors (and thus irrelevant). AOL alone had more engineers in Dulles than the whole DC industry did, and AOL's former Loudoun HQ was eventually converted into a DC. That is to say, office tech employment that *actually* imports engineers and such preceded and were replaced by DCs. If concurrency is your standard, then the 2020s make your theory look terrible because permitted square footage went from 26.4m in 2021 to 53m in 2025, while Loudoun's Asian population grew only 5.2% since 2020 (slowest rate in decades). The point (?) about Prince William County gets the geography wrong, too. The DC district covers 9,500 acres of industrially zoned land along Rt 28/Innovation near Manassas, which is not Gainesville or Bristow. The ZIPs hosting the overlay's operating DCs are 20109 (10.3% Asian), 20110 (5.4%), and 20112 (6.9%), which means basically being at or below the 10% county baseline. The Gainesville-area project is the separate PW Digital Gateway initiated by QTS in 2021, with a comp plan approved in 2022, then litigated, leaving essentially nothing there during the demographic window you've described. The 18% figure you cited is misleading because it's clearly not just Indians. You only get from 14.6% "Asian alone" to ~18% using "Alone or in any combination", while the county baseline 10% is based on "Asian alone", and Bristow 20136 is 10.8% (13.1% combo), which is nowhere near 18%. Adding 12,000 Asians since 2020 is also just wrong for PWC. It was 10.3% Asian (~49.7k) in 2020, and the latest ACS puts it at 48,594 (9.9%) Asians, with the Asian population estimated to have fallen ~2.5% since 2020. I think maybe you looked at ACS 5-year windows straddling 2020, conflating earlier growth? The actual Asian surge in PWC was 2010-20 (+19.85k), with 9 tracts >15% Asian at 2020, before Gateway existed, and before most overlay campuses operated. Also, Indian + Pakistani are only 33% of PWC's Asians (9,642 + 6,592). Filipino, Korean, and Vietnamese communities are the plurality of the area's Asians. In Fairfax, Indians *are* 23% of the Asian population, but Loudoun is 50% Indian, not 60%, and you only get to ~61% by adding Pakistanis. But this just reflects earlier waves of settlement anyway. Fairfax's Asians date to the 1980s-90s, and Loudoun and western PWC were built after 2,000, during the era of H-1Bs. This undermines your theory, because EVERY post-2000 tech metro exurb in America is Indian plurality regardless of the presence of DCs! Frisco, Forsyth County GA, Edison, etc. If Indians were a DC signature, you'd expect them in Boydton, Quincy, and Prineville, but they're nonexistent. You just kind of skipped over all of this and failed to explain why the DC boom hasn't also been an Indian boom, which is what your theory predicts.

  WSJ profiled Bending Spoons this week — the Milan company that owns AOL, Evernote, and Vimeo, run by executives in their 30s and staffed by people who are sometimes younger than the software they've been hired to fix. It's actually a story about why so many applicants never make it through the door. Hundreds of thousands apply every year — enough that the rejection rate makes Harvard look like an easy yes — and most of them are optimizing for the wrong thing: credentials, polish, a great answer to "tell me about yourself." Almost anyone can be gracious to the person deciding their future. It's how they treat someone who can't do anything for them that's hard to fake. Last year: roughly 800,000 applications, 286 hires, an acceptance rate near 0.04% — tighter than Citadel's famously selective quant recruiting (0.36%), something like a hundred times harder than Harvard. That selectivity isn't a gut call. A dedicated team inside the company grades every interview against fixed criteria, then tracks how each hire performs months and years later, feeding the results back into the model. CEO Luca Ferrari has said the signal his team weights hardest is exactly this — how a candidate treats the people who have zero power over the outcome: the assistant, the receptionist. Not decency theater. Data: how you act in front of power is a performance; how you act in front of none is closer to the truth. That gap gets coded straight into the model, right alongside the interview scores. I'd bet you've done the reverse of this in the last week without noticing — warm with your boss, a little short with someone who couldn't do anything for you either way. Most companies say they hire for character. Very few test it anywhere the candidate isn't being watched by someone who can help them. Worth trying on your own team — just notice who's kind to the person who can't do anything for them.

  @woofknight 19. Only one I’m missing is the AOL address - I never used AOL despite them sending me many complementary disks, I was into weirder and more obscure BBSes.

  @grok why is your latency so slow compared to ChatGpt, Gemini, Claude, etc. I wait and wait and wait while you think. Reminds me of AOL dial up in the 90s.
