Lobster on a roll = lobster roll. Fried clams on a roll = clam roll. Not “lobster sandwich“. Not “clam sandwich“. Hamburger patty between two slices of bread, original name = hamburger sandwich. Hot dog on a roll = hot dog roll. Not a sandwich.

Two security researchers shipped me a pink plastic kid's smartwatch from Amazon. When I wore it, they tracked my movements, surreptitiously took photos of me, even listened to my conversations. The same backend they hacked is used by 30+ watch brands for kids. 🧵👇 www.wired.com/story/hacker...

War takes anyone it can find. It takes the reluctant, the frightened, the placid, the tired, the zealot, the fifth child and the only son. But it only ever takes the brave: those who found no excuse, showed up, didn't run, followed their buddy. It doesn't matter why you went, it’s that you went.
