> If I'm not the customer, then I'm the product.

This isn't always true, so it's best to look at it on a case by case basis. One wouldn't suggest that Typescript coders are a product of MS.

So far, they don't seem to be treating vscode users like the product. I think they're are building out great free tooling to entice users to use their other paid services like Azure.


Wow, I didn't know you could use Spotlight to do calculations! Thank you!

For anyone on macOS who doesn't know, hit command + spacebar.


> feeling all giddy when you get a "reward" later means you've been gamed.

It doesn't really feel that way as you're flying to Hawaii for free.


You're not flying to Hawaii for free. Every single purchase you made with the card was more expensive than it had to be, because the merchants needed to cover their credit card fees.

What you're doing is the equivalent of always paying with bills, and dropping your spare change in a jar. And when the jar is full, you buy a ticket to Hawaii with the money in it. Except with a credit card, they keep the jar, take half the quarters, give you back the rest, and make you feel grateful for the entire experience.


It doesn't really feel that way as you're flying to Hawaii for free.

There is no free lunch.


In this particular case all of the people without premium cards who pay with cash or debit cards with no rewards are paying for our free lunch and flight to Hawaii. It's a tax on basically every transaction, paid to those participating in the rewards scheme

The lunch is not free. You're buying it for us.

It's okay to read articles that you don't completely agree with.


They are actually automatically archiving unsubscribed emails to keep free users under the limit.

> You can remain a free user so long as you have 2,000 or fewer contacts in your audience, and you’ll now have the new free plan features. If the new way of counting contacts causes your audience to exceed 2,000 contacts before June 15, 2019, we’ll automatically archive your unsubscribed and transactional contacts. After June 15, we’ll begin calculating your audience as described in Section 7B of our TOU, but you can always manually archive contacts to keep your audience under 2,000 contacts.


I got this email from them today:

> If you are a current free user You can remain a free user so long as you have 2,000 or fewer contacts in your audience, and you’ll now have the new free plan features. If the new way of counting contacts causes your audience to exceed 2,000 contacts before June 15, 2019, we’ll automatically archive your unsubscribed and transactional contacts. After June 15, we’ll begin calculating your audience as described in Section 7B of our TOU, but you can always manually archive contacts to keep your audience under 2,000 contacts.

So it sounds like they are actually automatically archiving unsubscribed emails if it puts you over the limit.


OK, that wasn't in the original "Exciting updates coming to your Mailchimp account" email. That appears to be from today in the "Updates to your Mailchimp account" email from Mailteam Legal. I'm guessing someone from legal saw that original email and puckered a bit, and drafted this clarification.
