People have always woken up at 3-4am, particularly after 30.

It used to be custom that people got out of bed and had tea.

You're just getting old.

They gained 500k subs.

They are saying they are going to lose customers because of the crack down on password sharing which they say is 100m subscribers and introduce advertising.

Look:

Boss Reed Hastings said Netflix was looking at launching a free ad-supported service like its rivals Disney and HBO.

Analysts say it could open a significant new revenue stream for the company, which has so far shunned advertising.

I'm not rebutting your argument but I recall two additional maxims

Content is not King

Andrew Odlyzko (2000) - AT&T Labs - Research

which advised me to build infrastructure and not make videos - my fortune via YT lost :)

and

Joel Spolsky's advice in June 2002

Smart companies try to commoditize their products’ complements.

meaning if you make infrastructure - give away the content and make it worthless

So it is interesting that Google followed this advice

Netflix streams from Amazon AWS for their service

So it is only their catalogue which is losing value over time.

I've not gone through their accounts but I expect that cost has been re-couped (I might be wrong).

As for Amazon

  • $31.16 billion in advertising revenue from sellers on its platform
  • $62.2 billion in revenue from AWS but was also expensive to run, generating $18.5 billion in contributions but still a healthy 29.7% gross margin

Except people are not leaving Netflix, they gained 500k new signups.

They forced 700k Russian users off the service.

Hence 200k net loss.

but you're not posting this as slippery slope, you're posting this as rage porn

It's from a rage porn thread on twitter and I've seen the other threads under this image have zero critical thinking and people coming at me for quoting the full text!

It says considerably more than your headline, even in just this single sentence:

Interpretation: In ambulatory patients with heart failure, a dietary intervention to reduce sodium intake did not reduce clinical events.

It means "those who have had heart failure and can still walk see no improvement in outcome by now adopting a low sodium diet"

shame people cannot read beyond the headlines tho'

the paper does not present the conclusion inferred by the headline

the subjects in the study were those already hospitalised by heart disease

that's not what the paper says

the subjects are people already hospitalised with heart disease, and the conclusion is that reducing sodium intake in those people had little to no effect

what you've noticed is that some people speak of their allegiance to those things

however, you have not counted all the people who do not

We like data, so If you can present some, that would be smashing

700k lost, 500k gained = 200k lost

the share price drop is because they didn't meet their own forecasts :

  • Revenue $7.87B, missing est. $7.95B
  • EPS $3.53, beating est. $2.91
  • Streaming Paid Memberships 221.64M, missing the est. 224.5M
  • Netflix 1Q Streaming Paid Net Change -200,000, huge miss to the est. +2.5M

This last one is the headline subs loss
