Actually, if I did a series of articles on (non-secret parts of) Xanadu internals, would anybody care? Not just transcopyright – I’ve got detailed knowledge on how ZZOGL / FloatingWord did layout, for instance. I think I can explain these things in a clearer way than Ted does, in some cases.
I should probably implement an example version of transcopyright for my repo of ‘important data structures, algorithms, & ideas that have no easily-understood isolated example implementations’ (https://github.com/enkiv2/misc/tree/master/ds-lib) since it’s already mostly xanadu shit

People who have been to Japan: what kind of food (if any) is served in/around japanese video arcades? Does american arcade fare like curly fries or nachos exist? Is it japanese-style junk food like takoyaki? One-handed/clean stuff like stuffed mochi, rice balls, meat buns, stuffed bread?
It’s not unusual that John MacAffee is planning to run for president. It’s sort of unusual that we now have precedent for joke candidates actually winning. Imagine President MacAffee. Imagine him filling the oval office with literal piles of cocaine.

Hot take: the endgame of any company is 90s Microsoft or death. If Microsoft had not bought Github, Github would have become Microsoft, because it has a profit motive.

Basically, if the antagonist of your story is actually a person or something person-like, it’s not really cyberpunk, because it’s not about the things cyberpunk is about. If you have an evil government or an evil corporation, it’s not cyberpunk either.
TBH there is nothing more cyberpunk than a world where actual politically-relevant cyberpunk literature is forgotten while shitty shallow corporatized versions with awful politics are blockbusters.
Days after jokingly asking when someone will do an american live action adaptation of Kite, I find that Anchor Bay already has.
