One issue I've noticed on occasion is that Ad blockers can silently break websites, and the users don't know what's going on. This is a reason it would be better to reduce ad blocking and encourage websites to follow acceptable ad guidelines instead (though I work for a company that earns most of its revenue from advertising).
From the comments:

> Dustin Moris Gorski

> Yeah I understand your frustration. I think there are two separate issues. Your issue is that you follow all rules of EasyList and still get blocked, which is wrong. The second issue is the general issue that most consumers don't care how carefully ads have been selected. It still is an ad and we don't like any ads :)
You can feed your goats 100 dollar bills and increase your goat production, but this plan have some gaps.

What the article forgets to mention is that seaweed is a product valued in millions of dollars. And they create fragile ecosystems also that support a lot of juvenile fish, octopus and shellfish; wich are also expensive products. The delicious sea urchins depend entirely of seaweeds for example. On the other side, Asparagopsis taxiformis is an australian invasive species; so the idea of harvest it cuts both ways. Could be good (erradicate) or a big mistake (propagate even more).

And you need to develop a selective extracion method. If you use all seaweeds to feed cattle, inland cows will have a fartastic life, but a lot of fishermen living in small coastal villages with poor soils will lost their jobs.

Or maybe to synthetize the seaweed metabolites. Its life cycle is complicated. They are two different algae packed in one single species (Asparagopsis taxiformis and Falkenbergia hillebrandii). This is a problem if we want to culture it. We'll need to understand the delicate interactions and chemistry of the poisons of this plants and grant that no bad collateral effects will appear; i.e. Kill the intestinal flora that the cattle needs. Do you want to know another thing that could emit lots of metane? microscopic algae blooming after macroscopic algae vanished (and maybe a bunch of dead macroscopic algae drying at the sun?).

There have been a few articles like this, I presume we have PR folk shopping us around to journos.

In some ways, the "gee whiz" and "look how quirky!" stuff is highlighted because it's a novelty. That's how you get press: you do something different in a way that can be understood by others. Cutting through to the essence of anything takes time and practice, which a reporter doesn't have.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: if you want me to consume ads, give me ads I want to consume.

I'm terrible in visuals. I rather provide the raw content and someone else makes it beautiful.

For a team page that's pictures of the team and their roles.

For a product it is pictures from my product designer. Or specs that might be put in a nice looking table.

For user scenarios it is photos again, but with a caption. And yes, if I do it myself that caption will look ugly.

So text templates are super useful to me. I'm also much better in using icons than designing them. :-)

I used Wordpress 10 years ago. Then I used it again last year. I was shocked that it is still as unreliable as ever. I consider myself lucky if plugins only stop working after an update. Sometimes they break the whole website.

I made the mistake to build my theme on top of the popular Origin theme. That one breaks or changes such it breaks my theme all the time. Over time I adapted my code similar to your guidelines to make it more resilient against other changes.
The guy is mad because he has a one-line, textual "sponsorship" banner that's very tasteful and understated, and because EasyList is blocking it with a rule targeted specifically at his site.

As an EasyList user, I personally feel that EasyList is being a bit obnoxious here.

Getting a good accuracy score sounds really hard to do, but if done it would be super valuable. Right now there's no economic incentive for accuracy. All news outlets, old big ones and new small ones, draw in eyeballs to advertise to using drama and controversy, not accuracy.

No, I'm pretty sure I'm thinking of RB-338, and definitely not a modded one; I had access to a 303 back in the day for a few weeks and it could have been that, but it was definitely standard. My friend I mentioned before has a number of 303s, both standard and modded, and showed me some of the extreme settings he gets on them (everything he makes is properly extreme!), but I don't know 100% that RB-338 wasn't more extreme than standard.
That's a false dilemma.

A sponsorship message is an advert. Easylist is working as intended. The "acceptable ads" program is an entirely separate whitelist and it makes no difference if the advert meets those criteria.
It's still an ad. Calling it a sponsorship doesn't change that.

Granted, it's an unobtrusive ad (at best), but it has every reason to be filtered out by a gosh-darn ad-blocker.
I run a 16 person 5 timezone startup cofounded in the valley. I moved to asia from SF. The best thing about this is lack of "startup-y things". All of those things are huge distractions to getting things done.

Many companies run remote fine. Schedules allow people to be home with their kids when needed, no commute over head for most. Emphasis is on self management. Communication is async. We have 1 stand up a week.
I don't see where in the article the "absence is noted". I come in late each Friday because of a regular appointment. I tell my colleagues that I will be in late because it seems like the courteous thing to do.

We're not a scrum shop. XP with Lean trimmings. Which we constantly tinker with.

In the long run, the process is built on co-location and pairing. Of these, we'll take pairing. Which only really works if everyone is present at the same time: if you create and dissolve pairs as the number of engineers fluctuates, then you create a really confusing fan-out/fan-in effect on the work in flight.

I worked on a project where were spread across two timezones, which simulated people coming at different times. We'd be 2 pairs, 4 pairs, then 2 pairs. It was a carwreck.
I think that was the point? :)

It's some of the most subversively existential SF I've ever read.
There may be less poor people in college, but it can be easier for poor people to pay. There is sort of this no man's land where a person (or their family) makes just too much for assistance, but not really enough to pay. My family fell into this area while in college, and I worked 20-30 hours/week on top of a normal 12-15 hour course load. To make up when I took 12 hours, I also went to both summer sessions each year. It was a long 4 years as I had maybe 3-4 weeks out of school each year, and zero time out of work.

I think it's only a matter of time before Google starts fighting back and asks ad blockers to allow AMP ads or face being kicked from the Chrome extensions store. AMP ads are relatively lightweight, built from a short list of approved components, and signed by a validation service, so all the usual arguments about why people are blocking ads go out the window. And Google certainly is in a position where they can start demanding a change like this.

You're crossing a line when you decide which propaganda is censored.
The arguments shift, a few years back there was very widespread denial that the climate was changing. Following repeated record years now there is a reasonable consensus that the climate is changing (up to about 60% of conservatives in the US and UK), and people now seem to think this acceptance was always there. The next argument as you say is whether it is manmade, after that it will be about whether it is serious enough to need tackling, or about whether it's so serious that nothing can be done. Underlying this is the basic worry to avoid damaging quality of life (which is a perfectly reasonable concern) and the ideological motivation to avoid intervening in the economy. Beyond the motivated reasoning there is also the actual scientific argument about whether the climate sensitivity is 1C, or 2.5C, and whether therefore we should be taking moderate action or severe action. There's not much of a scientific debate about whether we should be doing nothing at all. Ironically in the Anglosphere there is a consensus for moderate action amongst the public, including the conservative public, but the political elites haven't yet caught up.

NVIDIA had about 5 different generations of Tegra before the K1 [1]. The A15-based K1 (T124) came before the Denver-based K1 (T132) AFAIK. Both are very nice and a clear improvement over the previous generations. Denver is a bit inconsistent in its performance, but on average it dominates A15s and A57s. Nexus 9, however, has very poor thermal design and can only dissipate a small fraction of the heat output of the T132.

There are some tasks where soloing is unambiguously better (reading docs springs to mind) or where pairing confers very little advantage (writing a large draft).

Lots of people don't like the idea of pairing by default.

I was skeptical about its utility, except as a way to learn.

But these days I find that I don't want to solo if I can help it. On days when I'm soloing I have to use more ritalin to manage my ADHD than on days when I'm pairing.

I've been singing that song for a while... Overzealous adblocking may cost us dearly when it succeeds to cut off all revenue streams for quality content except subscriptions.

I know HN takes a pretty critical view of "mainstream media", but I believe a world in which NYT/Wired/WSJ and similar have been successfully run out of business will be a very different one. They are among the last to have the resources to devote teams to investigate issues. There's nobody capable of replacing them.

I with there were an Adblocker that takes this responsibility serious, blocking maybe video and ads over content, but not static images and text ads.

For the commentator saying that "most consumers don't care how carefully ads have been selected. It still is an ad and we don't like any ads :)" I can only answer that problem started when you called yourself a "consumer". We need more citizen, less consumers.

A very similar thing happened to me on my first payment processing system. Thankfully it maxed out at 3 tries then sent a final email that the account was suspended until the payment method was updated. The paypal portion worked as expected... they have better devs than I ever will be, but the Authorize.Net portion would fail out within 3 hours.

The bug was simple to fix, the production database's schema failed to update in the deployment. Once we figured that out it was 10 minutes to rerun the deploy script.
That could easily backfire and push people to other browsers.
> give me ads I want to consume.

Going by your argument, a one-line black-on-beige text message saying "Sponsored by: $COMPANY_NAMES" is "crap".

But even scientific papers often have lines saying "Sponsored by NSF grant #1234." PBS children's TV has a voice that says, "Sesame Street was sponsored by $COMPANY." And I have at least one or two GitHub repos containing a note in the README that says, "This work was sponsored by $CLIENT_NAME". To me, saying who's paying for work is as much a matter of giving proper credit and fully disclosing where the money is coming from.

Personally, as an EasyList user, I'm a bit surprised that EasyList has a site-specific rule to block this particular "Sponsored by" message.
Can't help but feel that this sudden 'fake news' push seems more like a movement to enforce mainstream media control versus alternative/grassroots in light of the recent U.S. election, rather than any actual concern.

After all, the CNN, Huffington et al. had their own share of misrepresentation and outright lies[1] - but will those be targeted by this new effort?

No they're not. Often they're absolutely wrong.

> if you want me to consume ads, give me ads I want to consume.

The sponsorhip message on Troy's site is unobtrusive (it appears once at the top of the page, text only), and doesn't track you. It's relevant to the audience of his site (sponsors are curated by Troy). They're the best case for good ads on the web. If all sites did ads like this, I'd uninstall my adblocker immediately.
One of the usual arguments about why people adblock is tracking. These people don't use Chrome anyway.

I think it's perfectly legitimate for ad blockers to block even tasteful sponsorship notices.

That said, his sponsorship notice is really good, in just about every possible way it could be. Just a text link with the name and motto of the business, overlaid on the hero image in muted colors. It reminds me of NPR sponsorship messages. Given a reasonable way of recognizing this kind of sponsorship message, I'd unblock them generally.
>so all the usual arguments about why people are blocking ads go out the window

The only argument you need is that you don't want to see things you don't want to see. I have control over what is shown on my browser by my computer, as I choose what software I run. So no, the usual arguments don't go out of the window. I'm not happy with any advertisements and it's strange that people assume I would be if they are "non-intrusive" or whatever. I simply do not care for them.
I don't agree with that characterisation, which gives a Taylorist vibe.
