How many programmers don't have some form of adblock in their browsers?
- jrockway 17y agoJudging by many of the questions on SO, I'm surprised the people asking them can even manage to use a web browser with the default settings. If someone ran a malware-ad campaign on SO, I'm sure a significant number of people would be infected.
- jasonkester 17y agoConsidering how often I rebuild my dev machines, I couldn't imagine tracking down all these obscure plugins every time I built a box. Firefox gets installed, along with Firebug and the AWS plugins, then sits idle in the taskbar until I need to use it for testing something. I'm actually surprised by how many programmers DO have adblock.
- Sukotto 17y agoSome of us automate our installs. Check out the FEBE and OPIE plugins for firefox. Host the archives someplace (dropbox works well) and write a little install script and you're done. Installing stuff by hand is so last century...
- RyanMcGreal 17y agoI'm actually surprised by how many programmers still install stuff. :)
