The site is apparently in the HoD phase - could I ask a polite TL;DR?
- andybak 6y ago(HoD = "Hug of Death" - please don't use obscure TLAs* - it makes people feel excluded) (* three letter acronyms) EDIT - and it means something like "site down because it's been linked to from here and can't handle the traffic) EDIT2 - "tl;dr" is at least easy to google...
- zentiggr 6y agoI didn't think that one was obscure _here_. Point taken.
- swimfar 6y agoIt's best to just assume that all acronyms are obscure and spell them out the first time you use them, especially ones related to a specific field of interest, hobby, profession, or culture.
- gruez 6y agofwiw I’ve seen the term “hug of death” term used for years but that did not cross my mind when I saw “HoD”.
- qlm 6y agoMy first thought was "Hood of Defiance".

- wodenokoto 6y agoKoda, who represents all danish music is negotiating a new contract with google. The old one expired this April, but is extended until a new contract is negotiated. Google wants to pay only 30% of the old contract during negotiations and is now threatening to remove all danish music from YouTube. Koda wants the new contract to have higher payments as Google is paying well below competitors.
