Doesn't Adblock Plus permit google ads by default hence the need for Adblock Edge https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-edge/ https://addons.mo

  Yes-which is a shame. I think that Google has violated the acceptable ad policy and should be removed. Here's an article from when the change was made to Adblock Plus http://gizmodo.com/google-supposedly-paid-off-adblock-plus-to-not-block-go-682029020 http://gizmodo.com/google-supposedly-paid-off-adblock-plus-t...

    Sorry to be that guy, but your use of the hyphon ”-” makes it hard to read your post. A hyphon with no spaces around it joins the two or more words into a single concept. A man-child is a single entity. In your usage here and above, all you need is a space on either side. A "yes-which" first parsed as a typo of "yes-witch", which I supposed would be a witch who agrees a lot. On the other hand, "Yes - which..." Now it is easily parsable as a transition. :)

      The hyphen-with-spaces is a poor substitute for an em dash (— -- if HN supported HTML entities). Where emdashes are non-operational, I prefer a pair of hyphens surrounded by spaces -- which at least looks more like an em dash. Your comment is meta, but not inappropriate or abrasive. Civil commentary regarding common misusage has value, and I hope your comment will emerge from the grey.
