I run a company where about 70% of my audience (in 2018 no less, so likely a lot higher now) use adblockers. To me, any amount of search ad spend or similar is pissing money down the drain. For reference, our marketing strategy is opt-in em

Without too much detail due to contracts/NDA/etc, slipping a release date is even worse of a bother for others down-chain also. There are planned times for manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, all that fun stuff for the physi

Huh. I did the exact same job for a competing park, owned by a fair, and we got paid from when we showed up to the main office to when we ended at the main office. The only unpaid time was the walk to/from the very back of the parking

The proposed API, MRB_API, is used in mruby. With enough popular support for that C API, it could force mainline ruby to modernize it's C API to that one. Assuming MRB_API thread-safe-able. mruby is not thread safe at all, being a sing
