Yes. Apple's changes have reduced tracking in both modalities but webapps are far more constricted by Safari than native apps.

Yes. Mobile and desktop apps have much more data leakage because they can store more data for longer and have much more APIs to use. A mobile app provides 100x more detailed data with more persistence than a website ever could. This is well

Most people (especially here) would find those emails to be spam and never read them. Is that seriously your suggestion?

It’s done for governmental and judicial issues like not working with terrorist organizations. It’s not accounting for bad advertiser history and related behaviors and connections. The point is that it’s not a resource or scale issue (as you

That makes no sense. It seems you're confused about KYC. It's a screening process that blocks known bad actors (eg: in finance that is anyone convicted of certain crimes, on watchlists, denied by regions or sanctions, etc). Most a

The risk is carefully managed. These malware ads are on the results page and are allowed until enough issues are raised. In other places, like Google's SSP for the rest of the web, there's far more malware because that reputationa

Why would it lock out most advertisers ?

To clarify, I mean political in the sense of business politics and procedures, not legal. More importantly, there is no "right" to advertise nor is Google the only advertising system. The power of advertising (as in buying influen

Adtech veteran here. That's not how the industry works. All ads on major DSPs already require approval before they can run. Advertiser accounts too, especially at scale. While there are plenty of technical openings for fraud and malw

Ad fraud is a political problem, not a technical or resource problem.

You're missing the point. Instead of a law to stop "lower" and "upper" caste from discriminating against each other (like that comment was saying), the entire concept of caste needs to be purged. That won't hap

by manigandham 4y ago
It isn't real. That's the point. It's made up arbitrary classification. Continuing to use it by calling people "lower-caste" is how it persists. You're not describing reality since there is no such thing as a &

What is a lower-caste person? Your other comments argue that people are being dismissive yet you're using the very language that furthers caste segregation.

And again, it's all subjective. I suspect most people in the "real world" (whatever that means) do not actually find it fun, hence the vast majority of professional writing in other industries not having any emojis. Lack of e

Also the incredibly annoying use of emojis everywhere turning every document into a children's book.

They would be knockoffs if they claimed to be exactly the same as the original. What's illegal about buying modified items?

You're missing the point. Their scale (in number of records and queries) is a better fit for provisioned capacity than pay-as-you-go in the context of billing. The exact small/large label doesn't matter, nor does the requests

by manigandham 4y ago
Your usage seems to be in the "large" customer category where provisioned capacity is a better deal. Algolia does have volume discounts if you talk to them, but yes the other alternatives might be a better fit.
54.
by manigandham 4y ago
Why do the number of records and searches have to be similar? The current pricing is simple - you pay per "search unit" which scales in both dimensions. The vast majority of small/medium customers would rather pay-as-you-go t

Congrats to the team, it's been interesting to watch the development of Meilisearch (and it's close competitor Typesense). Algolia has really paved the way here but it's nice to see the open-source options with more configura

The problem comes down to how quickly configuration data can be pushed to the edge and modern CDNs like Cloudflare and Fastly respond to changes within seconds, or even milliseconds.

How does DNS give you more control than BGP? One is an actual routing system that tells routers where to send data, the other is a name translation system with multiple layers of caches outside of your control. DNS is a layer above as BGP i

There are multiple torrent/download services like Put.io that make it much easier and more useful. Regardless of streaming service subscriptions, nothing beats raw files for high-fidelity playback without buffering and instant replay&#

Online bill pay (initiated on your end) is usually just paper checks and occasionally ACH transfers, both of which take time and are annoying to deal with, so of course they don’t like it.

Visa and Mastercard are payment networks, not banks. They don’t own the debt at all.
