So you just follow random links people send you? That seems like a horrible waste of your most precious commodity. YouTube offers a way to pay for an ad free experience. Are you a paying member?

Ad blockers aren't a problem for advertisers since people using ad blockers likely aren't going to click on your ads anyhow. They are a problem for content creators.

Content creators have gone with not blocking blockers up until now because it's not an issue. As it becomes more of an issue you start seeing more and more anti-blocking scripts. Once or twice in all your years online you have agreed

They are paying the content providers who are paying you in content. They are free to take "counter measures". But that doesn't stop the fact that they are paying for both your time and the content.

It's not like the ads just appear while you're sitting around doing nothing. You see the ads when you are receiving something with them. The ad companies are paying for your attention with the content you consume.

"The men who ran the Mega sites passed around customers' e-mails with reactions, complaints, and compliments, many of them mentioning obviously copyrighted content. For instance, in May 2009, Batato sent an e-mail to Ortmann with

I guess with everything it's a trade off. I get a lot more functionality than a standard watch but the trade off is once a day I need to stick it on the charger for a few minutes.

Why do you need so long on a single charge? Even on my non-smart watches I take them off at some point during the day(those ones normally for sleep). With my Apple watch I take it off in the morning while I get ready and stick it to the ch

Kim is someone I really don't like and I have to admit I get a certain amount of pleasure in seeing him fail but I am really not happy with this whole case. Mostly because I don't want to see people being extradited over IP crime

CLTV is over a year old at this point. Segwit doesn't look like it's going to reach consensus anytime soon which means lightning implementations are doa. Compact blocks are definitely an improvement for the network though.

I am looking to hiring a jr ruby or elixir developer in the next few months that doesn't mind cross training on the job. They will probably be remote since I live in a small surfing town half way up the Australian coast at the moment.

Blockchain is probably in need of a round soon so it's possible they are looking to stack the board to increase the likelihood of them actually raising one. I doubt DCG has much more in the tank to keep leading every bitcoin round.

If you look at archives of USENET from those time periods plenty of people had ads in their signatures for example and even if you don't count that the first spam message was sent in 1978 so that whole time period is post internet ads.
