It’s more like drugs in that they will be less effective , but not completely, so we will continue to get more exposures as advertisers compete for attention

I'm no prude, but I'm finding horror, pharma & sex ads to be incredibly disturbing in how they are presented. Google TV takes over my wall with moderately graphic horror movie ads. My family members aren't comfortable w

revenues don't reveal anything because they are the sum of thousands of noisy vectors. that's why surveys, reviews, customer studies, NPS etc are all done to try to figure out retention.

netflix ads tier was very usable for the first month, then the ads became suffocating. all the other ads tiers are pretty painful. but none are as bad as broadcast TV. I don't watch streaming a lot, and the Ads tiers are a great way t

i agree with the high level (budget, corner cutting), but I'm curious about deliberate decisions to build things so awfully. some of these decisions take more work to do wrong than right (android keeps activities resident, for example

i have to admit it worked for me. I recently rewatched madmen, but replayed the HBO distribution to see the 4k improvements. it's much more vibrant

Such a great reputation over the decades . It felt good to have something USA made in the build . What a shame.

Seems to have been a deliberate incident, just look at all of the free PR on social media from this “accident” . Has HBOMax ever been on Hackernews except for bad naming ? Their app isn’t otherwise noteworthy

I would mostly agree , with the caveat that there are more unstated outcomes and they matter as much as the agenda

Coderberg is nice , but their P80s are terrible. And they are hosted in Germany, which adds a few seconds to every remote command . I wouldn’t move business critical repos there . Everyone loses their mind when GitHub goes down once every 2
