that's both unreasonable and not the right way to approach this. Your assumption is that if you knew the names of all possible processes that you could then be in a position to make better decisions. the problem is names are useless - it's trivial for software to run under different names, so believing names can help you somehow is a waste of time.

been fully remote since 2008. It was fun to watch everyone else learn how to do that :)

Gaiman's narrations are fantastic. Add Neverwhere to the list above!

sorta. what is at issue here is that the actions in question are after he held the office. that isn't a trivial difference.

lemmy may have growth pains, but I don't expect reddit exit to be a crash more than a slow burn.

can't tell if that's flippant or just uninformed. Reddit data was a significant component of the development of most big name LLMs.

Brand safety as an idea isn't dangerous, and there's an entire sub-industry in the adTech space devoted to it. The bottom line is most companies don't want their ads showing up on sites or in close proximity to certain types of content (illegal, political, hate speech, etc.). Services from these companies are used to make sure when doing ads on the open web, your DSP doesn't inadvertently put your ads in places like that. One example: https://integralads.com/solutions/brand-safety-suitability/

I think what he meant was that means they're buying ads, not selling them.

I get your point, but keeping it in the news and dialog outside of reddit is also good, and that is more likely to happen due to things going on inside of it.

good grief i hope not. Email & captcha are reasonable; a short form essay on why you should be graced with the ability to participate is super cringe.

stupid is as stupid does.

 

Reddit is redirecting some impressions away from existing communities, and some advertisers are pausing campaigns.
