Given Epic's premeditated nature of the initial contract break, and subsequent media campaign, I wouldn't rule out this is just the second wave of Epic's persuasion war.

Apple just seems to be an odd foe for the U.S. to fight in this area. I'll get the tin foil.

Seems to be pretty static. But built with react, next.js, webpack, http/2, vanish caching, and some apollo js.

He continues to podcast that way, in the morning. I wouldn't call a pay-to-play audio file, a podcast. A value for value donation structure seems the only way to sustain podcasts.

Ah. JAdamMoore mentioned that it might be Charlottesville related. Can you confirm it's because of Gerald Weinberg's passing?

Oh, I see. Thank you.

For anyone else confused, today is the first anniversary of the Charlottesville incident, where violence occurred between the "Unite the right" group, and a counter protest. A car was also driven into protesters, killing 1.

Today a state of emergency was put in place by the state, to give specific state powers to the police, to keep the peace.

Mine returned Oymyakon, Russia. Nearly 8,000km from my location, or IP address geoloc. I'm assuming it's possibly picking up some hop in between, maybe?

That's actually a grey/black hat way of boosting your ad sales numbers, even if you didn't click.

You buy x at y store, y store has an ad buy with ShadyAdCo. If you see product x in an ad within z time afterwards, it counts as an influence towards your purchase. ShadyAdCo just made money, and y store can give record numbers.

EDIT: typo

Several reasons:

- TV's are generally low framerate, as much as they'd like to claim 240FPS, it's mostly all 30FPS, with software interpolation to increase the frames.

- Bulk. TV's are solid in higher numbers, justifying the lower price

- Distance from face. Your 60" TV can be two smaller panels "glued" together. Not noticeable from watching distance, but having a monitor so close to your face, you're more likely to notice the millisecond tearing.

How has no one mentioned the fact the company is called "SwoleFreaks LLC". My heart sank reading that. Come on, at least try to be professional.

Data breach, or not, the data held within Yahoo's walls is, and will be, incredibly valuable to Verizon. Why do large companies buy smaller ones, only to shutter them? Verizon probably won't shutter Yahoo, but it'll drain the life out of the data. Past and future.

I am interested to see where this goes, though. Merge into the beast, or invest, and (possibly) grow. Although I doubt the latter, it's anyones guess at the moment.
