At my job we write everything in english. Code comments, variable names, review comments. Everything. It’s just to make everything readable to people who don’t know our language because some people in the office are from other countries.

One season per book seems to be what usually works best. That’s why I think a Harry potter tv show of 7 seasons would be cool

Since you are moving to Denmark: flee! Take a car and drive north to seek refuge in Sweden. Once you make it there you are safe, but you never know, the Danes could invade any minute. Keep driving north until you start seeing reindeer walking around like they own the place. Move into a cabin in the woods and never look back. The Danes can’t reach you there.

Pursuing sculpting when you dont like sculpting seems like a bad idea. Is there even a lot of jobs in sculpting?

I guess so, but sponsors are easier to skip since that are always the same length. If the ad changes length you cant use the time stamps to skip it automatically

No that’s not it. As I mentioned in the post, these ads change based on my location. They are absolutely not added by the people making the podcast because they are not even in the same language as the rest of the podcast.

As far as I can tell it depends on the podcast. Some have ads in every episode and some never have any

Thank you for the explanation. Kinda sucks that a premium service like Spotify doesn’t even host their own content, but that’s capitalism I guess.

Sure they decide that the ad should exist, but how? When I see a mid-roll ad on YouTube for example it was put there by the person who uploaded the video but the content of the ad is delivered by youtube. Who is delivering the content of these ads?

Thanks, that’s good to know! Although this seems to be more related to sponsors. Like the podcast host doing an ad-read. I don’t mind them as much because then at least the creators of the podcast are getting all the money and the ad is not tracking me to figure out what ad to serve me. What I am referring to is more like a regular ad that you would hear on the radio that has been stitched on to the beginning of the episode.

Oh absolutely. I understand that. But is Spotify even the one who is adding/profiting from the ads? I seems like this is coming from someone else since the ads are also on AntennaPod

I get that. But is Spotify using the same third party server then? Because the ads are always the same regardless of platform

This is actually really interesting and I think about it every time I look in a large mirror. IIRC it is because the mirror is always “halfway” between you and your mirror image. So as you step back your mirror image gets further away and looks smaller, but so does the mirror.

Complex? Possibly. Durable? Hell no.

This happened to my Surface pro 4 with both Windows and Linux. Could be a hardware issue.

Could the open-sourcing of the other drive apps lead to an unofficial Linux app?

This is so strange to me. I hear stories like this all the time but I have hard time understanding who would not show up or not eat the food that was obviously for the party.

Did they know there would be food beforehand? Could they have eaten before because they thought there wouldn’t be anything at the party? What about the other 2 people? Did they tell you they were not coming or did they say they were coming and then just didn’t show up? Did they say why they didn’t show up?

What is misleading about this? This is clearly just a personal opinion. Just because you don’t agree doesn’t mean it is misleading.

Oh no men are calling out sexism, how terrible
