Any ideas how the signal is transmitted once the drone is underwater? Typical RC transmitters run 2.4 GHz. Some systems use 700 MHz. The former wouldn't penetrate at all, the latter might penetrate to a shallow depth, but I think that

That's a good question. If you have many tabs open from the same few websites (depending on what those websites are), maybe just grouping them based on domain names would be enough to provide context. But LLMs are needed if you want th

I actually just submitted something quite relevant - a side project we soft-launched today that uses LLMs to analyse and group browser tabs across various browsers and devices. It turns out that it’s super demanding for today’s models, but

There is a more egregious example of Google abusing its dominance with Google Analytics that people often don’t talk about. With Google Analytics, they offer a free service. Obviously, competitors can’t do that if their business is solely a

Thank you for the thoughtful comment. I do actually agree with many of your points. And you are right, this could be a much longer discussion. Let me just add this - your last sentence doesn’t have to be in past tense. I believe publishers

Sure, there are niche categories that would be hard to get. But for your two specific examples you could use those simple sets of criteria: 1. Target specific articles with advice for older runners in running publications. 2. Target Italia

Sure, it is in the author’s employer best interest for the industry to switch to contextual advertising. But it is also in the best interest of the end user. So why is that a bad thing? I also don’t believe that behavioural advertising is b

There is a very important point made in this article that is unfortunately lost in-between all the other arguments: “Meanwhile, the ability to track users wherever they go tends to shift ad revenue from higher quality sites to less reputabl

Exactly. Which is what drives the biggest advertising machine anyway (Google Search). That model could be replicated for the open internet.

You don’t need targeted advertising to achieve that. You don’t need FB, Google, and a thousand other lesser-known companies tracking every step you make in order to know that you might be interested in cycling. Instead you, as a small adver

I think it’s well defined in the article - the author means behavioural advertising that has to do with targeting any information specific to the user (whether we consider that personal or not). The proposed alternative is contextual adver

How many people do you think there are who are genuinely interested in hearing about opportunities to transfer wealth out of Nigeria for an unknown prince? I bet it is not a very common interest, so Google are not being lazy for not investi

Because Facebook is blocking ads that will probably not be missed by many people. They still allow you to post about blockchain. Mailchimp apparently doesn't.

"They also shouldn’t be burdened with doing due diligence for every ICO to dertermine if they might be aiding and abetting fraud." Legally speaking you are perfectly right - they can do whatever they want. But morally speaking the

I think those are two separate issues: Google has positioned itself to be the lifeline of the open internet and have profited tremendously from it. With that comes a responsibility to not censor content. Otherwise it stops being the "o

When Facebook banned blockchain-related ads it was understandable - they are a closed platform and can chose to accept whatever content they decide to. When Google banned blockchain-related ads it was a much more serious issue - millions of
