  • YSK that Apple makes millions of dollars with personalized advertising. If you have an iPhone or iPad, you should turn it off.

  • When that setting gets checked, the IDFA gets set to all zeroes per the developer docs. So it definitely doesn't stop data collection or attempts to target, it just changes that one data point. Instead of an easy "this specific account is associated with this action", you instead get "someone who clicked the opt-out button is associated with this action - you're going to have to target them using other details"

  • Yeah, as a 看得懂汉字的 native English speaker, seeing 族 used to describe both ethnicity and things as mundane as e.g. 开车族 always hits in a weird way. Reading 弱势族群 there would have struck me as the speaker looking down on them. I wouldn't have got the "for good reason", not because it's not literally there, but rather because I probably would have instinctively interpreted the writer as not being sympathetic - something like "all those damn poor people" as if he were to continue on in an ignorant rant about his taxes going to undeserving people on welfare or something. 弱势群体 definitely doesn't have that connotation.

    Anywho, thanks for sharing.

  • Why do some people have so many browser tabs open?

  • I hate the default way most browsers handle tabs. Moved over to this setup years ago and I'm definitely never going back.

    Firefox plus either Sideberry or Tree Style Tabs - both will organize your tabs vertically along the side of the window in a tree format. Follow a link in a new tab, it opens up as a new branch under the current one.

    Pair that with Auto Tab Discard to keep memory usage down, and something like Open Link with New Tab to automatically open links across domains in a new child tab.

    Now I tend to just collapse trees of related tabs and further organize broad related subjects in windows.

  • ... which further strengthens the underlying point that acronyms don't need to be pronounced like the words they represent.

  • Sure, but for consistency you also have to pronounce JPEG as "jay-feg".

  • In addition, none of that money ever leaves the U.S. If $500 billion gets spent supporting Ukraine, that's $500 billion that goes from Congress over to U.S. manufacturers, who create the supplies and then ship those over to Ukraine. The money goes straight back into the U.S. economy. (People can complain about it going mostly to arms manufacturers, but in this particular instance I feel like helping a friendly country protect itself from a hostile invading force is a pretty good use of that money)
