depot··on A downtick is coming for online advertising
Maybe I'm just a dumb hermit, but still, I frequently think: Is there real proof the marketing is worth the extra effort? Adblock is very popular. Most people seem to want the same things their friends get. Seems like the best place to get control is the influencers. But yes, I'm out of touch. I don't understand SEO much, but the result of that seems much more valuable. I think there was an article like this recently.
depot··on Ask HN: Whatever happened to exploring the internet?
How could I start to do this? HN sometimes has interesting blogs but I don't get caught in a sustained loop of interesting things. That sounds nice. I'd want to join.
depot··on Fuck the Bread. The Bread Is Over (2020)
"In February, as a plague enters America, I am a finalist for a job I am not offered."

I learned English first (American), but I don't understand grammar well enough to explain what language rules were broken. I hate when ESL friends ask about this. In Chinese they don't really modify the verb words, they just add other words. Does anyone ever break rules in Spanish for poetry? I don't know.

This author uses present tenses to talk about the past. Is it hopeless or deterministic? I'm curious.

depot··on BYOT: Bring your own team
Don't you think they'd separate if they failed? Or is separating the same as failing?

If I had a team I'd want to keep it together but not so much if it doesn't actually work.
