One problem for me is opening more interesting links than I have time to get to. Bookmarks don't really solve the core problem of not properly managing my time. When I used to use RSS, I would have many feeds racking up…
Generally images in emails are linked, and not actually sent with the email. So any time the email is opened, the email client makes a request to the image host, and this request can contain a unique identifier for the…
There are certainly companies doing this already. The only advantage of a tracking pixel is if your email content doesn't have any images already. And I guess it sounds scarier for a headline.
I'm curious how they're doing it. Without having used their product, I gather that they're blocking certain known trackers and/or checking for tracking pixels directly. But it's not hard to put a unique tracking link on…
Gmail can do their own tracking on what emails a user opens. If they find that a user is leaving a lot of mail from a domain unread, they might decide to start shifting that mail into the spam box to provide a better…
They don't, but they also don't share that information with the sender. Gmail wants senders to be proactive and auto-unsubscribe disengaged recipients, which requires tracking open/click rates.
And on top of that, some mail providers like Gmail won't even tell you this is happening. I understand why they don't but it's really difficult if you're a small time newsletter trying to get off the ground.
Tracking pixels are the closest we have to determining whether somebody opens (& hopefully reads) the email. Click rate is the next best thing but unless you are an incredible marketer it will be far below open rate,…
He doesn't have a Wikipedia page, but Cleveland Blakemore certainly fits the Usenet gamedev troll profile.
It's just a censor.
They're referring to the number of times to subtract 35 from 350. Do it 10 times and you end up with 0, there is nothing more to divide and so 10 is the answer.
Your point on time limits reminds me of XCOM 2, where Firaxis added turn limits to most missions to combat this same problem. They ended up doubling back a bit in the expansion by adding more untimed missions and a…
Reminds me of: "No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame."
While that was my first thought on reading the headline, consider this scenario: Man makes a drug to help people in pain. Turns out this comes with some nasty side effects. Feeling guilty, he works on a way to help undo…
It amazes me how difficult it is (relative to the drink complexity) to order a regular black coffee at a Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts.
Yes, digraphs involving z are quite common in Polish so it's not as bad as it looks. Still, English would never have a string of them like "szcz" ("shch" in English orthography).
They still teach Animal Farm. Remember: Russians are Bad.
I'd rather be a replacable cog than a crucial lynchpin. I prefer to look at my job in the same way. It's much less stressful that way.
Same thing. The time is the investment. There are always projects with better RoI so a rewrite is constantly at the bottom of the pile. "We'll get to it someday."
I tend to do the same, picking at uneven feeling bits. What sucks is how it turns into a vicious cycle. If I can somehow keep away long enough for the skin to heal, I can usually stop. Until I find another spot.
It always surprises me to hear that people enjoy carbonated water. Different strokes. The only way I can stand carbonation is with some flavor. Tap water is just fine to me.
Alternatively: the study was about "low carb", while keto is "extremely low carb".
It's possible to control for these factors by adjusting your expected outcomes accordingly. Not saying they did since I haven't bothered to read the study though.
Trousers as well. Kept losing my phone until I got a case.
Isn't the fact that it needed hard work an indication that the statement is useful for the average person?
