@slashdot I feel like this is a bit of a common pattern? Company builds an awesome product, makes it free for a lot of users, then create additional features and paid plans, makes a tonne of money. But then later decide they need to make more money, so focus on converting the free users to paid users. Hmmm 🤔 Surely this can't be the only viable business model? 🤔

@movq @prologic Oh nice! It continued a bit, too. But it didn't remain on the ground. I didn't leave the house, but I reckon I'll enjoy it tomorrow. Currently it's raining, like most of the day.

Interesting thing happening over on Xitter. Apparently some of the women in tech accounts are being exposed as being run by men that hire women to pose for images/videos. They would be invited to tech conferences but would always drop out last minute.
Makes me wonder if maybe there is need for a sort of verifiable web of trust is needed where influencers can be proven as authentic by others. This will only get worse as AI generative content gets pushed into our feeds.

That last story he tells there (about the masked interrupts), that’s what fascinates me about computing. 😍 You’re close to the machine and you’re dealing with interesting problems. I find this way more intriguing than all the “modern” hyped stuff like “““AI”””.

That sounds like a plausible explanation to me. (Then again, I have little insight into how “making money on YouTube” works. 😅)
Like @lyse, I skip these sections immediately, unless it’s just one or two sentences. If it’s too long, I might just close the tab right away. 🤷

It need to be a proper link to the domain. And mention is linking to a profile page on the pod, so it doesn't validate.

@darch But this is what I'm confused about. Why would my Twt contains a reference to `http://darch.dk/social` instead of `http://darch.dk/twtxt.txt` -- which the later is what I `@-mentioned`? 🤔

Yarns does not generate a link back to the site that is being mentioned (eg. `<a href="http://darch.dk/social">look here</a>`) which is needed for validating that it is indeed a real webmention, ant not just spam. Try rereading the specs😉

See, even a video I was just watching on Youtube just now, the guy said:
> THanks for Surf Shark for sponsoring this video, it keeps the content free.
So that basically tells me that Google™ advertising on Youtube™ is utter bullshit. I have a funny feeling they're (Google™'s) crack-down on ad-blocker is just an internal reaction to a losing battle with their ad revenue streams in the declins from their ad business.
----
As an aside @movq and I were yarning about this before... The reason this form of advertising works so well is "brand awareness". There's some interesting content, and you don't mind that the guy or gal is sponsored by some company and they happen to make mention of it and even go into a special part of their video (_without being annoying about it_). You don't even fast forward or anything because you already like their voice, and they're not being completely obnoxious about what they're promoting, and what they're promoting isn't complete garbage, malware or worse.

@darch I needn an example of where this breaks down I think. Do you happen to have one? 🤔 By all rights, looking at the code paths, the issue raised really doesn't make sense to me. The Source is the Twt permalink on the source pod that contains an `@-mention` of the target's Twtxt feed. So that should validate just fine hmm 🤔

@prologic I don’t have a clue if they work or not. 😅 There are probably studies, but I’m too lazy to search now. 🤣
I, myself, don’t remember even having clicked on one of those banners and then proceeded to actually buy something. But what certainly *does* work on me is the effect of hearing/seeing a certain brand over and over again. “Oh, that’s a Logitech mouse, I know that manufacturer.” Stuff like that.
