A short parody video released by Wyze in response to Ring’s Super Bowl commercial about using connected cameras to locate lost dogs (only lost dogs wink wink)

To your point I think they just might be. I just had one of these built in my city and a quick look makes it appear to be backed by the big automakers.

They also have NACS chargers too

Is there a deaths related to social media, search engines, or newspapers wiki page?

If you haven’t done a search in awhile on Bing it’s also very horrible. In many search’s there are only 1 or 2 organic results in the traditional sense.

Now on Google they are adding paid ads in the middle of the search results, not just the top or bottom.

The reason Google did well was the absence of ads. These LLMs like ChatGPT have now taken that experience that Google has lost.

Interesting, this post was removed (shadow delisted). I don't see it on the in the first 3 pages anymore after it was at number 11 just a few minutes ago.

Yeah, but that is where it starts. It’s like people who comment vs just reading/sharing the same opinion. Only a tiny fraction speak out. There are lots more who share the same opinion but just haven’t/don’t voice it.

Additionally there are those who attended the other rallies yesterday not at the dealerships but at other locations holding signs declaring their opinion towards Musk.

Hell, I just paid off my Tesla and I’m thinking of dumping it because I don’t want to be seen as someone who supports him.

The brand is 100% tarnished.

Only when sales/stock price take a long sustained hit will there be anything done.

They only care about their money.

This something that used to be done quite a bit in the SEO world. Not sure if still holds and SEO value. Probably some, but maybe not the same level.

Anyways there are tools out there. I haven’t used them

But a tool like https://www6.waybackmachinedownloader.com/website-downloader...

https://websitedownloader.com/

Should do the trick. Depending on the size of the site a small cost is involved.

They can even package them into unusable files.

You don’t need an insider for you know where to just buy the link. They hang their shingle out on at least one link buying marketplace.

What I think is most interesting is that one feature that they call out is its “ a real phone without social media”.

Guess if they want to go after a different demo, they could make a GI Joe phone. The “action figure” phone.

It helps them by generating a ton of links and mentions which Google still uses as a signal for authority. Getting high quality links from all sorts of places around the web is worth its weight in gold. So with these new links it will help to improve their rankings for a wide variety of keywords.

What is the end game for Reddit here? Losing free and motivated workers and gutting their communities, is that something they feel will blow over and they will be able to replace with their own figureheads? I haven’t gone back and I was addicted to the site for over 15 years.

I was a super long time lurker. Never made an account but was on there hours each day for the past +15 years.

I stopped going during the protest and haven’t gone back since. It was the straw for me.

I suspect I am not alone in this.

“Elon Musk emailed Twitter staff on Friday asking that any employees who write software code report to the 10th floor of Twitter's office in San Francisco at 2 p.m., according to an email reviewed by Reuters.

"There will be short, technical interviews that allow me to better understand the Twitter tech stack," Musk wrote in the memo.”

Not sure if troll or real but… “Twitter terminated my employment this afternoon. I was in charge of controlling Twitter office badge access.

Elon just phoned me to ask if I could return to assist them in regaining access to HQ after they disabled all badges and locked themselves out.”

Legal content is highly monetized.

I have had trouble finding similar content. Often these are buried in PDF reports by state agencies. There are some federal resources out there depending on what you need. But those are often hard to navigate too.

For something like what you want you may have to compile the date separately to compare it.

But yes, attorney SEO is a huge business

If this was part of a retargeting campaign it would probably be a good audience too.

There is no one size fits all. I’m a believer that office time should be optional. If I was an employer I want to get the most from my people. I want to empower them with the tools they need to get the best work done they can. If that is them working at home. Fine. If it’s having a dedicated space (office) that I pay for. Fine. They are adults and can figure out what works best for them. Why would I as an employer know how best all of my employees can work best.

New comment by janesvilleseo in "Ask HN: Is your company considering inflation in this year's comp review cycle?"

janesvilleseo — Fri, 11 Mar 2022 03:59:06 +0000

Exceeded - 0.0%

Yep

I knew that going in. I helped to secure 10 million in business in 2021. They disbanded our team. To “grow” it. I applied for the “new” role.

They offered less and said it would include 2022 annual raise.

Told by my managers manager they would make me right at the end of 2022 through a bonus. Asked for it in writing, never heard back.

This decrease in total comp plus inflation has seen my real world earned drop by 20% for 2022.
