  Yeah, I’ve thought the same. It’s like with ads on websites - ads are served from different domains and as blockers work by denying requests to those domains. If they really wanted they could serve the ads from the same domain as the rest of the website. I guess one day they might but so far it must not be worth it.

  Yeah you can have a PIN with Island.

  Assuming you’re asking about the password manager?

  Most important for me is that with Bitwarden I can share passwords with someone else.

  Interesting, I’ve always had the opposite problem - whatever I say they cut way too much off the top. Perhaps we should go together and order each other’s cuts?

  I’m not sure I have anything helpful to say other than to suggest keep trying different places until you find one that listens?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a “proper“ way to say “6:05 AM”?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll give you a short answer as you’ve got a lot of detailed ones already: to a native British English speaker “six oh five a m” sounds completely normal. There are other ways to say it that sound equally normal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Honest question: what was Hamas' long-game with respect to kidnapping Israelis? Did they think Israel would just negotiate rather than retaliate?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve heard it suggested that they didn’t expect to get as far as they did into Israel and they barely expected to get past the border wall. If that’s the case they may not have planned what to do when they did and so there may be no grand strategy behind some or all of it.

  I guess we’ll never know.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would I start as a database consultant for a niche software?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not a big important decision maker but if I always came across your website when searching for answers about software X and your GitHub when looking for code for software X I would go to my manager and say “why don’t we just pay this person to sort it out, they seem to know their stuff” and there’s a fair chance we’d do it.
