Anyone know what the gi= means at the end of the url?


Stack Overflow suggests that it might be some sort of cross-domain fingerprinting:

Interesting - thanks.


seems to work fine without as well, could it be related to the platform "medium"?


Without anyone watching the Watchmen it's very easy for mods to be financially rewarded for protecting blatant adverts in posts even if it goes against a sub's guidelines.

Anyone that starts pointing this out gets shadowbanned or downvoted by the herd.


I don't think you have avoided it completely. Advertising is everywhere you look. Even in Netflix you still see brands in TV shows.


Great idea, but keeps crashing for me (firefox)


It would be good to build a company corpus using completed .mpp files.



Thank you kindly!


The frontpage of the site suggests so.


> I don't consider ip property

Wait, what?


Well one of the defining characteristics of property is that there is finite amounts of it.

But we have inexhaustible supplies of 0s and 1s, and words.


It'd be nice if we could have a happy medium it's like we can only live in extremes. On one end, we have the US, the land of patent trolls and divisions of companies suing other divisions of companies for millions and wasting years of time. On the other end, we have China where people just blatantly steal everything. Released a new successful product on Amazon? Get ready to be undercut by 50% or more by some no-name brand out of nowhere!


where is your privacy policy?


Are they restructuring? Are they just bad at business? Some guitar manufacturers are doing really well [1] so it's weird that this is happening.
