At my job we write everything in english. Code comments, variable names, review comments. Everything. It’s just to make everything readable to people who don’t know our language because some people in the office are from other countries.

Since you are moving to Denmark: flee! Take a car and drive north to seek refuge in Sweden. Once you make it there you are safe, but you never know, the Danes could invade any minute. Keep driving north until you start seeing reindeer walking around like they own the place. Move into a cabin in the woods and never look back. The Danes can’t reach you there.

Pursuing sculpting when you dont like sculpting seems like a bad idea. Is there even a lot of jobs in sculpting?

I guess so, but sponsors are easier to skip since that are always the same length. If the ad changes length you cant use the time stamps to skip it automatically

No that’s not it. As I mentioned in the post, these ads change based on my location. They are absolutely not added by the people making the podcast because they are not even in the same language as the rest of the podcast.

As far as I can tell it depends on the podcast. Some have ads in every episode and some never have any

Thank you for the explanation. Kinda sucks that a premium service like Spotify doesn’t even host their own content, but that’s capitalism I guess.

Sure they decide that the ad should exist, but how? When I see a mid-roll ad on YouTube for example it was put there by the person who uploaded the video but the content of the ad is delivered by youtube. Who is delivering the content of these ads?

Thanks, that’s good to know! Although this seems to be more related to sponsors. Like the podcast host doing an ad-read. I don’t mind them as much because then at least the creators of the podcast are getting all the money and the ad is not tracking me to figure out what ad to serve me. What I am referring to is more like a regular ad that you would hear on the radio that has been stitched on to the beginning of the episode.

Oh absolutely. I understand that. But is Spotify even the one who is adding/profiting from the ads? I seems like this is coming from someone else since the ads are also on AntennaPod

I get that. But is Spotify using the same third party server then? Because the ads are always the same regardless of platform

This happened to my Surface pro 4 with both Windows and Linux. Could be a hardware issue.

Loads for me. It is a video of a small device with a screen. Both ends of a usb-c cable are connected to the device and the screen shows the max power, max data speeds and other information about the cable.
