Black hat SEO is endlessly fascinating phenomenon to study. This post is about some tactics they use to make their sites rank higher. The goal of blackhat SEO is to boost the search engine ranking of a page nobody particularly wants to see, usually ePharma, escort services, online casinos, shitcoins, hotel bookings; the bermuda pentagon of shady websites. The theory behind most modern search engines is that if you get links from a high ..

Hi! I hope this standard letter saves us both some time, which we could all use a little bit more of these days." 👋 Thanks for reaching out. I’m always open to hearing about new and exciting opportunities and what amazing things that people are building. I do get a high volume of recruitment emails, and I totally acknowledge and am thankful for how lucky I am to be in that position.

So uh, we set up Nitter, over at tw.artemislena.eu . Also, Matrix isn't currently working, we hope it will work soon after it has synced stuff, but can't guarantee anything. A lot of people tried to reach us over Jami instead, which didn't work, so we aren't officially reachable over that anymore, meaning currently, you should probably try either Signal or e-mail (or CryptPad, if you have to). Alternatively, fc17 has an alt at fairdust.sp..

WFH Day 693 I’m back in California for a week now, and my Jetlag is finally gone. Every time I travel to Germany, it feels like it’ll take longer to recover. And this week, I had a lot of meetings and tons of work to finish our development sprint. Not great, but I punched through it.

Well, actually.. I first got the wrong configuration (base model instead of CTO), had to return it to them after wasting a day on migrating my data to it, they sent my money back by mistake, had to pay them again, and after many calls and emails....

Would you like to experiment with analyzing or manipulating audio with Python? This week on the show, we have Braden Riggs from DolbyIO to discuss extracting audio features and Python libraries for reshaping audio. Braden shares techniques from his recent talk at PyData Global, "Unlocking More From Your Audio Data!"

My little lab can afford some experimental allowances given that I'll never (hopefully) breach the "thousands of hosts" mark. One experiment that paid off recently was ditching Traefik v1 for a hybrid setup that uses Nomad , consul-template , Caddy , and wireguard in order to provide the HTTP routing layer for my services. I think it's an interesting solution, and it has proven a) particularly resilient and b) very easy to mai....

I’ve been thinking a lot about how difficult it has become to discover quality content on the Internet, not because it isn’t there, but because the signal to noise ratio is really bad, and most venues of discovery don’t seem to be able to handle it. Recommendation algorithms seem to work almost too well, to the point where it’s all kind of just showing you things you already like, rarely anything new that you might like. It’s an absolute ..

Should children be allowed unlimited screen time? If not, what limits should we impose? This is a fairly common question that parents have to reckon with these days. What I find missing in these discussions is that not all screen time is created equal. In my mind, there are two main kinds of screen time. On the one hand, there is the harmful kind. It’s the passive, mind-numbing, and unprofitable waste of time where we allow children ..

I have been playing around with offline non cloud tool replacements for doing things like speech to text and the like. One that I found which looked promising was voice2json which is a command line tool for turning speech intent into text. It can do generic conversion too, but a review of that is not the subject of this post. Following the instructions from the website http://voice2json.org/install.html worked fine up till I tried to ru..
