what about .js_sr_persuation_msg from tfa?
Haven't noticed that in my searches yet so haven't needed to add any blocking for that persuasion message. Do you still see it with these filters?

From the last time booking.com was discussed I picked up some ublock origin filters that make the website more bearable.
You can copy and paste them directly in your ublock config (ublock options -> My filters)

Things like Victorops/Splunk On-call are also down because of this.
This means if your alerts are fired through them, you'll peacefully be sleeping through this incident unless your customers wake you up.

> a bunch of other stuff which I don’t understand that well (metric 600, scope link, proto kernel, etc). Not understanding what those things mean hasn’t hurt me yet.
This is what I like about Julia's writing - she is frank and tells you when she doesn't know.
PresidentObama commented on Launch HN: The Lobby (YC W18) – 1-on-1 calls with company insiders to get hired · Posted by u/dchhugani
Thank you for the kind words and feedback! I'm copy pasting some stuff from the thread below.
"Definitely agree that this could be a problem. Practically speaking - we keep identities anonymous and so employees are protected.
Ethically speaking - if you have a buddy inside the company, they'll tell you how to prep with information the company wouldn't want you to know anyways.
It all comes back to our main point - if you don't have an inside connection, you don't get the juicy insights someone with that advantage does. So your odds of landing the job, let alone knowing what it takes to land it, are always lower. We bridge that gap - everything else in our view is a solvable problem because this engages current/former employees in the recruiting process + helps companies discover more talent.
The summary is that we're fine with keeping it anonymous now and here we have to take a bit more of a disruptive approach. Airbnb and Uber were both illegal (As in literally breaking laws) and still scaled and ultimately succeeded because they believed in the fundamental benefit of their service to the world.
The Lobby is completely legal, just maybe against some company policies, but we feel the benefits far outweigh the cons of some random company policy, even for the company itself as described above."
> Ethically speaking - if you have a buddy inside the company, they'll tell you how to prep with information the company wouldn't want you to know anyways.
I feel there are two views on this: From the candidate's perspective, his/her buddy might "owe" it to them to provide additional info which will give them a leg up in the application/interviewing process.
From the buddy's perspective, if they (company/hiring manager) have already decided on one candidate, it _might_ be fruitful to help them get the job, otherwise it would amount to unethical behavior by not giving all the candidates an equal footing.
> Even in HK and Taiwan, WeChat is not used outside of those reasons.
Before someone asks, the approximate equivalent of WeChat in Taiwan is Line. Don't know what it is in HK.
The equivalent of WeChat in HK is WhatsApp.
