Ad-Tracking Consent & The Dilemma: Some Thoughts on the Washington Post Case: https://mingli.me/2018/12/06/ad-tracking-consent-the-dilemma...


That's intriguing to the point I tried to find the relevant web site. Thanks for conveying your experience with it: http://web.archive.org/web/20080212005133/http://gpt.berlios...


For some URLs given one of their old Wayback Machine entries it would be nice to be able to render those in their contemporaneous browser environments (e.g., going way back maybe Mosaic 3.0 or IE 10) to maybe then have a chance of working with some close facsimile of the original interface and functionality.

Years ago a real estate agent driving me around to look at property relayed a somewhat pessimistic aphorism he'd picked up from his father: Life's a shit sandwich, the more bread you have the less it tastes like shit.


I feel like that would be better paired with the "dough" double meaning instead of bread. "Life's a shit pizza, the more dough you have the less it tastes like shit."


Bread is a synonym for dough in that meaning


dough is colloquialism for money, which makes the quote funnier due to the double entendre.


"Bread" is also a colloquialism for money. It's the same joke.


I have never heard any rapper refer to money as bread!


https://www.etymonline.com/word/Bread

> Slang meaning "money" dates from 1940s, but compare breadwinner, and bread as "one's livelihood" dates to 1719. Bread and circuses (1914) is from Latin, in reference to food and entertainment provided by the government to keep the populace content. "Duas tantum res anxius optat, Panem et circenses" [Juvenal, Sat. x.80].


Here is one where they use bread, dough and cheese to mean money: https://genius.com/105625


"Bread and Honey" is rhyming slang for Money.


so is bread.

C2FO | Research Engineer | Seattle | ONSITE, Full time, Visa considered | https://c2fo.com

The C2FO lab is charged with developing tools for small businesses to help them win the fight against their own unpredictable cash flow using networks instead of traditional financial intermediaries, e.g., banks.

Today we work mainly in Go and JavaScript and put roughly equal emphasis on writing papers and writing software. Team members need to be able to define their own areas of interest, write their own supporting documents, and lead their own coding projects while welcoming help and input from others. Simultaneous with the largely independent effort is a need to demonstrate to stakeholders outside the team why your work is valuable.

Our interview process consists of an initial conference call to assess mutual interest, then one or more onsite interviews in Pioneer Square.

C2FO as an organization is headquartered in Kansas City and has some great investors on board including Mithril Capital Management, Temasek, and Union Square Ventures. We have a separate, larger engineering team that we collaborate with and that publishes open source at https://github.com/c2fo.

The position includes an excellent compensation package (commensurate with experience), equity ownership, Health Benefits, 401K and more.

If interested, please email pete@c2fo.com.
