[Meta] Programming Word Chain
Programming word chain
In here everyone can only say 1 line of code. The next User has to add something logical after that.
The Programming Langauge is
Javascript
. (and no minified js doesnt count!)If a user created a function
The next user who wants to create something IN that function replies to the first user!
User1: > function doSomething(arg1) { > > User2 > > console.log("Inside this function") > > User3 > > >}
Community Rules still apply!
Example:
User1: const apples = 50
User2: const trees = apples * 5
( Sort by "Old" )

YouTube could be testing a three-strikes policy for ad blocking
www.androidauthority.com YouTube could be testing a three-strikes policy for ad blocking (Update)A Redditor has discovered a popup on YouTube, warning them of a three-strikes policy for blocking ads. YouTube has since confirmed the test.
Youtube will be seeing something like Reddit if they are going through. As this will screw over Advertisers as they pay more because many more people are "forced" to see ads but they arent interested and dont click on it.
