  • Well, for almost a decade the GOP has had time to come up with their vision. They ran on “Repeal and Replace” in the 2016 cycle. But when it came time to vote to repeal, they still didn’t have a replace option.

    Prices didn’t go down when the 2018 tax cuts reduced corporate tax by about 30%, I doubt when the ACA gets repealed and insurance companies can drop the uninsurable people they will lower the prices for healthy Americans, because they are already anchored at the higher price.


  • Technically that’s true, because it changed the law where you can’t be denied coverage because of pre-existing conditions, but I’m guessing OP means he uses the marketplace thingy instead of having insurance provided by work.

    (Also, the affordable care act didn’t force you to have insurance, it was a tax penalty to not have insurance, but the 2018 tax act set that penalty to $0)

    Verge article where the claim is due to ad blocker mitigation and not browser specific.

    You said that you heard it was ad blocker related too. So the initial wave of reports about it being Firefox was inaccurate. Every article about it all sourced a singular reddit post. Just some social media “journalism”.

    Anecdotally, which I understand is not a great measure, I didn’t experience this when it was first being reported on. But I pay for YouTube premium, so maybe that’s a difference too



  • I don’t think you’re looking for a registrar, you are looking for some third party DNS server that acknowledges “the domain scam” I guess.

    All the major and minor DNS providers rely on the w3 registrar to populate their domain name to IP addresses. So services like hover or GoDaddy will register with the registrar and then DNS services will get your routing info from them.

    I’m not aware of any other registrar out there or some DNS service that allows you to submit your own routing info.


  • I do think it’s important to mention that the jump to senior is largely an accumulation of domain knowledge,

    I feel that. I’m a senior dev on my team of about 7 software engineers, but I often feel like I’d just be a junior somewhere else. Worst case scenario is I can add to my resume that I helped convert a vb6 shop to a c# shop, not sure what that’s worth though xD
