Oh my. I clicked on this and uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger went nuts: 14 & 6 blocked just on the first page.

Clicking "lesson 4.1. printf" bumped that up to 101 & 16. That is just too much.

Can confirm. Something is deeply wrong with this site. I haven't seen my uBlock counter fly off like this in a while.

Are you sure its not some false positive?

Can you give an example of the URL(s) that are being blocked?

Bulk of those blocked requests are to Launch Darkly, Datadog and Stripe.

I'd expect commenters on tech-oriented site to understand how uBlock Origin works... or at the very least how to check the browser console instead of fearmongering.

I found teaching something a concept at a time a bit ineffective at least to me.

It's like learning to play a piece of music on an instrument.

You're given an exercise with many concepts at once! Then you're listened how it's played at a whole, then you start to learn piece by piece to play such exercise.

I couldn’t see much passed all the ads. Looked like it could be nice but wow, turn the ads down a tad. Immediately turned me off from the site.
