They don't need to read your mind. The systems that push ads to you are also owned by the companies that are pushing contents and shaping how you see the internet. It's like how magicians incept ideas into your head then use it like they can read your mind.

But why?
Should definitely read I don't want to talk about it by Terrance Real which dives into this.

Re:Too Many Video Streaming Choices May Drive Users Back To Piracy on Wednesday September 18, 2019 @03:28PM (#21009053)
The problem is not too many choices. It's actually the lack of choice. Each series is going to a different streaming platform which means we have to pick up more stream services
Re:Is High Quality Software Worth the Cost? on Thursday May 30, 2019 @10:51AM (#20051764)
The problem is prototypes end up being production code in the real world. Writing tests is about managing risk. You should write some basal level of unit test as you go to validate your logic as you go. That basal level is determined by the team or individual tolerance of risk
Re:Can anyone explain why this crash editors? on Wednesday July 12, 2017 @07:35PM (#14757594)
Right but it looks like (i was able to load it for Atom and Notepad++ but very slow) they perform soft wrap on these long lines
Re:Can anyone explain why this crash editors? on Wednesday July 12, 2017 @07:29PM (#14757566)
Why would long lines crash editors?

Can anyone explain why this crash editors?

I was coding and something happened with atom and I was unable to reopen my project without atom crashing. I deleted my code in notepad and extract this which is causing crashes in Microsoft Word and extreme lag in notepad++ and Atom. Anyone know why this is the case?PS: This file is only 9mb so it shouldn't be too big for anything to view...

I think the writer is trying to talk about how this show portraits, in his mind, a distance future yet it is a show about now. One could easily see this show, if created just 10 years ago, a futurist crime show. The author is trying to describe how in 10 years so much has change and how digital everything is and how much computers has taken over our lives
Re:Qualcomm Insider: Apple 64-Bit Chip `Hit Us in the Gut' on Monday December 16, 2013 @06:27PM (#6918596)
I don't think 64 bits matters yet however Apple knows that people will want this 64bit magical thing forcing their competition to follow suit
Re:Qualcomm Insider: Apple 64-Bit Chip `Hit Us in the Gut' on Monday December 16, 2013 @06:26PM (#6918585)
I think Apple pulled a good one on Android and other mobile OSes. With Android's ecosystem being so fragmented and Windows is still trying to get a foot hold on the apps market, a push to 64bit will further fragment their ecosystem.

Interesting that the 24 inch is now 1920x1080 rather than 1920x1200 I guess I will be skipping the 24 inch.
It's mind-boggling how complex the universe is yet somehow we are capable of understanding it.

Not much of a physicist myself but I am wondering if the technology developed for nuclear fusion would have any use in progressing other fields
