Submission + - DuckDuckGo Browser Now Blocks Most YouTube Ads (nerds.xyz)

BrianFagioli writes: DuckDuckGo has added built-in YouTube ad blocking to its browser, allowing users to skip most pre-roll and mid-roll ads while watching videos on the YouTube website. The feature is enabled by default on Windows, macOS, and iPhone, with Android support rolling out by default soon. DuckDuckGo says it uses community-maintained filter lists from the uBlock Origin project, along with its own compatibility rules, to keep pace with changes to YouTube ad delivery. While the feature will likely be welcomed by users tired of interruptions, it also raises questions about YouTube Premium and how creators are compensated when ad revenue is bypassed.

Central banks do a lot of useful things, but they don't give currency a value (they can, however manipulate the value others give it by printing it, destroying it, changing interest rates, changing the amount of reserve banks need and the multiple they can lend, etc). What gives a currency value is supply and demand- the fact other people want that currency. Which is also what sets international exchange rates.

There's also the fact you need it to pay taxes, which sets a base amount of demand. But beyond that it's all supply and demand when deciding how much value it has against other currencies or physical objects.

Why would you do that? If you're using it for non-strings, you'd never have used strncpy, you'd have used memcpy. Which is the same thing without the null termination rules of strncpy. You'd never use the str versions unless actually working on strings.
