A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm a developer, and the shit I've been asked to throw in for SEO is just infuriating.

"Here's 500 keywords we need added"
"Half of this isn't even about our product"
"Marketing says we need it, so add it."

I swear, the two jobs least needed in this world are middle managers and marketers.

@scrubbles @alyaza

This is the opposite of SEO unless your goal was to make sure you never appear on the first page.

They do realize sites that tag spam are heavily penalized by Google?

Off-topic: why do you tag the user whose comment you're directly responding to? Others, sure, but the parent comment already gets a notification of your response.

They were posting from mastodon, I guess that's just by default.
