Inaudible sounds to track you for ads.
Following the recent debate about ad-technology and how annoying it is and advertisers insight, you may have though it could only get better from there. Turns out, it can be worse if these claims about tracking through inaudible sounds from ads hold true.Privacy advocates warn feds about surreptitious cross-device tracking.

Even though I’d consider this inacceptible from a consumers perspective, I’d be very curious about the (audio) technology and the kind of insight this provides, from a marketing perspective. Just consider a TV-Ad broadcasting this signal to a room full of people, for one the signal would sure be difficult to detect.

AWS in Plain English
You develop apps and want to move to the cloud? You may start looking at Amazon Web Services (AWS), but are confused? ExpeditedSSL translates the names for you. Priceless.

Haskell and the Future of Coding
Haskell is a 25-year-old programming language that isn’t all that popular. But Facebook uses it, and that’s a sign of things to come.Wow.
