    The only way I can see to fix this is if there was more economic incentive for advertisers to care about the quality of the articles where their ads are placed. There must have bee…

    Maybe some, but not all. An old but concrete example: Andy Grove, in High Output Management, describes a fairly typical 8 to 5 day in which he works until he's tired, with level of…

    I'm by no means a medieval scholar. But this doesn't mesh at all with the information in the"The Swerve" by Stephen Greenblatt (a national book award winner). The texts of the paga…
