Well, looks like somebody found a "cure" for adblock ;)

I miss the Wired of ten years ago. Now whenever I pick one up I am immensely disappointed by the hype and marketing. I remember it being more rigorous with respect to both journalism and technical acumen.

Edit: or not, per other post regarding adblock coming soon to apple.

>I miss the Wired of ten years ago.

This is what I said ten years ago! In truth Wired has always been a lot of hand-wavy hype wrapped around bits of legit interest. I think you just outgrow it eventually.

I debated saying 20 years ago, but I didn't want to show my age.

Those bits of interest have become more mainstream and the same content can be found in more detail elsewhere. 10-20 yrs ago Wired was often the first place to get that information (or at least the first without digging).

Honestly, it was about 1000x better just 3 years ago :/
