Users mod their feeds as per RSS you just unsubscribe from idiots.

Its a bit like the internet itself. Lots of shoddy sites, but no one needs to visit them. Search spam is the exception but let a Google handle that.

hodl··on Ask HN: Why is telephone “hold music” still such poor quality?
What I also notice in Australia is when that music plays the volume slowly tends to zero. I worry that I've lost reception, but when they pick up its fine. I also notice the phone seems to "know" its on hold as there is an audible cue, so perhaps the carrier is deprioritising on hold audio.

hodl··on Look for the duct tape
I once has to log time on everything. It was a tempting workaound to log time to the wrong ticket (still one of mine though) so that none of the tickets go over estimate, so I wouldn't be taken to task. I even thought of writing a tool to keep the mapping of real ticket to fake ticket.

Also better to try and get more nebulous work that can carry a higher estimate/ buffer in the first place. And never refactor in the same ticket. Create a new one. But that won't get done so just let it go.
