Question for Ao3 authors!

As an avid reader who loves, admires and wants to support Ao3 authors, I’m curious as to what is the best protocol for when we come across typos or significant error? I would love to know!

I’m happy to go ‘hunh’ and move on, but I’ve read that some folks feel like typos are like speed-bumps and derail the momentum of the read, and depending on the error, they might even abandon the fic :(

Is there a way to discreetly contact an author in Ao3 that I don’t know about? Would love to know your opinions and suggestions!

is there a system to how you add tags to your rbs? just curious, bc ive noticed you add the username and sometimes a line from the post itself (if its an image usuall y?) but i was wondering whether you actually keep track of the other tags you put in or if its just random/commentary-ish

Yes: there IS a system. I tag for subject matter, and if there's an Iconic Line I'll tag it AND 'Compelling Phraseology' so I have a nice tag full of pithy phrases, and then sometimes I'll tag for Vibes or characters a post reminds me of. But then I ALSO put commentary in sometimes, obvsl, then I have a whole series of tags for stuff I do, like 'zA's Inveterate Politicism' for whenever I rant about politics. I try to stay consistent, but sometimes I forget, and sometimes I phase out tags, and sometimes I misspell them without realizing it, so I won't claim it's 100%. There is a notebook u_u u_u

CEID 100 - Week 1

Living in a world where everything and everyone becomes a product is something that has become our new reality. Materialism and overconsumption have quickly overtaken physical materials and transformed us, social media users, into a real Facebook Marketplace. With the average person spending 143 min (Statista, n.d.) on social media per day, platforms like Meta, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, and many more have been able to understand the proximity they have with the consumer through these platforms. Through time, they have transformed how we shop, get inspired, and mostly how we want to present ourselves to the world. People like you and me have built a social media image that we most likely have control over, or at the least, we think we do have. On the other hand, celebrities like Kim Kardashian or Millie Bobby Brown have such low control over their images that when it comes to social media, a whole crew of people is involved in managing this multibillion-dollar business that we hold in our hands. 

When it comes to best practices, many different strategies can be used. On one side, we have Kim Kardashian, who was first known for her challenging moments over the internet; this is someone who has chosen to let users decide on her image. Living on the “Speak of it well, Speak of it ill, but speak of it” concept, Kim Kardashian’s image isn’t, in my opinion, best practice. She has little or no control over her image; to some extent, you forget her audience/niche and what she is trying to do within this world. Her personal branding is mixed in various directions; she lets the internet decide her faith after each post, story, or interview. Some of the content online is inappropriate and provocative and doesn’t always show her her best day. She has decided to let the user-generated platform build her image. 

Finally, on the other side, we have Millie Bobby Brown, mostly known for the role of Eleven in Netflix's successful series Stranger Things, who, in my opinion, delivers social media’s best practice. Her image is well controlled; we can easily tell her content is polished and know her center of interest. When looking at her profile, there is a line of conduct throughout the posts, and her personality shines through. In this post, she is representing her company and even though this is entirely in the purpose of selling, she is still keeping her image clean and authentic to her online persona.

Q. How long should a young child take antibiotics for pneumonia?

Since many lower respiratory tract infections are caused by viruses, shorter antibiotic courses (3-5 days) for uncomplicated community acquired pneumonia in young children 2m-5y may be noninferior to longer courses (7-10 days). Treatment failure happens ~12% of cases.

I don't mind Tumblr changing things, and in fact I like a lot of the small changes they've made recently.

One thing I hate though is that the site as a whole seems slower and less responsive. In spite of me having a much faster, more reliable internet connection and a much faster computer than when I started using Tumblr years ago, the responsiveness of the site has become much slower when I do basic actions like liking or reblogging a post.

There are sometimes long delays when I click the like button on a post, sometimes more than 1 or even 2 seconds. This is strange. When I go to reblog a post, often the post takes many seconds before it comes up.

I also notice delays when looking at people's blogs. Like sometimes when I scroll down, the whole site just starts being sluggish, and often it cranks my CPU. I hate this. It not only is annoying to me, it's running my CPU, using up my battery life or my electricity that I pay for in my home. It feels disrespectful to me as a user, like one of those spammy websites that has all the horrible ads that crank the CPU and make my fan turn on.

I really hope this doesn't get worse, and I would really, really like it to get better. It's so frustrating to see the technology, including the CPU's, memory, and internet bandwidth, and cloud hosting technology, get dramatically better and cheaper over the years, and yet have the quality-of-service, speed, and CPU utilization get worse during the same period. The only possible explanation is bloat and incompetence.

I don't program my own websites this way. They have gotten faster over the years, as the technology has improved. If you're not doing it this way, you're doing it wrong.

Yes I'm talking to you @staff

OK, it would be a bad career move to say this to the person who should hear it, so I'll yell it into the void instead:

When you plan a hardware upgrade, you must support the old hardware until the new is Completely Deployed. And you have No Business beginning a deployment until you know the new hardware will work AT LEAST as well as the old.

Thank you and have a nice day.
