It's not the right answer either, which is the whole idea of MQOTD ...
The right answer is "The Money Pit".

On the contrary, I think someone needs stronger meds.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

"Make dashboards without IT staff!" - umm, we're pretty much all devs here. 
"Journey to the cloud. Meet our experts in the trenches" - umm, why would i go to people stuck in trenches if I'm looking to be in a cloud? That seems kind of counterproductive.
Maybe I'm just easily entertained.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

I don't block ads on this site because they're unobtrusive, and also I've had issues with them whilst editing articles here.

Well to be honest, I do block them on sites that abuse my browser with them. Many sites are so overrun with ads its almost impossible to use them without a blocker.

Occasionally I come across a site like that and I just close the tab and move on. They clearly don't have anything of value for me.

I've had some sites where i was a regular eventually go that route. I did eventually move on.

I use uBlock, and it's defaulted to "block all". And it gives you a count of how many it blocks...
If I use a site more than a couple of times, and the count is small enough, it gets added to the whitelist, like CP is.
If the number if too high - and I've seen 40 or so on some sites - I'll just bugger off and not go back. Very little on t'interwebs is so unique that I can't find what I want on a less greedy / more user friendly site.

That's true. There have been times when I've become a regular at a site though and later they add a bunch of ads. Like I told ZD, I eventually move on in those cases.
Some sites like Mediaite will actually crash your browser with all of its ads, and they have a blocker detector.
I never visit.

uBlock does not work for Edge, does it? I use the hosts file and it works just fine.

The only thing that works for Edge is downloading Chrome or FireFox ... it doesn't even read EPUB files anymore, and that is the only thing it did at all well!

I use Firefox but had to revert to Edge to correctly print articles on, uh, this website. I think the problem[^] is being worked. As for Chrome, I consider Google evil and would never install it.

I posted that from work, and I don't see ads on CP at work because... well, I don't know why. I can't install software of any kind. It's a DoD system, so they may be doing something.
At home, I'm running PiHole DNS, which blocks ads based on their URL. It updates itself automatically every so often.
I'm not going to apologize for not wanting to see ads.
