That doesn't mean we have to like them.
And a better (less spammy) title may be in order.

Seriously?
"Creating a Production-Ready WebRTC App for Video Calls: 5 Considerations for Developers"
Where's the spam? If I were a developer working on a video call system (and we've worked on something similar) then an article that lays out questions you need to know the answers to before you start is hugely useful.
I'm pretty harsh on our sponsors about what's OK and what's not but that article I particularly liked. It provides information without asking anything from you. It offers their take on the problem without pushing.
cheers

It's not a professional-quality title. I wouldn't take it seriously.
Might be OK for a blog, not for an article.
Just shy of, "this one weird trick..."
Along with all the, "the blah blah blah you will use!", posts.

I have seen (and reported to you) several articles getting that message or the "editorial note" without being real showcases

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

So where do you draw the line?
This is a sponsor, which CP obviously needs to keep it free.
But every article uses one product or another.
Is it not advertisement when an article uses C#?
Only because C# is more widely used or because it's free?
C# comes with Visual Studio, which has a paid subscription.
And don't forget the Windows you need to run it.
Ultimately, they're all advertisements, except that we only tolerate those whose products we already use.
Personally, I don't care as long as the article is good.
I'll read it if I think I need the product (or maybe it solves a problem I have, but I just don't know it yet).
This article is pretty informative even when I don't need their product, so I see no problem (even if it wasn't a sponsor).
I don't make the rules though

That was never my intent, and I think it was Dennis Leary who said that if (paraphrasing) that's how you're living your life, you're not doing it right...

Maybe it should be a compostable coffin? It seems like Griff is into recycling.
I, for one, like Roman Numerals.

at least though it'll stop the magicians attending the wake from sawing the coffins in half,
... they never like to reveal how the trick is done.

Some might have a bone to pick with you over that thought.

I doubt it. Methinks the public will see through that idea.

more of a selling point to a mausoleum, because the remains would be seen!

Possibly successful? I would say that's clearly dead.

It panes me to ask but this needs to be undertaken: is a glass coffin just a room-with-a-view?
Shatters the old ideas while going down in a glaze of glory.

Found this nice channel featuring Neil deGrasse Tyson on YouTube: StarTalk - YouTube

Is the YouTube Channel new to you, or the show itself? 'cuz the show's been a fixture on National Geographic for 5 years now.
FWIW: Here's the RSS feed (which what all you really need, unless you insist on video): StarTalk Radio
I think they've recorded a lot more episodes (as audio only) than TV shows.
[Edit]
I knew this wasn't right either. It started as a podcast in 2009. The TV show is the spin-off.

I did not knew anything about it! I found the channel this week. Thanks for information!

You've got a lot of catching up to do.
