Your revised theory is that Ars is actually a Condé company because of the logo in the footer? Not sure that’s how corporate law works.

Take a minute and do some research. Advance owns Ars and the terms of the acquisition allow it to have total independence.

But again, I recommend you contact the Ars editors directly and share your theory that the Condé logo at the bottom of the page proves that they are in fact Condé stooges and have no editorial independence. See what they say. Their DMs are open.

Very insightful piece of analysis. Why don’t you email the Ars editors your theory that they are corporate Condé stooges and see what they say? As I mentioned in a sibling comment it’s actually Advance that owns Ars, not Condé, and it’s a different leadership group.

No. It’s run as a separate company inside the company.

And technically Condé does not own Ars, Advance does. Different leadership group.

The terms of the Conde's acquisition state they are not allowed to interfere with the operation of the site.

The depth of articles or the decision to pull in Wired content is strictly an editorial decision made by Ars editorial leadership.

Targeted advertising is not similar to selling internal organs.

Databricks' core value proposition is Apache Spark in the cloud, optimized with their special sauce (eg Proton engine).

Running your own Spark, especially on prem, is a lot of work. Most companies would prefer to just provide their data and let someone else handle the query engine.

The parent is right however that Databricks has a feature store (tokenization) but it's not simple to set up and just getting content in and out of it is a major pain point right now.
