Is it weird that all the stories about the fugitive high school coach suspected of child porn and soliciting a minor go on and on rhapsodizing his team's undefeated football season?

Did this French lady, Liz Brady, invent hiphop in 1966? I've heard a lot of rap precursors before, but this was a first. Anyway, great song. H/t @WFMU #djtrouble

Wait until you hear how much energy it costs for humans to make a video of an exploding potato! https://t.co/kpoFQIjdWC

You may have read an MIT Tech Review article article recently doing the rounds, estimating the carbon footprint of a 5-second AI-generated video requiring 3.4 million joules (MJ).

Hey @Gboard, swiping is still SO much better than tapping like Phones monkeys, but it feels like the feature has been neglected. Also, dictation now injects wrong punctuation and repeats words, and neither swipe nor voice ever learn custom names. Could we get some AI learning?

Interesting. The role of USAID in ending apartheid in South Africa. https://t.co/Wq3ZXQo0ja

A bunch of singers on the SNL 50th Homecoming concert needed to transpose keys. 1st act, Miley Cyrus and Britney Howard (whose guitar wasn't working), too low. Jelly Roll's Johnny Cash tribute was really rough.

Ugh. I just realized Trump is going to be inaugurated on Martin Luther King Day. I expect he is turning in his grave.π

Everyone out there saying turkey is flavorless, you're just telling on your mama. It's not America's fault she wasn't a good cook.

The only real ROAS is experiment-based, incremental ROAS. Accept no quasi-experimental imitations.

Annual cookie-decorating-party time. We've lots of Xmas-y shapes, but since we're areligious with many Jewish friends, we got a menorah and dreidel last year. Thought I'd fill out the collection again now. MARKET GAP ALERT: Unitarian, Kwanzaa and Pagan cookie cutters!

Some good news. https://t.co/OQhGKRH7ni

'The Master and Margarita,' an adaptation of Mikhail Bulgakov's iconic semi-autobiographical novel, is headed to AFM with Luminosity Pictures.
I sure hope this gets a U.S. distributor. It's a favorite novel of mine, and apparently all of the movie adaptations that came before this stank. But this sounds tremendous, especially in light of the real politics of it. https://t.co/dfkLrjr3ym

Thanks @adexchanger for publishing my vision of how publishers could better enable ZIP code targeting, solving ad measurement. Then advertisers could run randomized controlled trials with ZIPs to measure ROI accurately with no PII, tech, 3rd parties. https://t.co/NBFzjfAx8H

Imagine the potential for conducting geo experiments using ZIP codes instead of Nielsenβs Designated Market Areas.

Dear @AmazonFresh, I hate your new freezer bags so much. I can't recycle or compost them. I'm supposed to just put these in the garbage can for the landfill? Come on. Look what year it is. Read a headline.

This talk about Russia putting nukes in space to knock out satellites makes me glad to be Gen X, with Mad Max skills like ability to read a paper map, address an envelop and drive stick.

An American directorβs adaptation of the beloved novel is resonating with moviegoers, who may recognize some similarities in its satire of authoritarian rule.

I am deeply honored to be recognized by the @iab my contributions to this industry I love! The Annual Leadership Meeting was an inspiring event, a welcome chance to catch up with so many old friends. What a great way to start 2024!

@RadPowerBikes Oh yeah I forgot the kicker. After I slogged the bike there and paid the fee for them to diagnose it, it just needs a basic electronic component from you, but you told them 8 to 12 business days! What a joke. I'm without transit for 3 weeks. I wish your CEO would read this.
