Doesn't this basically mean two dead from flooding? Might as well rewrite the headline to blame the deaths on energy from the sun which drives the Earth's weather. But it's 3P cookie deprecation that's killing news. (I know I'm being obnoxious but that's a shit headline; a complete joke)

Oh yeah? Well here's 322. 😝https://cloud.google.com/transform/101-real-world-generative-ai-use-cases-from-industry-leaders

I bet you in their reporting it says that this unit served into a 728x90 placement. (Because someone bought the 300x250 impression and then resold it and iframed a 728x90 placement into it...I mean it *is* technically a 728x90 placement! No fraud!)

Suburbs + nice restaurants = not a thing

Just turned on my new Raspberry Pi 500 for the first time! Anyone ever advice for getting started and/or any tutorial recs? I’m hoping to teach myself some Python so I can build/run some programs using LLMs, but have zero experience…Advice welcome!

Did a little urban exploration with the kids this morning. There is an abandoned narrow gauge railroad in forest park (used to be a zoo ride). We walked quite a bit of it and found two working railroad switches! Beautiful morning for a fun adventure.

Congrats to the team at Sincera on the acquisition by TTD. I've always admired their exceptional metadata. The potential to merge Sincera’s rich supply-side data with TTDs massive buy-side data is truly exciting. This integration could fill a critical gap in reporting and analysis for publishers.

Second ink and watercolor class.

Me on the airplane, dejectedly scrolling the library of House MD reruns on the seat back TV.

I've probably missed and therefore offended a bunch of people, but here's a starter pack if you're looking to follow posts about advertising, marketing, adtech etc. go.bsky.app/VgYZuzy

Another season, another art class. This is an ink and watercolor class. First class was just practicing line work, watercolor. Plus I made some colored pencil swatches as a doodle.

My first day at the cereal company, I'm going to pitch Oops! All Vienna Sausages.

Now do Shiv playing air piano on the dashboard of a speeding rental car with a lit ciggie dangling from his grinning teeth.

In post covid shitworld, of course it is.

“That’s the problem, I don’t think any platform, not just Google, can maintain the promise of privacy and precision with the amount of regulations and rules that every country has to follow at this point."

How do they get all that orange juice into the oranges?

Current stage of weekend parenting: put a cardboard box in their room and hope they stay entertained for a minute or two.

Gladiator 2 was time well spent and a perfectly fine movie, but: - Mescal and Pascal were both miscast - Washington's character didn't get evil enough; he played it too cool/aloof for too long - there were several scenes missing which would have better established key parts of the story arc

Apparently oregon is where all the xmas trees come from

Wow, there is a crazy amount of news today. - Assad toppled apparently? - CEO shooter possibly caught? - IPG / Omnicom merger - possible mdlz x hersheys acquisition

So far, every AI-generated image of a person I've seen looks like a very, very detailed rubber s*x doll.

I definitely don't work in whatever industry I ought to be in order to understand this gibberish.

Another twitter clone, but with illuminated drop caps.

He's finally here! The party can get started. 🥳

This looks like a wacky 4-wheeled bicycle patent from like 1885.

In recent days, 10yo daughter has baked an apple pie, two pumpkin pies, and a quiche completely unsupervised. 🥧

Has anyone created an industry Bible aka calendar for CES?

Ironically the holidays are when i get into the best shape. - slow work - sh*t weather; no sunbathing - gym daycare for kiddos - my heroic overeating days are behind me Walking around sore AF right now.

First adtech company to put Kevin Hart in a TV commercial wins. Looking at you, Applovin. Superbowl is coming up. Fat market cap. Just sayin.

We seem to have reached the tipping point where Kevin Hart is on TV more minutes of the day than he is not.

Every episode:

Ancient aliens is legit the best show ever created.

Happy Thanksgiving from @uofdigital.bsky.social! KnowledgeIsGobble 🦃

Jafar on a zoom call. Because.

At cafe yesterday w 4yo twins. At some point, daughter starts talking to elderly woman in wheelchair. My mom uses a wheelchair, so daughter is interested in them. Later woman is wheeled away and daughter waves goodbye. 4yo son turns to me and says "Soon you will be old." The End.

Aston Martin ad in my LinkedIn inbox 🤷‍♂️

I guess I'm glad to know that the latest D-grade Alien sequel is available to stream, but this branding is really off. Why should the Disney logo ever appear next to a drooling xenomorph?

Looks like the illustration for "WHERE NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU SCREAM" by Shel Silverstein

"Consultans." That's wonderful copy. I can just picture the Consultan now: resplendant in his silken finery, unfurling for the client stakeholders a great woven Gantt chart, decorated with precious jewels and the most delicate of project dependencies.

Thank goodness. They read my letters.

TIL that apparently I can't use Photoshop to generate a 100% transparent PNG? In other words: an empty image where every pixel's alpha channel is set to zero. It just...won't let me export. So f*cking dumb.
