It actually looks pretty good to me, I'm on the hunt so I'll give it a shot lol.

Basically zero effort/intelligence compared to a lot of these, but the business wanted backup records from our CMS (of sorts), because they were gun shy of catastrophic losses after spending like 250 human hours on manual entry the las

I had no idea nuclear power had been miniaturized to this extent, wow.

Right? If it can't react, how is it any different than cruise control?

I didn't really read it as him having an obsession with beating her— It struck me more that this was his reckoning with the inevitable regression of his own cognition, in the context of comparison to the developing cognition of his dau

Great, now we gotta figure out what a "bodybuilder" is!

Oh man, so this was relatively recent no less. Hopefully you did!

> give anything to replace macOS with Linux (or even Windows) I agree that this was a fair, measured post, but I find it bizarre that a Linux enthusiast would ever want to replace their Mac OS with Windows when the biggest complaint is..

that is almost cartoonishly nightmarish

This is great— I have envisioned and even considered making this exact thing myself before. I'll definitely be using this, thank you.

The idea is because it's happening at scale. If you're getting hundreds or thousands of customers per day, the likelihood of this happening gets lower by some statistical proportion, especially if you don't have the organic e

You are totally correct, thank you— I addressed this to jjulius above, since they pointed out the same thing. Sometimes one must be reminded not to be flippant on the internet, it's all too easy, and I don't want to be that person

No you're right, as someone who takes these things seriously, I should hold myself to a higher standard than to paint in such broad strokes. Thanks for checking me there. Allow me to rephrase from a more compassionate perspective: I do

Thanks for adding this— I definitely failed in my explanation by not talking about how one runs such tests.

My major failure in this thread was not specifying from that start that I'm not so much talking about paid search ads (google ads), as much as I mean FB, YouTube, etc. That's the arena where you've really gotta question if yo

While you're not necessarily wrong, the distinction lies in how many people see you organically. If I get 100 organic impressions/day, and then spend $N to get 500/day, I'm speeding the process up, and nearly guaranteein

You're right, this is actually a lot harder to recently, with the iOS updates that occurred a year or so ago. It's a space that evolves very quickly. But this is a good place to point out that, yes - there is nuance to all of this

I'll just reference my other replies to the first part here, but thank you for that link too. I'll have to give it a read when I have more time later today

I agree that only conversions matter, but you should be able to track whether a customer originated from an ad click vs. SEO, whether they clicked one ad and had 4 sessions since, etc. While it's not a perfect system, you should know w

by tetsusaiga 4y ago
I appreciate your thoughtful criticism of this. The reason I say this though, is because if they knew how to run ads properly they would have been tracking their results from the start, and would have known much earlier whether they were ge

>In the end I decided the only real way to tell if what we were doing was working, was to turn it all off, for several months to see if there was a measurable difference. What? If this person genuinely thinks that there is no way to me

by tetsusaiga 4y ago
Exactly, all this does is prove they never knew how to run ads to begin with. It never ceases to amaze me how many people/businesses have no idea what performance advertising is.
