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)

If by "bad" you mean some sweet-ass mobile display ad arb then yes it's pretty bad.

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!)

AI agents for marketing are inevitable, and there is a simple reason why Some thoughts on Anthrologic, a new venture launched by some of my ex-Media.Monks colleagues.

Nice of you to say.

Wrote that in 2022...

I would certainly add in 2025 that there will be a strong "pull" demand for AI tools (models, agents, etc) to help satisfy marketers' infinite (and as-yet unmet) appetite for performance from martech.

The bar gets lower all the time with parents left holding the bag. Thankfully my kids go to a small private school run by a sensible person and in recent years I haven't had to deal with as much of this as many parents.

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.

I'm all about posting the family minutiae alongside the tech stuff.

For one thing, it's always helped me know who I should bother interacting with. The lame-o's don't post weird little family updates while the awesome people are all about it.

The Trade Desk Is Acquiring Advertising Metadata Startup Sincera | AdExchanger The Trade Desk announced its plan to buy Sincera, a startup that aggregates and supplies metadata to ad tech companies.

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.

Defining "scam" in the context of blockchain is like defining "alcoholism" in the context of bars that open at 6am.

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.

Altamont Free Concert - Wikipedia

I think they did security for a lot of Bay Area concerts in that era. There was the infamous incident where they beat a fan to death during a Stones concert at Altamont Speedway.
