    This is a wonderful gold mine for data geeks. The real question to me is why Netflix is releasing this. It's a massive boon for their competitors. My instinct is they either were h…

    Incentives guide everything in medicine and it's really unfortunate. Even the best meaning doctors get pushed in that direction. See x patients a day for y minutes. X goes up 10% a…

    Agreed. The more SMB your product is the closer the chance ads will work, but further up the size and ACV scale and you are simply wasting your time until you become a brand name i…

    I think it's hard for people to appreciate just how much human behavior is driven by those fields.

    These articles typically come in the form of, I was paying for my brand name when I was number one on organic search. I wasn't validating any of my other ad spend, I stopped and di…

    This is brutal. No easy answers here. The affiliate economy is rife with spam and will continue to deteriorate. My recommendation to content creators is to become explicitly ad sup…
