Apologies to American and Canadian travelers, the airlines, and the relevant regulatory agencies. I didn’t realize naming my new airstrip “; drop table airports;” would create so much chaos.

Quick. You're in a meeting and this is presented. What's your takeaway?

Party City filing for bankruptcy… goes to my theory that no retail with physically dirty or chaotic stores can survive.

It makes me very uncomfortable to ask for things but i'm going to do it anyway. My buddy @randyzwitch at @ZwitchGuitars is close to 1,000 subs on YouTube. 1,000 subs unlocks A LOT of value for a brand. Check out his channel and consider subscribing 🙏🏼 youtube.com/@zwitchguitars

I love it when an agency/vendor asks to install their own GTM container on a website that already has one implemented. Me: We/our client is getting full admin access to that container right? Them: No. Me: Try again.

so what if we just ... didn't use the GA4 UI? - data is in BQ - looker studio offers more control over how dimensions/metrics are (mis)used anyone have experience with this kind of arrangement? pros/cons? maybe a blog post?

ChatGPT is going to massively change everyone’s lives. Other classic Twitter misreads: Twitter is going to die as everyone is moving to Mastodon. The Chicken Sandwich from Popeyes is a good fast food chicken sando. Invest heavily in Cryptocurrency.

Every person I know working on recommender systems was asked like “when do you use Jaccard versus cosine similarity” during their interviews and spends about 65% of their time doing Airflow.

I think a lot of what’s happening in the data space right now is explained by looking through the lens of “data engineer” vs “analytics engineer”. Each has a different (but overlapping) set of tools/skills/responsibilities. I’m not convinced “analytics engineers” need to exist.

I know this sounds crazy… But with $PTON at ~$2.5B, there is serious opportunity in the space to take it private and make some strategic acquisitions to consolidate luxury fitness/endurance brands. We are in the middle of a demographic global tidal wave in this space.

$PTON + @wahoo (private) + @PolarGlobal (same) + @tonal (same) + @Strava (same) + @cervelo/@trek (bikessss) + @hoka or other non-@on_running shoe company (holding company) + @IRONMANtri (same) + apparel/accessories. Synergy for days. If you want to help me raise, LFG!

Final point: all of these brands are/will be heavily involved in developing applications for the “metaverse”… a big piece of AR/VR’s future will be fitness-related, much more so than virtual work meeting spaces. Their technology ecosystems are, at best, fractured.
