Joe Lim estimates that 90 percent of what you see on the internet is advertising in disguise, and he should know. For three years, Lim ran a company called Floodify, which at its peak operated 65,000 dummy social-media accounts used to drum up attention on behalf of paying clients. The point of this kind of marketing is that nobody is supposed to notice it. But lately, the machinery has started to show. In April, Justin Bieber headlined two consecutive weekends at Coachella. Coachella is the biggest stage in pop music save only for the Super Bowl, the kind of event that in theory generates its own attention. And yet on both weekends, a Discord server writer Lane Brown had been monitoring hosted paid campaigns for Bieber’s Coachella performances, offering clippers — people who are hired to turn a song, trailer, interview, stump speech, or whatever into short, social-media-friendly fragments — as much as a dollar per thousand views. “On social media, popular opinion is being formed, measured, and manipulated all at once, and every signal the platforms produce — a trending song, a backlash, a talking point, the feeling that ‘everybody’ is suddenly talking about the same thing — can now be fabricated by unseen actors with hidden agendas,” writes Brown. “Everybody is doing this now,” Lim says. “And if you’re not, you’re behind.” Brown reports on how the same techniques are now being used to fool people on every app they go to in order to find out what other people think, not just in music but across entertainment, politics, consumer products, and celebrity gossip: nymag.visitlink.me/w6Bu9N

There are days that something so incredible could happen it’s hard to imagine. And then you have to remind yourself to keep your feet on the ground. Ya ain’t there yet .

The “spice” in Dune is so humans can do the tasks machines used to do before they were outlawed because of AI. Just incredible foresight in a 1965 novel.

@ohhellodan In our Crossing Over Express pitch deck we basically say it's Field of Dreams meets Edward Scissorhands and now I'm realizing both of these should probably be in my Top 10. Def Top 20.

Top 10 also changes all the time but gun to my head at this exact moment? There Will Be Blood Jurassic Park Children of Men Monty Python’s Holy Grail Fargo The Taking of Pelham One Two Three The Assassination of Jesse James Titanic Dead Poet’s Society The Truman Show
Joseph Kahn@JosephKahn

My top 10 changes all the time, probably by the day. But if you put a gun to my head and said what are your 10 favorite movies of all time, and I had to spit it out immediately, this is what I just wrote (in no particular order): Road Warrior John Carpenter's The Thing Evil Dead 2 Reanimator Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom Robocop Bladerunner Drunken Master 2 Fight Club Wolf of Wall Street

The only thing you can buy with $1 billion dollars that you can’t buy with $500 million is too much power. And I guess a solid gold yatch with a matching submarine.

Don’s terrible Snowball pitch is on my mind this Mad Men rewatch. It’s never addressed on camera but Don being intimidated by Ginsberg does play out in his choice not to include Ginsberg on Heinz, a pitch that they ultimately lose.

@Fenrirtheicewo1 Pretty sure every one of these filmmakers have openly stated they were inspired by the anime’s listed.
