@alexcrdean @snowplow @poplindata @digdeep Congratulations guys! The Poplin team and their tools are a great asset to Snowplow (even before the acquisition).

So @snowplow has acquired Sydney-based @poplindata and launched our APAC Operating Hub!🇦🇺 So excited to have Mike, Simon, @digdeep and the team onboard 🌏 businesswire.com/news/home/2023…

@lukasoldenburg What's the event volume like? How are you hosting enrichment and storing the data to query? (Been years since I looked at Piwik)

I did the test: Migrated a semi-complex #GoogleAnalytics 3 client to #PiwikPRO incl. #LookerStudio Dashboards. It works really well, the data is sound, and there is no added complexity or tech overhead like with the typical workarounds needed to cope w/ the #GA4 limitations.

@salty_TheSack @CosmoJenkinz @RichardHeartWin His bottom call was $14k iirc. We're still pretty far from that.

@CosmoJenkinz @RichardHeartWin He will just randomly tweet about btc every few days and one will be a bottom call for sure

#Bitcoin When next leg up? #BTC

@balloob This is why I'm just beginning to recommend Home Assistant to non-techy friends and those who are time poor. I feel UX + hardware could spur an inflexion point.

@Iwearbear @golfpepe @k_odcy @cyberbrew1 @MDTaps @LayahHeilpern Option 2 of course plays out, but at what cost and how feasible is a fix if the funds are conjoined/spent rapidly? Bitcoin's monoculture of node/software implementations means an inflation bug may not immediately fork the chain, so we're reliant on devs to fix it... Slowly.

@golfpepe @k_odcy @cyberbrew1 @MDTaps @LayahHeilpern If a flaw in a system is fatal it has 2 choices: 1. Die 2. Fork and survive. These instances you bring up are not an example of failure of POW to secure the protocol, it is just common sense game theory. The option to '1. Die' is a redundant non-choice. Therefore 2. plays out

If you still think #bitcoin is bad for the environment you haven’t done your research.

@jamescallaghan The CO/boiler automation is very interesting. Did you have any alternatives you were considering if Nest couldn't integrate with HA?

🤓 More ideas and details can be found here👇🏼 github.com/jcallaghan/hom…

Huge kudos to @iMicknl & co for his Nest Protect integration 🙏🏼 I was starting to think @home_assistant would never see my Nest Protects but with this integration I can finally access information from them and more importantly trigger automations in the event of a problem!

@marketsensei I didn't see where experiments affected by SRM were removed - Did you explore this? It would have been interesting to see the rate of SRM errors contributing to FDR. #what-is-sample-ratio-mismatch" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">lukasvermeer.nl/srm/docs/faq/#…

How are effects of online A/B tests distributed? How often are they not significant? Does achieving significance guarantee meaningful business impact? We answer these questions in our new paper, “False Discovery in A/B Testing”, recently out in Management Science >>

@Jimalytics @AnalyticsNinja We managed to get a media company to refund $7k spent on a fraudulent publisher. It was all coming through one or two useragents and IPs. Bring with you 1) solid proof and; 2) the threat of losing future ad spend.

@AnalyticsNinja Thanks man - it's gotten way worse, from what I hear. Haven't completely validated. I'm 100% certain media folks will just ignore it

If you want to get ahead of my LinkedIn post tomorrow, here's an article that will be criminally ignored by the people who should actually be taking it seriously: jimalytics.com/industry/youre…

@RichardHeartWin You should split test it. Opinions won't tell you what converts better, only people voting with their wallets will.

Should it replace what's on the main site now?

What say ye about this new HEX main website? hexpreview.xyz

@AnalyticsNinja *Laughs in Snowplow*

pffff...

@AnalyticsNinja Israel is the 9th most expensive place to buy petrol! statisticstimes.com/economy/countr…

The prices he is quoting are per gallon, not per liter. Some quick internet searches show that in most countries, most people pay more than twice that amount. Current avg price in Israel is $7.39 per gallon.

@Matt_Jelen Crazy that's in spite of the harsh lockdown... Makes you wonder what we'd be ranked if we were as lucky with covid as Sydney/Brisbane.

Wow! Melbourne in the top 10 again!

@lopp RM Williams boots. Still Australian-made. Had a pair for 10yrs, taken hiking, running and as general daily beaters. About time to upgrade now.

What are your favorite 10X goods and services - those that may cost 10X the average brand, but offer far higher quality?

@JugalLodaya @BitcoinErrorLog @Breedlove22 It's a good idea... And what you're suggesting already exists on layer two: bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/6970…

@BitcoinErrorLog @Breedlove22 This sounds like a paradox... If everyone agrees that 1 unit is worth $1, and we add 3 decimals, then in the fork $1 is equal to 1000 units. We would come up with a better name like milli-satoshi or similar. But once we've pegged value to bitcoin, decimalizing it further is ok.

The way to fix the unit bias thing with Bitcoin is to rename “sats” to “bits.” I don’t know if we can make it happen, but I believe it would work better.

@hashflownetwork Hey guys, your telegram link is broken on your email opt-in page. Looking forward to the invites!

Happy Sunday #hashflowers! HUGE, warm welcome to *all* our new members who joined in the last few days... it's been incredible to see all the excitement 🥳 🎉 We're still aiming to roll out the first cohort of invites early next week. Hang tight :)

@AnalyticsNinja They must be practising self-imposed ITP. 👍

okay microsoft teams, why do I have to select a microphone and speaker every single time. can't you remember my preferred settings?

@balloob **People live streaming themselves sleeping on the internet** -> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ twitch.tv/opazbankshot

@balloob They've removed the fun part where you write YAML though... (not even sarcastic)

@brad_frost 1. Circadian rhythm light colours 2. Sunrise soft light alarm 3. Lights managed by presence / motion / media playing / meetings / phone calls 4. Home Assistant

If you were moving into a new place, what smart home features would you set up (if any)?
