NYC Imported an entirely different voting base...they all want communism...Kathy Hochul told those who don't like it to leave so they did However, rather than encouraging the "Newcomers" to become producers who can pay for all of their communist nonsense, she is begging for people to return Where is the encouragement for those people to become producers like those who left NYC were? So instead of saying "ok all of you newcomers, time to step up and produce so we can tax the hell out of you" she is trying to convince the producers who left to come back... Welcome to Communism

Whats really Ironic about the Kathy Hochul Begging for Millionaires to come back to NYC is that in her Victory Speech after she defeated Lee Zeldin in 2022 she told people that didn't like her Policies to "Get Out of Here, We Don't Need You Here" And they did...and it turns out yes you did need them there..

I did a whole-house toxin health assessment, where a guy spent half a day testing our house's air quality, water, EMFs, lighting, mold, and household products. So many surprises: - Our Waterdrop reverse-osmosis water filter seems to be introducing a chemical (Dichloromethane) into our drinking water that wasn't in the (whole-house filtered) tap water. Will recheck this to make sure it's not a fluke. - Even though we have air purifiers in many parts of the home, they weren't on the proper setting so our air quality was not great. Turned them all up higher. - Most of our light bulbs have blue light and super high flicker rates which disrupt circadian rhythms. Replacing a bunch of them. - The wifi router in my office is EMF'ing the sh*t out of me. Going to move it to a different part of the room. - The powerstrip under our bed is EMF'ing the sh*t out of us. Getting a grounded power strip that avoids this. - Some of our shampoos and soaps had harmful ingredients. On the plus side, no gas leaks or carbon monoxide 👌 I'm predicting this is going to become the next microplastics-type trend, to test your home for toxins and harmful products.

@ArthurB google got rid of domains, which existed and worked, was synergistic with cloud offering, and shutting it down heightened people’s awareness of platform risk with them. not sure they’re in the business of expanding their saas offerings because its easier to develop

Part of the reason NYC is expensive is everything free becomes immediately over crowded and terrible Equinox doesn't need to make their gyms proportionally nicer to charge $300 a month, simply charging $300 a month is the utility

This is absolutely shameful. Agents of a federal agency unnecessarily escalating, and then executing a defenseless citizen whose offense appears to be using his cell phone camera. Every person regardless of political affiliation should be denouncing this.

Last week I found out my current job is coming to an end. It's the third time I'll be unemployed in the last few years. I was born to build and the suffering of working for large, inefficient, highly political organizations has taken its toll.

Today I found out, there is only one line of code I have to add in my app for @RevenueCat to track my Search Ad campaigns. I know I am always late lol! Oh, I also finally upgraded to Pro from Legacy Starter. For a brief second, I was like hmm 0.8% to 1%, should I? ;)

@ivesparrowai @seraleev i was thinking this had to do with the fact ASA is adding multiple ad results per search page and this field lets you know more details about that placement in the conversion?

@seraleev as I understand it, this is a minor change - an additional API field that shows which placement the interaction/conversion came from

🚨 Apple Ads are becoming more transparent and easier to optimize What changed? Apple is adding a new supplyPlacement field to the AdServices Attribution API (starting January 27, 2026). This means attribution will now clearly show where exactly the ad was shown. Simply put: you’ll know the exact ad placement

@loverofapps @RevenueCat also make sure to set up the integration per app in the integrations section! there’s also a really good integration with @SplitMetrics that you can track ROAS with just @RevenueCat and by connecting your apple account to split metrics. can tell you even at a keyword level ROAS

The new trend seems to be people showing a single feature app making $400K, like an alarm app or an affirmation app or a faxing app, and claiming how easy it is to build a utility app studio. The truth is that you cannot, and do not want to, compete against the big Turkish app studios. Or, to be fair, against other non Turkish single app companies like Alarmy at their own game. Monkey Taps , Spanish co, started back in 2014. They created an ecosystem of apps that goes after extremely competitive keywords, smart acquisition strategies, solid viral features, and ends up dominating a category that is nearly impossible to break into + their cross selling ecosystem, with scale, lets them consistently outcompete others in the Meta CPI/CPM game.l never beat their effective CPMs. Even an app like Alarmy probably has over 50+ employees, and most of them are performance marketing.

In 2026 my main goal is to build an app studio with 8-12 apps Like this one making over $500k/mo Each app is the same thing Just a different focus. This is how you build a $50M/arr studio

So I feel a bit of an obligation to address the elephant in the room, because admitting you’re experimenting with AI as an artist these days feels a bit like telling your mom that you’ve started smoking cigarettes or something... First off, I’ve come to accept that AI is here, it is evolving at breakneck speed, it will infiltrate many parts of our lives, and I think ignoring this and just deciding that “AI is bad” is a bit naive and too simplistic for my taste, and is a surefire way to ensure that I’m left in the dust as it starts being more widely integrated into every industry across the globe. AI is, as a technology, as revolutionary as the internet and I feel like it’s my professional responsibility as an allegedly-soon-to-be-replaced-working-artist to learn as much as possible about how it works so I can understand A) how to take advantage of its powers to stay relevant in the ever-evolving field of motion graphics design and B) learn what it does poorly and exploit its weaknesses to help me stand out and also find meaning as an artistic human in an exponentially expanding ocean of AI outputs. So in the same way that I learned how to use Octane Render in 2018 to stay relevant as a 3D motion designer, I’ve been experimenting with AI tools over the last few years (as you’ve seen in a handful of my posts), and wanted to share some food for thought to other artists who are also dealing with this Great Confrontation. To “traditional artists” who feel that AI art is not art with such blind monkey rage that you cannot help but enlighten us with your lizard-brain knee-jerk reaction of “this is dogshit” on every AI post you see: I promise you that you will be a much happier person once you finally take the time to realize that AI art is in fact art, just a different kind of art, maybe something closer to photography or directing, and one that is maybe just not for you (which is totally ok), and that it is fine to just ignore it and carry on doing the art that you like instead of going out of your way to put down yet another artist in a desperate attempt to convince yourself that AI is some passing fad. On the other hand, to you AI artists who believe that you personally will “disrupt Hollywood” and gleefully mock traditional artists for not understanding that you too are a real big-boy artist just like them: please for the love of god try to fathom the years of meticulous practice and patience and dedication it takes to learn how to draw or paint or develop any sort of actual technical skill to proficiency, and understand that the 1000 images you told Midjourney to make in a dopamine-fueled binge one afternoon don’t really put you on the same playing field as someone who’s made actual sacrifice for their craft. All I'm trying to say is: it’s futile to reduce this to a black and white issue because I think AI art is something of a spectrum, with raw text-to-image having about as much artistic value as doing a Google image search (you put in the words for what you wanna see, and the pictures come out) which, personally, is not enough for me to feel like it’s me making the images. I think AI art is only artistic as much as you put yourself into it, and I don’t really see an issue with having a creative idea and using AI as a tool to help you build the pieces you need in order to make the greater vision come to life. With that said, please enjoy these stupid majestic AI pomeranians from the last video. For whatever reason it makes them all slow motion, so I wanted to show them off in a nice clear loop since they go by too fast to appreciate in the other video. Did I “make” these assets? I don’t really feel comfortable saying I did. I think AI did too much of the heavy lifting. But I feel like I made something out of the pieces. Still doesn’t feel the same as drawing people on the train though.

@xwanyex how are you checking apnea events overnight? o2 ring? following along. i have mild apnea and cpap is overkill and i feel it wakes me more than my apnea, maybe could lose 10 lbs but had sleep study when i was more fit. have one of those MAD devices which I notice helps but hurts

Update on my quest to address obstructive sleep apnea by buying every cheap Chinese gadget on the market instead of just accepting that I should wear a CPAP: I bought a plastic ball that clips to the back of your shirt and forces you back to your side. This is effective on the theory that many people have positional sleep apnea that makes it most difficult for them to breathe when they’re on their back. I have only used this product for one night, but it had the largest impact of any intervention so far, reducing my number of apnea events by about half.

Once again, I struggle to understand how we have chocolate. I mean, someone saw this fruit & thought "Fruit is usually yummy, I should eat it." They opened it up & saw a glob of mucus covered pods thar are—from my understanding—sweet & slightly citrusy but look like a giant booger. That person then said "You know what, I should ferment these for a while! And then I should just let them sit there for a week or so to let them dry and get all crusty. You know what would work after that? ROASTING them! Probably should break them down into little nibs, too. Ah, then I probably should grind them into dust! Oh, I should add milk and sugar too!" How we got from point a to point b just baffles me.

"In basketball, this is called the Hot Hand Fallacy. A player makes a bunch of shots in a row. People are sure they’re gonna make the next one." Thank you so much for using a gender neutral pronoun to refer to the basketball player in that hypothetical scenario. I could have been visualizing a male or a female, we just don’t know.
