#Garmin #Navionics putting boaters at risk! Gov’t navigation charts now have an ad for a Boston fishing tournament. It covers up a nav aid by rocks. This isn’t just gross—it’s dangerous.

@BigSodaBuck imgur.com/a/caption-cont… This photo was the banner image in an @Cybertruck marketing email i received from @Tesla today. Seems like it's begging for a caption contest.

The President is hosting a live car sale commercial in front of the White House (in violation of the Hatch Act) to further subsidize plummeting Telsa stock, because Cybertruck demand is nonexistent, because people don’t like nazi salutes, because they are not good.

Sonos has an amazing brand. But a failing app to control the product. Brand is not the only thing that matters. #advertising #digitalmarketing #programmatic #omnichannel #marketing #media #marketingstrategy #excellence #sonos

@ilyasut @sama @gdb @miramurati New office at @xAI??

After almost a decade, I have made the decision to leave OpenAI.  The company’s trajectory has been nothing short of miraculous, and I’m confident that OpenAI will build AGI that is both safe and beneficial under the leadership of @sama, @gdb, @miramurati and now, under the excellent research leadership of @merettm.  It was an honor and a privilege to have worked together, and I will miss everyone dearly.   So long, and thanks for everything. I am excited for what comes next — a project that is very personally meaningful to me about which I will share details in due time.

@sama New office at @xAI??

Ilya and OpenAI are going to part ways. This is very sad to me; Ilya is easily one of the greatest minds of our generation, a guiding light of our field, and a dear friend. His brilliance and vision are well known; his warmth and compassion are less well known but no less important. OpenAI would not be what it is without him. Although he has something personally meaningful he is going to go work on, I am forever grateful for what he did here and committed to finishing the mission we started together. I am happy that for so long I got to be close to such genuinely remarkable genius, and someone so focused on getting to the best future for humanity. Jakub is going to be our new Chief Scientist. Jakub is also easily one of the greatest minds of our generation; I am thrilled he is taking the baton here. He has run many of our most important projects, and I am very confident he will lead us to make rapid and safe progress towards our mission of ensuring that AGI benefits everyone.

@toastmax @jasonfried @Patrick_Spence Hi, John @toastmax. We apologize for the trouble you're experiencing with your Sonos system. Our team would love to assist & look further into the issues you're encountering. Please send us a DM at your earliest convenience w/ the email address associated with your Sonos account.

What do they got? A big team, lots of money, a strong brand, seemingly unlimited resources, panache, reputation, all that. They’re established. They’re your competitors. You want to look away, but you see them everywhere. Their ads on your social, their name in the media, your dream clients on their website. But you know what else they got? Bigger company bloat. Overflowing obligations. Narratives to uphold. Appearances to maintain. Entitlement. Too much overhead. They’re slow. They’re conservative. They talk too much. They’ve stopped taking risks. They’re resting on their laurels, gliding on their reputation. They’re on defense. What they’ve really got is a lot to lose. What do you got? Hunger. Drive. Grit. Scrappiness. Independence. You’re on offense. You don’t have enough, which is why you’re dangerous. You have no choice but to be clever and creative. To make up for what you don’t have with something they can’t have: The underdog spirit. You can move. You can adjust. You can adapt. You can get it done while they’re still stuck deciding what to do. Small is not a stepping stone. Small is not less than. It’s greater than. It’s faster than. It’s better than. Savor your position. You don’t get to be the underdog forever. The baton will be passed. But for now, it’s your magic wand. Use it. We stand with the underdogs.

@VICENews @GoogleAdManager Maybe it's time to find another success story #vice

@Sonos @Patrick_Spence What #sonos and @Patrick_Spence don't understand is that customers will sacrifice sound quality for reliability and ease-of-use. After being a loyal Sonos customer for years, I'm saying goodbye.

@Sonos @Patrick_Spence #sonos executives @Patrick_Spence it's great that you have this sound chamber but your company is in trouble because loyal customers are having a bad experience. #sonos speaker network reliability D- App UI C- Customer support F

Get a glimpse inside the anechoic chamber at our acoustics lab. This space is designed to remove any echo from the room, allowing our audio engineers to hear the faintest of details when testing our speakers.

@the_logic @Patrick_Spence @dskok #sonos executives @Patrick_Spence I hope you see this Tweet. Your company is in trouble because loyal customers are having a bad experience. After many years of frustration with Play 3 and Play 5, Im going with another solution. Life's too short to waste time with #sonos.
