I am still not sure how Apple continues to justify minor Siri improvements on yearly iOS upgrade schedule. Siri needs to be always improving, continuously learning. It might already be, but rarely visible.
Thoughts
I run Google Analytics today on my site. I really need not run any Analytics on my site.
I think I will remove all the Analytics from my site. I rarely check what they analyse anyway.
Been so long I have been away from writing anything. I think that sort of phase when consumption gains mind share. And then one drifts into a slack blob chomping mindlessly on anything that comes your way. I hate these phases.
Browsers continue to make mockery of the web standards. Just look at the behaviour of autocomplete on input fields in different browsers. No consistency at all.
Come’on SRH, no less than 160 to defend. Make #IPL2018Final worth the 4 hours.
I hate the continuous scrolling paradigm adopted by many websites (Quartz, Venture Beat) today to move you to next articles. That’s a sleezy little hack to gain more reads/clicks — and so more ad impressions.
So much potential in world is wasted on plotting best ads placement.
Planning a family vacation is not easy. So many parameters to think of.
The seduction of access to privileged (non-public) data is irresistible. Prioritizing data because it’s exclusive is the pitfall that all analysts must resist.
Horace Dediu has a very valuable advice for his fellow analysts.
Google gets even more interested in podcasts now. Currently, they look primarily focused on improving the podcast discovery plus streaming experience.
However, I feel soon that will shift to recording and publishing podcasts too. YouTube Audio. With Google Audio ads.
When @bradyharan first referenced his new podcast, about all the podcasts that aren’t made, on one of the episodes of Hello Internet, I wasn’t sure the premise would be fun. But man, The Unmade Podcast is a must listen — go subscribe now, it’s full of fun ideas.
