Investors are too stupid to see what's going on. Have you seen the ad load (the amount of realestate used by ads) in a search results page? It has gone through the roof. It used to be a typical Google search ad was: title, 2 lines of t

For some reason, this reminds me of how we used to give instructions to Indian coders in the 90s and early 2000s. You would have to spell out everything. What you got back was nearly there, but some back-and-forth was involved. This brings
