Makes sense. That was just my ideal, obviously I can be flexible for convenience if it's close enough. Any insights into whether you'll be carrying other roasters? I'm a big fan of Verve, Chromatic, and a few others from the

I'm trying to understand if I'm your target audience, maybe you can help. I make espresso at home and primarily enjoy premium roasters. By my spreadsheet logs I average ~39 espresso shots/mo, or ~2.1 bags/mo assuming an

And let's not forget the harder-to-quantify but very important negative impact that has had on trust in the Amazon brand.

For Elite: Dangerous fans, what's the current best bet for a VR setup if one doesn't have 4 USB ports? Is there even an option? I got a gaming laptop right as the first VR headsets were coming out, and I'm just at the cusp of

Interesting. We share a lot of frustrations and challenges. What sort of spend levels and data volumes do you typically need to see for the lift studies you do with TV and CTV? Do you typically isolate to specific markets for that?

That seems like something you may have a decent chance or redlining, particularly if it is a competitive offer, no?

It's funny but sometimes I feel like I spend as much time doing reporting as someone as when I was entry level. The difference is sometimes my team isn't able to run these reports or I'd rather they focus on other things.

This is the approach I often take. I'm paid to be an expert and have answers. If the situation has multiple paths, it is on me to weigh those with the context I have and be prepared to adapt when I inquire about other considerations I

As a marketer who came up on the performance side, I feel your pain. What would you say the state of analytics is on that side of things? Is attribution sufficiently advanced to get some read on the impact of various influences, celeb and P

They'd actually somewhat recently taken steps to reduce the number of posts, and instead push advertisers to bid more for fewer impressions. If successful, this has the impact of getting them more revenue with a better UX since there a

Thanks for the great link. I'm saving to read the whole thing later, but wanted to point out that a variation of forum sliding (or possibly another tactic, haven't read it all) appears to be in use on Reddit. The amount of noise f

Serious question--how does one verify the security and privacy of something like NoRoot Firewall? It wants: - have full network access - view network connections - run at startup That's a pretty serious list of permissions to consider

I'd argue things have become more consumer-hostile, not friendly. Ease of use should not be conflated with policies that restrict users from doing what they want with their devices because they "no longer own them" or force b

I tried Blinkist and have been disappointed. I tried a few of the daily freebies to see if it would educate and engage me to a degree that snack sized blog posts did not. Mostly it failed, and I still came away with that empty feeling of re

I'd wager you are correct that if it were required, nobody would comment on it except existing Reddit users familiar with their more privacy-respecting leanings from their past (ie. not new users). The dark pattern is that there is zer

Interesting. How much oil should I use for a 9" pan? Looks like 170-180 is below the smoking point of any oils I'd potentially use, but does the actual oil matter? Is vegetable, canola, or peanut totally fine?

How do you refinish a lodge skillet? Someone accidentally used the rough side of a sponge on it and there's a shiny metal peeking through now. Also, is it safe to cook with before refinishing with that spot?

Following eyeballs and good ROI do not always go hand-in-hand. In my dream world I'd love to see a more granular ARPU breakdown and how much of that came from growth in ad impressions/user vs. increased CPMs for advertisers as wel
