    @NJBeisner The broken tail light is pretty easy to fix yourself. Buy a new one from Amazon and watch a YouTube video on how to change it.

    Jack Metalle (@Jacktalksmeta) reported

    Incentivized reviews broke the old detection model. The first generation of fake reviews was easy to spot. Same-day review bursts, generic text, unverified purchases. The current generation is different. Real humans write them. They buy through verified-purchase accounts. The language is natural because a real person wrote it. The purchase is verified because a real purchase happened. Text-pattern detection was designed for the first generation. It catches the lazy fakes. It misses the funded ones. That is why Fakespot and ReviewMeta aged out. Not because they were bad tools. Because the problem they were built to detect evolved past their approach. The structural fix is not a better text filter. It is comparing what one network says to what other networks say. An incentivized reviewer on Amazon is unlikely to also post on Reddit, comment on YouTube, and write in a forum. Cross-network agreement is harder to manufacture than a single verified purchase.

    the day is coming when Amazon will ask you, "do you want your Ring footage to automatically backup on this server, and allow it to be part of our video search database? if you say yes, we'll knock $5 off your prime subscription cost"

    @stanman42069 1000%. Every big movie the last few years dies down. It's literally because they're coming out against even worse movies. Amazon is doing Heat 2. It'll make $700 million & be the talk of the town, so they'll turn it in to a franchise.

    @SteveFrenchAMZ Let Amazon talk me into selling my listings in Canada. Very quickly, i got hit with listing issues because my grocery products were not in French. Within 3 months, they closed my Canada store for non compliance. Amazon screwed it up and I took the heat. No thank you.

    @cremieuxrecueil If telling people the truth doesn’t move the needle, companies like Amazon should just say they are building a distribution center — and not reveal that the distribution center will be housing a data center. Problem solved.

    @XRPspider You saw a price, it was acceptable, all terms were met. What’s the problem? This is America. Amazon sells EASY. It was easier than price matching and leaving your house which is why you bought it. Just bc a seller arbitraged your need for easy doesn’t make Amazon wrong

    This year we’ll be passing 10 million in total sales within 5 years. Never at any time in the business have I been able to answer where exactly my money is. Especially if your business sells physical goods a lot of people can relate, your money is everywhere. Between what Amazon holds, your bank, your warehouse, your supplier…. There’s never been a centralized system that gave businesses the tools they needed to answer the one question that actually matters. Is more money really coming in than going out? The P&L says you’re profitable but the bank doesn’t feel the same. Welcome to the AI age never has it been possible to centralize your business like this. Every hour on the dot I get a report sent to me: did more money leave my business than came in, and if so, why. Where all my money is specifically. If you’re having the same issue, then centralize your business.

    @XRPspider Gonna file this one under the folder of "Things that never happened"! You went to Sam's. You paid for the Crest, then tried to make Amazon look bad. If that's the issue, cancel your membership with Prime and go shopping yourself. There, problem solved.

    About this independent media thing, a few thoughts: 1. I think the schools, and the associations, are smart to try to get a handle on this. We had nearly 200 photographers at a state final in Winston a couple years back. It was not a safe environment, and many of the new independent media people are not aware of protocols and end up being places they should not. 2. I see some areas charging up to $500 to independent media to get media passes. It's an easy way to vet, perhaps, and also possibly a money maker for schools. But I'm not sure that's the right way. Many markets are going to a 6 person minimum for independent media, with individual schools apparently vetting the lists. 3. I spoke with a state official today who believes that only independent media who are recognized by the N.C. Press Association be given clearance and that an age limit should be enforced. That would be a good step. I just don't think grabbing a camera off Amazon and walking up to the gate is the way. 4. I've heard lots of ideas, but I'd like to see a panel of administrators and NCHSAA reps convene and include 1-2 of the more seasoned independent media people and try to come up with fair ways to handle this. Hear from all sides. The bottom line is, in just about every other area of sports, college and pro, you won't find this issue. Independent media people are generally not given access. In high school it's almost become expected, and often abused. It needs a real solution.

    You're driving 65 in a 65 zone. A cop parks 30 feet off the road. His radar pings you at 50 feet away, closing at 80 feet per second. He pulls you over. Are you speeding? Almost everyone gets this wrong. The cop is bluffing. And a first-year MIT calculus lecture proves why. The trap is this. His radar measures how fast the DISTANCE between you and him is shrinking. Not how fast you're actually driving down the road. Those are two different numbers. Draw the triangle. He's 30 feet off the road. You're 50 feet away. Distance you're closing: 80 feet per second along the radar line. But that line points partly SIDEWAYS at him, not straight down the road. Your real speed is the sideways part. Work the geometry. It comes out to 100 feet per second. About 68 mph. You're speeding. Barely. The point isn't the ticket. The point is the trick that snapped most people. The number the cop measures is not the number you feel. Two speeds are moving at once. Miss the geometry, miss the real answer. The MIT professor who teaches this lecture calls it "related rates." A boring name for one of the most useful ideas in math. He hides another one in the same lecture. Take any amount of cardboard. Build the box that holds the most stuff. Turns out the answer is a 2:1 box. Twice as long as it is wide. That single ratio quietly runs every shipping container, every warehouse, every Amazon parcel in your closet. And then his deepest move. Most word problems can be solved without ever plugging in numbers. Just find the ratio. The ratio survives every change in scale. The number doesn't. That's the real lesson buried inside a first-year lecture. Numbers lie about scale. Ratios don't. If you want to understand how something works, stop asking how big it is. Ask what proportion it lives at.

    @XRPspider This is market capitalism at its purest form. Amazon advertised a price, you willingly paid that price without researching cheaper alternatives, and they provided the product as promised. Getting upset at the retail rice after the fact is a you problem

    $TEM is an actual unicorn and it is the one position where my normal valuation process completely falls apart. With any of my other positions I do a typical DCF just to get a baseline for where fair value is. It is routine. It keeps me disciplined. I have tried to do that with Tempus. You could put in twenty five to thirty percent growth with twenty to twenty five percent free cash flow margins in year ten and you will get a number that looks sensible. But that number does not accurately represent what Tempus is actually doing. I have been one of the few people to continuously talk about it while virtually every retail holder has gotten shaken out. I understand why. The price action has been brutal and when a stock moves like that people assume the business must be broken. The price will fluctuate, that is what high growth stories do, but the business itself has only improved. There is more data flowing in, more health systems connected, more pharma partners building on top of it. The thesis is stronger today than it was months ago. Most investors will miss it because they are trying to value it with the old framework especially given the lack of current profitability that will inevitably flip. It is a unique company, similar to how Amazon started selling books initially. If you valued Amazon on book sales you missed the entire story. The books were just the entry point to build the infrastructure that would run everything after. I had to learn to value it differently, similar to how you could not value Tesla initially on just earnings per car. If you looked at Tesla through the lens of a traditional automaker you could never make the math work. You had to value it as a learning system that got better and more valuable with every car it put on the road. Tempus is the same. The test is not the business. The test is how it acquires the data. The business is the intelligence layer that is being built on top of that data that becomes more indispensable every single day. You cannot capture that with a simple growth rate.

    @TankaBadanka @minty_hawk So happy hours are greedy companies squeezing consumers? This is exactly the problem with all lefty thinking: it’s through a narrow lens. Seattle lefties‘ obsession with Amazon has hurt small businesses throughout the city.
