One of my least-favorite clickbait trends of the past 5 years is big creators claiming "I achieved XYZ only working 2 hours per day." Aside from the fact that it's a blatant lie—every person who says that is a workaholic—it also...
For artists in search of perfect content to increase their engagement, views, online profiles, fan bases, help them sell more art, or reach whatever goals they're striving for, there is no quick fix. Nothing happens all at once. Isolated posts...
On landmark Meta and Google child harm verdicts, it’s critical to note this isn’t a one-off. It’s been 10+ years of prioritizing profits over people. Massive surveillance advertising + monopoly businesses. Cambridge Analytica. Data leakage. Search + adtech monopolies. Recidivism.
Cleaning up Threads accounts I followed back in the day... Most of the people I initially followed no longer post here. For ex AOC has 2m followers here, didn't post anything in 3 years. But she's actively posting on X, where she has...

The skid row content house is about to blow up mark my words... influencers are descending on egg god and co.
Quite a pair of stories on Wall Street Journal right now. Is Facebook hacking newsroom’s attention? https://t.co/MD1Z3Gr8Lv
Remember when X started showing the location of accounts and everyone found out that a bunch of pro-Trump influencers were actually based in other countries? Now the company says it's changing up its revenue sharing program so people will only...

OpenAI is retiring Sora, or as it will forever be remembered… …just kidding it will not be remembered.
I find it weak for any tech press to provide anonymity to a Facebook “spokesperson” to question the jury verdict when (likely the same) spokesperson is on Twitter boasting about it only being a $375 million fine. Print that. I’ll...
