  • part of the idea is that clicking every ad presented destroys the ad system’s ability to do meaningful targetting. I’m happy about that. Without the data collection and analysis performed by Google, Amazon, and Meta, advertising through them is less attractive to advertisors.

    Most of the advertisors are lying garbage too. I have no sympathy for them.

    I was lucky enough to witness his jumps in 1988. Later, driving down the highway in Calgary, we pulled up behind the Jamaican bobsled team, with their sled, riding in the back of a pickup. Took a picture. Mostly forgot about it.

    It was neat at the time, but had no idea how famous they would both become.
