Same experience trying to advertise an Airbnb. Went round and round with a Google ad "support consultant" as they messed up our campaign multiple times, meanwhile happily spending hundreds and getting ROI for it on Instagram.

Apparently those in the industry know all about them and advise their clients to stay away from them.

Like you I wish I knew this before they ruined our account so bad we needed to start a new pixel with an agency.


Wait, what ?

There are ads on Airbnb? As in, I am looking for a place to stay and there are ads shown to me?

I use Airbnb but I also use ublock so … I would otherwise see ads?


If you put a decent transmitter on each of those 197 dishes that will be in south africa, could it knock out satellites with the combined focused EMI?


The more general version of that question would be: Whats the closest distance it can focus to?


Isn't this an interferometer? As in, compensating for lack of focus with lots of math and some clever assumptions? I don't think you can operate it in reverse the way you can with a single optical/radio system.


Isn't that the entire point behind phased arrays[1]?

GPS and some geostationary satellites should be possible, LEO not so much as they'd be below the horizon for at leas half of the array.


I would guess later in life when your insurance agent or tax prep person find out you didn't fill out a will yet and introduces you or encourages you to have an attorney write one with you. Now your family has an attorney! That or going through a family estate.


Amazing. He was 25 and had just passed his state exam when he did that. Seems like it caused him some strife in his career for a while.


Especially for unsecured debt!


Reduced to $25 million, to be clear.


You should probably seek out a therapist or psychiatrist, you seem to be having a crisis of some sort.


you too should start thinking for yourself, like I said to cycrutchfield above.

it will improve your way below average brain.


Even further, Americans are so heavily marketed on junk food we don't know what is what. We're told that fruit is a sugary treat, bananas are 'belly fat food', and I have no idea how to cook beans to make them interesting to eat. (Not that I have tried or thought about it recently - I'm sure I could with a minute of applied brain time)

Meanwhile sugary cereals like Heritage Flakes, and honey loaded granolas are what we think is healthy.


And humidifying in the process


Signing up to work with a small company there is always a known risk. That's why almost every b2b sales pitch I've seen includes some slide about how big the company is and its plans to continue growing, to convince you it's not a risk.
