Podcast listening is hard to track, but that doesn’t mean advertisers aren’t trying By Adrianne Jeffries In these muddled times, at least one thing is clear: Nearly everyone’s tracking you, always. But there is one area that has been largely off-limits to digital data collectors for 20 years: podcast listening. Traditionally, the podcast ecosystem has been tracking-resistant, in part because podcasters release their shows through RSS, free technology dating back to 1999. Podcast players, also known as , like Apple Podcasts and Castro then aggregate those episodes in easy-to-use apps. Listener behavior is strewn across a plethora of apps, many of which don’t share data with anyone, including the podcast creators. podcatchers That’s all changing. Advertisers are on podcasts in 2020, and companies are devising ways to provide them with data that will persuade them to spend more. The most common tactics include using IP addresses to identify users, adding tracking URLs to ads, and abandoning RSS in favor of proprietary platforms that already track their users. projected to spend more than $800 million The change has provoked considerable debate, , within the podcasting industry. sometimes combative In September 2019, Basecamp its podcast hosting service, Art19, after discovering that the company was building the capability for personalized ads. In December 2019, Libsyn, one of the major podcast hosting services, banned Podsights, one of the major podcast data companies, , “[W]e feel it is necessary to protect listener privacy.” In February, podcasting giant PRX hosted a on “emerging threats” to privacy in order to encourage more productive discussion. Then in August, one of the major podcast apps, Overcast, a feature that lets users see which podcasts have enabled tracking. publicly dumped saying conference added “I see the storm clouds gathering,” said Michelle De Mooy, a privacy consultant who spoke at PRX’s conference. “There’s a danger that this is a moment that can change away from privacy.” Podcast listening habits, like browsing history, can potentially reveal a lot about someone’s interests. There are podcasts about mental illness, substance abuse, sexuality, debt, and other sensitive topics. So what do your podcasts know about you? Traditionally, Podcasts Couldn’t Track Much The main metric of success for most of podcasting history has been the one thing the RSS infrastructure allows: how many times the file was downloaded. It’s like the early days of the web, when websites proudly displayed a “hit counter” that tracked the raw number of visits. But the act of downloading a podcast still passes some data, and whoever hosts the file can log a download’s date and time, the podcatcher used, the IP address (which also reveals rough location), and typically, the type of device. I see the storm clouds gathering. - Michelle De Mooy, privacy consultant Advertisers, meanwhile, have tended to target listeners based on a podcast’s subject matter. If you’ve ever heard a host give out a promo code for listeners while reading an ad, it’s because that’s basically how advertisers would track which podcasts were actually driving customers. Ads were not personalized because there was no data to personalize them with, and no way to match an ad to a specific user. This could rapidly change if the podcasting industry were to ever shift away from RSS. And there are some signs of that happening. Spotify has been signing exclusive deals with megastars like Joe Rogan and Kim Kardashian West. Bloomberg that Apple is hiring an executive to lead the charge on original and exclusive podcasts, and Amazon has its first platform-exclusive podcast. reported announced Needless to say, these exclusives will likely not be available via RSS. “They are not podcasts. They’re audio shows,” said Andrew Kuklewicz, the chief technology officer of PRX. However, when the venture-capital-funded podcast network Luminary to be copying audio and rehosting it instead of using RSS, it triggered an exodus of podcasters. (Luminary clarified that it was not copying audio and was still using RSS, just rerouting traffic first.) appeared Meanwhile, as podcasts have grown and become more professional, the commercial industry around them has found ways to work around RSS’s limitations. How Are You Being Tracked Now? In 2014, the podcast “Serial” debuted, introducing the medium to mainstream listeners. (As of September 2018, “Serial” had across its first two seasons.) more than 340 million downloads That same year, Acast, a podcasting company based in Sweden, announced “dynamic ad insertion.” Previously, ads were “baked in” to a recording, but now podcasters could mark their files with ad breaks, enabling a hosting company to switch in a different ad based on the time or location the podcast was downloaded. It also paved the way for ads to be sold programmatically, based on a bidding system that automatically matches buyers and sellers without the need for salespeople. Much of the advertising on the web, including Google Ads, is bought and sold this way. Programmatic buying requires consumer data in order for advertisers to rapidly experiment with different ways to target users and optimize ads for the best results. “That’s probably when I certainly saw things start to change,” said Kuklewicz, the CTO of PRX. “Once you can actually dynamically inject ads, then that data that I’d be able to get from requests becomes actionable. And once that’s possible, then we start to look a lot like the rest of ad tech right now.” Our goal here is to make tools that will let this medium grow in general and bring more people into the space and create better content. - Andy Pellett, co-founder of Podsights Suddenly, companies on the hosting and ad tech side started to try to squeeze as much data as possible out of the limited interaction they had with listeners, using a couple of different methods: They could add an extra web address in the metadata of an ad, forcing a tiny download that allows the advertiser to register the listener’s IP address, the podcatcher they used, and usually the type of device. They could also use “prefixes” or redirects that take the user on a brief detour to another webpage so a third party can register them, similar to the way a URL shortening service like Bit.ly works. At this point, we’re still just talking about basic data. But advertisers want more granular data: Did someone listen to my ad on a podcast, and then visit my website or buy something? And what else can I learn about podcast listeners, so I can decide whom to target with my ads? Some companies, like Podsights, now collect basic data, such as IP address and device type, and combine it with information from third-party data collection companies. Podsights co-founder Andy Pellett said the company uses this data only to establish “attribution”—that the same person who listened to an ad also visited a brand’s website, for example—and does not share any data that could be used to identify listeners. “Our goal here is to make tools that will let this medium grow in general and bring more people into the space and create better content,” he said. Other companies at least advertise the ability to do more granular targeting, though it’s not clear how many podcasts actually use such services. Megaphone says that its Megaphone Targeted Marketplace, which allows automated buying and selling of ads, allows advertisers to target users by “ .” Megaphone did not respond to a request for comment. demographic and purchase intent Your Podcast Player Could Know More About You Podcatchers themselves have access to far more accurate data about users, such as the full list of podcasts a listener subscribes to and how far they listen in any given episode. Some of the smaller podcatchers, however, have emerged as bulwarks against anything potentially invasive. When Russell Ivanovic, head of product for the podcatcher Pocket Casts, heard that some analytics companies had figured out a way to place cookies on users’ devices when they downloaded a podcast, he immediately disabled the capability in Pocket Casts. “They might be doing innocent things with it, but we felt like that was like a bridge too far,” Ivanovic said. “That’s not something users are expecting.” They might be doing innocent things with it, but we felt like that was like a bridge too far. - Russell Ivanovic, Pocket Casts Companies like Spotify, Apple, Amazon, and Google, which all offer apps and devices that play podcasts, are in the best position to collect user data. These companies already have “first party” data, collected through their other services, that they can combine with someone’s podcast listening habits, as well as additional insights from the device you’ve installed them on. Spotify knows if your phone is , for example. in your hand or in your pocket Another way to collect more data would be if different layers of the ecosystem agreed to work together. National Public Radio attempted this with a project called , or RAD, essentially instructions for how podcasters and advertisers could finally measure if someone who downloaded a podcast actually listened to it, and for how long. NPR publishes lots of podcasts and also has its own podcast player, the NPR One app, giving it access to more data about how people listen. This data was used to reassure advertisers that their ads were actually getting heard, and also to tweak show formats. The creators of the show “Pop Culture Happy Hour,” for example, noticed that their listeners were dropping off in the middle of an episode. “The team was able to pivot and release episodes more frequently, but much shorter and more focused,” said Stacey Goers, senior product manager for podcasts at NPR. “And it really gives users what they wanted.” Remote Audio Data The ad server NPR uses, AdsWizz, also allows ads and stories to be swapped in and out of episodes. This enables NPR to experiment with its fund-raising campaigns as well as the content of the show. The first half of “Consider This,” for instance, is the same for everyone, but the second half comes from a station in the listener’s local area. The catch with RAD is that podcatchers also have to participate, and so far, they haven’t taken it up. “RAD has not seen a large amount of adoption,” Goers said. Part of that is because app developers would rather spend their limited resources on features that would attract new users, she said, and part of it is because of the lack of centralization. “Podcasting still doesn’t necessarily have a big governing body that’s putting its foot down and asking for it,” she said. The Changes Are Controversial—and It’s Not Clear How Widespread They Are “Ultimately if podcasts are going to grow as a media type, as they emerge, the advertisers are going to require the more granular level of tracking,” said Eric Picard, a consultant and former vice president of advertising product management at Pandora. But not everyone agrees that podcasting’s health relies on gathering more data. “That’s bullshit,” said Rob Walch, vice president of podcaster relations at Libsyn, a major hosting service that also sells ads for podcasters. “The podcasters that make the most money are the ones that are doing host-read ads that don’t do any of this. Joe Rogan makes more money podcasting with advertising than any of these people.” At least for now, podcasting is still a fairly private activity, in that it doesn’t produce much data on its own. “That’s one of the things, to be honest, that’s stunted podcast growth initially,” said Brad Smith, CEO of Simplecast, a hosting and analytics company. “Advertisers want to go where the deepest, richest data lives. And by default, you’re not going to get data out of podcasting.” Nothing has fundamentally changed, he said. “We gather the exact same information about a listening session today that we did five years ago.” Correction An earlier version of this story incorrectly identified the technology NPR uses for dynamic ad and content insertion. It is AdsWizz, not RAD. . Originally published as " When Zombie Data Costs You a Home " with the Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0) license

Podcasting for Beginners: A Complete Guide For 2020 and Beyond [Step-by-Step Guide]

Let's say you're planning to throw an awesome party. Sounds fun, right? But how will you make sure it is successful? The indicator of success can be the profit you generate by attracting a large number of attendees to the party. Additionally, you would want to ensure that attendees will return for future parties. Who do you need to work with to coordinate all of this? At a minimum, you may want to involve: Venue owner DJ Security Bartender Promo manager Designer ...and this may not be an exhaustive list. All of these individuals will have a vested interest in the successful completion of the party. However, they may not necessarily have identical needs and expectations. For instance, the venue owner may desire to generate income by renting out the space and anticipate the venue to be cleaned without any noticeable harm after the party. Meanwhile, the DJ, for instance, anticipates an audience that will value his artistic expression, and an increase in his followers on , , etc. Spotify Instagram , meaning they are parties with a vested interest in the project. → All these individuals will be your stakeholders How to categorize your stakeholders? By classifying stakeholders into different subgroups, you will be able to develop strategies around: Communications (when and how to inform) Decision-making (who and when to involve) Project work (how to cultivate ownership and engagement in the project). Typically, stakeholders are categorized based on their , , and occasionally their . interest influence behavior/attitude Let's consider, for instance, a bartender who isn't particularly concerned about the success of the party. For him, the priority is to attract a large number of attendees and receive a commission from the bar sales. Therefore, the bartender has a low interest in the overall goal and a small level of influence, as his presence or absence does not determine whether the party will take place or not. When it comes to behavior, the bartender can sometimes act as a blocker. For instance, they might refuse to work until they have an XL shaker, stating that it is impossible to work without such equipment. While they may be correct, a bartender with a more positive work attitude would make an effort to assist in finding a solution to the problem. Based on the bartender profile and using a stakeholder categorization matrix, we can create a plan outlining how we will work with them, for example: Due to low influence, we will not include the bartender in making decisions regarding the party, such as the location, DJ, etc. Due to low interest, we are unlikely to inform the bartender about all the decisions related to the party, possibly only those that concern the bar. Knowing that there may be issues with the bartender, we will try to avoid them in advance to prevent disagreements from arising a day before the event. When working with people involved in organizing the party, you will be engaged in . stakeholder management Stakeholder management is a process that helps understand the needs and expectations of interested parties and build relationships with them. This will ultimately assist in hosting a successful party. How stakeholder management is assessed during the interview process? At interviews, this skill is assessed through the following questions: Describe a situation in which you had to work with a difficult stakeholder. How did you handle it? Share a situation in which you had to convince a stakeholder to collaborate on your project (provide feedback/resources, etc.). How do you communicate with stakeholders? Have you ever faced a situation in which your management denied you resources or the opportunity to work on a new project or change the strategy? How did you persuade them? How do you manage stakeholders' expectations?

Stakeholder Management 101 – The Simplest Explanation Ever

Cryptography has been around long before modern computers and has been a great way to protect messages. When it comes to providing information while keeping it concealed from those who wish to use it for ill intentions, you need and codes to encrypt messages to keep them confidential. Back in the days of Rome and Julius Caesar, code was invented - a form of basic encryption and one of the earliest encryption algorithms in humanity’s recorded history - that would allow his messages of military significance to stay safe from prying eyes. This code was named after Julius himself and it was called the cipher. cryptography Caesar According to the Roman historian Suetonius, the cipher was used to shift three letters to create a new code to protect messages. For example, if you want to encrypt the word/letter A, you would shift three letters down the alphabet and translate that ‘A’ into the letter ‘D’ & you decrypt the letter by going three letters back into an A. Suetonius describes the encryption in one of his writings: "If he had anything confidential to say, he wrote it in cipher, that is, by so changing the order of the letters of the alphabet, that not a word could be made out. If anyone wishes to decipher these, and get at their meaning, he must substitute the fourth letter of the alphabet, namely D, for A, and so with the others." - Suetonius, Life of Julius Caesar 56 One of the great things about the Caesar cipher is how easy this form of encryption is to recreate with modern code. Even with basic , you can easily turn some text into a basic encrypted cipher using the following function: Python def encrypt(text,s):
    result = ""
 
    
    for i in range(len(text)):
        char = text[i]
 
        # Encrypt the uppercase characters or lowercase letters as determined by an if statement
        # before adding to the result variable
        if (char.isupper()):
            result += chr((ord(char) + s-65) % 26 + 65)
 
        
        else:
            result += chr((ord(char) + s - 97) % 26 + 97)
 
    return result Unfortunately, the Caesar cipher probably would not work very well in a modern context since it is pretty easily broken since there are only so many different combinations of letter shifting you can use and, eventually, the code can be broken with brute force attacks. This is something you can also easily program in Python: def crack(message):

for i in range(len(LETTERS)):
   translated = ''
   for s in message:
      if s in LETTERS:
         num = LETTERS.find(symbol)
         num = num - i
         if num < 0:
            num = num + len(LETTERS)
         translated = translated + LETTERS[num]
      else:
         translated = translated + s

print('Potential Hacked Messages #%s: %s' % (i, translated)) Even Caesar himself worked to combine the Caesar cipher with more complicated systems in order to make more complicated encryptions. That all being said, the Caesar cipher is a pretty important part of the history of cryptography and is one of the earliest recorded encryption algorithms used in a practical context.

As a frontend developer, I have been working on building collaborative apps, in which the realtime performance of  multiplayer features is especially important. It needs to synchronize the state of users in less than 100ms between two users. In this article, I would like to demonstrate how " " helped me to implement these multiplayer features within 2 hours. Furthermore, presencejs is totally open source, and also does well in . Throughout my experience using this library, I have been impressed by its power and capabilities. presencejs security, low-latency, and geo-distributed deployment Therefore, I have decided to write this blog to introduce this excellent forward-looking JavaScript library to you. is a JavaScript library that enables the creation of real-time multiplayer/ collaboration web applications that supporting WebTransport. Presencejs It provides many ready-made components like Cursor-Chat, Live-Cursor, Grouphug etc. Certainly, we can create more functional custom components using the basic functions and API of presencejs. Through the ready-made components, I created a nextjs real-time web application demo in minutes. Presencejs: //github.com/yomorun/presencejs Demo: //cursorchat-grouphug-demo.vercel.app/ How did I create this demo? For this demo, I used the Presencejs library to create a real-time multi-user collaborative web application.  I chose a simple but effective design for the demo. I opted for a clean and modern look with a subtle color scheme that wouldn't distract from the content. Presencejs provides several pre-built components such as Cursor Chat, Realtime Cursor, and Grouphug. I used these components along with some custom features to build this demo. Here's a brief overview of how I created it: First, I installed and imported the Presencejs library into my code. npm install @yomo/cursor-chat-react
npm install @yomo/group-hug-react import CursorChat from '@yomo/cursor-chat-react';
import GroupHug from '@yomo/group-hug-react'; Next, I used the components provided by Presencejs to build my application. For this demo, I used  Cursor-Chat, and Grouphug components. // other code

import CursorChat from '@yomo/cursor-chat-react';
import GroupHug from '@yomo/group-hug-react';


export default function Home(){
// other code

return(

// other code

<CursorChat />
<Grouphug />

// other code

)
} Then, I added some custom features . I got a public_key from and created a file .env in the main path. I entered the code below: AllegroCloud.io PUBLIC_KEY=**** And I saved this file, then ran the demo locally. Finally, I deployed my application online using Next.js so that others can access it. Overall, creating a real-time web application using Presencejs is straightforward. Presencejs provides many pre-built components that allow developers to quickly build their own applications. Additionally, Presencejs supports custom development, which allows advanced developers to create more complex features. I hope this demo inspires more developers to try using Presencejs to create their own real-time web applications. The special benefits of presencejs From my experience with it, presencejs has been particularly helpful to me in the following ways: The support to WebTransport makes presencejs show better performance than other collaboration js lib. Compatible with websocket Ready-made components and customized development. Geo-distributed architecture lets me build amazing and fast response web applications. Both serverless and self-hosting. Benefits in detail: Support for WebTransport:
Presencejs supports WebTransport, which is a newer real-time application protocol based on the QUIC protocol. It establishes reliable, secure, low-latency connections without requiring handshakes and negotiations like websocket. It also supports advanced features such as multiplexing and connection migration. This provides faster connection establishment speed, data transfer speed, and latency. Compatible with websocket:
Presencejs also supports websocket. When the user's browser doesn't support WebTransport, presencejs will replace the communication protocol with websocket. Ready-made components and customized development:
Presencejs provides ready-made components like grouphug, livecursor, and cursorchat, which allow real-time web applications. For advanced developers, the complete toolkit can be used to create custom components. Geo-distributed architecture backend:
Presencejs is a serverless architecture framework using the YoMo framework for real-time data processing. This provides faster response speed, stable performance, and secure service. Both serverless and self-hosting:
Presencejs supports self-hosting, which provides greater control over data and applications. Final Notes and Thoughts In conclusion, presencejs offers a variety of benefits that make it an excellent choice for developers looking to build real-time web applications. Its support for WebTransport and websocket protocols, ready-made components, customizable development, geo-distributed architecture, and serverless or self-hosting options provide developers with a versatile toolkit to create amazing applications. By adopting presencejs, developers can ensure their applications have faster response times, greater stability, and improved security. Furthermore, as an open-source product, presencejs will continue to improve and evolve in the coming years. Overall, presencejs is a forward-thinking product that can meet the real-time needs of the web today and in the future. As a developer experience personnel of AllegroCloud and a frontend developer, I am fully aware of the shortcomings of Presence. However, as an open-source product, Presence possesses a more robust vitality and a more transparent technological reserve. In the coming years, Presence will continue to be updated and iterated, providing even higher-quality services.

PresenceJS: The Simplest Way to Power Realtime Experience in My Collaborative Apps

This is by (source: ). Twitter Thread Compound248 12-01-2022 Dear Media, Do you want a simple description of HOW did what he did? @SBF_FTX Why does nobody seem capable of pinning Sam down? His SECRET is, when asked pointed questions, he switches to market-plumbing speak, hiding behind lingo. Let me help you understand SBF's moves. 🧵 👇 Anytime you hear or read "Alameda," replace with, "Sam's personal account." When Alameda borrows FTX customer money, that means "Sam borrows customer money": Alameda is 100% owned by Sam & a few friends. Alameda had no clients. "Alameda's capital" is Sam's, Caroline's, etc. 👇 Sam says he poorly "risk-managed" the FTX and Alameda relationship. Recall: Alameda=Sam. What transpired? • Alameda (Sam) Had Liquidity Issues • Alameda (Sam) Organized a Loan from FTX • To Paper the Loan, Alameda Posted Collateral to FTX • The Collateral Was Pretend Money 3) Alameda (Sam) Had Issues: Nobody has nailed down what happened: was Alameda *always* a fraud or did it suffer losses at some point and then get desperate (perhaps the Terra Luna implosion in the spring)? This is a question begging for an answer. I don't know, but... //tenor.com/bhNAA.gif?embedable=true 4)...Sam claims he was no longer closely involved in Alameda (again, Alameda = Sam's personal capital). Sam claims Caroline & Team ran it independently (other than its venture investments). This claim gives Sam cover to state he doesn't know the details about Alameda's issues. 5) Alameda (Sam) Organized a Loan from FTX: At some point - time uncertain - Alameda (Sam) needed access to liquidity. It almost certainly had margin loans from 3rd parties being called (3rd parties like Gemini or Binance...maybe FTX?). To repay these, Alameda needed liquidity. 6) To Paper the Loan, Alameda Posted Collateral to FTX: FTX client assets were the liquidity that Alameda (Sam) needed to repay its other loans. To pretend this was OK, FTX needed to hold collateral from Alameda as security against the loan (in case Alameda (Sam) didn't repay). 7) When you borrow cash on margin, you generally have to post MORE collateral than you borrow. Ex: you might borrow against your Schwab account. Schwab holds your account's assets as protection against you defaulting on the loan. This lets you turn investments into liquidity. 8) Elon's margin loan is a prominent example: $TSLA Elon can borrow $1 for every $5 of TSLA stock he posts (giving him cash to do anything, like buy , without selling TSLA). $TWTR After borrowing from the facility, if TSLA stock falls below a certain threshold (say $1 to $3)... 9)...Elon needs to either add more collateral to the margin facility (post more ) or pay down the loan. $TSLA If he does neither, the lender can liquidate the it holds as collateral and repay the loan from the proceeds. $TSLA Now back to Alameda (Sam)... 10) Together, FTX & Alameda (Sam & Sam) developed a few shitcoins...err "tokens": the most relevant are and . $FTT $SRM Both FTX & Alameda received huge grants of and (I'm just going to use going forward). $FTT $SRM $FTT F&A (Sam) controlled the VAST majority of the issuance... 11)...and only a tiny portion of / traded. Alameda was the largest trader. If you own 95% of something and then manipulate the price of the other 5%, you can make your 95% look REALLY valuable - just keep the price of that 5% up and look how valuable your 95% becomes! $FTT $SRM //tenor.com/va2h.gif?embedable=true Guess what Alameda (Sam) used as collateral for those margin loans we were talking about? and . $FTT $SRM And it doesn't appear that FTX required a big haircut on those. Remember that Elon can borrow $1 for every $5 of stock he posts? That's an 80% haircut. But... $TSLA 13)...it doesn't appear FTX required a substantial haircut on the that Alameda (Sam) posted. Ultimately, using these shitcoins...I mean tokens, as collateral, Alameda (Sam) "borrowed" $9-$10 billion from FTX. That money was, almost by definition, FTX customer money. $FTT 14) You might recall that Sam famously described tokens like these to and as "magic money in a box." It was recognized immediately as Sam describing a Ponzi. But most of us didn't realize *Sam* was issuing these magic tokens. @TheStalwart @tracyalloway //youtube.com/watch?v=KZYqL79GDXU&t=1292s Sam may argue this is just how banks (and brokerages) work: they take deposits, they lend them out based on credit judgments to earn a spread, and - as long as depositors don't ask for deposits back en masse - all is perfectly fine. But let me tell you what banks don't do: 16) Banks do not: • Lend 70% of their deposits to one borrower • Have that borrower be the founder of the bank • Accept made-up "tokens" as collateral - the actual worst collateral ever conceived • Have almost all that collateral be just two (made up) assets 17) • Apply de minimis haircuts to collateral • Accept derivatives of the bank itself as collateral! is not random - it relates to FTX $FTT As said, Goldman Sachs should not take equity as collateral - it is circular risk. And definitely not pretend-GS equity. @matt_levine $GS 18) This Collateral Was Pretend Money Alameda (Sam) & FTX (also Sam) invented intrinsically worthless tokens, keeping almost all of it for themselves. They traded a tiny percentage, controlling the trading price. This manipulated the implied value of all of Sam's tokens... $FTT 19)...then used the resultant implied token value as collateral to extract ("borrow") customer funds from FTX. The bogus collateral was one giant identical (non-diversified) risk, funding related-party transactions. And FTX lied about doing it via misleading Terms of Service. 20) When Sam says, "he poorly risk-managed" it means, "I, FTX's CEO Sam, should not have allowed Alameda Sam to use pretend Sam-money as collateral to take real-$$ from Sam's customers." It's like in Dumb & Dumber when Lloyd spends all the found money, but replaced it with IOUs. //tenor.com/buMGg.gif?embedable=true This insanity could have lasted longer, except Sam made one horrible mistake. At FTX's founding, Binance/ was a seed investor. As FTX evolved into a full-fledged Binance competitor, FTX reacquired Binance's seed stake using a mix of payments. One of those was... @cz_binance //tenor.com/bONrD.gif?embedable=true 22)... ! $FTT Amazingly, the only big part of 's float that Sam did not control was controlled by his arch-f'ing-rival: CZ. $FTT When it became public that Alameda was relying heavily on as collateral, CZ understood his wasn't worth the magic paper it wasn't written on. $FTT $FTT 23) If CZ didn't know before, he knew then: all of Sam's prior "bailouts" were attempts to prevent Alameda *itself* from being liquidated - it was built on magic token money. And CZ was the biggest independent owner of the magic money. CZ knew there were zero natural buyers. $FTT 24) CZ held the keys to killing his loudest, most annoying competitor & he used them. Good on CZ - hopefully Binance itself is sound. We don't know what's next or where the $10B of customer $$ went. Perhaps Alameda lost it fair & square, perhaps it's stolen. Time MAY tell. -END The key question is, “who at FTX approved $10B of loans to Alameda (Sam)?” Sam says he didn’t understand the exposure. He was CEO. Who approved it? My “worlds colliding” dream is for to reply to my viral true crime thread. 👆 @elonmusk @SBF_FTX Like this to make my dream come true.😅 ...or Retweet.

The Simplest Guide of What Happened With SBF That You Will Ever Come Across

Is your Fire TV Stick running slower than it used to be? I’ve been there and know how frustrating it can be. You sit down, ready to binge-watch your favorite show, only to have it ruined by endless buffering and lagging. I used to think it was just my internet connection, but after diving deeper, I discovered it was my FireStick’s settings that were holding things back. After spending some time tweaking a few key settings, the results were instantly noticeable—streaming was smoother, and navigation felt much snappier. Whether it's Amazon’s constant tracking or too many apps hogging system resources, there are several easy adjustments you can make to drastically improve performance. These changes have made all the difference for me, and I’m excited to share them with you so you can enjoy your Fire TV Stick the way it was meant to be. If you're ready to supercharge your device and say goodbye to frustrating streaming issues, stick with me, and let’s dive into the settings you need to change! Update the FireStick One of the simplest yet most important things you can do to keep your FireStick running smoothly is to ensure it’s updated. Just like with your smartphone, regular updates contain performance improvements and bug fixes. How to Update: Go to Settings > My Fire TV > About > Check for Updates. If an update is available, install it. I used to have performance issues, but after updating regularly, my device runs much faster. Adjust Privacy Settings Amazon loves to track data, but all that data collection comes at the expense of your device's speed. Disabling unnecessary tracking will reduce the load on your FireStick. Here’s What To Do: Go to Settings > Preferences > Privacy Settings. Turn off Device Usage Data and Collect App Usage Data, and also disable Interest-Based Ads. After disabling these, I noticed my FireStick stopped lagging as much, especially during streaming. Disable Data Monitoring Data monitoring is a feature that tracks how much data your FireStick is using. While it may sound helpful, it consumes valuable system resources. How to Turn it Off: Go to Settings > Preferences > Data Monitoring and toggle it off. After switching this off, I saw a noticeable reduction in buffering during my favorite shows. Turn Off Notifications Every time an app sends you a notification, it takes a little bit of power away from your streaming. Disabling these interruptions can free up resources for a smoother experience. How to Disable Notifications: Go to Settings > Preferences > Notification Settings and turn on Do Not Interrupt. This change made a big difference for me, especially when multiple apps were sending alerts during a movie. Stop Autoplay on Featured Content Are those autoplaying ads and previews at the top of your home screen? They’re killing your bandwidth and slowing down your device. Disabling autoplay helps lighten the load on your FireStick. How to Turn Off Autoplay: Navigate to Settings > Preferences > Featured Content and turn off both Video Autoplay and Audio Autoplay. Once I did this, navigating the home screen felt much snappier. Clear Apps Not in Use Over time, we tend to accumulate a lot of apps we don’t use. These apps take up space and can slow down the FireStick, especially if they run in the background. Clearing them out will free up storage and speed up your device. Steps to Uninstall Unused Apps: Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications. Select the app you no longer use and click Uninstall. I went through and removed all the apps I hadn't touched in months, and the improvement in the performance of my device was instant! Force Stop Background Apps Some apps run in the background even when you’re not using them, consuming memory and slowing down your device. You can stop them to free up resources. How to Force Stop Apps: Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications, and choose the app you want to stop. Select Force Stop to halt its background activity. Clear Cache Apps store temporary files that can accumulate over time and slow down your FireStick. Clearing this data can significantly speed things up. How to Clear Cache: Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications, select the app, and choose Clear Cache. I do this regularly for apps I don’t use daily, and it really helps. Conclusion By making a few small adjustments, you can give your FireStick a significant performance boost. I used to struggle with constant buffering and slow navigation, but after these simple tweaks, things improved dramatically. Updating the system regularly, managing apps that were hogging resources, and adjusting a few privacy settings did wonders for my streaming experience. Now, my FireStick runs much faster, and buffering issues are almost non-existent. If you’ve been feeling the same frustration with your device, I highly recommend trying out these steps. They made a huge difference for me, and I’d love to hear how they work for you! Is your Fire TV Stick running slower than it used to be? I’ve been there and know how frustrating it can be.

Is Your Fire TV Stick Slowing Down? Here’s How to Fix It

According to @reganhimself, consider Pixel Pals as a kind of social experiment. It will be interesting to see what art people make collectively assuming more than one person buys the pixels required to draw a picture. It will also be interesting if people will work together and join forces to draw something coherently or go to war with one another! Before executing the steps, take a look at the information provided in the About tab at //pixel-pals.art/ In principle, it’s simple: Buy a pixel token from a dispenser. Burn the pixel token specifying a Hex color code in the memo field e.g., #FFFFFF using the Freewallet “destroy” function. Grid cells will be colored in the order the burns are confirmed on the blockchain. Receive a tokenized final piece for each pixel burned when all cells are colored or a given timeframe passes. …but the tricky part lies in the details, especially for those unfamiliar with Bitcoin, Freewallet, funding a wallet, using a dispenser, or the burn functionality. So, this is the extended list of steps to participate in Pixel Pals: 1 — Read all the information on the website. 2 — Setting your Freewallet wallet (This is not available at the moment). 3 — Buy a pixel from the dispenser. 4 — Burn the pixel token specifying a Hex color code in the memo field e.g. #FFFFFF using the Freewallet “destroy” function. 5 — Grid cells will be colored in the order the burns are confirmed on the blockchain. 6 — Receive a tokenized final piece for each pixel burned when all cells are colored or a given timeframe passes. 1 — Read All the Information Available at Pixel-Pals Open a browser, and go to //pixel-pals.art/ My first suggestion is to join their telegram group //t.me/Pixel_Pals If you face any issue, the community will help you to get it solved. IMPORTANT: Never share your private key or seed word. More about it in the Freewallet section Read the About tab carefully; there is a lot of valuable information. 2 — Download, Install, and Fund Freewallet Freewallet is an open-source wallet for Bitcoin and Counterparty. It uses Legacy and Segwit Bitcoin addresses and lets you store Bitcoin, XCP, and user-created tokens among others. Download Freewallet: Open a browser, and go to //freewallet.io/ . IMPORTANT: do not confuse with freewallet.org. !!! Be aware that Freewallet desktop versions are the only ones supporting all the functionality required in the steps. Select the version of your preference to start downloading the installer. Select the version of your preference to start downloading the installer. In this guide, Windows will be used. You will be sent to GitHub. Install FreeWallet: After you download FreeWallet, you can click on the downloaded file and the installation will start. Create FreeWallet: Not available yet IMPORTANT: Keep tour private key and seed words in a safe place. and never share them. if someone gains access to those they have full access to your wallet. If you lose those, you will not be able to access to the wallet and asset will be inaccesible forever. Once your wallet has been created, you will land at the main FreeWallet screen. Now, let’s figure out which address you need to fund. Click on the “Address” icon, and select View Address. In the pop-up screen, you will see a QR code and the address to copy. From your exchange, send some BTC to the specified address. Keep in mind that 1 Pixel Pal costs BTC 0.000025, but to cover miner fees, it’s best to add a bit extra. Sending an amount equivalent to USD 10 will be more than sufficient, allowing you to purchase multiple Pixel Pals. 3 — Buy a Pixel From the Dispenser A dispenser is an address that automatically sends a token back to you when you send BTC to it. The current token price is BTC 0.000025. So, if you send this amount to the dispenser address, you’ll receive one token directly to your address. Another example, sending BTC 0.00005 will return 2 tokens. To find the dispenser address, visit //pixel-pals.art/. Click on Buy, and a new tab will open in the browser with the details of the dispenser. Identify the address and the amount to be sent. A few remarks before proceeding! IMPORTANT:
Do not send BTC if the “Give Quantity” is 0, as this means the dispenser is empty. Sending BTC in this case will not result in receiving a token.
Additionally, only send BTC from FreeWallet — not from an exchange account. Select and copy the entire address using your mouse cursor. Then, open FreeWallet to proceed with sending BTC to the dispenser. Select the account, and click with the mouse right button and a menu will appear. Fill in the information. Destination field: Paste the address you copied to your clipboard here. Amount field: The minimum amount is BTC 0.000025, as stated in the dispenser. In this example, BTC 0.000050 is being sent to purchase 2 Pixel Pals (because who doesn’t love Pixel Pals?). This is the simplest data setup for this example. You’ll notice that transaction fees are calculated automatically. IMPORTANT: Before proceeding sending funds, check and double check the information! If all the information is correct, click on “Send Funds” and a new pop-up will appear.This is your final chance to cancel the transaction.

By clicking “OK,” congratulations are in order — you’ve successfully purchased a token from the dispenser! Once your transaction is processed, the token will appear in FreeWallet. In this example, I purchased 2 PIXELPALS.gen2 tokens, which will be burned in the next step. 4 — Burn the pixel token specifying a Hex color code in the memo field eg #FFFFFF using the Freewallet “destroy” function. Make sure that you have in mind the colors that you want to select for the pixel. Go to //coolors.co/palettes/trending, select a color that you like, and copy it to the clipboard. The information that you copied looks like this 03045e; add a # at the front, and you have the information that you will need to fill in #03045e. Select the token, and click on it with the right button of the mouse. Click on Destroy PIXELPALS.gen2 option and fill in the following information. Amount field: the number of tokens that you want to destroy. Memo: the color that you have selected. In this case, 2 tokens will be burned and will have the same color. Once you checked the information, click on the “Destroy” button and the following pop-up will appear. This is the last chance that you have to cancel the transaction. If you agree, click on the “Yes” button. After a few minutes, go back to the Pixel Pals website, and you will see your pixel added to the matrix.
