Congrats to @KingJames of the @sixers for moving into 3rd on the all-time ASSISTS list!

If having an affair with a woman can bring down a CEO, shouldn’t raping little girls bring down politicians and billionaires.

8/10 people on a dealership sales floor leave every year.
Even more shocking?
So does a quarter of the people running it.
Netchex just released new payroll data from 1,238 dealerships:
Sales turnover: 84.7% a year.
Management turnover: 28.9% a year.
That means a lot of floors are being rebuilt every year by leaders who are new themselves.
My take:
Processes live in people’s heads. When people and systems keep changing, it becomes harder to build on past success.

USC has an $11.5M/year coach, a $30M roster and a $200M facility, and UCLA could go from 3-9 to the CFP with a first-year coach before Lincoln Riley gets USC there in five. USC could beat UCLA and STILL watch the Bruins get in.
Elite programs cut the check and fire him.

With LeBron James about to become 1st in PTS and 3rd in AST, I wanted to see who was the closest active player to this impossible combination.
It’s James Harden, who’s 11th in PTS and 12th in AST.
For Harden to reach LeBron’s current stature, at his current averages, he would just need to play 831 more games for the PTS and 543 more games for the AST.
So, if Harden stayed exactly where he was right now, he would have to play every single game for the next 10 seasons and he would successfully achieve this feat when he’s 47 years old entering Year 28 in 2036.

So let me get this straight. An A.I. startup gave to Sean Duffy’s son in law’s campaign for congress.
Then Sean Duffy and the FAA gave that same company a 12 year, $875M contract for their A.I. air traffic control system.
That same traffic system went live nationwide Nov. 10.
Three days later, the FAA had to ground all flights because the system failed.
Ok. Lock em all up.

Google anunció ayer el despliegue de Gemini 4 Hydrogen en su buscador, para todo el mundo. Según ellos, es la mayor actualización de modelo en la historia de Search.
Uno de los cambios afecta al 'query fan-out', la técnica que ya usaba el modo IA: divide tu pregunta en subtemas, busca cada uno a la vez y con todo eso monta la respuesta. Con Hydrogen ese proceso razona mejor y, según Google, enlazará a un abanico más amplio de webs, incluidas algunas que quizás no habrías encontrado antes.
Además, entiende mejor las preguntas complejas o con erratas, y las respuestas serán más visuales, con imágenes, tablas comparativas y herramientas hechas a medida.
Si eso se traduce de verdad en enlazar a más webs y más variadas, bienvenido sea.

Si vas a reportar visibilidad en IA en Google de esta semana, apunta tres fechas:
1️⃣ // 9-11 nov: bug en el informe de IA generativa de Search Console. Bajan las impresiones, pero es solo un error de registro.
2️⃣ // 10 nov: empieza el core update.
3️⃣ // 12 nov: Gemini 4 Hydrogen llega a Google Search para todos.
Cualquier "antes y después" de esta semana mide tres cosas a la vez 😅

DAMN: CNN’s Kristin Holmes just dropped a hammer on Sean Duffy and the entire Trump Administration and I’m here for it:
HOLMES: If they knew that this system was so fragile, why weren't they prepared? He essentially said that he couldn't anticipate every kind of catastrophic failure that was going to happen. But again, that is the government's job is to try and look ahead to potential failures and have backup plans in place.
Now, the other question was, after both of these officials spent a lot of time complimenting president trump, saying he's a builder, saying he was the best president of our time and this was so important to him. I asked why we hadn't heard from him.

Donald Trump was MIA today while 1.5 million Americans were stranded at airports at a scale not seen since 9/11.
He does not care about you.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Transportation secretary can’t rule out another outage, which DHS secretary blamed on new upgrades ‘overwhelming’ system.
Pat Dean retweeted
WOW! So the Trump admin just admitted that they put in technology that overwhelmed the system.
“The new technology was overwhelming the older system”
Seems to me that Sean Duffy and the Trump administration are ill-prepared like usual.
Bring back Pete Buttigieg!
Pat Dean retweeted
Duffy is blaming outdated equipment for today’s problems. That does little to inspire confidence that adequate safeguards are in place to prevent similar failures and ensure the safety of future flights.
