All users are encouraged to upgrade immediately.

Intel macOS will be formally downgraded to a Tier 3 platform in the next release. Previously it has informally been at both Tier 1 (because builds and tests were run in CI)…

So, starting at the top of the funnel, with informational search, this is people who are not necessarily even thinking anything to do with a conversion, not even at an early stage necessarily. They just want information. They might be trying to answer a simple or complex question. Now, what we notice at this stage of the funnel, and you might have noticed this as well, is there’s increasingly little space for traditional organic. Often, you’ll get a big feature at the top, like a featured snippet or a knowledge graph, sort of custom results, and then directly beneath that,…

Back in 1969 when my buddies and I were still vibing to The Beatles’ Hey Jude, management trainer, Martin Broadwell, talked about the “four levels of teaching” to describe the work that needs to be done to learn a skill. Broadwell discussed teaching, but his ideas about competence levels became popular in psychology and self-development circles. What are these “levels of competence” and can they be applied to your forex trading journey? Level 1: Unconscious incompetence It may sound like a fancy insult, but this just means that you don’t know yet how unknowledgeable you are about the subject. You’ve probably heard…

Americans are holding a whopping $7.162 trillion in uninsured cash in their bank accounts, according to an under-the-radar report from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The agency says the data, which was captured at the end of March, shows the amount of unprotected cash in US banks is increasing for the first time since the fourth quarter of 2021. US banks align with the FDIC to promise customers that deposits up to the amount of $250,000 will always be covered in the event of a collapse. But anything in excess is not insured. The FDIC is increasing its scrutiny…

So, how might this impact Google consumers in the broadest sense? At this scale, we don’t have much precedent. I’m old enough to remember both the Microsoft (2000) and AT&T (1982) antitrust rulings and the long-term reality looked very different from the initial ruling. Obviously, both companies are still alive and well. While the Microsoft ruling was referenced repeatedly in the Google decision, the market has changed dramatically in 24 years. I think it’s extremely unlikely (again, I’m not a lawyer) that core Google search will be broken up or divested in any substantial way. Even in the ruling, the…
