In which I find myself arguing on the side of a tax intervention
Media companies are struggling, but should taxpayers bail out journalism? In today’s Friday Fight, @UnmadeAU owner @timburrowes argues yes: crikey.com.au/2024/08/23/fri… While professor of economics @chrisberg argues no: crikey.com.au/2024/08/23/fri…

Wrote about the "Kings of 1st Party Data" Uber Advertising. I spent time with Mark Grether, Global VP Uber Ads in New York last week. Regardless of your views, you should understand their capabilities. Thanks @timburrowes @acatinatree for the opportunity. unmade.media/p/ubers-big-mov…

Not going to be a good morning for Qantas. No automated bag drop at Sydney domestic. Staff are coping so far - had to wait only about five mins but the queue is already growing – at Sydney, New South Wales

I might start a new tradition and repost this once a year – at Kensington, London
Replying to @timburrowes
Optus should already have had a playbook written for this sort of issue. Although its team have done crisis simulations they focused on network outages. But check out parent company Singtel's latest annual report; customer backlash, fines and litigation, they predicted it all

Only 1% injury rate for conference attendees. Not sure that’s actually a win – at London, England
Apes, we are aware of the eye-related issues that affected some of the attendees of ApeFest and have been proactively reaching out to individuals since yesterday to try and find the potential root causes. Based on our estimates, we believe that much less than 1% of those attending and working the event had these symptoms. While nearly everyone has indicated their symptoms have improved, we encourage anybody who feels them to seek medical attention just in case.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
During ApeFest, attendess suffered from unprotected exposure to UV lights, leading to skin and eye injuries such as sunburn, eye pain, and temporary blindness theverge.com/2023/11/6/2394…
