Things I learned lately 2 Apr

  • 28% of Facebook content is now ads.
  • A pack of cigarettes is $15 now!

  • Pepsi made a special run of Peeps flavoured Pepsi. Yet they didn't have the foresight to label it Peepsi?
  • Google tries to give you search results based on high values in 3 factors: expertise, authoritativeness, and trustworthiness.
  • 5.4 million Google searches happen every minute.
  • Google tweaks their search algorithm roughly 6 times every day.
  • Google says that 15% of the search queries they get every day are queries they've never seen before.
  • Spotify used to have a hard limit of 10,000 tracks that you could have in your collection. That limit is now gone. There is a catch though. Playlists (each) and offline tracks are limited to 10,000.
  • Spotify HiFi is coming in 2021, with lossless audio (not compressed mp3). Price TBA.
