The Algorithms are still stupid.

I just got a message on LinkedIn for a course the happened a month ago. I get two year old stories pushed to me here on Medium and I get ads for stuff you only buy once in your life that I just bought.

I don’t understand why companies pay for ads that are clearly a waste. I guess they have to spend their marketing budget somewhere or maybe it is just me. I don’t mind ad supported subscriptions, I can skip, bypass or ignore the ads. If you are falling for this marketing well, that is your problem.
