I am working as a marketing manager in a middle-class company in Germany. Today my Boss sent me this article about Post-conversion.
Now I am in doubt and would like to hear your opinion about this topic.
https://www.econda.de/2017/06/attribution-und-post-conversion/
As it seems the Article is only available in German. Maybe you can use google translate to read the article if you are interested in.
In short it says Post-conversion is Bullshit and not an appropriate way to measure success of display ads (for example) on the internet. It says that its voodoo and esoteric because we are faking facts. This Article says that we only use Post-conversion as a method to justify our marketing expenses without a real effect to sales or profit.
I think Post-conversion IS a way to measure success of your internet advertising and it also is a way to distribute your money to the right Traffic seller.
It is true that you can draw wrong conclusions with this method if you use it the wrong way. But you can do this with everything.
For example: In science statistics are a recognised way to measure things although everybody knows how easily to forge they are.
-"Don't ever trust statistics that you haven't forged yourself"-
But that doesn’t mean this method is fundamentally wrong.
Please let me hear your thoughts about that if you have any.

A local radio station talk show host does not believe that you can embed viruses in pictures that will open simply by opening the image. He wants people to send him one.
Must be an email attachment.
Must be a .png or "ping" file as he calls it.
http://www.roverradio.com
Pic unrelated.
>>60925555
That's pretty relative to whatever you use to open the email.
Are you targeting a particular email client? Or a particular browser? A particular image viewer?
You're going to be exploiting something. The virus won't just run from being in the image file. It's got to be executed by something.
poor grandpa got btfo by his drinking buddy?
youre all washed up and hes got a radio gig?
what you are requesting is illegal and /g/ isnt your personal army
>he calls it a ping
awe poor baby triggered?
pathetic
>>60925584
Right, that's what I thought as well but he had a few callers who thought they could pull it off so I gave /g/ the opprtunity.
Which components do you recommend buying to build an adequate PC for 3D modelling and rendering?
Using: 3DsMax Revit AutoCAD Sketchup Vray etc.
Motherboard, RAM, CPU, GPU, M.2 or SSD, cooling system, etc.
Thanks a lot

Dpends on how large your models are. If you are going to render some heavily detailed physics animation, like airflow or heatflow you really need huge amount of processing power. I do some smaller rendering, like Animation with cars etc. I use a Ryzen 1800x and it works fine. But the bottleneck is the GPU. I'd recommend you a FirePro or a Quadro. There are special motherboards with special bus systems for rendering machines. They provide direct buses from the M2 SSD to the processor unit. However I am not really that well educated in the pro sector.
Exporting a shutter in Blender with a 3D world with small animation in 4k and 40 sec it takes me about 25 mins with a ryzen 1800x and a nitro 480 4GB. I think this could be improved. But i am not that familiar with Blender yet.
Hello i dont know anything about coding or programming but i got this sent to me and wondered if it means anything and if someone could translate it to me? i got it from a important friend.

Nobody designs webpages as HTML first with javascript functionality as an extra anymore.
The average webpage is 1.5MB
T-thanks
>>60925461
well, html is xml and xml is shit if you want to have functionality on a website. shame on those who use javascript to do stuff they could have done without, but there are only a few things like that.
>>60925461
Anyone who does this is generally a bad web dev or they run a large web app where it's necessary
I design then that way. I only use JavaScript for the menu bar.
>>60926129
Well yeah. I am that.
My GPD Pocket arrived today, it's pretty smol

I love nipples, but I don't think GPD understands them
that will give you cramps, Thinkpad nipples are great because they are spaced out
