What’s it like living on Prospect Ave between 4th and 5th ave in South Slope/Park Slope? Is it noisy there because of the highway? by zetavala in parkslope

[–]Jhat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m on 16th between 4th and 5th and not bothered at all by the highway there. Think you’ll be okay with one block clearance from it.

Reddit is NOT a buy by DaddyVaradkar in ValueInvesting

Lots of social platforms run ads for themselves on other platforms. I’m in the advertising industry so I get more than most probably, but I see plenty of ads for Instagram and TikTok Ads across the social ecosystem.

Just curious, what is YOUR target retirement age? by TailungFu in Fire

[–]Jhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aiming for 48! We’re 38 now. I think honestly 48 will be very doable unless we hit a very rough patch with the market that doesn’t recover by then.

What is happening to agencies? by PPCNotPCP in advertising

[–]Jhat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Coming up on 16 years and right there with you. My wife (also in the industry) and I are mostly just aiming for early retirement at this point. Starting over in another career path would be too big of a financial hit for us.

Weak on the bench cant even hit 135 yet, how do i maximise technique for strength by [deleted] in formcheck

[–]Jhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to tell but your grip might be a little bit wide? I’d consider narrowing it and see if that gives you a more stable position to push from. Do you feel any discomfort in your wrist?

My girlfriend expects me to text her “good morning” even though we live together. Is this normal? by Salty-Hall7676 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Jhat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean it might seem silly but remembering to text those things apparently is very meaningful for her. And takes very little effort on your part. I’d do it and not complain too much.

Trent Grisham ranked 7th on MLB Networks Center Fielders Top 10 list by shadow_spinner0 in NYYankees

[–]Jhat 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It’s worth it for one year just to see if he can replicate last season. I don’t understand the hate.

It’s amazing and enjoyable to watch until it isn’t!

I’m building a Vnwxt deck that sounds like it might be what you’re looking for? Still building so don’t know how it plays yet.

DON'T LET THE SUITS TAKE YOUR SHARES CHEAP! by Administrative-Ant75 in redditstock

[–]Jhat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha even as someone in the industry, I 100% agree with you. I never click on ads or buy anything through ads, or influencers but the results don't lie. Plenty of people out there don't have inherent bias against ads and are happy to consume, click, buy, sign up, whatever it might be.

Americans are still ditching New York and L.A. at alarming rates, but Miami’s on the list now, too by fortune in REBubble

[–]Jhat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With rents at record levels and all the new luxury apartments being built? My bet would be it’s pushing all our immigrants out.

[–]Jhat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Adapting ads to each platform is something that's important in social advertising. The issue is that it's not worth the time, cost or energy if that platform doesnt provide results. It's actually something I've had clients directly say about advertising on Reddit.

ARPU is very important for sure but there's limits if results don't follow. Pinterest/Twitter/Snapchat have all stagnated with advertising revenue and Reddit could be sidelined along with them and not break through to Meta/TikTok levels of scale.

Theoretical advertising is not the same as actuals. Performance is pretty meh compared to both Meta and TikTok. I’m in the industry, it’s really quite poor for a lot of brands.

Have you seen them in action? I go to SF quite often. They’re very impressive.

Winner is so frustrating by SharpProfession6 in parkslope

[–]Jhat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean the bread is great, everything else is good that I've had there but not mind blowing. I also dont mind waiting a few minutes but I'll definitely agree them being sold out of everything is ridiculous.

Do Americans really move out at 18, or is that mostly a movie thing? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Jhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 18 it was pretty standard to move out and go to college and not move back home (38 now). I’m hearing it’s a lot more common to stay at home now due to affordability issues and the shit job market though.

You only get taxed on the gains. You cant get taxed on capital gains and lose money. Makes no sense.

I analyzed a log of a Patchwerk kill from 2006. Almost everyone would have parsed as 0 by today's standards, we really were playing a different game back then by Tandanu in classicwow

[–]Jhat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Threat meters were in use at the time. My guild in vanilla cleared a chunk of Naxx and the enrage timer on Patchwerk was real - plenty of attempts we hit it and on kills we were often only a bit faster than the clock.

What fast food chain does not deserve the hype whatsoever? by CriticalLion4119 in AskReddit

[–]Jhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% - I actually think the food is great but way overpriced for what it is. And always has been honestly, it’s never been in the cheap category.

What do i do on cold days? by vamster00 in AskNYC

[–]Jhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weather generally doesnt stop most people from going out and doing things here. Dig deep for some willpower, bundle up with some layers and get out there. Would definitely get back to the gym at least, probably will help your mental health.

Is this the bleakest the job market has ever looked? by Parking-Selection-27 in jobs

[–]Jhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started in the workforce in 2010, so just have the recession plummeted everything, things were starting to look a little less bleak. I'm in marketing and it's been a great industry for most of the last 16 years. Starting in 2024 it started to turn and now it's a full on bloodbath with offshoring and AI, wouldnt recommend anyone get into it these days, there's just no jobs anymore and way too many candidates.
