1638745476005756930 | @KentGerman The best predictor of future purchases is previous purchases. Like if you bought Crest toothpaste in the past, you're more likely to buy it again. So Amazon actually is being very smart here. | 0 |

1638746481472557056 | @stshank @KentGerman If we follow the past indicators forever we’ll be a photocopy of ourselves. I mean we already do that but it’s a slippery game | 0 |
1638747034638487553 | @jetscott @KentGerman Yeah, I was kidding. I get annoyed when Amazon or online ads in general recommend stuff I just bought. Seems to happen less nowadays, perhaps because I use tracker blocking. But Amazon has logged-in, first-party data. | 0 |
