The normal explanation is that the happiness derived per dollar decreases with every dollar.

The idea being that a couple making $200k jointly per year spending $800/mo on a maid gives them far, far less happiness than a homeless person getting their first warm meal and shower this month.
Having a compatibility layer alone is far from sufficient. BBOS 10 (at least on the Z30) was downright miserable to use. There was also a huge open source developer community surrounding Maemo/Meego that I'm not sure BBOS has ever seen.

Not at all! If that came off as a criticism of the engineers, it wasn't - it's a well-known phenomenon for poorly-managed employees (and/or poor process), since humans will naturally (and fairly!) optimize for their own personal success.

>Once that data problem is bridged, it blows the problem right open for data to be explored and figure out what exactly predicts a top performer, in any field.

Yes, assuming there is some top-level "data problem" to actually bridge here...

How do we know that the concept of "top performer" isn't just a completely divergent idea that means different things to different people and different companies in different industries and different geographic areas?
My thought exactly. Such claims as the one from the video, in fact, are attractive, partially because they are catchy and counter intuitive, a lot like conspiracy theories.

While extreme nationalism is dangerous, nationalism is an effective way, not the most effective, to establish order and reach consensus to tens and hundreds of millions of people. And it is awkward to see that the creator of the video highlight the US exceptionalism to end their argument, which by itself, IMHO, is pretty nationalistic.

"Oh, okay. Sorry America. We recognize the error of our ways. We will stop being China now."
Its interesting that you praise Spotify's selection. I love Spotify, have been a Premium subscriber for 4 years, but there are hundreds of songs that I'd like to listen to but have never been available on Spotify. Meanwhile, they're available on Apple Music.

Also, some of the songs that I've saved over the past few years have been removed from Spotify's library - just yesterday I noticed that The Safety Dance is greyed out in my client. (Others include I Walk the Line, Save Tonight and Ambarsariya)

That said, I'm a Spotify lifer. I can't see myself leaving and as for the selection, I live in eternal hope that they'll improve it with time.
I don't think having dependencies built into the language and/or compiler means it needs to be difficult to integrate with something like make. In fact gcc has dependency analysis built into it. It just knows how to output that information in a simple format that make can then consume.

I feel like this choice has more to do with early java culture and/or constraints as compared to unix/linux. With "the unix way" it is really common to solve a problem by writing two separate programs that are loosely coupled by a simple text based file format. When done well, this approach has a lot of the benefits of well done microservices-style applications built today. By contrast, (and probably for a variety of reasons) this approach was always very rare in early java days. It seemed for a while like the norm was to rewrite everything in java and run it all in one giant JVM in order to avoid JVM startup overhead. ;-) The upshot being you often ended up with a lot more monolithic/tightly coupled designs in Java. (I think this is less true about Java today.)

Perhaps it helps to think about the physical equivalent...

Suppose your neighbor "hosts" some copyrighted material in their yard, either on a projection screen or a large poster.

If you decide your visitors may be interested in said content, and move your van out of the way so that your visitors may observe the content in your neighbor's yard as they walk to your front door, is that infringing?

If you additionally set up a sign pointing at your neighbors yard, causing your visitors to look in that direction, is that infringing?

If you decide to make some money by selling advertising space on a sign you set up on your property, right next to your neighbor's display (which is still on their property), is that infringing?

Note that to a casual observer who doesn't know or care where the property line is, the end result is nearly indistinguishable from what would have resulted if you had set up the projection screen or poster in your own yard. (The only difference is that it's a foot further away and controlled by a different person.)

Anyway, while it certainly seems sleazy to profit from your neighbors illegal display, it seems bizarre to conclude that pointing your visitors at your neighbor's display is the same as displaying it yourself.

Wrote a "persuasive speech" in college a decade ago about how to solve the problem the music industry was facing (piracy). I proposed an all you can listen subscription service, at a price point of say $10. Saying the record labels would work together to make this happen. My professor nearly laughed me out of the room when I proposed my thesis for the speech. I presented the speech anyways and got an A.

Today, Spotify is thriving as a company and the major record labels have their hands in it. Sure, they have some work to do to figure out how to become profitable and sustainable, but they've come a long way.

Agreed, but technology changes everything (otherwise, what are we all doing?). Transporting goods by boat is thousands of years old (or probably more), but modern shipping has a completely different impact than millennia of wooden wind- and human-powered boats.

I just stopped listening to music that doesn't exist in Spotify.

I fought it for a while with local playlist syncing and such, but just wasn't worth it over time. There's enough other music out there that I gave up trying.

10K songs is restrictive when it comes to digital music collections.

I have 15k songs in my iTunes library, and that doesn't include the music I listen to via Apple Music and SoundCloud. Given that I've been building up this music collection for about two decades now, there's quite a bit of stuff in the long tail, though I do listen to near all of it over the span of a few years.

If Spotify want to be around for another decade, I think it's reasonable that they let people build up a respectable library.

A couple of good quotes:

"This skepticism about Wakanda is both Black Panther’s greatest strength and, ultimately, the reason its climactic battle lets down the rest of the movie just a little bit. But it’s also part and parcel of Marvel’s recent slate of movies, which has been interested, more than ever, in the idea that American hegemony and military power maybe isn’t everything it’s cracked up to be — even as every movie seems to conclude with a big shrug. “Well?” the films seem to ask. “What else are you gonna do?”"

Well? What else are you gonna do?

"In the deconstructionist corner are works like the comic Watchmen or even the Pixar film The Incredibles. The former asks what kind of psychological trauma you’d have to experience to think putting on a costume and beating people up is the way to live your life; the latter flirts with objectivism in its insistence that everybody is special but some people are more special than others. (The Incredibles remains the best superhero movie, but it’s constantly about two adaptation choices away from becoming a straightforward rendition of Atlas Shrugged — for kids!)"

I'm going to have to think about that last one.
I spent several months alternating between Tidal HIFI and Spotify to see if I could difference on my Sennheiser HD800S and the Chord Mojo DAC and couldn't. I also tried the "Tidal Masters". It wasn't some complex blind test though.

In the end, Spotify's content discovery was worth more to me, but if they finally release some lossless version for twice the price, I'll be happy to subscribe. Even at that price, one month of Spotify is stil cheaper than the first R.E.M CD I bought in 1991.

All good points, and I think it reinforces the incredible cost associated with attempting to institute something as tyrannical as “pre-crime” detention in the US. It could be done, but only over a mountain of corpses and human misery. A government willing to do that, and sacrifice economic and social stability for generations is happily not one which resembles our government. That could change, but it would be a massive change, not some inevitable slog.

In China they’ve already crushed anything like resistance, disarmed their populace, and gone the full “re-education camp” route for a while.
It goes way beyond the American public, they're global - in at least 95 countries. I guess that's how they're managing to keep the scheme going as long as they have.

Really does seem like a strong bet that they will go to zero.
I think that just supports my argument, really. I've never really used makefiles. The blog post talked about using patsubst to change a path. The name of the function essentially gives no clue at all what it does.
Let's be realistic. China has an economy nearly three times the size of the #3 economy, Japan, at this point. They dominate dozens of aspects of global trade and commodities. They're a nuclear power, and clearly the world's #2 military (and persistently trying to close the gap with the US).

So, do what about Xi exactly? Nothing. There's absolutely nothing Trump or Obama could or would be able to do about Xi's power grab. Obama would have issued a PR about concerns of this or that, and it would have been meaningless in actuality (other than making a small number of people feel slightly better for a minute).

China has been authoritarian-heavy in one form or another for most of the last 300 years or so of modern history. Smacking them on the nose about it isn't going to accomplish much. It'll work about as well as it has with Russia over the prior century.
This probably just means that more people are using family plans instead of paying individually. I'm part of a family plan, as are pretty my everyone else I know. It only makes sense. The upside is that canceling a family plan is much harder than a single one just due to the increased number of people involved who'll be inconvenienced.
I read it's based on human curation - this is the clever part.

If you have songs in your playlist that someone else has in their playlist it'll find a song in that other playlist that you don't have. Offload the complexity of matching to humans already doing it.

That's the world today - ignore facts that don't agree with your reconceived views and deny deny deny.

The problem with exploiting vulnerabilities for personal gain is that you're hurting more innocent investors, too. It's kinda like carpet bombing, in that you'll accomplish your goal of killing the enemy, but you're taking a lot of other people with them because they have a spurious link.

OTOH, maybe you can gain enough influence to make changes that would marginalize or punish the corrupt operators. A lot of these quasi-cryptos have a hidden layer to prevent this (Ripple, IOTA, etc.). Their coins are more like unregulated stock in the founder's company than a decentralized machine. I'm not sure if that makes them more or less susceptible to a single, strong outside force. They could simply delete your coins, but without knowing the exploit that's just temporary. You would have an actual target (other than 'the system'), which you could pressure (aka blackmail), but they could cash out immediately and walk away.

If I was running a scamcoin (and a terrible person) I'd probably bring the exploit finder into the inner circle to gain positive media (with the associated price bump), wait for the first major act of the new person and then cash out, step down, and disclose the vulnerability. Spin it as the new person trying to cover up problems they caused or improperly addressing the original problem and preventing a good solution.

To counter that, the exploit finder could condition their involvement on releasing the hidden layer's source as a matter of transparency, but really be working on a way to fork without the hidden layer or replace it with a democratized layer. Now you can claim the founders were greedy and didn't want to fix the exploit, and that your working solution was rejected because it took away their ability to manipulate the market. Turn it into an announcement of the new 'fixed' coin.

It'd be a fun movie plot, but probably terribly boring to watch.
I kind of like to think there are people out there that really think and live according to that phrase "because once you have enough money, money doesn't matter".

This is the thing that really boils me. I mean, we can debate whether XMPP is a great protocol, but for a brief window it seemed like we’d have an open chat standard with at least one big stalwart to bring in the normals.

In general, do not work on what you think it is important. Work on what the management think it is important. If you don't understand why do they think something it is important, ask them.

It is okay to disagree with them, but try to frame it as a proposal and see how much they follow along with your idea. If they don't like it, then do not pursue that project. The job of upper-management is to set priorities.
> The government is not a wall between you and what scares you

While I'm sympathetic to your point, it can be taken too far. Government does provide security to its citizens, and it does that partly by gaining prior intelligence about suspicious activities. Some things should be investigated - if someone posted online about committing murder, in detail and with clear plans, I'd hope law enforcement would check it out.

I'm confused by "calling people who are criticizing how a sovereign country spends its income communist - which is true by definition". So if I criticize how a monarchy or a "communist" country (like Dubai or China), or even a "capitalist" country like the US or EU spends their money then... I'm a communist? No.

If you recommend that the workers own the means of production then you might be a communist, but it's silly to all criticism communist. You might as well call everyone who criticizes a Nazi (i.e. socialists==communists, am I right?).
The sum of all channels capacity measured in satoshis.
The subscription service of Soundcloud? Really?

I am a Soundcloud Go+ (or whatever their premium tier is called by now) subscriber, and it is the worst. They don't have the same catalogue available like Spotify, the alogrithm constantly shows me outright garbage (young aspiring musicians? More like 15 year olds with a mic in the basement) and their app... I don't know how a company that old can have an Android app that is so shitty. It even misses the subscription status and won't let me play my collection, even when 2 minutes earlier (and later) it all worked (works) fine.

Can't wait to end my subscription there and move to Spotify/Apple Music.
Their licence is still proprietary, though. At the least people with a technical curiosity in X-Pack will be able to install it. Technically it's illegal, but Elastic probably doesn't care until the moment they start gaining momentum.

Nix does this. And it has a global package cache, plus many more things.

It's also distribution agnostic. It even works on Darwin (macOS). Although under its own distribution, NixOS, there are some extra advantages.

As much as I like Debian, I think switching the whole distribution to a package manager like Nix would simplify and speed things up greatly. The whole package tree would not need to be in sync, and different releases would become just package channels. Besides, brittle dist-upgrades would disappear.

Actually whole Linux distros could become just Nix configuration expressions...
