Hehe, I have the exact same problem. My wife is listening to music on my account from time to time and because of that Discover Weekly isn't that awesome anymore.

About the data, everything you are playing goes through Spotify. I have not implemented any playback feature, just a way to control your Spotify devices so that you don't have to go back an forth with the Spotify app. So of course, they have this data.

I can't say the same about the dislikes. They are just a way for Noiseblend to filter your recommendations.
I wish it would work the same on Spotify as lately I've been given some Russian artists to listen to and I don't understand a word from that language. (But it still sounded pretty good)
I think that because of the way Spotify's algorithms work, a dislike button would be quite hard to implement without breaking the ML stuff.

If you like edgy things, make sure to check out the Genres page in Discover. Almost every genre there has a "Not for the masses" popularity option which contains the edge of that genre, things that people haven't gotten to hear yet. Maybe that's for you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'll probably write a piece about all I've learned and been through in the past 8 months, but let me fix the bugs first :)
IANAL and none of what I say constitutes as legal advice. That said, all laws are limited to the nation-state they're enacted in. You can walk into a brother in the EU, but not in the US unless you're in Nevada where state-law allows it.

Most legislation in my country (Pakistan) define their scope in their text ("Whole of Pakistan", or "Whole of Punjab", etc.) depending on the body enacting the legislation.

The GDPR is special, in that it expands the scope to online services that target EU residents. If your audience includes the EU, and you're not GDPR compliant, you'll likely get fined by the EU.

How they enforce the fine is murky at the moment, and was left out as to be decided later, but I'd assume you'd have to pay the fine and any other fees if you ever started operating within the EU or running money through, or literally doing anything in the EU. This random stackexchange question[1] also says the EU hopes to have US cooperation to enforce the fines but IANAL and I'm not sure how that would work.

Yeah, I'm interested as well.
I don't see how it makes any sense to demand a hefty cut from a successful investment while intentionally turning a blind eye to the risk that was assumed by the actual investors. For exampld, I really doubt these we would be discussing how employees were obliged to pay up the company's debt if Github was bankrupt, and how it would be immoral for them to not be responsible for the venture's finantial outcome.

I mean it should be obvious to the flightsim community that this company can't be trusted. Yet outside of reddit/r/flightsim most people ignore the news. Some even defend the company for it.

Now I don't claim to be a security expert but I did some digging and it appears to me that the cmdhost.exe is just a reroute to the commandline which they install under admin priveleges to elevate their permissions whenever they want without alerting the user. Which no flightsim addon should ever need. There are much better and safer ways to implement a licensing system.

It is saddening to see such a passion of mine get destroyed by greedy devs and power hungry "community managers". There have been dozens of incidents where a user gets their license banned or account banned on the dev forums for disagreeing. Flight sim devs and forums can't take critique and it's hurting the community. This is just another example of it.

The DotCom bubble burst, but we wound up with [arguably] useful results in the long run (agile, or whatever comes next, might be the biggest ripple).

The outcome of the dotcom bubble was the build-out of the infrastructure (dark fibre). A similar bubble built out the railway infrastructure the century before that.

Agile is a bubble in and of itself.
What are the features that make GitHub? What if we used only git on the command line?

Which features would we miss?

Maybe we could add those features with something similar to git, some intelligent scripts?

My working hypothesis is that more 'evil' the player is higher the margin they'll have because by definition they are providing as much value to their customers. problem is this means they'll have a lot more resources to burn on 'non-essential' avenues such as lobbying and kickbacks. this, IMHO, is the reason you see the rise of so many BS professions all the while little hourly worker is getting squeezed out. honestly I dont see an end in sight.

far as the govt goes, its a good idea but the problem is the moment you take survival fear out of a company right that moment they'll start dragging their feet and become unproductive. so you are back to square one. IMO a social utility like model needs to evolve. And we need near religious zeal on enforcing antitrust/monopoly law.
Why do you presuppose that the money was spent irresponsibly?

I usually don't have a slightest problem with someone being a zealot, but I don't respect RMS because of his tactics to take some word (for example 'freedom'), attach his own meanings into it, modifying what the word normally means, and then pushes his definition no matter what. I consider this an incorrect thing to do.
The limit actually transfers. E.g. if you spent half of your allocated time on iPhone and then grab iPad you will only half the half time remaining, not starting afresh.

It saddens me that Facebook has become this big, opaque data hole in the Internet. Even searching for that group name only returns one reference back to it.

All that accumulated recorded knowledge that exists only so long as Facebook determines that Groups have financial benefit. All that knowledge that can't be archived for the greater Internet.
Yea it seems like this solution if implemented back in iOS2, would have prevented many phones from being stolen, jailbroken, and resold.
It absolutely does not cost the same, more expensive real estate means you have to pay people significantly more on average to do jobs (nobody is interested in working jobs that cant make rent), it also means more expensive land purchases and easements for public works projects.

Taxes arent meerly defered until sale, they are allowed to rise to market value after the sale is complete, but the government never gets those years of back taxes they would have gotten otherwise.
The whole thing is just another part of the media war against Trump. We wouldn't hear a word about it if it wasn't for Trump win, they would even celebrate the "smart" way Clinton used social media to win the election. I think the wild west of the tech world had ended. Not it is just corporations and their representatives making more and more laws, regulations and limits to prevent small companies and innovators from even trying to compete. Instead of new products created by "straight white males" you will see more and more HR and legal women harping about all kind of laws and regulations.

The Nginx configuration responsible for the service[1] just hardcodes a handful of common HTTP status codes. A Go version that supports any status code takes fewer lines than status.icu's nginx.conf, even after gofmt.[2] Not that I think anyone should be relying on a third-party service for "writing browser integration tests" OR "mocking API responses".

As I've replied to someone else downthread, I don't believe I made the argument that the U.S. military did not have Christians. What does this have to do with what Hersh claimed? Yes, it was just a speech. But he didn't preface his assertions as being just gossip. I don't agree that we should completely ignore what a journalist says in public. Hersh has been criticized for making questionable claims in speeches:

http://nymag.com/nymetro/news/people/features/11719/

He's seen (rightly) as an authority, and he's speaking in a venue where the topic is non-fiction. People have a right to question those assertions and ask for evidence, which he is free to provide or to walk back.

They use the data collected from any activity on your phone and merge it back with any other data they have of you, to display ads on all the platforms you use. Less time spent on your phone, less usage they can collect to get your behavior, less specific ads. I thought it was common knowledge.

But we should always add, that the "freedom" we refer here to is actually "freedom-as-defined-by-RMS". It doesn't match what the word normally means; RMS made up a definition of what he thinks is software freedom, and some people happen to agree with him. Then there is another big group of people who don't.

Because if The People were seeing the value, they wouldn’t be fighting it. Consider the Swedish model, taxes are high but the government is visibly doing a lot of stuff. Whereas the California model is taxes are high and no one is really sure where the money went.

I would also argue that the colleges themselves are not optimizing their value as an investments for their students. It would be really interesting to see what would happen if school admins were compensated based on percentage of a students' future earnings.

Fossil seems like one of many potential upgrades, and it's the second time I hear about it today!

However I think the main problem is almost always existing users. Git has arguably been falling behind in terms of features for quite a while now, but its momentum makes it hard for a lot of devs (including me!) to switch to a different vcs.

Apple steals the AR scene at WWDC18
Maybe because it doesn't actually mean anything. It's like those random numbers they pull out... 40% faster app starts etc... In practice, you won't even think about it in real usage. They take some part of upstart procedure and load it afterwards in the background so it seems the app is faster. It's smoke and mirrors.
Contrarily, all I've seen is people making quantified statements of support.

What I haven't seen is a moralistic rejection. Microsoft tried to kill Windows gaming, they tried to kill Linux, they tried to kill Firefox, and countless other things. Their operating system design is nearly abusive and even their open source development (tracking, licensing) has been lined with traps. I want nothing more than for them to disappear, and if them buying a $7B company which ends up with 0 users is one step on that path then I absolutely support it.

It has nothing to do with whether they promise they won't do bad things _this_ time, or whether they claim they'll be independent (they're clearly not independent - Microsoft now owns Github).
I would just like to mention, that in my opinion "decentralized GitHub" is an oxymoron, Github's innate feature is being centralized, to centralize developers into one place, being a kind of social network.

There is a lot of old tech out there that could be implemented and would probably provide ROI, but isnt. So many businesses are still running on paper! My point is that industry isnt just sitting around waiting for new tech so they can get higher efficiency, there are reasons why not everyone is doing the latest and greatest (including ML) and they're usually valid.
To be fair, most games today are built using Unity3D, Unreal Engine etc, which all support Metal already. Hardly anyone writes their own game engines these days, and if they do they probably have the resources to support Metal.
Overall still a bummer though.
Technology is extremely new. That said, I completely agree with everything you say (I have no social media, only use phone to make calls, but have a bit of a problem with youtube). But that does not mean that it will always be this way.

Not that I am anyone qualified enough to say this, but I think you should try to read the bible more, read philosophy, and overall try to persevere and embrace the struggles of life.

Almost all open source licenses are Free Software, and vice-versa, MIT included. As long as it gives users the Four Freedoms, it's Free Software. What you're talking about is copyleft, which rms certainly prefers people use, but it's not mandatory to be Free Software.
Isn't the emergency loophole protecting it from being 'dangerous'? I get it being highly inconvenient for people who prefer to allow lawmakers to do tax hikes and increase spending at arbitrary times. But I don't see how this could interfere with primary government functions in terms of law enforcement, courts, shelters, etc when responding to unexpected events... aka in an emergency, where it could be dangerous.
I too thought about this as Carmack mentioned that he believes it was one of his most important achievements that Apple adopted OpenGL back in the day.
It's not designed for pros. Linux is. Apple is about easy usage and they benefit hugely from having Linux underneath, which is why they even are considered by real pros. It looks nice and that's what people like.
You're not being consistent, and revealing your anti-Tesla bias. They have figured out to manufacture the Model 3, they deliver new serial numbers of that car every day of the week. And like I usually say in my replies in Tesla threads, it's really something to be grateful for that America is still a place where a car company can be built, and we should all share a collective pride towards those who have carved out the future for young Americans and young people around the world. I understand that you won't be buying a Tesla this weekend because they are not available but I really feel that the anti-Tesla bias is very much misplaced and resentful towards one of the greatest blessings of the 21st century.

Why don't they declare an emergency on the actual problem, chronic shortages of housing supply, and reform their zoning and tax/rent entitlements to fix it?

It's hard for me to take anything California government does seriously right now while they're ignoring the 10 ton elephant in the room that's causing almost literally every other problem.

If they don't start addressing this with a significant attack plan extremely soon, their tax base will leave the state in droves, and they will never raise taxes enough to make up the difference. It's an emergency, declare it one and do something real about it.
i3 was an early one.
The Bolt has weird details on its snout. It’s like the slots in the side of a dogs nose. Compare to the Chevy Cruze Hatchback which is much more normal looking.

The Cruze also has a nice subtle curve to the side windows, whereas the Bolt looks like someone grabbed the roof and yanked it up.

I am quite certain they intentionally keep their design A-team far away from the EVs.
This curve was invented to justify why consultant BS shifters are always wrong.
Have you ever been to the DMV? Or the Social Security Administration? The VA? The Post Office? Waited for the IRS? Waited for Zoning Commissions? ... Any government beyond the microscopic level can't maintain efficiency. Too many hands in the cookie jar.
Probably not going to entice companies stampeding out of github, but for solo and small groups, Fossil is an absolute godsend. The workflow and commands are similar enough to Mercurial and git to get going quickly.

Comes with a simple and almost no-setup-required issue tracking system. Beats setting up and configuring Jira or Trac etc.

For centrally-hosted Fossil repos, there is chiselapp.com. Not https though, but you can host your own behind any https front end.

A good guide is this pdf: www.fossil-scm.org/schimpf-book/doc/2ndEdition/fossilbook.pdf

Conversely, why would we presuppose it wasn't?

It seems to me the onus should be on the government, since they're the ones taking our money. Once they've (1) proven they spend our money wisely, and (2) shown they have real need of more, they should be given more.

The constitutional limits definitely have their drawbacks, but they prevent the frogs (us) from being boiled alive.

Funnily enough, this was my immediate concern, followed by Electron generally. It actually prompted me to go all-in on Vim: I've used Vim in terminals for a very long time, but never found a graphical Vim that I liked.

Git hosting and the associated tools are replaceable, the strength of GitHub is the network effect, so we'll have to see what happens. Regardless of what happens, we've progressed a long way from Subversion and BugZilla, so I don't mind if projects move to a more diverse set of modern hosting. Personally, I'll put my own public repositories whereever the community goes.
It does. Whenever I am going through the stories. Started a few days ago.
