Electronic and Experimental Music: Technology, Music, and Culture by Thom Holmes.

I'll add a few other resources:

1) Soundcloud (the free version) is the best way I have found to find new music:
https://soundcloud.com/

2) NPR's All Songs Considered and Tiny Desk Concerts are also excellent:

https://www.npr.org/sections/allsongs/

https://www.npr.org/series/tiny-desk-concerts/

https://www.npr.org/series/761983313/tiny-desk-playlists

3) Bandcamp has a surprising amount of music from around the world and you can almost always listen to everything before you buy. When I find music via bandcamp it is usually via small labels I found via someone I found out about elsewhere (small labels are not usually the "sign your life away" type so one artist is frequently on a bunch of small labels that have similar music). The website is not that great, look for label links in the upper left of the page (and when you go to a particular album it will often go to the artist's page outside the label and you can find their music on other labels from there). In addition to the Bandcamp Weekly that someone else mentioned they have a bunch of lists with short (meh quality) articles and a bunch of music that you can listen to right there. Note: beware of excessive PayPal currency conversion fees if you buy something in a different currency, either use a credit card if those fees are reasonable or transfer money to PayPal and convert to different currencies on the wallet page and use those pre-converted funds.

Also, the history of music can be broken down into the history of instruments and of the movement of people.
There are several things wrong with your post. For one, Google/Apple selling your driving data to an insurance company is not likely happening today. This would be the same type of mistreatment of personal information as it would be selling your health data to a health insurance company. Not that I know, but I highly doubt that personal driving data is being shared with insurance companies from big tech. If they are, this would be a huge privacy agreement violation and would cause a massive lawsuit action against said companies.

You're also being misled to believe that these driving trackers will actually reduce costs for drivers. In fact, they only serve as a means to raise insurance premium on drivers that don't qualify for the absolute best rate. Did you ever run a stop sign? 5 MPH over the speed limit? Change lanes without signaling? This level of detail is possible with very accurate GPS and will only serve for the insurance companies to raise rates on most drivers.

There is absolutely nothing good about this move from Toyota, and other auto manufactures will no doubt follow suit. This will likely be yet-another-erosion-of-privacy that only serves big business.

You should not so easily desire a "you are the product" relationship with auto manufacturers.
The author incorrectly assumes:
- completely rectangular
- all columns/rows have the same 'length'

Go try a pre-1950s 'pasttime puzzle' (wood). Most are rectangular, but certainly not some absurd same-length rows and columns.
I just willingly put one of these tracker in my car. I barely drive anymore due to Covid and USAA is attempting to charge me 180 per month. Metromile lets me pay 70 dollars a month + 12 cents a mile. No brainier decision at that price point unfortunately.

> Real fairness is everyone playing against the same rules and being treated the same under the law.

That is symmetry, not fairness. By your definition someone born with a disability should not be accommodated (because everyone has to be treated the same by your notion) and possibly left to suffer?

Or is it fair that you are enjoying products made in countries by workers that never had have the same rules and treatment you had? What did you deserve to get that, other than sheer luck of being born in the current circumstances?

Doesn't familial conditions differ so hugely that no one is really playing against the same rules and treated the same in the formative years of their lives, effects of which amplify for the rest of their lives?

No one gets to define "real fairness" without expanding what their normativity is about. And your notion is about symmetry for a subsection of civil life, not about the complexity and entirety of real human lives. I guarantee you if you were born into different circumstances you would have a very different sense of what is fair.
My zoom stock is doing quite well, thank you very much.

Fortunately, the specific violations have been compiled by the world bank, as pointed out in a sibling comment.

I just have one part I found incredibly funny

> The idea that the British were somehow exploitative by resisting renegotiation is ignorant of this fact

If overthrowing a democratically elected government is not exploitative, I don't know what is. "Resisting renegotiation" is a very Orwellian way of phrasing such. I'm guessing something along the lines of "we will topple your government and hand over absolute power to a brutal dictator if the terms are violated" was also part of the the agreement?

What about all the other Iranians, the ones that had nothing to do with APOC or oil or the government. Did they also "deserve" their fate?
You know, the moment the pandemic hit, the layoffs at Uber and Lyft came and the recent disappointing earnings and the worker classification ruling, it was just screaming "short me".

Lyft in particular offered some deranged predictions thinking this sort of market is sustainable and reaching "profitablity in 2021". This was them last year [0], this was them four months ago [1], and this is them now [2]. They seem to have used a malfunctioned crystal ball for that prediction.

Airbnb seems like they are now escaping for an IPO, but I'd rather short the stock until it reaches below its IPO price. This virus is not going away any time soon.

> united under the Ottomans

The Ottoman empire was every bit as colonial and extractive as any Western power - the same favoring of local ethnic groups over others, the same subjugation of native cultures.
Yeah, I was talking to the immediate commenter, not the parent. I can understand where you're coming from with my off-topic comment; it was not intended to imply anything about anyone on the thread as such, nor was it a response to the op. It was just a lament of a frustrated person when it comes to their field of study.

I don't know all that much about how it's done there, so I can't really answer that.

I'm assuming you're talking about kids in the Outback, where vast distance makes it harder to have classroom instruction?

There was a recent NYT article about that[0], and my takeaway is that it's really homeschooling with support from teachers. Not a Zoom videoconference where they fake like they're in the same classroom. The parents are much more involved in the early years. Once the kids are old enough to know how to learn, then it can become more of an instruction/homework style of teaching rather than what's required for preschool and Kindergarten kids.

A lot of teachers tend to have really high emotional intelligence which makes them great caregivers, but may not have great tech skills. I'd love to see school districts provide more professional development to teachers in effective strategies using online teaching. I don't think this is even taught in teacher's college. But hopefully now with the world changing, this will change as well. I'd be happy to provide training to any teacher who wants tips on using technology to teach. The great news is a lot of teachers are really highly motivated to learn and really highly motivated to teach well so I am sure they would pick up these skills quickly given the opportunity.

I knew virtually nothing about tech, but one day I got the idea 5 years ago for a tech startup that could help kids. I was forced to learn about technology to make it work and benefited from a lot of great mentors along the way.

Even 5 years later, I have a sharp learning curve, but a lot of the parents in my group are engineers and have helped me come up with good activity ideas and technology ideas and been really patient with me as I learned to apply them.

I bet a lot of people in this group could help their child's teacher. If you reach out, I bet your teacher would be really grateful and eager to learn too.
That's true, I think they started looking at creating one but it never got off the ground. From my personal perspective I don't, and can't (I've tried), take decent notes on mobile. On the move I just use a jotter it's quicker and move flexible.

There is risk in any action taken due to the fundamental lack of information regarding events occurring in the future. I agree with you that much of it is luck, this at the same time does not mean because one is born lucky that they now need to suffer to bring someone else to their level. I disagree that it is meaningless, I believe that since no one person is entitled to anything from anyone else (to think otherwise would be to support slavery), the only morally correct form of interaction is through consensual voluntary action.

I do not think we need checks and balances. Minimum wage actually harms those who are most disadvantaged - if I am hiring two people and I must pay them the same amount, there's no reason I would take the socially less valuable person. At the very least, eliminating the floor would allow the disadvantaged to compete and make racists pay for their prejudice, i.e. "Do I really want to pay $10.00 for a white straight privileged [whatever insert here] or $5.00 for a black trans [etc]".

Inheritance tax is violence against those who pass on their wealth. If you have indeed earned so much that you would like to ensure your lineage, what right does anyone else have to stop you? Why is it wrong for you pass on wealth to your children? Whose business is it? What if instead, you simply lived a thousand years and kept your wealth?

If you want to donate money because you are very rich and have a lot of money to spare and truly believe this, then by all means, you can even pay more in taxes nowadays and never file a return. Nobody will stop you.
I disagree that gaining support for and enacting a carbon tax would take decades. It won’t be easy, and maybe isn’t probable, but a mass movement could make it happen.

To your other point about private solutions being good because they move the needle a little:

In my personal life I shop sustainably (but I’m not perfect or obsessive about it). I do think it’s a little better as a consumer to make ethical choices than not to.

But: the rhetoric around climate change as something individual choices will fix is extremely dangerous. If you ask your average person about what we can do to fix climate change, I’d guess most would go straight to market solutions. Why is that? Could it be because that’s what the entire marketing and media establishment wants us to focus on, because a collective solution will cost them a shit-ton of money?

Yes in a different world it’s not either or and we’d have individual and collective solutions working together to save the planet. In this world, however, the powerful have a vested interest in market-based solutions being the only options on the table.

Basically, yes I agree that ethical companies are better than unethical companies. But on a macro level, propaganda around ethical consumption is so dangerous imo that I’m not interested in contributing to it just to move the needle an imperceptible amount.
During a pandemic, that’s the point! You don’t want desperate people staying in the workforce and spreading the virus which kills more people. Having people stay home is what was supposed to happen!
Spoken like somebody with no skin in the game. Go preach this nonsense to small business owners that have had their livelihoods taken from them and see how long you can keep your head above the parapet.

> Support temporary benefits to your fellow citizens.

What benefits? Support how? Prayers?

Support that small business in your community with your wallet.

> Also congratulations for not caring about a 1 in 200 chance of death.

Where's the data to back up any close to an assertion like this?

You betray an inane non-appreciation of what is actually happening to people economically.

Go out and spend your money, support local businesses.

Edit: To address the claim about the 1/200 rate directly, that number is based on bogus 0.5 - 1% global IFR estimates that haven't been controlled for any demographic group. The IFR for people under 70 is less than 0.1, and likely much, much lower for under 40. And that's not even controlling for anything except age.[1]

The virus has killed 175k people. Brazenly defying pandemic restrictions is not “minor rule breaking”.
>>Yes, we can't shut everything down but you'd think the article was about shutting down grocery stores

Ahh the old "essential business" justification.

Every business is essential to the owners, employees and even customers that depend on those businesses. I do not believe it is the proper role of government to tell people what is and is not "essential" to them.

This is with out getting it into the corrupt policies many local government employed where by some businesses where allowed to operate due to political reasons, but other similar businesses were forced to close again for political reasons.

Then there was completely illogical enforcement where small retail businesses where forced to close even when they were doing Online Only sales and the only person in the store was the owner.[2]

Mike Rowe is correct: all workers are essential.[1]

Fast food has always been about efficiency, consistency, and streamlining. If Flippy has existed in 1961 when Roy Kroc bought out McDonald's it would have been a fixture in every location.

Making fast food isn't a job "meant for humans", it's a job humans perform for the legal minimum of pay. The moment fast food chains can replace humans with Flippy without a PR backlash they will do so without hesitation.

Reality still hasn't hit the travel industry yet. We still haven't even begun to see the impact of covid on the economy start to unravel.

Business travel is done, but this is where a huge amount of airline and hotel profits come from. Travel is dirt cheap right now because, at least in the US, airlines have to fly. They can't lay off employees or reduce staff until, currently, end of September. But once they can I suspect we'll see very different behavior for airlines.

Beyond that we still haven't started to feel the full impact of all the job losses, and the people who remain employed but at substantially lower rates, or in more volunerable positions.

The relatively young travelers that make up a lot of AirBnb's business, have largely not been concerned about the virus, certainly aren't concerned about future economic impacts and have mostly seen cheap flights with hotels unwilling to book so they head to a rental.

These are travelers whose optimism is based on a decade+ of perpetual economic growth. Even those losing their jobs don't really believe that there can be a prolonged period where it's hard to find work.

I believe that this coming Fall will bring a lot of reality to the forefront. I suspect leadership at AirBNB has similar thoughts and wants to get that IPO before the buzzer.

I tried a lot of different web conferencing apps and zoom was the only one that had good enough audio and visual to make it remotely possible to teach effectively. Google meet was a total disaster with a group of more than 5 kids. But, I was lucky to have parent in my group who were informed about options and could give me advice in getting going. I think it's great if teachers can take advantage of emerging and established technology if it helps them teach well.

that's a disingenuous argument because the scale and breadth of the 2018 flu season vs. what covid continues to do are not in the same league at all, by an order of magnitude (see below). there was not a global lockdown for the 2018 flu season I recall, there will not be one for a future flu season of similar magnitude, and the point remains that it's a logical fallacy to suggest the covid lockdown represents the action that would be taken for a 2018-style flu season because there is simply no comparison.

Thanks. I agree on further consideration that stereotype isn't quite the right word. It seemed that vague terms like "horrible" were not likely to mean the same thing to different readers, in contrast to the way that more tangible accusations might stand up and be more universally understood.
Hey,

I'm the original co-author of the "Conventional Commits" spec. Although, I should give credit where credit is due, and say that it evolves directly from Angular commit conventions.

I started adopting these conventions with the goal of automating releases, both on my open-source and on the services I was working on at npm (I've since brought the practice to my team at Google).

I very much did not want to introduce road blocks to folks committing to their own branches -- which is what the "rewrite the message when you squash" advice grows from.

Here's a post I wrote on how my team uses Conventional Commits in our release process:

I don't think the book is closed. Thermal and TDP downclocking are still present.

It would have been nice to see the vcore and thermal values graphed as part of the benchmark. Do they increase faster for AVX-512 vs the other instruction sets?

I've had problems in the past with Sandybridge, where AVX hit thermal throttles before SSE. I ended up having to disable them in my build because of it. Presumably, the same behaviour would be seen here now that the vector unit is wider and there are more densely packed transistors flipping.
As someone replied I researched a similar service years ago to get a friend's transaction unstuck. Usually just a credit card payment and the tx id and they mine it.
That still doesn't make it illegal. It only makes it non-viable from a unit-economics point of view.

Now if you want to talk about how larger companies have better unit-economics, and small companies can suffer with high minimum wage, then we can certainly have that conversation.
Even if they sell the game on Amazon, they still pay Microsoft a royalty for each game sold. Whether you want to call it a "licensing fee" or a "Microsoft tax" seems like a matter of semantics. Also keep in mind that their publisher agreement with Microsoft gives Microsoft approval rights over the game itself, marketing materials, and even packaging. And if they sell virtual goods in the Xbox version of the game they have to go through the Xbox store and pay Microsoft 30% of that.

The amount of control console manufacturers exert over the games allowed on their platform is not dissimilar to the Apple and its App Store.
