Wow, the language on this website is really on-the-nose.

As I was reading through it, I legitimately could not tell if it was a legit business or satire (and I still don't know).
Didn’t miss much. It’s very long and mostly complains about copywrite and applying traditional ethics.
Besides this being the kind of argument people have been lobbing since the dawn of rock'n'roll, you're slapping a broad brush over a period in music where you have access to more songs than literally anyone in history. And not just more access, but more songs, period. I guarantee if you like the notion of listening to a new band but also sort of really just want to listen to "Jungleland" again like the first time you heard it, someone made that song yesterday. The music didn't change, your priorities did. If you want new music that fits your taste, it's never been so easy to go and find it.

The next location or tour people are highly incentivized to snap up the tickets as soon as possible rather than waiting. This can't be the first you've heard of such a strategy.

One with patents.

I presume that if we didn't have patents for processor architectures, competition would have made these practices completely unviable, and we wouldn't have had a decades-long duopoly in the CPU market.
The modern equivalent to Gangnam Style was probably Billie Eilish's 'Bad Guy' in terms of ecumenical appeal but in terms of internet-spawned reach, TikTok is generating these hits every year. If you can't name anything Taylor Swift has done in the past 10 years, you're missing out on her strongest and most mature songwriting. From 1989 to her latest album, this has been Taylor Swift's golden era. The rest of the world is aware of this and I hope you'll take this opportunity to jump on board.
"Oh no, but what about the companies and their shareholders...."

It's funny because I used to work for one of the largest corporate owners of real estate globally.

Companies should be allowed to own properties, sure. What doesn't work is bringing corporates into the residential rental market. Housing cooperatives should be allowed though.

This should not be downvoted. It is a gaping loophole that ought to be closed, but downvoting it won't fix the problem.

Also, it is the "Foreign Earned Income Tax Credit (FEITC)", not FITC. It covers only wages/salary, not dividends+interest. And it is $120k/yr currently, not $110k:

However there are even worse loopholes in the FEITC. Due to a bungled tax treaty, US persons at the Pine Gap facility in Australia who are not US government employees pay no tax to any government at all on that first $120k:

The title should read modern GNU tools. Linux is a kernel and supplies nothing useful for command line lovers.

Nonetheless, the more modern tools are generally better, faster and more feature rich. I'd pick them over the older versions unless there was a compelling reason not to.

Yes, I've used both. For almost forty years now.
awk, sed etc. belong to the museum, now that we have so many tools and libraries that can handle structured data.

The whole early Unix obsession with plain text files was a step in the wrong direction. One grating holdover of that is the /proc filesystem. Instead of a typed, structured api you get the stuff as text to be parsed, file system trees and data embedded in naming conventions.
I use tmux (and before that, screen). Same paradigm as tabs, with a few benefits. Might work for you unless you are really set on actual tabs.
Thom Yorke did this when I saw him live in Oakland. All tickets had to be picked up at the Will Call counter, showing an ID. Then you could only go into the venue to the ticket check from Will Call (there were temporary barriers guiding the crowd).

On the other hand, I had an extra ticket. I did manage to sell it for face value by organizing the deal just as I approached the pickup counter (someone else knew how to play the game), and we did a quick cash transaction for face value.

Seconding this. After a while you start to hear the rhythms in it. The apocryphal stories about its creation make it all the more fun to listen to and it invites challenging your own preconceived notions about what you like about music (i.e. does it really matter if he Actually Made It or if he just shoved a bunch of guitars up against amps and let the reverb play itself? And even if he did is that different to Actually Making It anyway?)
Nearly all jobs today were enabled by the automation of previous activities.
Yes, the obvious solution to the scalper problem is to drop the tech and go back to physical ticket sales outlets. You stand in line, buy a ticket, present your ID, and you receive a ticket with your photo printed on it and a QR code containing your ID info (encrypted if necessary).

At the venue, someone checks your photo, and you scan your ID, which must match the one on the ticket.

But Ticketmaster would never do that, because they make too much money from scalping.
Most economists believe that price gouging is completely fine. Anti-price gouging laws lead to a misallocation of resources and lower supply where it's needed.
If <Popular Artist> wants to reward true fans, why aren't they making their own fan club, with id-verified accounts, and then sell tickets to them first?
the distribution he gets from these posts outweighs that imo
ChatGPT is a fantastic usecase for this. Last week I had to extract a bunch of data that was in some nested arrays, pasted a json sample into ChatGPT and asked it to use jq to extract certain fields when certain conditions were met, a couple of tweaks later and I had exactly what I needed.
I have some of those shorts myself. IMO, they're surprisingly good -- some of the best shorts I have.

Sadly, I fear that I won't be able to find those shorts again to buy any more pairs, because of the way these brands pop up and then go away again so quickly.
Another thing to say about embracing "dumbness" is that, although hard for some experts, speaking in simple English makes them much more approachable. Many technical experts, like specialized programmers, or academics, will speak with so much jargon and context-specific language, that it becomes difficult to work with them.

It takes a bit of bravery to stop doing that, and there is a reputational cost sometimes, as the author says:

> For example, if you are in a professional environment and you are expected to have a certain level of expertise, pretending to be dumb might damage your credibility.

Still, it helps everyone in the end. You as the expert can connect with people outside your field better, and learn new things, others will have a good time working with you.

Just to be clear, here are two examples of the same statement:

> The process segfaulted after a race condition dead-locked threads on a mutex fread resource. Neither thread initialized a pointer to the read data buffer before use, so the pointer was garbage.

> Two parts of the program got stuck fighting over a file, so the program couldn't read it and failed.

Both statements might sound the same to a software engineer. Maybe the first one even sounds more informative and "better". But even to a computer-literate colleague, so long as they are not technical enough to code, the first could just as well be white noise. They wouldn't know what the issue is, how serious it is, how hard is it to fix, how much time it will take, what parts of the operating system or the computer were involved, is it something within the grasp of their engineer colleague or should third parties be involved, what is the damage that's done to a system running this code, and so on.

I've read a lot of academic papers filled with excessive jargon, too. Sometimes they write about the most mundane, day-to-day things, but it's difficult to make heads or tails of even just their abstracts. The purpose of an abstract is to tell an uninformed reader if the paper is relevant to them. If the average reader is expected to be informed about the paper's contents to the same extent as the author, what's the point of even publishing what everyone knows? The jargon-filled language can be self-defeating, and certainly often defeats the whole purpose of communication.

What exactly does depressing the clutch do as compared to not doing it and starting the vehicle in neutral? Is it to reduce the engine load further? Or something else?

Yes, and that is not necessarily a bad thing. Dedicated fans get in first.

With falling prices of houses, rental prices will also fall, making the entire real estate business unappealing. That would have the effect of reducing building material cost significantly, if there's no demand. Builders and developers get paid for their other contributions to the process though, so while their revenue will decline, so will their costs, which will keep things stable enough. The ones fucked will be corporate investors who buy from developers to rent them out to individuals (and to some extent those developers who rely on inflated house prices).

> If a reseller buys the ticket, and then sells it again to the end user, Ticketmaster gets paid twice.

Yeah, but Ticketmaster doesn't own the tickets.

Nor do they decide the fees. Or even keep most of the revenue from the fees. All of that is decided by the promoter, possibly with the artist (if a big enough name) and to some extent the venue.
It was pretty easy ten years ago too, but somehow it remains a problem.
It’s really simple. If you want to sell your art, AI can produce it for you. If you like making real art AI can recommend which watercolors, brushes and clay to buy. Art as a product will be the domain of AI. The fun and awesomeness of standing in your cluttered atelier and creating something with your hands is for humans, enjoy.

Extra transactions mean extra credit card fees, the artists would strictly be better off with demand based pricing. Ticketmaster however gets to double dip and play contract shenanigans.

As a general rule more complex contracts favor the side with more experience. For example many people get hosed when leasing a car, there’s simply more levers a dealership can adjust to favor themselves.
>It can't explain what consciousness is, it can't explain why consciousness ...

You are stating the obvious. Its not a science but philosophy. You looking at is as if it were science explaining reality misses the point. That perspective does not apply here.

You are doing the exact same thing you are concerned about, treating a philosophy like a science. Just that you are worried about it being applied and relied on like as science while at the same time trying to verify or discredit it like a science. Your initial idea of it not being a science was quite right, you just havent applied that insight throughout your model. This includes what standards you apply and how you look at it.

Or to put it differently, Plato didnt loose anything when we figured out that matter wasnt just a combination of fire, water, earth and air. That wasnt the relevant point, it was a reference allowing you to think about something else in a specific way. Trying to look at details of that story from a scientific perspective is not much different from trying to build a physical model of the solar system from the bible.

Its just not a sensible thing to do. It corrupts your reality model and lets you do not very sensible things based on not very sensible convictions and judgements.
I wish it was much more specific, but they do at least say that the green-marketed products are significantly better on average.
Your mischaracterization of HTTPS as obscure is baffling. I guess you aren't in tech or anything older than you is "old".
Interesting. I've wanted to build something like this for years.

Thank you so much for sharing these links!
Absolutely. And I dare say the consequences for Lou were plenty positive. He was a rare example of an artist who did exactly what he wanted and had the fortune to make a lasting career out of it. You can look at his collaborator-slash-foil Iggy Pop for another example, albeit sort of on the other end of the spectrum. Dude shows up on all kinds of stuff that probably does nothing for old purists but piss them off, but he's got nothing left to prove and he's having fun doing it. If people want their artists to be jukeboxes, they're gonna love it when they catch up to the invention of the iPod in 2001.

Says Billy Joel most likely far richer than at least a typical front row seat buyer. Btw while I would consider myself a fan I'm not obsessed with Billy Joel and also he has certainly how do you say 'his issues' (ie addictions and so on).

Also who is to say because they don't act ridiculous or obsessed they aren't 'real' fans. What is a real fan anyway? I hadn't heard there was a universal accepted definition.

People use ipfs to download hosted (by someone) things, so it is a fit. Have a look at https://winworldpc.com

Also, the Internet Archive uses web seeded torrents to accomplish the problem of insufficient seeds rather than throwing them into the ether (non-crypto variant) and hoping for mirroring by wishful thinking.

Conclusion: Centralized, unicast-like support for p2p is possible and useful for download-oriented clients.

IPFS Desktop in particular: One shitty thing they did was auto re-opt-in to telemetry without asking the user. With that kind of sneaky bullshit, I refuse to run it. IPFS lost trust and is unable to communicate how their "solution" is useful or make it usable by humans who aren't IPFS Desktop developers.
Unclear how a rich person can even be defined at all. It's a pretty wide swath of differing income levels as well as assets.
Lol, International Drive is miles long, most of which is quite far from Universal. And you're claiming there is a shuttle from Disney's Contemporary to Universal? I don't think so. From a Marriott somewhere, sure, but then you aren't within the bounds of either park and will always need a shuttle.

Please tell me how many families from Miami or Ft Lauderdale you expect will voluntarily leave their car at home and take a train instead, knowing they will be reliant on hotel shuttles and Uber the whole time?

Lots of wisdom in this.

It's tiresome to be a know-it-all. I've had so much "free time" to randomly absorb trivia and surface-level study things that I have an opinion or factoid or anecdote about everything. But what do I stand for? Where does my expertise lie?

One of my neighbors was a Ph.D student, and I offered her some magazines, and she said she doesn't read anything outside her subject matter, which is plenty. And I knew a church lady who told me "I don't read any books other than the Bible." and I admired that sort of focus.

And independence begets loneliness. If I'm nitpicky and pedantic and I criticize how someone else does things, especially doing me a favor or a service, then I'll end up doing it myself, and that works for a while, until you forget how to ask for help, and nobody wants to help you anyway, and worse yet, nobody asks for your help either, and you haven't helped anyone out and so no mutual favors are owed.

Conversations with my parents can be frustrating, because I can be desperate for advice or direction, and I can even ask something that is exactly my father's area of expertise and experience, and they'll just say "we don't know" and it's just my cue to work it out for myself. I'm an adult now, I put on my big boy pants and deal with the real world. Mom and Dad embrace dumbness and continue their narrative of neighborhood gossip that dominates our phone calls.

Receiving no reply at work: indicates I asked in the wrong place. Coworkers know it's not their job to compose an elegant message with a helpful link to redirect me. Or, in a live interaction, "let me look into that [and get back to you]" is the classic way to shut down an inquiry that is not in their wheelhouse.

Having someone help you out, especially if it's a trivial thing, strengthens friendships and you bond over this common shared experience. Interdependence isn't weakness, it's being human.

Also the fact that it's assumed that everyone attending wants to sit in the audience and go crazy and MAKE SOME NOISE. It can and is annoying to many people.

One other thing is artist may want an active crowd for their own benefit ie they are making a video live recording for further sale or to post to youtube whatever. (Point is good for artist but not for many all of those attending).
Source? The talk slides seem to contradict that:

>● CF workers will be required to set their “Domain Lockdown” record in order to send emails after a specific cutoff date (TBA). You’re still able to spoof all the things until then!
They are implying that because they were already told they were "gifted/special" when young (IMO this is wrong encouragement of self-esteem which causes them to lose touch with Reality) the world owes them the same consideration when grown-up and they face failures i.e. the failure is not their fault.

One thing i see on HN/Reddit/etc. forums is that people nowadays are not willing to admit their failures/mistakes but eager to use excuses like a) I am a Perfectionist b) I was a "gifted" child c) Everything was easy for me when i was young and i did well d) I have Asperger's/Autism/ADD/ADHD/etc. Other than in rare cases none of the above excuses hold water. We are all of "comparable" Intelligence (bell curve, two std. deviations and all that) with enormous potential if we learn from our mistakes and put forth effort to do better next time. The insidiousness of the above excuses is that it saps our very motivation to do something better and change the status-quo but falsely cocoons our "ego" thus making us lose touch with Reality and destroying our own lives.
> contradictions in the Bible

The church selected the relevant books, written by many authors over 1000 years. While some evangelical sects may claim internal consistency, it's mostly a straw man. The sources/purposes of the relevant books explain most inconsistencies already (namely that most Jewish law doesn't apply to gentiles, because Jesus was a new covenant with all peoples.)

Gospel harmonies deal with the biggest hole: The gospels don't have any reason to be inconsistent. But that's easy to respond to too: They were written in response to other writings, each other and popular ideas, in dialogue with each other, just as the "historical" books etc. or modern history books and internet comments are made in dialogue with each other. Christians say this approaches truth, where the order of events of Jesus' thorning are less relevant than his message of love etc.

This lens leads to many interesting readings, e.g. the bible can be seen as a vengeful god killing off other gods (by his chosen people killing worshipers of other gods) and then learning to be nice and instead choosing all peoples.

For my type of business, which is more B2B, cold calling and cold emails have worked the best.
