It shifts the burden on the employer to make an alternative assessment of the applicant. If what they're using now isn't reliable, but convenient, why would any alternative be?
> Musician deserve to be paid for their work

If anybody actually cares even one tiny bit about a specific musician they should go to live events, buy the original merchandise and/or buy the CDs.

Paying Spotify and similar services is the least efficient way to get money into artists’ pockets.
Considered "dupes" by who?

I don't think there is an official policy (anymore), but people on the internet gonna' internet.

My guess is that whenever you submit "breaking news from mainstream media" there's a good chance of story duplication because submitting "breaking news from mainstream media" is so easy and therefore is low-effort for everyone else, too.

Good luck.
Don't forget the $3Trillion deficit for Covid. First done under Trump in 2020 then repeated by Biden in 2021 so it's not a partisan thing.
The downside, other than the obvious maintenance/reliability concerns of an aging vehicle is safety. Modern cars are much safer in crashes than 20+ year old cars. [0]

What sucks though is that basically every modern vehicle egregiously violates our privacy [1]

You already have such amortizations for a lot of things. In some cases this even gives you possibilities to improve your tax burden. It just means that you cannot deduct it all in one year. If you downsize a company to zero employees you still get to subtract salaries for a few more years against your profits.

It will set different incentives wiring wise and I’m not convinced they are good ones, but from this rule some people will benefit so they might fight the rollback.
I've heard it claimed that IPv6 was supposed to bake in IPsec as part of the core protocol which I think would have given you what you want, but 1. obviously that's not how history actually turned out, and 2. honestly I'm kind of glad that it didn't because I would rather not be stuck with IPsec forever.

For what it’s worth, theaters see it slightly differently. A movie ticket is rental of a seat in the theater.
A prosecutor has broad powers to force a person to defend themselves in court and take a chance that they may lose -- this is incredibly coercive.

You are letting a profit motivated entity hold those powers over its own contractors in order to threaten them with lengthy jail sentences unless they agree to pay back the contested money and plead guilty to a lessor crime (which then makes it impossible to ever assert you were wrongly convicted and shouldn't have to pay).

To add to this, a corporation is does not have a corporeal presence that can be held to account for doing something egregious -- they just get fined and anyone involved almost always says 'I was just doing my job, a cog in the machine' and that's the end of that, whereas if a public prosecutor was extorting the community to pay them large sums of money or face an uncertain trial where they cannot access the evidence needed to prove their innocence, then that prosecutor could be put on trial themselves.
For foreign contractors the time frame is 15 years instead of 5.

> Many of those who think their cars won’t charge are new to EVs and don’t know how to “precondition” their batteries, said Westlake, who has two Teslas.

I am a bit confused what’s that supposed to mean, because there is nothing a driver can do to “precondition” the battery manually. When you select a charging station on the navigation system, the car automatically displays a “preconditioning the battery for charging” notification once you start your route and starts preheating, and that’s it. I honestly cannot think of a way to make it more intuitive and uninvolved on the driver’s end.

And if you attempt to charge it without preconditioning (which would happen if you drove to the charging station without using the navigation system), the car would display a large warning once you start charging, saying something like “hey, next time navigate to the charging station using the nav system, so that the battery is warmed up and preconditioned”.

Outside of edge cases (like super cold temps that are outside of what almost anyone in the US will ever experience), preconditioning isn’t really necessary, it is just for faster and more efficient charging.
Ah sorry, I hadn't picked up on that -- thanks. But it still doesn't change the overall point at all.

So if you've got 2 albums of 10 tracks each, then you need 1,000 listens of each album to reach a minimum payout of $80, which you've got an entire year to accumulate. So Spotify isn't on the low side -- it's comparable with AdSense's minimum payout of $100.

But honestly, compared to the effort involved in producing an album, that's... nothing. $80 is not the difference between making or breaking your music career. It's under $7 a month. A slightly more expensive coffee.

I just don't understand how that can be upsetting. If your streams on Spotify are that low, then you're doing it as a hobby anyways, for the love of it. Which is wonderful. But it isn't your source of income.
Exactly--as a customer, I would love to buy elsewhere! Amazon is such a shitty company and I trust their listings so little, that they are the store of last resort for me. It would be super awesome if when I wanted a product, I could just... go the the manufacturer's web site and buy it. And there should be no mark-up because there is no middle-men. Instead of that, one of these usually happens:

1. The manufacturer doesn't sell its own products! This is usually the case. Often they will helpfully list "dealers" where you can go find it (which all charge more than Amazon).

2. The manufacturer sells the product but their purchase and checkout experience is brutal (and/or it doesn't accept my desired form of payment) and I drop out of the funnel in frustration.

3. The manufacturer sells the product but it is inexplicably 25-50% more than Amazon and 50%-100% more than used on eBay.

They might say they dislike Amazon but they seem to be doing everything they can to push their customers to them.
A lot of my teacher acquaintances have this mistaken idea that they should be paid a lot more because they are “teaching the next generation” or any other variation of that delusion. They don’t seem to understand that the reason they don’t make a lot is because a lot of people can do the job. As we can see from this story.
I think the games industry is just to competitive for subscriptions to work. Indie games are more often than not are some of the best games in the year and usually cost half as much as AAA games. Subscriptions could work but there are few publishers that have produced consistent quality games to justify it.

If it's not one of your core goals from the very start of your design, it's pretty hard to build a system where employees can't access data. Obviously you can do it, but it's not trivial and it's doubly not trivial to add after the fact.

Tangentially related, I’ve noticed on the google search console that they aren’t crawling or indexing my personal blog at all, basically.

I have to manually request indexing in order for my months old blog posts to show up on Google. I went from 1 appearance in search results every few days to 15 per day just by manually requesting indexing on my recent blog posts.

But what I find confusing is that even when I do this, Google won’t follow any links it finds when it eventually gets around to crawling my posts. I submit my site map and it won’t index anything new. I have to manually ask Google to index every new blog post I make.

It seems like small blogs like mine just aren’t what Google is interested in finding and presenting to users.

Yeah I just don't understand how paramount+ is so bad. I've unsubscribed but I got it to watch a tv show on a plane, and so downloaded it onto my phone. The app would NOT play the video on the plane. At first I thought for some reason it needed to connect to the internet. Then after landing it wouldn't play even with the internet.

Then there's the chromecast app. I want to watch an episode of survivor, a show with 45 seasons now. Apparently it just loads all the episode data for the entire show in one go, and hangs for a bit when opening the episode select page. This is one of their bigger shows I think.

It's just so lazy and bad.
The solution isn’t to then pay them nothing
Elected officials get into office with majority support of a constituency, but that's very far away from the majority of people supporting their collective actions while in office. In the US, politicians do what money wants them to, not voters. Consent of voters is often manufactured and misinformed.
Tech already does this and it doesn’t seem great? The STEM initiative beginning in the 70s is a national program to get lots of qualified workers into STEM jobs. And yet most STEM graduates don’t have STEM careers (51%). One reason is tech companies hire whoever they want based on their own metrics. Your suggestion just gives large industry more power and leaves people without stable careers or not getting jobs they went to school for. It’s like, why even go through the effort of a national educational system.

Well here's the thing, the people who think they might want to go back to play a six year old game are probably buying it, the people who play most games once and never go back are just going to get a better deal with this kind of subscription.

So long as there's always a choice to "buy" the game then I really don't see it as a problem. That's certainly Microsoft's approach with gamepass, I assume they and ubisoft both will happily let people give them $70 for a game if that's what the customer prefers.
The North-West Mounted Police was established in 1873 by the government of John A. MacDonald. The Cypress Hills massacre as well as the increasing number of conflicts on the U.S border due to alcohol smuggling are often cited as the main reasons the MacDonald government passed the bill creating the new military-style police force. However, most historians agree that the primary reason for establishing the force was to control First Nations and Métis populations, as the government sought to populate the West with settlers. Under the central authority of Ottawa, the NWMP marched West in 1874. The NWMP served as an arm of colonial control for politicians and lawmakers in Ottawa. For Indigenous communities in the Northwest, it represented an additional source of repression. The newly formed para-military style force was entrusted with wide-ranging powers and duties. Officers acted as Justices of the Peace, able to apprehend and sentence offenders, as well as impose Indian Act polices such as the Pass System. Since western courthouses did not exist at the time on the Prairies, NWMP barracks were often used for court proceedings and as temporary prisons. The NWMP assisted Indian Agents with the ration system, as well as enforcing laws obliging Indigenous students to attend residential schools. Government policies such as the Residential School system, the Sixties Scoop and gender discrimination in the Indian Act subjected Indigenous families to violence, cultural dislocation and land dispossession. The NWMP was successful in instituting a system of surveillance and curtailment, restricting Indigenous people to their reserves, regulating their land use and criminalizing livestock theft to benefit settler farmers and ranchers.

I’m a little suspicious about the authors characterization of using a wide variety LLM workflows as “management” - it misses things like training and supporting your supervises, and generally contributing to a healthy organizational ecosystem. I think a better analogy would be “specification writing”.
I would say that the problem is larger than that, with how Spotify worked to close up and monetize a historically free and open medium (podcasts) and aggressively pushed their new business to users who were only interested in music.

The way they deprecated libspotify while promising a fully capable replacement only to never live up to those promises (current APIs/SDKs are incapable of playback) to strip paying users of clients that aren't official also sucks.
Also, you can't figure out what to eat because instead of being indexed by nutrition information or by whether it contains potential allergens it's always indexed at the top level by subscription so you have to do a little inner join there on your napkin before you can tell your kid what their options are.
I think there are national differences here, schools around the world can be quite different from each other.
The argument is that this artist is only available on streaming, and that that's where most of their revenue came from?

When I pirate, it's sometimes based on convenience or quality (where else can I download DRM-free blu-ray quality movies? Or a band's discography lossless?), but other times, it's certainly about money. For example, I don't use FL studio anywhere near enough to warrant paying for it (I have literally just opened it a couple of times to play with it), but paying for a license would have been less work than pirating it. Same with Windows; I pretty much never use it, the last time I booted into it must be around a year ago, so I'm not gonna pay $250 for it. I like to have it on my PC however for the occasional situation where I need it to play some game which doesn't work in Proton with friends, so I pirated it, even though buying a license key would've been more convenient than dealing with cracking tools.
If we're comparing apples to apples all the time, sure. I think it's pretty obvious to most people who care to look that a 60w conventional bulb uses more energy than a 15w LED bulb (which, for the record, is the 100w conventional equivalent). Consider, however, these questions:

If my 2000w heater is running on the 800w setting and turns on when my room has dropped below the point I consider acceptably chilly and turns off above that point, how much electricity have I used in the last hour?

If I have 3 15w LEDs on a dimmer and run them intermittently throughout the day, how much electricity have I used in the last hour?

If my TV is off, but plugged in, and accesses the Internet a few times a day automatically to check for new versions, how much power has it used today?

I think this makes the case for, at least, a kill-a-watt style device. A whole home solution with sufficient report granularity and a report interface visible in the home would be worth the extra trouble, IMHO.

Edit: For the record, these are all real-scenarios from my house.

I think it's pretty clear that the importance of TSMC will decline at the same rate as the price per transistor decreases ever more slowly. Chip companies don't need the most recent node when it offers hardly any improvement per cost.

The slower the progress, the easier it is for competitors to catch up "close enough". Currently being two years behind the bleeding edge makes a significant difference, but not as much as ten years ago, and probably more than a few years from now.
I'll bite: Yes.

Manually-closing doors have pinch points, but every major manufacturer that has auto-close doors includes force sensing to avoid damaging things (or people, or digits). Power windows usually have this as well, at least on modern cars.

I think you're missing a few relevant things:

An annual spotify subscription in the U.S. is $99 (possibly less with boxing day deals and such), but I'd assume the majority of subscribers are outside the U.S. where prices are lower across the board.

But 6M of those artists may be AI-generated filler content, possibly published by bots. I don't think the correct idea is to divide the potential money people can spend by the number of artists. There should be some connection with what people are actually choosing to listen to, anything else would reward opportunistic publishers of low-effort, uninspired music (and encourage people to do even more of this).

Which then brings up the problem: If people were to fund one artist they listen to (lets say an artist they choose to listen to rather than an artist they accidentally listened to a song by once), are they going to choose at random from their list of such artists? How do they then get that list to pick from? How do they discover new music to potentially listen to more of in the first place

Apps like Spotify, (or OSS like YouSpot that piggybacks on Spotify) are both valid answers to those questions.

Then you have the dilemma of who's paying the cost of the bandwidth, and the development costs.

If you want to be fair, I think people should be encouraged to pay what they comfortably can with their budgets. They're using the infrastructure and platform of spotify (or similar) for discovery, so Spotify or similar should reasonably expect some money to cover costs and pay their devs. Then they can also pay any number of random artists whenever the mood strikes them.

If they can't afford spotify, they can still use YouSpot, kick the YouSpot devs one or several dollar per year, and then purchase music from their preferred artists up to the amount comfortable for them.

Using YouSpot is the closest actual thing to 'stealing' btw, because they're actually consuming a resource (bandwidth and server time) that's intended for subscribers, from a company that pays for it. Add to that, by using their software (and spotify's upstream), if they're not financially supporting the YouSpot devs and the Spotify devs for the work they're consuming then we're back to the initial claim (which I already said I disagree with) that consuming something that can be 'copied' ad infinitum without paying the producer is theft.

But I think any of the above are reasonable options for people who want to maximize the support of creators of the things they consume while staying within their means
The root reason is that Tesla is made by and for people who assume that they will never ever be at the receiving end of a power imbalance. (edit: to them) More surveillance equals more opportunity to use power, not risk of ending up on the other side. The mindset operates on not identifying with former winners, as in the idea that luck might change e.g. through an unfortunate health development is completely ignored.
I would love to teach high school but there would need to be some major changes to the system before I would be willing to.

What I really want is to be able to teach the kind of CS courses that I took in high school—they were optional classes that kids chose to be in because they were interested, and the teacher had full discretion on what to teach.

Unfortunately, that's not the typical high school class, and most teachers have to teach at least a few mandatory classes with curricula dictated at the state level. Props to the teachers who are willing to deal with reluctant students and enabling parents, but I would go crazy in that environment, and I've had bad experiences trying to teach curricula handed down from on high.
