I've wanted to learn Music Theory for about a decade (only learned guitar tabs as a teen and to read sheet music as an adult). Love what you made and just got the premium course.

Some guests who got theirs removed complained on twitter, so this seems unlikely.

The part about the algorithm might be referring to when you first join TikTok. THEN it shows you the most popular videos at the moment, adjusting quickly to a more personalized feed based on viewing/interaction behaviors.

Ben & Jerry's spent less than $5k on Facebook and Instagram ads last month. They'll get more publicity value from joining the boycott vs. paying to run ads for a month or two.

Rdio used to be my favorite app for music discovery before it got acquired/shut down.

I was a heavy Tumblr user until I discovered Reddit around then, which made it easier to find the same type of content with more consistency.

> If schools aim to boost students’ future income by teaching job skills, why do they entrust students’ education to people so detached from the real world? Because the aim of school is to teach compliance, to sit quietly for 8 hours a d

Not sure why your comment is getting downvoted. It's absolutely true. It was obviously said as a joke.

Yep, the videos that autoplay on kids content can be super creepy, borderline fetish/brainwashing content. The channel H3H3 summarized a few of the videos (Spiderman and Elsa come to mind). YouTube didn’t take action against those vide

You likely mean ads for TikTok which Musically merged into after being acquired.

As someone who has made a lot of humorous memes professionally for brands, I agree that these aren't memes but are cute, funny pictures.

I don't understand the hate for Elon (though the response to Unsworth was disproportionate). His offer to help seemed to stem mainly from a curiosity in solving the problem and having the ability to potentially help. Great PR wasn&#x27

One difference is that YouTube vloggers are kinda the new celebrity. A lot of kids would rather be vloggers than Hollywood celebrities.

You have to know things about weather and reading maps that you'll never use when flying a drone, bu it only takes a weekend of studying to pass the drone pilot test.

Flying a drone is much easier than most people think (at least drones from DJI or even the GoPro Karma). To not become a commodity, you have to provide something on top of just flying a drone to produce photo/video assets. For example,

I've read dozens of books on storytelling and Invisible Ink is one of my favorites.

As a marketer, videographer, and someone with a sweet tooth, I agree that it's a bad ad.

As a marketer, videographer, and someone with a sweet tooth, it's not a great ad. Get to the point. Show the actual product. Tease me with things I can expect to receive. Maybe show reaction videos of people opening and trying the cand

That seems very excessive, though regulation so far has been positive. Not that this is you, but fear of "voyeurism" is often said by people who aren't familiar with drones. I've owned multiple drones and would never con

I've found baby advice books to be 85% fluff/filler and 15% actionable advice. But that 15% can dramatically improve quality of life / the amount of sleep I get each night.

Snapchat has object recognition. With a ton of photos/videos stored in memories, they could get a decent idea of one's interests based on object recognition and text used in Snaps.
