Just use scopes in the API key the agent uses? If you’re exposing something publicly that should be a requirement anyways. That’s how I use gh, aws, etc. No need to modify any of the code in the cli, they’re just wrappers.

BERT came out in 2018 and that’s a pretty important inflection point. It didn’t cause a pop culture frenzy, but in NLP circles it was a ‘magical’ improvement.

This is exactly the process happening in the music space with Suno. Go to their subreddit, they all talk about how they only listen to ‘their’ songs, for the exact reasons you list. Its bleak out there.

Spotify makes over 80% of revenue off of paid subscribers, even though over 60% of users are on the free, ad-supported subscription. Now that's not some optional donation scheme, there are real tangible benefits to being a paid subscri

The concepts here apply to any client-server networking setup. Monoliths could still have web clients, native apps, IOT sensors, third party APIs, databases, etc.

They definitely do both, in the public recommendations API you can see vestiges of the old EchoNest acoustic properties along with some new ones they’ve come up with. It’s fun to play around with. https://developer.spotify.com&#x

They’ve been pretty open about the pricing strategy on the blog. Earlier this year they said they were losing money on most accounts at $10/month. They’ve since changed the pricing tiers a few times, but it sounds like they’re in a bet

Jay Vine recently said in an interview that last year his max hours per week was 30 and that wasn’t training, it was a big week in a grand tour. His coach at least seems to be on a mid 20s hours a week approach. Jay implied this was a chang

I've used vim's conceal feature to do something like this before to read some ridiculous code that had 16 space indentations. You can use this for all sorts of fun things like making lambda: render as λ. That doesn't use any

Not sure what list you’re referring to, but I would expect to find Python and Scala in it, maybe OCaml or Haskell depending on the criteria. Personally I think it causes more problems in interpreted languages, a lot of those disappear with

I don’t think you can describe at least Sweden and Norway as monocultural. They’ve had waves of immigration since the world wars and I think Sweden had the most immigration per capita in Europe during the Syrian refuge crisis. That’s not to

This uses librespot, not the original library that Spotify published and recently killed. Mopidy is also moving to librespot, but it's complicated with their gstreamer architecture (though I believe its mostly functional at this point)
