Expressing a preference between two choices is not how I would measure what listeners want. What they should have been testing is whether the listener ends up playing the track over and over and singing along to every word of the track. I t

If you read the article, he is not saying that Israel doesn't have a right to defend itself. He's saying that Israel's right to defend itself has been a lie told to justify the genocide they are carrying out in Gaza.

If you are looking for the "call to action," you are missing the entire point of the article. There have been millions of calls to action for over 50 years and they have not made any difference. The point is that we must sit with

Over 70% of Americans oppose data centers being built in their local area, yet they continue to be built, even when local elected representatives publicly oppose it. It's easy to see who really has the power and how futile elections ca

It's a great idea if we subsidize it the way that fossil fuels are subsidized.

You cannot separate "taste" from the question of "why do I make things at all?" because they are inextricably bound. The reason for your making something is where taste is expressed.

Or you could just work hard and put your kids through college by making an honest living producing an honest product. Greed is what is destroying our world, and it is also the obvious one-word explanation for what happened to Talenti.

For the accumulation of wealth and power. This is the natural consequence of unregulated capitalist incentives. Do you think the corporations care about the individuals?

"There are many reasons to use subsidiaries for things like this, like to invite outside investment, ringfence risk, cede operational risk,..." In other words, they are intentionally deceiving investors and hiding the risk from th

Maybe you are correct that there is no such thing. But that is a different argument. In the U.S., from a practical and business standpoint, IP theft does exist because there are laws that are passed to prevent it and enforce consequences.

I agree. I think it's also a curation, taste, and trust problem, which is where the record labels can step in and shine.

Because it proves that even the greatest prompt-engineers in the world are unable to vibe code their way out of a simple bug. The fact that this example is a small, annoying, random bug that is relatively harmless does not mean that the nex
