A lot of third party integrations to improve accessibility for visually or physically impaired users were caught up in the restrictions designed to destroy RIF Apollo etc. Spez vaguely said reddit would fix that, but it basically just resulted in improvements to base reddit for those users thrown into the bottom of a low priority dev list never to see the light of day.
I think this will tie in with updates to the CDR legislation coming soon. These digital wallets hide a lot of data from the banks. Bringing them under banking legislation allows banks to pull CDR data from the wallets as a condition of use.
You mention your discover weekly. Do you know how that algorithm works? It suggests songs that you have not played, that other people who played songs that you played. It's the same positive feedback loop. It's songs already popular that it promotes to be played more. Which makes them more popular so it recommends them more. And thus you end up with the most steamed artists only making 15% of the content.
Does it work? Passably. For the majority, mostly generic listeners. Is it a fair way to structure a platform and to dispense payments? No. A great business model however.
If you make a great song, and Dua Lipa makes a crap song, which one would be featured and added into playlists by Spotify's algorithms? It's not a level playing field. It doesn't promote content that isn't already popular.
Which is mostly due to Spotify's playlist and algorithms. Which fall victim to the positive feedback loop issue. Those popular artists are suggested, promoted, and played more frequently so more people hear them and thus play them more. It's not a level playing ground. It's a self generating walled garden of artists.
95% of the royalty pool goes to 200000 artists who generate 15% of the content. Sounding less fair the more you look at it.
Not really. The LLMs use tokens instead of actual words to understand the words. There's a layer of disassociation. That's different to taking pre existing knowledge, understanding it, and using it to divine more knowledge.
Some Australian stuff in the 90s was... Interesting https://youtu.be/CkpP8ElRfYk?si=Xz3-x6tjrv-pOI4P
I'd agree with you if we were already producing enough renewables. Since we need to triple the current renewable market just to hit 1.5, I don't agree with resources going elsewhere until we are on track there.
To prevent exceeding the 1.5 celsius increase, we need to triple the current uptake of renewables. I can extinguish a candle and say its carbon negative, however it's not really going to help. We can look at other carbon reducing technology after the immediate requirement for renewable installations. I'm all for that, but right now, it's just taking money time and resources away from renewables when we can't afford any delay.
Carbon capture has had trillions and decades and still can't reach reasonable efficiency rates. Certainly real world performance is nowhere near what it would need to be to make a contribution to the environment.
The companies investing in CCS are the companies mining fossil fuels and natural gas. They are using CCS to divert funding away from renewables and to greenwash their current mining operations. In most cases the material captured is used in further mining operations. Like a 2xdmg to the environment bonus.
Yep, arresting a 47yo for smoking will be very on point for a broken clock.
Keep in mind, this will be policed only on poor ethnic minorities. Rich white guys in their private club s will still smoke with impunity.
Have some savings in case of emergency. A few thousand at least.
Work out a budget. What you earn, minus your bills + 10%, is the money you have for fun. The 10% helps prevent bill shock. Personally, I record the amount of the last four bills and average them then add the 10%. Seems to work.
Inherit or buy quality cookware and learn how to cook. Quality isn't necessarily expensive. And good cooking is cheaper and healthier than anything else. At the start doing meal prep recipes to cover a week would be good.
Still plugging back into nioh 2 when the mood grabs me. Such a perfectly balanced system.
It's also a feedback loop. They suggest popular music, which exposes it to more people, which makes it seem more popular, which means it gets suggested more...
Go on, have a google. The weight has consistently and distinctly and excessively changed. Surprise reveal, the changes only ever give you less product for the same, or higher price.
I mean, it's a particularly bold type of stupid. Other poster claimed the air was for freight reasons. I asked for the source, and there was none. If you bothered to at least google, there's plenty relating to air in chip packaging, including Pringle's. Pro tip for amateur googlers: Add shrinkflation to the search to get specific results!
Which is my point. There is no reason to increase the air in a Pringle's can. They have reduced the size of the can, increased the amount of air, all in the name of shrinkflation. Same as other bagged chips. All the excuses is just marketing bs.
