While I agree that music has become more homogenized and crap than ever before, I think Rick here is just applying incorrect beliefs to this process. I think the only point he makes that is valid is that finding signal through all the noise

I find it interesting that we're in a post truth society now, and it may not mean what I think it means. While considering your last paragraph I realized that post truth doesn't necessarily mean absence of fact. It's simply p

I agree with you, but it's just simply not how these things are being sold and marketed. We're being told we do not have to verify. The AI knows all. It's undetectable. It's smarter and faster than you. And it's jus

AI is only useful for me if I have a good idea of what the answer might already be, or at least what it absolutely can't be. It helps me get to an answer a little bit quicker, but it doesn't perform any absolutely groundbreaking w

This is one of many reasons I do not invest directly in stocks. I have enough b.s. to think about in my day to day life. Index funds for the win, I guess.

Alternate theory, both are true. Western societies took advantage of multiple other societies to plunder their treasures. Those same societies didn't have the infrastructure and/or care to preserve these things themselves. Sometim

At my parents house, the squirrels often kill and eat bluejays. I'm the winter they hide the wings in snow drifts. When the spring thaw comes there will be dozens of disembodied bird wings scattered around the yard. I thought it was co
