Most of the content I watch on Instagram is people making things. It’s like visual ASMR. I watched a French plasterer tape and plaster a room yesterday. Weirdly engrossing. I think it’s because it makes it very clear how much skill and craf

Twitch is already licensed for publishing after it did a deal with the NMPA back in 2021 https://www.nmpa.org/nmpa-and-twitch-announce-agreement/ That’s primarily via the PROs - ASCAP, BMI, SESAC. E.g. ASCAP says “For

These MASSIVELY improved the outputs I get both in terms of general chatter about topics, but also code and interpretation of data. I don't like bullshit, I don't like hyperbole, and I don't like apology. You should assume t

I often find myself thinking about people in the older reaches of history, and how by many accounts life seems to have been - by our modern definitions - a less “purposeful” existence. One which, by modern standards, would seem to have litt

Apple Music does not require artists to upload lyrics, it’s optional. They just make it easier than Spotify where you need to submit through Musixmatch.

Ah, yes, sorry - I should have made it clearer that I don’t disagree that this is a problem, more that the methods they are using might make people more paranoid rather than giving them actionable ways to protect themselves. It is all whack
