I was looking at South Africa's biggest annual developer survey today, and lo and behold some are using it for coding work.
I would assume it's people who pay for Twitter pro or whatever it's called getting Grok as part of the bundle and not wanting to sign up for another subscription.
I heard a very small one somewhere that really isn't meant to get them, through a TV show in earbuds. Perhaps the volume has something to do with what's happening beneath the surface vs magnitude? In our case, as far as I know, the epicentre was a ~5h drive away (and out at sea), but it sounded about the same as loud subs at a concert to me.
Blanking on a source right now, but I recall reading about a study on the 'oldness' of languages and found that the unique sort of phonetics in !Kung and other Khoe or San languages appeared to reduce over time, and simpler hard consonants would emerge in their place - implying that they are indeed some of the oldest languages still around.
Interstingly, there are a number of words from these languages that are still widely used in South African slang: Dagga for Marijuana, Eina for "Ouch!", Gogga for Bug or Insect, and Kerrie for Stick, usually used as the neologism Knobkerrie. Very possibly some of the oldest slang in the world!
Spent a few months writing a pretty hefty Cqrs app in Go last year, had a fun but pretty unintuitive experience with rustlingss, and V really does seem like a cool in between! I look forward to taking it for a spin
I had always assumed it was due to Brendan Eich being the face of the project. Or the built-in adblocking. It's my preference for these reasons as a chromium default - I don't know anyone using Brave who touches the crypto stuff.
Thank you! That's super cool - I'm not nearly as familiar with data science as it sounds you are, I've just made some choice placements in building a UI around the Spotify API. They're hiding the nuts and bolts of turning a set of music feature parameters into a list of recommendations.
If I understand correctly, what I'm getting back from their API is basically what lies between, but without any of the interesting data they're using the do the calculation. One can hope, but I'd imagine that data is priceless to them and won't ever be available to us.
Hey, thanks for the feedback. Sign-in and saving to a profile was the most requested feature across the board when I previously launched Selecta, and as such it needs access to enable features that were requested by those who enjoyed using it.
I'd be more than happy to share what each of those datapoints is used for (and, in some cases where I only need an auth scope for one permission, but they're grouped together). Selecta is strictly open-source and anonymous analytics.
If you still want to give it a shot, you shouldn't need an active subscription for it to work. But I do totally get moving away from the streaming world. Even bandcamp is losing its ground as a safe a haven for making sure artists are paid their worth.
They really can be terrible sometimes. I loved last.fm too - still sporadically scrobbling at https://www.last.fm/user/Knightspore. But today my profile mostly serves as a record of music I had come across more 'organically' prior to mainly consuming via streaming services.
