It’s clear you didn’t read your links because this one concludes with:
> "Scholars in China and at the UN have analyzed these and other data. Not a single person has 'discovered' such a huge discrepancy." ... "China has had at least three censuses since the start of the millennium, and there has been no evidence that more than 100 million people are overreported in China," Wang said.
- Yes, and it boggles the mind as to why they did. Biden was quite the pro-worker president. Biden saved the Teamsters pension fund and then still the Teamsters officially wouldn't endorse him or Harris. To have your retirement rescued so spectacularly while the opposing party was throwing stones at it and then go on to vote for that opposing party who would have stopped that funding if they could... I just don't understand.
- Seems like a minor thing to change IDEs over. Would a Zed task that runs the relevant git command work for you? e.g.
You can even throw a keybind on it if you'd like:// ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/zed/tasks.json [ { "command": "git --paginate log --follow -p -m -1 ${ZED_FILE}", "label": "last-file-diff:${ZED_FILE}", "shell": { "program": "sh" } } ]
I am not familiar with gitlens so not sure how close this gets you but you should be able to replicate the functionality you need from the git CLI and some light scripting. This can be a jumping off point maybe. If you want to view the diff using the zed diff viewer, you can do so using `zed --diff`, as demonstrated in this GitHub discussion: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/33503#disc...// ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/zed/keymap.json [ { "context": "Editor && mode == full", "bindings": { "ctrl-shift-g d": [ "task::Spawn", { "task_name": "last-file-diff:${ZED_FILE}" } ] } } ] - Short sighted to prioritize career over life. Few people in the US have any self-worth or identity outside their career, at least IME working in tech. It saddens me greatly. “Productivity” is a disease. Some of my closest friends have no idea what to do with themselves outside of work. No one lays on their death bed wishing they worked more.
- I’m sorry, but you can’t find five minutes (if even) to read an email? No way your day-to-day life is so completely composed of things demanding your full attention that you don’t have a couple minutes to read an email. You typed out this comment, presumably after reading the thread. Surely you have time if someone you know sent you an email. You could read it in the time it takes to brush your teeth.
- No problem! You might also consider the iTunes Search API [1] to power your search functionality e.g.
[1] https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Au...curl 'https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=jim-e%20stack&entity=song' | jq - Cool project! I have never been very satisfied with the existing services for collaborating on playlists.
I think the experience could be improved if you branched beyond YouTube for the media. I search "jim-e stack" and see multiple non-song videos (in fact 3/4 are not songs). One idea might be to use a service like https://odesli.co (formerly song.link) to filter to real music tracks people are familiar with on their streaming platforms. Their API returns links to Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube, etc for a given music entity (e.g. song, album). Furthermore, integrating with Odesli would offer a path towards allowing users to drop Spotify / Apple Music URLs directly from their respective apps into the jukebox, which I think would be my ideal experience.
My $0.02. Thanks for sharing!
- While I agree with the spirit of your message, you picked the wrong artist for this particular line:
> every piece of song writing […] is micro-managed by an entire team of people
No doubt this is true for many many pop artists, where there are literally teams of people with song writing credits, but for Taylor Swift, it is almost always just her and Jack Antonoff credited with songwriting and composition, and not uncommonly just her alone. Say what you will about her, but she writes her own songs.
- What, exactly, is so problematic about not telling your parents that you smoke weed with your friends before playing video games? What, exactly, is so problematic about not telling your parents who are dangerously religious, that you had sex with your high school girlfriend? These are all normal, innocuous activities of teenagers. A therapist would not think twice about hearing them.
- This doesn’t make sense to me. What does it matter if you have their attention first? It’s asynchronous communication. I find it so damn rude to demand my attention first before you begin typing out a long message. Like do you want me to watch the chat bubble animation while you type or something?
- Perhaps Mozilla will spend money more effectively now? I'm not sure and frankly I don't care. For sure, it will be a sad day if Firefox formally goes under[1]. Still, it wouldn't change the validity of the decision to forbid these payments, spin off Chrome, etc.
[1] I think Firefox will survive. Orion browser, which has been my main browser for maybe a year now, was developed with far less money than the Firefox budget and something like only two people. Is this a fair comparison? I have no idea.
- "Cutting off the funding" is the most insane framing of the situation. It makes the DOJ sound like the wrongdoers or ones responsible here. This "funding" should never have happened in the first place. It totally distorts the economics of web browsers while also giving Google undue influence over the whole ecosystem. But sure, some browser developers will no longer be receiving some income, so let's allow it. Makes zero sense.
I personally am excited to see what changes. Who cares if it costs more money for Apple, Mozilla, Microsoft. There are real costs to browser work that they should be feeling. Even if it slows down feature development, so what? I don't see how this can be worse than the status quo that got us here.
