UBI needs to be framed more as a dividend. It isn't the safety net. It is profit sharing.

Here's how you find new music: peer to peer. Soulseek is what I recommend. The value is unlocked when you search for something relatively niche. You'll find users that have what you're looking for and can then browse their shared directory and download other stuff that you haven't heard of but appears interesting. If you like what you find, buy it. P2P is life.

Smart phones also leak data. While you didn't mean this, I do think there's some sympathy here - the people that don't care about their data being out there because they 'have nothing to hide' probably feel the same way with their genetic data being out there.

23andME need to figure out a follow-on product to get the folks that have already taken the base test to purchase. Otherwise they have no new market to address.

Really dude? Semantic much.

10 BPs.. Also if they're letting the fraudsters continue to use the service (why wouldn't they if they're generating risk-free fee income to KitSplit), the fraudsters are likely more active the typical users. So if 1/1000 users are fraudsters and fraudsters are 10x more active than regular users, odds are 1 in 100 that your gear gets stolen. Ludicrous.

Terry Gross interviewed him on Monday's Fresh Air: https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2018/11/12/6669336...

I enjoyed it.

Are people upvoting this or have several people simply tried to post it?

They're protocol. Without a trusted party in the middle, there isn't a market.

Pay for it or forego it. Don't steal.

I think we should legalize and regulate personally.

Or maybe the employers should quit hiring them?

I know several people with access to Kodi that don't regard it as theft/piracy. They become pretty defensive when you accuse them of it. How do you think IP owners can adapt when piracy is made so transparent that it doesn't even feel like piracy anymore?

Excellent for camping trips.

Depends on whether the music was recorded/mastered using digital or analog equipment.

Depending on what you're listening to (and more to the point - how what you were listening to was recorded/mastered), an analog medium sounds better. Same can be said for a digital medium, of course. It is a tool box. I put the tools I need in the box.

In that light, medium does somewhat equate to being an active listener - you evidence that you care about how the music was made in the first place.

The Velodrome is not still in use. There is an outdoor concrete Velodrome in East Point which is heavily used, but it was not an Olympic venue.

Why is this reply so similar to the one above? How long have the bots been on HN?

We've come full circle to AOL. Everything is curated and walled off.

Hello HN.. Atlantan here. Frankly I find this armchair speculation from the west coast a bit comical. Coding as a trade is a thing at this point. Look at the coding bootcamps that function basically as an apprenticeship/trade school. Where does the target audience factor into it? In terms of capital, a) money is everywhere - that's why they call it money and b) the southeast is home to at least three top 20 banks and Atlanta is a huge payments processing hub.

You should visit.

There Will Be Blood is my preferred postcedent.

This is not scalable.

And what grows out of the ground is mine to modify and decompile provided I don't distribute the derivative.. oh wait.

In my mind this is the best advice - the only I would follow. Don't respond to the raving and incensed. Instead let them pursue remedy with the relevant authority. Then state your case to said authority. All will circle back to the original party, and they'll buy the explanation: authority granted not only because they're the established authority but also because they were independently engaged by the original party.

Similar sentiment from a musician to a fan. Fan writes he did something highly unusual - bought a record rather than pirating it: http://pwelverumandsun.tumblr.com/post/132240206696/fan-lett...

[Meta comment.] It is a shame you can't get credibility points for downvoting.

Even that has been upended, right? Smartphones, GPS, fish locating tools.

Eesh. Comparable replacement tickets refers to a similar seat at the same event - price really isn't a factor. Nice piece of acrobatics on their lawyer's part tho.

Age old problem. It is why PayPal exists. Arbitrage on transactions where trust is a problem. SH could warranty to make a comparable ticket available on any consummated transaction - probably they should given the reputational loss they've incurred.

SH has no mechanism to ensure delivery of the ticket. The seller holds the ticket, so how can SH compel them to hand it over - short of not releasing the buyer's payment to the seller. Short being the operative word. SH is running a speculative marketplace against n% insurance fee on unfulfilled sales.
