Billionaires control nearly a third of all American wealth and pay a lower tax rate than pretty much everyone else Pretty weird hearing politicians saying we can't afford stuff without including this minor detail

Don't tell me the legal profession is so much more complex than the tech profession to earn a billing rate of 3-4x. Bullshit.

@12tonevideos are you talking about a performance? a song they wrote? an arrangement they have done? or a mix? or a master? these are all different things.

Question for folks who believe there is some way to objectively measure the quality of an musical or artistic work/experience: How would you describe that metric? Along which axis (or axes) does it operate?

I think there are way more lazy freeloaders at the top of the economic pyramid than at the bottom.

Career lowlight #42: Being forced to choose between was better for someone else's company and my personal compensation and/or health. Again and again and again and again.

Career Lowlight #22: That time in 1997 where I had to take 6 trips to SV (Palo Alto, Mountain View) but then had to take a 7th because I had no time on any of those trips to visit with my friend who lived there.

Everyone talks about career highlights on their resumes and on Linkedin. I have been thinking about "lowlights" recently.

@Sean_Abel @its_adamneely Any Dr. Beat metronome will be pretty high quality. I understand the attraction to the wooden metronomes (especially because they're so pretty) but they will always end up less accurate than the plastic/metal ones.

I think 2 bad things happened to music production in the '80's. 1) a bunch of new tech that sounds bad now 2) cocaine. Lots of cocaine.

@justinbaragona Modern Republicans lie, lie some more, and then double down on the lying. I think it's because the "ultra-wealthy are important and do good in the world" false narrative is collapsing (finally).

You don't have to agree with anything Rebekah Jones has said or done to still see the rank hypocrisy from Ron DeSantis here. He literally signed a bill last month that he touted as "stopping the censorship of Floridians by Big Tech."
