This is seriously awesome, I recently bought an AM/FM stereo to keep up to date with the latest technology and it was really lacking the feature to geolocate stations.

you're not wrong that time is running out, i'm 35 too

It's your choice to think about your age, personally I just do whatever I want

35 is not too old to go to bars, there are tons of bars and clubs that specifically cater to people in their 30s

but really in my opinion you are good to go out as long as your health permits you to

i have a rack of servers right next to me, i'm not a pro sysadmin

just because your average developer today lives and breathes AWS and PaaS doesn't mean it's impossible to use the bare metal

It's possible Rogan hasn't said anything yet because he's going to try and sue.

imagine if someone could tell you what you can't not publish on your own website

this is the new "freedom of speech" sentiment

Re:Joe Rogan episodes disappeared from Spotify today on Saturday February 05, 2022 @07:59AM (#30220566)
at any rate I think within a month or two we'll see the court case when Rogan inevitably sues them

i'll be rooting for spotify

your point is valid, but I would argue that by leaving content up on a website you're sort of publishing it at will

suppose you posted a picture I took of the grand canyon on your website

you paid me for that picture, so you have exclusive rights

you take it down?? ehhh maybe if you prevent me from publishing it elsewhere now?

this will be in court for sure

perhaps the dictionary website is showing you something different than me

Denying to publish a work is not the same thing as preventing the public from accessing it.

By your logic any academic paper or book that a publisher turns down is being "censored"

that's my point
Re:Joe Rogan episodes disappeared from Spotify today on Saturday February 05, 2022 @07:32AM (#30220405)
Spotify taking Rogan's stuff down is not an example of censorship, since they are a private enterprise and retain the right to decide what content they publish.

It would be censorship if the FCC (or similar Swedish org) told Spotify they had to take it down.

Rogan is free to go publish his bullshit elsewhere.

yeah, an article in a publication where the authors are anonymous because the views published in it are painfully true enough to make you real life enemies

Seths' bike hacks on youtube has a few videos on this topic, honestly if you give the bikes a solid tune-up they'll suffice for normal riding, but if you put them to the test they will break

>"MSc in some science (like it matters)"

a formal 400-level course in algorithms will go a long way, preferably at a good university with a good professor, but if you can't get that right now: https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-compu...

computer science is a discipline where people seem to think the education doesn't matter that much, but the truth is once you start to get even a little mathy it matters big time
