I tend to come to the same conclusion. we communicate in characters forming words or sentences, symbols, and whitespace. As you indicate, text can be imprecise, but a good author knows how to phrase a sentence such that its meaning is better understood by a reader through varying techniques

Re:Streaming Is Stalling: Can Music Keep Up in the Attention Economy?
on Saturday December 19, 2020 @12:21AM (#25475293)
I wonder if there is a link between DCMA crackdowns and the decline of the music industry. Posit: with consumers watching more community produced content and that content prohibited from including traditionsl music sources that consumers may then seek out, then a result might be a decline in the traditional music sources. This might also apply to commercially produced content that doesn’t include music for fear of false flagging.

We’ve found the same behavior in normal person to person speech, so we’ve implemented a gag policy that nobody talks to one another during business hours. Ultimately, it’s person to person communication that we’ve found is the broken tool for, granted, a minority of users so we’ve implemented this policy company wide.
Re:Show HN: EventNative – An open-source, user event collection service

Is the intent for EventNative to be used as a way to capture events in an eventsourcing pattern, where custom events may be generated by microservices or other applications? A follow up if that is the case, how are schema migrations handled over time

The “public APIs form an immutable, irrevocable contract” argument means that an api layer with these tenants is always going to be a source of technical debt. Get it right the first time or fight an ever growing compatibility matainance war - even when your instrumentation is saying that old apis aren’t being used, just published, seems like a footgun
