Late last year many residents of our building formed a neighbor-owned company in order to add a solar array to our roof! A few days ago they got the final panels installed. It’s not turned on yet, but seeing this much progress made me so proud! 🤩

This is fucking bleak on Spotify:

'The [former Spotify] employee explained that, "the vast majority of music listeners, they're not really interested in listening to music per se. They just need a soundtrack to a moment in their day."'

Music changed as a response to this:

'Songs got shorter, albums got longer, and intros went away. The hook got pushed to the front of the song to try to grab listeners' attention immediately, and things like guitar solos all but disappeared from pop music. The palette of sounds artists pulled from got smaller, arrangements became more simplified, pop music flattened.'

📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms).

It’s also concerning. 1/
