Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow One of the greatest albums of all time. If you like Dilla and DOOM that’s the only logical choice.

Same. The OP article is interesting, but was hoping for more than a few wiki links of past instances. Is there more verifiable evidence for this instance? Don’t doubt the claim, just curious.

Absolutely agree. I’d argue Blazing Arrow by Blackalicious is one of the greatest albums of all time. And that came out in 2002, eight years after Illmatic. Blazing Arrow is such a seamless and well thought out album from start to finish. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blazing_Arrow

It takes maybe six months of skipping tracks

Lol, I look forward to good results by the end of the year? Maybe not the best algorithm after all.

I personally don’t have one particular way of discovering new music. It’s a mix of suggestions from different apps or friends. Shazam during movies and TV also helps guide some discoveries. Also just clicking through a rabbit hole of suggestions and marking stuff you like for future digging.

The article mentions “Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment”. https://www.alliance4creativity.com/

Looks like a group that takes down piracy websites.

I assume MPA refers to “The Motion Picture Association”. They keep changing their name: “The MPA, originally called the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA) and later the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA)”, then abbreviated to MPA.

Just clarifying the abbreviations since it isn’t really explained/articulated in the article.

A bit misleading but yes, 1000km is what they are talking about. Also the article doesn’t address scalability.

I never used Twitter actively but used it for announcements and live events happening. Now when I go to a page for updates it shows me (maybe?) the most active tweets from the past. For example, I’ll check the MLS page for game delays, the MLS page will have the post of a delay on their site, but if I go to the MLS Twitter it just shows posts from years ago about some goal that is so irrelevant for what I am looking for. I could list many other examples of how useless it has become…
