someone should have a restaurant POS that learns patterns. oh, this is the pattern of drinks through a night that's common. oh if one person orders this thing, someone else will too (the fajita effect). then again, a human learns that in a week.
oh man. I should be looking for one rest of Godfrey Reggio's work. apparently Once Within a Time is showing locally, but it's at a time I won't be able to make.
hey your math is wrong ... I thought my metric was a value, because that's what you're presenting it as, but on doing the math, this is actually already a percent, so you're right, my math is wrong and your dashboard is misleading.
@33MHz I'm not sure how those are related things. that's 3 pretty different data points. and the local venues seem to be tied to their ticket seller more than anything.
@joe I mean, if you're going decentralized, that sounds like the labels making their own instances and that's kinda weird and appropriate, but I wouldn't expect good/consistent tech from that. Do you know of a model like you mention that already exists?
@joe I always get confused by the encouragement to download your music off of Bandcamp because that's literally how I consume it. I download it basically ten minutes later. And then listen to the CD when it shows up. Streaming is weird.
@joe so yes and no. the artist still benefits from using it to give them money right now. it does make a profit, as far as I can tell. it's only that it keeps getting bought that make its future uncertain. it's not a model problem.
