I'm sure they could care less about the artist's feelings on the matter.

That said, artists should check the name use before putting out records.

I've emailed and DMd the artist's Insta with the info.

I suppose and it's not a massively original name, but one is a signed artist with a major label and the other is some rando. Typically, the (larger) labels try to protect the artists names just from the perspecitive of protecting their investment in that artist. 1/2

The nice thing about Better Stack is they are PAYG for most of their features. So, you aren’t forced into massive feature-gated tiers; you pay for what you want to use. I don’t always like this kind of pricing mode. Here, it’s working well for us to use the tools we need and have a budget for.

The current scale and team is tiny-ish and ambitious. ;)

Defining “reality” is the strategy the republicans and fascistic right wing parties use with great effect. Even if nobody believes them it diminishes the truth and allows fictional narratives to justify actions and manufacture consent.

Yep. Still around. Still massively flexible. I’ve been working there since 2009 and using MODX for 19 years.

Simple is better for most. Returns diminish fast and there’s a pretty high risk of static and created with such observability. If there are specific nodes in a system that are prone to reliability issues, I’d just find ways to monitor and add more error state or latency handling at each end.

Better Stack and StatusCake are good for front end monitoring. We’ve used Data Dog and now use Grafana OS with Prometheus and Loki/VictoriaLogs for our servers. Log aggregation and querying is nice to have for web sites. I think the allure is there to have infinitesimal observability.

Related, Facebook, Insta etc putting the fucking ads on reels where their own gen'd captions show up. This might actually be a situation where the ads would be better up top since most of the action almost always in the bottom half of the frame. Optionally, the gen'd captions could be at the top.

I’ve had scintillating scotoma episodes on and off most of my adult life. But it’s good to get it checked out if this is new to you.

Ultimately it’s about supporting the mission of the business. So, that definitely includes LLMs and search engine ranks, however often people lose site of the purpose and instead of writing better content they try to optimize sub-par content endlessly.

The language governments have used in recent decades has been to soften the blow for privatization and profit taking. Services don’t lose money, they are investments in outcomes.

Do you know what will happen when CPC is privatized? Rates will go up and more workers will be exploited in sub-wage jobs. It should never have been a corporation and been a service like the military or Parks Canada. They aren’t profit centres and don’t need an ROI.

Save for the fact that most LLM scrapers are so aggressive at scanning websites they can crush the servers and continue to do it over and over again.

I do not like site owners to have to make design decisions either. I prefer the have constraints with extras such as pre-defined design patterns that work in pre-design ways for certain contexts and content types.

Fair. MODX is more of a content management framework with a CMS UI that can also be tailored the the project. It does require a web dev (mostly front-end) to build out the site and then it's mostly to the client to fill out fields or drop in custom, pre-configured design/content components.

I'm rather biased since I work at MODX, the company behind MODX Revolution CMS and MODX Cloud. I do keep an eye on other modern CMS and content delivery systems. Lots of cool stuff if you can ignore the FOTW stuff coming out of the JS world.
