is there a tool that lets u share a playlist in whatever platform you listen to music, and it makes a link with duplicated versions of that playlist on every other music platform?

so when you send someone a playlist it doesnt say anything about how they should listen to it?

posse for playlists?

in the parking lot at the 7/11 listening to ambient music waiting to meet up with a friend, winter sun is bright, ice is melting on the windows

this thread could be seen as an argument towards more solutions like @cblgh social-norms-based crdt-replacement idea

"One of the simplest CRDTs is a set that can only grow"

-- this makes sense, but not every collaboration or process can actually be mapped onto "a set that can only grow"... that is a very specific subset of all collaborative problems

so what I'm really saying here, is using CRDTs is not just a technical issue, its also an issue of figuring out what collaborations actually make sense as CRDTs, which isn't something ive yet seen written about much

this feels like the "not every problem needs a CRDT" lemma from the similar "not every problem needs a blockchain" issue

e.g. this article https://vlcn.io/blog/intro-to-crdts (not making the claims, but as a background for talking about this)

"""

A CRDT is a data type that can be:

- Copied to multiple machines

- Be modified independently by those machines without any coordination and for any length of time

- All divergent copies of that state can be merged back together in any order and by any machine. Once all machines have seen all divergent copies, they're guaranteed to have all converged to the same final state.

"""

however, if you think in more human terms, if a group of people is collaborating on a document (e.g. a document of by-laws), and two different sub-groups modify the document in different ways, there wouldn't really be a guarantee that their changes could be merged in a coherent way without an additional human process of conflict resolution. this is a not a technical problem, but rather an inherent property of resolving collaborative decision making processes.

i feel like some descriptions of crdts are making impossibly utopian promises in confusing technical and human "consistency guarantees" (or maybe im missing something)

i guess its probably applying css to "google_ads_iframe" or something to block it ... and just also happened to be applying css to the iframe in lichenmarkdown in a way that was preventing me looking at a bug ...

weird computer thing:

(my tiny version of uncovering the xz exploit)

while looking into a very specific bug in lichen-markdown, encountered a weird thing in inspector where stylesheet link was being replaced with this weird string that mentions google_ads_iframe

i thought, weird, i definitely didnt put any google_ads_iframe into lichen-markdown

i went through different browser extensions, and found disabling DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials, got rid of this ... i dont remember installing that extension ... and maybe this is intended behavior and i dont understand what is doing ... but I needed to disable it in order to look at and fix the bug i was trying to fix ... and i feel like continuing to keep it disabled as that string looks weird and is confusing to me

being a caretaker of different servers, all with private ssh keys on the laptop, feels like being a node in root network. such a direct connection across long stretches of space
