Are Country Bassists Worth Listening To?
New blog post: Are Country Bassists Worth Listening To?
I recently came across a question on the r/Bass subreddit asking simply, “Any [country] bassists worth listening to?” There were a few responses disparaging bass playing within the genre, and there certainly weren’t a lot of people coming forward with names of players. I wanted to chime in and defend a genre I have come to like (from an initial position of complete disdain), but I didn’t have…

Making Music With Depression
I started seriously pursuing music in my mid-teens. I was lucky to find myself in an environment where I had support and guidance to do this. I have not ended up quite where I expected to. There are lots of reasons for this. In my case one of those reasons is my mental health and how long it has taken me to begin to understand the role that has played (and is playing) in my life. In the 2013 UK…

Historically, being an elected prosecutor was a sweet gig: operating with “unchecked power and no transparency,” you generally got to run unopposed for re-election, and on the rare inst…
Prosecutors are the reason that so many Americans were put behind bars on the basis of flimsy forensic evidence based on pseudoscience. Prosecutors are the ones who make the call not to prosecute cops who gun down unarmed black people.
But things may be changing. This article is about a law review article on how some “hard line” prosecutors are being voted out of office and why.
We have many of the tools to change our society. We only need to use them.

Startups making hardware have no choice but to deal with this new reality.
Products posted to Kickstarter are being copied by firms in China before the Kickstarter window even closes. This raises some interesting issues about the intersection of different viewpoints on commerce.
Kickstarter is a feel good platform for both the fundraiser and the supporter, but for commercial products it exposes them to wider attention at a vulnerable time. Many will not be patented yet and even if they are the company is unlikely to have enough capital to fight a claim.
Sometimes exposure is a bad thing.

Adults, we seek out new experiences. Children couldn’t give a fuck. All children care about is mastery. It makes total sense. Put yourself in their position. You spend every single waking second being told what to eat, what to wear, where to go and when to sleep.
Then you get this video game. All of a sudden you are the master of your own destiny, you are the king of this digital domain. The sheer power Children must feel in these universes, with their clear rulesets, and comforting, unchanging worlds. The more they play, the more sense it makes, the more fun it becomes.
There are lots of interesting things implied in this short article.
(via Press Release: New court judgment finds UK surveillance agencies collected everyone’s… – Privacy International – Medium)
In a highly significant judgment released today, The Investigatory Powers Tribunal has found that the UK’s intelligence agencies were secretly and unlawfully collecting bulk data on people in the UK without adequate safeguards or supervision for over a decade.
If you don’t think this stuff matters I would suggest you read Cory Doctorow’s YA novel Little Brother. Mass surveillance profoundly alters the nature of our social contracts with those who would govern us.
(via Figuring out what to do with Trump's base means admitting they are racist / Boing Boing)
[I]n order to heal the great divide in the United States we're going to have to admit what Trump's popularity is all about: a fading, racist white majority is struggling to maintain primacy.
The reframing of a privileged majority as an oppressed (soon to be) minority is perhaps the defining concept of this post-truth campaign.
Every new police shooting increases the calls for reform, accountability and transparency. Unfortunately those calls don’t usually extend to the media which, in many instances, acts as cheerleader for law enforcement instead of skeptical observer and...
Control of language is key to control of the perception of a situation. It is a powerful method of maintaining the status quo. This article looks at the use of language to portray victims of police violence as guilty (of something) and to reduce the reckless behaviour of the police as normal procedure.

How I expect Apple’s iPhone 7 reveal is going to play out today
As proof that Trump knows the job itself would bore him, note that The New York Times reported the following: One day this past May, Donald Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., reached out to a senior adviser to Gov. John Kasich of Ohio, who left the presidential race just a few weeks before. As a candidate, Kasich declared in March that Trump was “really not prepared to be president of the United States,” and the following month he took the highly unusual step of coordinating with his rival Senator Ted Cruz in an effort to deny Trump the nomination. But according to the Kasich adviser (who spoke only under the condition that he not be named), Donald Jr. wanted to make him an offer nonetheless: Did he have any interest in being the most powerful vice president in history? When Kasich’s adviser asked how this would be the case, Donald Jr. explained that his father’s vice president would be in charge of domestic and foreign policy. Then what, the adviser asked, would Trump be in charge of? “Making America great again” was the casual reply.

This is a really interesting phenomenon. If you watch to the end of the video Mr Tokieda discusses how each individual ball is still behaving as you would expect it to if it were in isolation, but the balls together create an aggregate behaviour that is the opposite of that.
I wonder if there are parallels in social psychology to do with perceived intention and group interactions?
