I grew up singing. I sang everywhere I went, I wrote songs in my diary, I told teachers that I wanted to be a singer & songwriter when I grew up.
But wanting to be a musician in 2006 required resources that a low-income family didn't have. My parents couldn't afford to get me any instruments. They couldn't pay for music lessons. They couldn't get me into studios. A dream I had became just a memory, until now.
I am beyond proud and honored to get to work at a company that is enabling music creation for everyone. For the 13 year old kid in their bedroom who dreams of being a musician, you can be one. For all of the professional artists, you can do more of what you love.
I really wish Suno existed 20 years ago when I was a kid in elementary school, showing strangers songs I wrote with no way to produce them. But I'm really, really happy that it exists today, for all of the other kids who might need it.
We are still just getting started :)
My two favorite quotes from Exocapitalism:
— “The only death known to exocapitalism is the void it modulated when it first created something out of nothing.”
— “One cannot bargain with an algorithm, with a protocol, with an abstraction machine.”
"We don't want to be a country that's involved in dropping bombs on innocent men, women and children"

Unpopular opinion: sprints, backlog, epics… these are just made up things. “Can it get in this sprint?” Who cares. It does not matter. You can just do things. It’s all arbitrary. 90% of work gets done when it has to and everything else is overhead

A simple cummerbund would have improved this outfit, as it would have prevented the shirt from peeking through below the coat's buttoning point. Compare Albanese to Stephen Smith, who served as a member of Australia's Parliament.
Uni managers are so completely out of control. They do what they like, are accountable to no one, and simply focus on chasing big salaries. https://t.co/5KK6DBqMgA
