  2. Money won’t buy you love. Spotify is not what I think of when I think of podcasts. Sorry.

  3. I could live my whole life without hearing from Mark Normand and I'd be fine.

  4.  @kabrink64  30 people who've died from vaccine. 600,000 of your fellow countrymen died from COVID. Get your head checked.

  5.  @whatistau  Not really. Watching what you're typing is not in any TOS I've ever seen.

  6.  @paultimson6674  "Soda" is just carbonated water. I know this because I've watched it being made. What is added after that is all that matters. In this case, HFCS is the main reason for obesity. The trend lines don't lie. Soda was very popular in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s. It wasn't until the 80s and 90s where HFCS was replaced for actual sugar that people began to gain hard-to-lose-weight.

  7. "I believe Donald Trump thinks he won in the election" lol thanks. Huge prophecy here.

  8.  @kellymartin2580  it’s actually not though. Spotify is really broken on some platforms, whereas YouTube is not. For example, Spotify on Roku (now with 3x the users of AppleTV) don’t even sync with the video correctly, or doesn’t even have video. I strongly disagree with your comment. YouTube lapped Spotify hands down.

  9. Disagree. Bill doesn’t kneel as often, but often concedes his inadequacies when relevant.

  10. So those 600,000 fellow Americans don't count? What a patriot. Hey guys, this guy cares about his country.

  11. Soda isn’t the problem. It’s high fructose corn syrup. Don’t listen to anyone telling you that it’s the same as sugar.

  12. I guess you have to convince me that she’s an idiot and a stealth, elite intelligent market manipulator without tripping over yourself. Good luck. She isn’t an idiot and a 4D chess manipulator. Pick one.

  13. Muslims won't, so you'll just be outbred. Amazing strategy. Really 4d chess.

  14. It’s boomer porn. Jan 6 was as significant and you assholes do your best to bury that one, so let’s put down the pitchforks - you’re all just as bad 😂

  17. This person is an insufferable nobody. Sure, he might be right about all kinds of things – but his ego and need to be seen as some sort of expert is too obvious. "I believe Donald Trump thinks he won in the election" lol thanks. Huge prophecy here.

  18. These end cards are getting desperate sounding.

  19. As a developer, I can't tell you how many times junior developers enter conversations like "I could build this in a day" only to find out they didn't fully understand the entirety of the project. So you're telling me you could create a custom payment system, a moderation system, a content management system used by thousands of people, set up the server and distribution infrastructure - in a day? Okay. Twitter was famously "built on a weekend", but the untold story is that the core infrastructure that they "built on a weekend" is still in use in parts of the platform, causing bottlenecks and constant frustration for the developers at Twitter. Not what I'd call a win.

  20. People forget that Posterous existed. This was the exact model. Literally nothing different.

  21.  @Mike-fx4nu Semantics matters when you're talking about food and obesity. That's literally the fucking problem.

  22. Spotify is not an option. I do not like the experience at all. I have a brand new computer and a fresh install of Spotify takes 3 minutes before I can search for a song or podcast.

  23.  @tannercellardoor  dude, you know too much about these people.

  24.  @tannercellardoor  Who likes their own comments? Web developers can see this shit you know.

  25. It would suck to be a guest post-Spotify. Basically 1/1000th the audience.

  28. Joe would have had a better time moving to Curiosity Stream - I joke, but actually CS runs on TVs, their own app, desktop, mobile, etc. Can’t say that about Spotify.

  29.  @crist3809  that isn’t really good enough since you could already do that with any podcast app. I listened to JRE using iTunes in the background all the time, and on my TV. Spotify takes 5 minutes to run on my brand new computer - why would I want to switch to that.

  30. I’m not for or against the Twitter ban - but as a technologist let me add my perspective on this freedom conversation. Firstly, what is freedom? Is it freedom to do business the way you want, or freedom of speech? In tech, we don’t get both often. Let me explain: Let’s say I own a McDonalds - and for a week now a guy has been coming in and harassing patrons. As a McDonalds franchisee, I can kick this person out and tell them to never come back. It doesn’t matter if McDonalds is 2 or 2 million employees - this never changes. I can always kick out anyone I want for whatever reason. My property, my rules. In tech, nothing like this is guaranteed. Literally every thing you build - if done well - will eventually find itself in a free speech argument. Whether it’s Spotify or Shopify, the platform you built - because of its reach - will always be subject to freedom of speech regulations by the public. Is that freedom? To build something and know that if it hits a certain threshold (success), then you basically don’t get to say what goes on on your own platform? This isn’t just Twitter. It’s everything tech. As someone who builds platforms for a living, I can tell you that this increasingly prevalent notion is keeping people from wanting to build the next Twitter. Who wants to build something that a mob will eventually decides the rules? Not me.

  34. Spotify was a mistake. I like Spotify, but this reminds me when AOL TimeWarner was a thing - also something no one wanted.

  37. JR is generally a good interviewer - the arms crossed, combative element of this isn't...helpful.

  38. I can see this comment triggered people who don't understand "subjective opinion." Dude is the most generic comedian ever. Sorry I don't like dumb simple comedy from a guy who looks like the f-boy from "You."

  44. This is the dumbest conversation ever. Why would they ever be banned? So no more lawnmowers? Boats? Airplanes? "Do you think they will ever ban yellow dildos?" is literally how dumb this sounds.

  50.  @BobbyHiII  Why don't you care about smoking, alcohol and heroin deaths? What about this, what about that. That's your argument? Look over here at this other thing? So COVID gives you better health? The Chinese-made virus gives us all better health - and you think you care about the country? How is that? By suggesting that China was first to market with a virus that gives you longer life expectancy? Actually read into what you just said. You're saying our life is actually better with COVID. This is a weird way to suck China's d*ck, dude. Good luck navigating the real world, my friend.
