With that prelude out of the way, let's begin. Inside of emacs you can call up a list of potential completions by using the keyboard shortcut M-. (that’s "hit the meta key along with period", where "meta" is the Alt key for me). This applies in a wide variety of scenarios, like when completing class names or variables. If we want to ask emacs to hand us a list of potential references, then the system we want to hook into is this completions system. (This is the only time I'll assume we know wh

Spotify peeved after 10,000 users sold data to build AI tools

For millions of Spotify users, the "Wrapped" feature—which crunches the numbers on their annual listening habits—is a highlight of every year's end, ever since it debuted in 2015. NPR once broke down exactly why our brains find the feature so "irresistible," while Cosmopolitan last year declared that sharing Wrapped screenshots of top artists and songs had by now become "the ultimate status symbol" for tens of millions of music fans.

Tushar Mehta / Android Authority I am a snob when it comes to music choices. I have spent countless hours in my teenage years arguing with strangers on the internet that Megadeth is overrated, or defending Nickelback from being smeared as the worst rock band ever. Now, while I’ve realized I have been wrong in imposing my music choices on others, I still maintain a high level of scrutiny when deciding which music tracks will remain in my Spotify playlists.

Judge William Alsup has rejected the record-breaking $1.5 billion settlement Anthropic has agreed to for a piracy lawsuit filed by writers. According to Bloomberg Law, the federal judge is concerned that the class lawyers struck a deal that will be forced "down the throat of authors."
