Pandemic payroll

Arizona has upgraded their IT for unemployment benefits. It has been identified that it might have been better to " do what some other countries have done and pay employers to keep people on the payroll during the pandemic."

While benefit seekers need to verify every week of their status which might be to reduce the pool or make it real on the ground, this might bog down the system more with more calls. 

The longer it takes to resolve a case, the work needed to maintain it is ballooned.

Reverse index

Looking at this overloaded  page on typesense , I wanted to understand some of the terms. A  good example  of reverse index is when you have to search for 234, 235, 236. Here it makes sense to find the differeing last number sooner than the initial long, same numbers.  The time to  dynamically reconstruct inverted index  is important.

Music and NFT

Like  Audius  could   Spotify and othe rmusic companies let both their company and a network be controlled by token holders. Of the 11B music industry, how much can be NFT driven? Solana block chain Which existing blockchain/NFT platforms can add music to their offerings? If they cant add, what stops them from it? Is it fragmented customer base when it comes to music choice? Are cetain types of music lovers more congregative? Is enjoying music seen as a solitary hobby or as a group one? For example, our fitness instructor realises that different kind of people have different taste when it comes to workout music and hence asks if we want hers on or not.
