That's great on paper but how do I actually use it? If I want to play back a wavetable you have el.table() but it's missing the oversampling and decimation tools required for antialiasing. The el.lowpass() is a biquad which is not

Low frequencies need to be much louder than mid frequencies to be heard at the same volume. Tiny speaker cones do not have enough power to make low frequencies audible, at least without extra technology. Apple uses passive radiators and spe

It's due to how the puzzles are generated. Positions that have a jump in centipawn evaluation are used as puzzles. If you're under 1500 then stick to the basics. Analyze all your games. The only way to improve is to practice and s

Well said. This is true for everything. There is a sweet spot between too easy and too hard. I would recommend taking a step back. Ask yourself why you want to code. Computers are powerful machines so find something interesting to do with t

That's strange. A quick search shows lots of people complaining that GoDaddy is front running. The company swears they do not and they are against the practice. Maybe their servers are compromised?

The universe has a strange way of putting the pieces together eventually. It will make sense looking back on it. Continue to follow your intuition. I believe it is your higher purpose.

If it were provably untrue then you would have proved your point. My opinion is not invalidated by your opinion.

I honestly could not care less. Steve Jobs was the same. I think you are criticizing the very things that made them great.

Lytton burned to the ground the next day. Let's see how long the American egocentric approach lasts as more cities burn down with each passing summer. Keep topping up your SUV, it's not your problem.

I've been using a 13" MacBook Pro for years. No issues to report. I'm not sure what type of programming you people are doing. Multiple monitors is nice but it really does not improve my productivity.

Meditate and do it properly, for at least 15 minutes a day. Focus on your breath. You will hear sounds, feel sensations in your body, and have thoughts come and go. Observe these things but bring your focus back to your breath. I think you

Midwit Ayn Rand makes a good point. The problem is you can rationalize anything using some mental gymnastics. Ethics are more important than reason. The goal should be to reduce harm not reach some optimal socioeconomic solution. Health car

You can evaluate long-term value by doing your due diligence by researching the company's strategy and financials. You can tell if a stock is undervalued by calculating its price to earnings ratio. Day trading is gambling. Valuation an

False dichotomy, it usually does. One day you will die. You won't be thinking about bills.

Linus Torvalds also has many criticisms of the Linux desktop.[1] None of the commercial applications I have bought will run on Linux without wasting time tinkering. For programming, I'm forced to use Xcode because it's required on

You should do what makes you feel fulfilled in life. If that thing is status, I question your motivation. People like that are conceited.

These people exclude themselves by not participating in a healthy and well structured society. If your main problem in life is you can't conform to social norms, perhaps you shouldn't be telling others to conform.

Talk to the people who understand it well. Unless it is extremely well documented that is the only sane method. If you can get a class diagram it will help.

It's strange how we have a system based on entrepreneurship and innovation and we make doing those things next to impossible. Between the stress, the risk, and the workload it's a miracle anybody wants to start a new business. Jus

Hook are worse than lifecycle methods, they are difficult to understand, and they are not elegant. When you run into trouble, it is your mental model to blame. You are told to learn to think in hooks, which is to say, to do things in an uni

Right? I always hear this type of whining but every time I use Twitter I find cool projects and interesting discussion. The more mainstream threads are mostly noise and I don't pay a lot of mind to them. Many of the political shitposts

So brain fog is actually a triggering of early-onset Alzheimer's? From what I read it sounds like they can't tell. Can someone translate this to English?

This type of stuff will eventually lead us to a vegan world. It's hard to see it now but future generations will find it harder to slaughter millions of animals when perfect meat substitutes are available. It will be similar to the slo

I'm bearish on AI. The human brain does far more than just learn things. AI still has no ability to reason or think creatively. So we're not even in the ballpark. The space has been worked on for 50 years. I'm not sure why pe

Talk about entitled. Freemium exists because of piracy. Why blame the video game industry for something caused by criminals. Developers need to eat too.

70% of app store revenue comes from games. Annual mobile game revenue is $93 billion. Do you have an example of what you're talking about?

JUCE is the best option. Shopify came out with React Native Skia, which allows you to draw whatever you need. You can also use Skia directly but it's only a drawing library. I wanted to use something like IMGUI but it's hard to th
