Can't the website be literally static HTML for 99% of it? I don't really see any user defined input that would change the output. It's really fast, and seems fine, but is it just static pages? If not, why not. That's the

I regularly take my copy of one of the volumes of Knuth's TAOCP off the shelf. The stuff in those books will never get old, and I often find myself searching for some algorithm or concept that I know I've skimmed over in the past,

This is awesome. Congratulations! As others on this thread have commented, you haven't specified a license. Don't jump on the first thing you think of. Consider the various OSS licenses and decide which one suits you best.

Google play store is only full of trash if you go hunting for trash. I'd like to see the actual stats of people affected by play store malware vs malware available on the play store. I'm not saying it's not a problem, but I a

You're correct. You've just paid it on every app store purchase, and every in app purchase. That's because Apple, despite trying, have failed to completely lock in the payment infrastructure. They really want to though. Maybe

I've been playing piano for over 40 years and other instruments almost as long. I'm a massive fan of classical music. If you think metal bands don't understand rhythm you obviously haven't listened to much. I'm not

I couldn't watch Silicon Valley when I was working in tech. It constantly triggered rage as it was way too close to my actual experience. After I left tech, I found it to be amazing.

Many US citizens didn't get that Starship Troopers was a black comedy. There are serious video reviews taking it seriously as an action movie where the characters are true US heroes. I have a feeling these people are the same as the on

The specific values of all of the settings on a synthesizer (including the inputs and outputs of any cables in a modular synth) have been referred to as a "patch" for a very long time. That's why the cables are known as &qu

Many classical musicians have only a cursory understanding of mathematics. Many modern musicians are pushing the boundaries. There's a reason there's a genre named "math rock". Also, Jazz probably pushed the maths of mus

There aren't 8 subdivisions in an octave in western music either. Well, there are in any given scale, but there are also many scales. "Octave" is a misleading term. Given that it's just a doubling of frequency, the term

The word "patch" has a naming conflict between the disciplines of synthesizers and software.

Personally, I'd love to see / read / hear more about the way RME do what they do. I know they basically update the fpga on the devices in lock step with the drivers, which allows them to do all sorts of magic (low CPU usage,

I dual boot LTSC and Fedora. I find myself using fedora more and more, but I need Windows for a couple of apps that don't play nicely with Wine/Proton (Ableton Live 12 mainly).

Rob Pike is responsible for many cool things, but Unix isn't one of them. Go is a wonderful hybrid (with its own faults) of the schools of Thompson and Wirth, with a huge amount of Pike. If you'd said Plan 9 and UTF-8 I'd agr

Hang on, they mostly agree with each other. I've spoken to Rob Pike a few times and I never heard him call out Perlis as being wrong. On this particular point, Perlis and Pike are both extending an existing idea put forward by Fred Bro

Naive doesn't mean bad. 99% of software can be written with understood, well documented data structures. One of the problems with ai is that it allows people to create software without understanding the trade offs of certain data struc

The NT kernel is actually pretty amazing. You can even run a pretty solid Windows version if you want to sail the high seas. LTSC and masgrave will get you most of the way there.
