How long until executive jobs are offshored as well? What stops that from happening 10 years after many of the skilled labor jobs are offshored The only barrier I see is the capital to create competing startups, but places like China may b

Classic. Thanks for the laugh, even if it’s HHOS.

Compression over HTTPS can be problematic, as it makes the key easier to crack. I would like to trade out AngularJS for Vue someday, though.

I would tend to agree. Not a fan of database abuse / contempt. Turn on the SQL trace in Hibernate and weep. So much code wanking to be “performant”, which just waits for horrible database usage to grind along.

90 KB is probably bad for a marketing page, but it’s nothing for a B2B or internal use app, particularly when the second use is just the “you already have it” HTTP header response. Good or bad depending on context.

Wishful thinking? PS - this “child” started working as a developer, at least part time, back in 1985 C++ eventually passed into a bad memory, and so will MSIE.

Alas, about 50% of mine. Many government and healthcare organizations STILL using Internet Exploder, presumably until its 2025 end of life:-(

This seems like a “cultural” issue you want to investigate before you start working somewhere. The problem is, you need to drill down to technical staff, in private, to have any hope of getting an honest answer, as all managers seem to fer

Well, either the same parm on all 4 operators for some parms, or envelope rate xor level settings for a single operator, but not arbitrary parms. But it is indeed 4 sliders, and not just 2 or 1. Interestingly Yamaha documents the CC codes

Some are good. I’m not an Apple hater. I have an older (good model) MacBook Pro, an iPad mini 2, an iPhone SE, and an iPad. (All with connectors such as headphone jacks) It’s some of the newer models that strip off functionality for aest

Some of their products are very good. Some, not so much. That’s the weird thing. I guess AirPods work for some, but I wouldn’t touch them.

So, I just imagined one side of my earbuds falling out of my ear and dangling from the wire while I’m walking around the neighborhood at home sometimes? (Which I do frequently- walking or jogging around outside) Downvoters gonna downvote,

Let me know when (type inference of) partial function application and object literals are easy in Typescript and I’ll consider it.

I hear you. I look forward to seeing the (support) death of IE11 in 2025 (!!!), which is likely all too close to my own retirement. Also about the “subset” thing: the last 10 years or so I have been moving away from OOP, and more towards F

AirPods sound like a PITA to me. Oops,time to charge them again- no wait, I just dropped one and it bounced into the gutter/ drain. I should I charge the one I can still find, or throw it away, too? No thanks. Regular corded earbuds

Oh. I ignored the desktop OS. Yeah. You will probably have more fun playing if you start out on the iPad first. Ideas for iOS stuff : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZFPiLpzd4cKOsBS9CIu3xg

Get a camera kit to connect the controller to the iPad. Depending on the controller, you may may need a powered usb hub - M-Audio keystation is low power, but Akai Mini needs more than the iPad will put out, for example. I like the BeatMak

Cool. But why not just have different remote names other than the default of “origin”? Somebody else on the thread mentioned that it might be a bit complicated to clean things up after an outage on such a “multiplexed” remote.

I miss the IBM XT & AT keyboards from when I started working programming in the 80s. That was a keyboard that you could take into battle. Even the Selectric typewriters in high school had lighter keys than those things, but those were t

Check out Lorentz if you have an iOS device. It’s a virtual analog synth, similar to something like the Roland Juno 106.

The Seaboard block is a little cheaper, but it’s mini key size. Nice to have in a backpack, though. I just wish Roli made an iOS config utility.

Sorry about the breaking changes, but glad “this” will be going away. Thinking about transitioning (from AngularJS) to Vue, but prefer FP to OOP, and I’m glad that these new value wrapper things can be passed or used as partially applied ar
