   This is awesome! Great work. How does this work on older browsers? It would have a leg up on current web assembly if it's backwards compatible.

   Excuse me if I come across as naive, I'm kind of a noob on these architectural topics, but how is this different/better than what the JVM is/accomplishes? When WASM first popped up I thought about the similarities with Java W

    Let me know how that goes! I know as a songwriter it'd be a great tool to have on hand.

    I feel like the Markov chain could also apply go higher level song formula, with probability weights for choruses, verses, bridges, breakdowns, solos, etc. I prefer to just write a bunch of riffs and see where they grow organically, but it

    I found this easier to read by adding `padding: 13%` to the div with class `afe4286c`.

    Depends on where you're at, I've heard at some big companies you're going to work 70 - 80 hours and be on call.

    I've been messing around with the Web Audio API lately and the message Firefox leaves is that it will still work as long as the user initiates the sounds loading, not the page. So if the user opens your chat or maybe interacts with you

    Kids are too clever. Funniest article I've read in a while, some of those tweets are too much. Also – the girl who is nostalgic of that time long ago of when she chatted on Google Docs.

    This is awesome! I'm still an analytics noob with a tiny bit of GA experience. I have my own site I'm launching but it's totally DIY, for the DIY punk/hardcore scene. Some of the first party suggestions in this thread ha

    I would argue with the internet we have access to an expansive view to broaden our horizons, and the paid training can go toward developing skills for income. With Youtube, Wikipedia, and Google Scholar I think I've learned more than I

    I look forward to the day where "scripted" characters can grow and learn. Characters with certain tendencies and traits set by writers can grow and learn in different ways since they are weighted differently and have different goa

    A point to the discussion of whether JSX is preferable or not to a programmer, most React projects with JSX I've worked on has had the awesome bonus of a designer who knows markup/css to be able to add layouts to our web and React

    I quit soda this year, and it's been very difficult. Sometimes I just want to wash down a great meal with a tall, ice cold Coke. Hoping after being away from it long term I start to not want it anymore.

    Your story speaks to my soul. I've never been too attracted to the VC-funded startup life (although I wouldn't pass it up if it was the correct move to grow my business), but reading about your commitment to your users through thi
