Glad to hear it. I think maybe it's generational too. Watching the promotional video for Logic Pro on iOS and nobody featured on it is over 40, maybe even over 30.

I kind of knew the answer when I posted the question. It's also hard to properly price something like an audio plugin, right? Niche customer base, poor customer base (musicians)… the people making money, audio engineers and such, want

Now one of the hardware companies needs to make a 2+/in/out digital audio interface _and_ usb c hub. Who needs this? The pro amateurs like me. I have a MiniFuse2 attached to a dongle with a synth and sometimes drum machine in ther

Do you have any insight on why bigger companies like Arturia don’t bring more of their VSTs and plugins to iOS? I’m a hobbyist music maker and I vastly prefer AUM on my iPad to working in GarageBand (logic is far beyond my needs). I just wa

If it was that bad it wouldn’t be in 87% of households. I don’t think any of the services offer award winning UX, but the difficulties stated in the article are overblown. Nor is it “ruining TV” … the proof is that they keep making TV (well

Vanity. A chance to change the conversation. Just a way to feel better. Mama Liz has her reasons (and money to hire a publicist).

It’s all so exhausting, isn’t it? The PR machine, endlessly contorting reality. She can be a nice, caring person and still do lots of crimes and ruin the lives of others. This isn’t newsworthy; it’s a vanity project for both the author and

We are very good learners. That’s how we got this far. Not all new interface is good and worth learning. Sometimes it feels best to stick with what works.

A contextualized chatbot is still a chatbot. I think they’re going to stick around for a while… we’ve effectively been trying this out on the web since the AskJeevs days, and that dream is mostly realized now.

I love what you’ve done! We have less property but made and planted lots of beds with a flower/native/perennial slant. We still have lawn in the areas that are sometimes for play. We also have less clear “paths,” but they’re becom

I wonder how much of the “Americans want big cars” is just “car manufacturers _sell_ big cars and not much else” … then there’s the whole SUV loophole that gets them around emissions regs. The Ford Maverick is great and around 20k but at th

Bc despite Twitter devolving into a completely unusable product, it’s still massively influential. If we let this slide — which we keep doing with just about every change since last summer — the slippery slope turns into a waterslide.

This is really excellent news. Annual plant cultivation at the scale we need is pretty unsustainable long term. Yes we’ve been doing it for thousands of years but only 100 or so relying on oil for our enormous yields.
