Cool, like a DIY AAA TripTik (anyone else used to pick those up for trips?)

Yeah- as a long time modular synth user I practically drool over stuff like this. But for the money I can just get more synth modules.

Think of it in a streaming/functional way. Programming would be about signal flow, components that transform, and you get a continuous output.

All good. Generics are too new in Go for it to land.

It’s not obsolete. It’s just deprecated.

Those were the first two dots I was trying to connect as well.

Please create a PR for my library goto-drink.js which uses labels for each libation so you can continue or break your drink.

This is one where I prefer not to use the minified version.

Yes, I am down with this. What a great day on Hacker News. A long time ago, back when I had a neo-no-wave group and worked as a recording engineer, we hooked up with a number of NYC folks- Friendly Bears, Toby Driver/Kayo Dot, Colin Ma

One of the members is from Pyrrhon, which I've been a fan of for a long time. Legit. This is on my wishlist now.

I do something similar to this too- sometimes making 2-4 scenes and pasting some basic form in the arrangement. From there, I see it the way a sculptor might see a slab of rock, and start “carving out” the song.

Maybe amateurs… Professionals tend to keep a stable system running for as long as possible. The first studio I worked in had a B room that was running OS 9 at a point where OS X had been out for 7 years. My current setup at home is a 2010 M

I am going hiking in New Mexico next week. I am taking the train there. After looking at the excellent public transportation in the Santa Fe area, I decided to make the whole vacation car-free. I’m from Kansas City, and public transportatio

That setup is using an Apogee Duet Firewire. I had an original digidesign mbox (USB 1!) hooked up to the Mini before that. The original Duet stopped getting driver updates a few years back. For a while, apogee had a trade-in deal if you sen

Interesting- I'd much rather pay the perpetual fee. At home, I run a 13 year old Mac Mini in my studio. Everything DAW related on it still works, and it's all compatible with each other. This is quite common in many studios I&#x27

When I bought my house, about 7 years ago, it came with a Nest thermostat. I have never hooked it up to the internet. It works quite well that way.

Huh, that’s interesting. My fellow scholars and myself found it rather challenging. Basically all students who were not piano players took 4 semesters (keyboard I II III IV), where IV prepared you for the exam. All of us could play in a lot

I could just be confused, but I thought I remembered the folks doing performance majors alongside us in Keyboard class to get prepare for the piano proficiency exam. Obviously not the Pianists- but I thought every music major had to pass ke

I don’t understand how it’s inevitable that projects using this package will become garbage when the codebase grows. It looks like reasonable patterns could be built around it. Am I missing something?

I used to always stand up to wipe. At one point in my adult life, there was a conversation and I realized everyone else does not do this. Then I tried wiping while sitting down. So much easier.

I still have all my work auth stuff on my phone. If I really wanted to take it farther, I could put in a request for a company-owned smart phone that I could keep by my desk for just that purpose.

The most recent thing I've done is make my phone a whole lot less distracting. I used this guide: https://whatifididnt.com/blog/iphone-dumb-phone/ I kept one of my note taking tools, voice memos, and bank app

It's the first one. It's not simple, it's not white collar, and it doesn't pay crazy money. I wonder where you get that impression from. For examples, refer to most artists, musicians, poets, writers...

Ah yes. That is the one benefit of the SHOW UP act- it does help the ego of managers.

The site is pretty. However, I do not get the same message from this site as I do from the book it’s based on. When you get farther into the site and it’s telling you what you should be doing… no thanks. That comes off as prescriptive and c

This might be wise advice. I have spent a lot on gear, and I buy bags that are typically around $30/lb, although there are some great blends that can be picked up for around $15/lb. It has ruined the cheap (Robusta) coffee for me.

The kids and I like to kick the hedge apples around at the park. I also once had a some hardwood jewelry made from osage orange that looked quite nice.
