Reminds me a lot of the Karma engine by uber hacker Stephen Kay which has been ported to Korg and Yamaha workstations.

I would add another keyboard category, the workstation synthesizer (Fantom, Kronos/Nautilus, Montage...) which also let you perform solo and allow you to create your own productions (the Kronos will even burn a CD!) Supposed to be the

This is a great question, but I'd answer that paying _some_ attention is better than paying _no_ attention at all. Some people study and train for years and reportedly they achieve full happiness, but certainly that is not my case and

Yes. I will be back to where I was before I was born: not being. Edit: You captured the idea, I am able to determine what will be my next steps in life, but once my life has ended it will be written in stone. So what's time, what is

I believe the article serves as a nice and quick introduction to CBT. That shit works, but I would not say it's a matter of mind over matter, it's more like realising that your behaviour depends on how you feel and your thoughts

But were you really insulted? Cognitive biases like the ones that are described in the article are the proverbial colors of the glasses with which you look at all what happens around you. If they are too negative you will react with fear

He was five years my senior. I never expected to be immortal but at my age one starts becoming aware that you have more weeks behind your back than in front of you. I like to think that living is just untangling a web that somehow fate ha

Or put another way: you can execute, with the highest levels of excellence, a bad idea and fail the same.

You cannot escape strategy. Not having a strategy is a strategy.

One would say the demographics definitely overlap ;)

> So what do procurement teams hate? Things purchased from a single supplier, with no competition/accepted substitute, and no/little ability to negotiate the price or payment terms. That is also my experience with procurement.

Ah, that's for sure. I just wanted to point out that we are not talking about Vercel or Netlify here ;)

Good recommendations in the thread. I would ask myself: what would I expect to be building with Go or Rust? Of course, you can build anything with Go or Rust --or any turing-complete programming language for that matter. But *I believe* R

One of the procurement team members from a client said: "Adobe is the most unpleasant vendor we work with". I was surprised and then they added: "We prefer working with Oracle". Somehow they have managed to out-Oracle

The amount of traffic you can serve on a bunch of Linode boxes is pretty high. I know this sounds like a boomer yelling at the clouds --see what I did here? Kubernetes is the right solution to a difficult problem you may or may not have in

Being an Emacs diehard myself, I very much enjoy when that other text editor sees a new major release. Go Vim!

True that, but it's not their fault, it's just their turf. They need to solve business needs for core processes in a sufficiently generic way to be applicable to any big enterprise. The only way to achieve this is through heavy

Things have changed quite a bit in PHP land, mind you.

I enjoyed the no-code vs code intersection framework. I would like to add that one needs to take into account that the no-code/low-code curve is _dynamic_: tools are always pushing to the right so the intersection between curves is no

This delivers quite a lot of value in terms of developer time... pricing seems incredibily low!

A very interesting exercise, but I believe the old symbols are not that hard to getting acquanted with. My mom explained them to me... what, three decades ago? Of course I don't remember most of them, but I usually buy the same types

Evernote, for all the flak it is getting, is still a remarkable product and I feel like the pricing is fair for what it gives. It ingests everything from everywhere, it indexes and scans everything for a flat fee. They are currently still

Beware: there is not an easy migration path out of Apple Notes. Also sync is not that great for massive datasets: I tried to sync my 22k-ish Evernote notes to Apple Notes and it took days and I never got the same number of notes on all th

I think it could compete against web widgets based apps, but I'd say Flutter better targets the mobile stuff with their canvas based rendering.

I remember seeing a picture of a rat in a tube lab breathing this type of liquid circa 1981. Mind was also blown.

Speed of light is negligible here. Latencies from your computer to its connected display are measured in ms, the same order of magnitude to move bits across the ocean. It's "only" a matter of moving more bits at the same t

It's not a matter of personal preference if your work for someone else. This stuff is bound to happen in the years to come. Local development of course will still be possible but will become the minority in the global workforce.

I used to say that investing some time in becoming proficient with Emacs (the One True Editor!) or vim will deliver returns over a lifetime-spanning career. But Visual Studio Code has already joined them and it is a pretty sensible editor
