I looked in to this a little when Windmill was last discussed here, and the gap you may bump into (as a replacement for Rundeck) is that AFAICT Windmill has no support for executing scripts remotely over (e.g.) SSH and passing the GUI value

Putting a file into "that dir" also requires elevated permissions. (e.g. C:\Program Files\VSTPlugins )

My guess would be the common sense angle, within the context that when someone commissions you to make a pilot, you get it done , because in part, you're trying to demonstrate that you're ready to do the thing for real.

Likewise, 20 years here. I vaguely recall some downtime in the past, so for me this might be the second time I've noticed it.

Thanks for the reply. Winmill is definitely something that I'll need to take a closer look at, when time permits. I do suspect though that it's going to be a bit too heavyweight to be a direct replacement for Rundeck.

This looks very impressive. Thinking about it as an alternative to scripted workflows with Rundeck, it seems like the main gap here is getting scripts to run on a specific machine without needing to have set that machine up to run worker pr

It turns out you can find these by going to their github page, and manually trawling through the various subfolders of /MenuOptions/. Not exactly putting key information front and centre.

The absurdity is striking when you see all this process around DNS in a large org, and then you remember that DNS was invented as a way of permitting delegation of authority, away from the centre.

My vague recollection is that, after DabbleDB, they were working on a new product - some sort of analytics dashboard (?) - they did an early demo of it, and I gather someone at Twitter saw this and thought "oh wow, we need those guys w

There probably are some people using it in the studio, but among the notable features of the 645Z (and the 645D before it) are that it's weather sealed, and shoots in landscape format. So I'd say it's aimed more at field use

Ah, as if raked into the sand. Brilliant.

Ah, it does indeed. The dangers of skimming. Thanks for the correction.

I remember learning a great deal from the SoundOnSound article, and am now only very slightly shuddering at the fact that it was almost twenty years ago. One interesting point that neither article seem to cover (at least based on me rapidly

An interesting complicating factor here is that much of the UK's installed base of CCTG stations were built during the 90s with the intention of replacing many of the smaller coal-fired stations, which would typically be doing 2-shift

Seconded. I hadn't heard that he'd gone.

Similarly, the past situations where I've wished I had lens tilt available (to give the appearance of greater depth of field), were I taking those shots today I'd probably be looking at using focus stacking instead.

The only option that Postgres's materialized views give you is to "refresh" the view, meaning: re-run the query used to define the view, fetching an entirely new dataset, and use that to replace all the existing data in the v

Never tried this with RDS, but it's entirely possible to use postgres_fdw to interact with a foreign table on another postgres server, where you might have more choice about what extensions you run. I'm doing this right now beca

AFAICT, the diagram is just there is illustrate the differences between the types of vdev. It doesn't represent a sensible configuration, nor is it what the rest of the article is talking about actually doing.

In audio production, the relevance of 32 bit audio is that it's using the same 32 bit float representation of the audio that most of the signal processing stages are also using. In contrast, when people talk about 16 or 24 bit audio,

IT guy for ERP customer here. This sounds about right to me. In particular, it tends to partiton the organization into (A) the people whose job it is to plug away at the ERP system (orders, invoices, tickets, etc), and (B) the people who ac

> Do none of the decision makers talk with the people that work for them? In many cases, no. In part because the people that do the operational work aren't the same people who work for the decision maker.

There's a degree of UI design overlap between the CS-80 and Yamaha's electronic organs of the same period, and it's interesting to think about how this pays off for the CS-80. One of the defining characteristics of an organ i

The only ones I know of are the Roland A-80 (somewhat rare) and Kurzweil MIDIBoard (very rare), both circa 1988. The Gem S2 and S3 (as mentioned by TheOtherHobbes) from around 1992 - these do indeed have poly aftertouch, but neither of them

It's not clear to me that any of the challenges the article addresses could be improved by the use of a clock synchronization protocol, such as PTP - it is not within the gift of application software to modify the audio sample rate clo

On the other hand, changing the length of a varchar column in Postgres is actually changing the type of the table, and if you have any other objects in the database that are dependent upon that type (e.g. views), you'll have to drop an

What ended up working during the late 80s and through the 90s were ASICs that could be reused in areas other than just "pure" synthesizers - digital pianos, home organs, PC soundcards (IIRC both Emu and Ensoniq ended up being boug
