Doesn’t this strike anyone as overly cynical and just… incurious? Yes, hype and trends are obnoxious, there are individuals and organizations that reflexively seek sexy tech and apply it wrong, but isn’t this also part of how we find things

I typed up a comment saying how much I’d love to drop this in alongside my Prisma code so I can keep using the ORM for simple things and have the option to drop into SQL as needed. It ended asking if anyone knew whether such a thing was pos

Speaking as a drummer and sometimes producer, the only people likely to have strong opinions about this are drummers. All of my drummer friends agree: audience mixes make some albums unlistenable on headphones. Nobody else will notice eithe

Add drum mixes panned from the audience perspective instead of drummer perspective and you’ve got my vote.

I had the same thought just now. Reminds me of the good old days of forums, which was what attracted me to Reddit originally. Looks like they have equivalents for at least two of my frequently visited subreddits, so that’s an easy sell for

Alright, this is more than you’re asking for but here’s the full story as I remember it. It was a long time ago so some of it is fuzzy. I don’t think I ever shared this story publicly before. October 2011. I went to the rewards program site

I discovered a SQL injection vulnerability in the credit card rewards site of a major US bank in 2011. A VP finally called me a day later and asked what I wanted — they thought I was a hacker trying to extort them, he told me they had been

Serious question, possibly naive: how many of Reddit’s UX decisions come back to pressure from investors to make good on the $1.3B they’ve raised? Is every web product with users and influence obligated to raise as much as possible and grow

Right from https://github.com/features/preview/copilot-x : “Context aware conversations with your copilot. If you're stuck solving a problem, ask GitHub Copilot to explain a piece of code. Bump into an error?

This is completely true but completely in conflict with how many very large companies advertise it. I’m a paid GitHub Copilot user and recently started using their chat tool. It lies constantly and convincingly, so often that I’m starting t

$100/month strikes me as a “we don’t want you” price. I’m sure there’s someone out there who can justify it but it will immediately turn away a hell of a lot of people. Maybe this was the point? Reduce API users to only the most motiva

Playing to a click is standard for metal bands who play at high speeds. A band that sounds lifeless or bland on their albums is going to sound that way with or without it. It is standard for nearly every serious extreme metal band, with man

That's really cool! And it's a small world. I've known Colin and the Krallice guys for years! Everyone in Glorious Depravity is a software developer and in other bands, there's a good chance that you crossed paths with s

This particular song won't be recorded until later this year but the last album is easy to find online. Glorious Depravity - "Ageless Violence". It's influenced by 90s American death metal in general, I'm not sure y

We talked about it and decided it wasn't worth it at the time. This is early in the pre-production phase so it's totally possible that we'll invest more time after we've rehearsed to it for a few weeks.

I love things like this. It’s especially funny knowing about Lars reputation as a drummer. Things like this are found throughout the early Metallica tab/notation books. I have a good friend who recently did a set of And Justice for All

There’s certainly a lot of that but it’s still a version of music being part of our lives, even if the people trying to participate in musical “me too” experiences aren’t creating what we’d all consider art. These things have always existed

I can only respond anecdotally but from where I’m sitting, the DIY music world has never been larger or more diverse and younger people are a huge part of that. Friendly digital recording, platforms line SoundCloud, YouTube, and Bandcamp, p

Is this a good thing, bad thing, indifferent? I think a big part of many people’s contempt for their jobs comes from the sense that it’s an endless, thankless stream of tickets and demands. Seeing people in person, remembering they’re human

Do you know how many people they did have working on this, or what people specifically were lacking to catch these? Do you have insight into what major problems they caught before release that they public never saw?

Thank you! This was one of the two major blockers for me, the other being lack of presigned upload URLs and I see that landed with this release!
