I don't think that the SuperCollider team has an official stance on this and I can't really speak for all developers. Legally, I think you're on the safe side as long as scsynth runs in a separate process (which is the case f

Thanks for the kind response! > I’m also definitely not wanting to circumnavigate the GPL! You are going to great lengths to make sure that SuperSonic (and thus scsynth) can be used by non-GPL code. You are explicitly advertising in the

Careful! Just because you are exchanging messages via sockets does not necessarily make it a mere aggregate! Quoting the official GPL FAQ: > By contrast, pipes, sockets and command-line arguments are communication mechanisms normally use

Hi, Sam! I have to say that's a strange statement. SuperSonic still uses scsynth as its synthesis engine. How is that a "complete replacement"? I see that you are trying to circumvent the GPL, with somewhat dubious arguments.

How exactly does the license matter if you just want to make music?

C++26 adopted senders/receivers (std::execution) as its official concurrency model, with the explicit aim of supporting structured concurrency. See https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers

IIUC value objects can have any size, it's just that 'reference flattening' requires the object to fit into a machine word. But this is only due to how Java represents object references and its atomicity guarantees. Naturally

Yes, Schlosspark is quite nice for jogging or walking. There are also two sandboxes for kids. However, you're not supposed to walk on most of the grass, so it's indeed mostly a park to look at, but not a park to be used.

> Lua uses 64-bit double floats for everything, _even array indexing_, because they have 53 bits of mantissa and they're guaranteed to represent all 32-bit integers with 100% precision. Lua 5.3 introduced a proper integer type. Howe

Citation needed. You only need LuaJIT if performance is very important, which is not the case for many scripting purposes. I personally use Lua 5.3.

Really? I found it very enjoyable.

Ah, that movie! I started watching it with my wife and we both decided to quit midway through because we found it cheesy and sentimental. The music, in particular, was terrible, despite being composed by Joe Hisaishi.

Do you find it so unbelievable that Andrew is genuinely unhappy with the direction that HN has been taken? You can't deny that there is a real problem with AI generated submissions and comments.

I don't know anyone who had to "recover" from being raised by "progressive" parents. Is this actually a thing? What would there be to recover from exactly?

This is just a simple example, therefore nitpicking on the semantics of the Widget methods is a bit silly. > 1. Instead of explicitly applying the rule-of-0 with `= default` for the copy&move ctor&assignment and the destructor -

They actually switched from GLFW. In that case you would naturally pick SDL3 and not SDL2.

It might be standard terminology but to outsiders like me it sounds like an over-the-top parody of corporate speak.

That quote is really funny because it reads like a parody. Next time just use quotation marks and add a link to the source.

I thought the same. Business lingo has really jumped the shark. "story" is already stupid enough, but "epic"? Seriously? :-D

In my understanding, senders/receivers is a more generalized concurrency model, but it has been designed to play well with coroutines.
