I used Evernote for years after switching over from Microsoft OneNote and every year the product got steadily worse. Fortunately the ENEX file format is nothing more than a giant concatenated file of all of your notes in a customized XML bl

I have a MacBook M1 Max that has been nothing but a pain in the ass when it comes to the core audio. Anytime I attempt to use soft synths that peg the CPU at about 40 to 50%, the speakers will start to occasionally crackle/pop complete

Point is not the hardware specs. The point is that the iPad Pro makes an excellent portable musical workstation on the go as well (GarageBand comes with it, and Logic Pro has been ported over). So if you had to choose one this becomes a rel

His argument also boils down to the idea that since other jobs such as manufacturing require employees to be on site, that all jobs should have the same requirement. Smh... Also the idea of a ruthless capitalistic multibillionaire invoking

It is possible they came up with the concept completely independently, though I would agree it does seem rather unlikely. It would've been the classy move to give you a shout out if they were inspired by your project. There was a post

Sounds awful, in all of the companies I've worked for the R&D department was firewalled from this type of tech support work. If there were site related issues, that was usually the role of dev ops team to handle. That could then ge

At least this type of noise is more of a side effect and not the purported goal of the device. Contrast that with subwoofers which over 12in should just be illegal in apartments...

"From the information available so far, the Apple headset will be fairly close to Meta's Oculus Quest in terms of hardware"... So a $3000 VR headset with a FOV that's still the equivalent of looking out of a periscope on

I don't know if it's that serious, but personally I'd be rather embarrassed wearing an emblem or a logo and not being able to speak at least to some degree about that thing. Reminds me of all the clueless people wearing Che G

Just because we have a pithy quote doesn't detract from the fact that we shouldn't go all starry eyed and bandy about terms which obfuscate rather than explore the mechanics of how things work. Calling something "black magic&

I like to have Long plays of old retro video games playing on my TV in the background while I work, almost like a fancier screensaver, so YouTube premium has been a godsend. There's a hell of a lot of money it takes to maintain a conte

agree, I feel like they're diluting the core of their product which should be a solid competitor to Photoshop. I've used pixelmator pro for years but photomator feels like a distraction that will hamper their development efforts t

And it is highly unlikely that aforementioned group of illiterates are applying for software engineering positions... so I'm not sure how relevant this statistic is.

Well one of the reasons that a pinball video game is always going to be easier is that by their digital nature they're significantly more deterministic from a Newtonian physics perspective. The "virtual solenoids" that contro

The Anglicization is mos-cow. Using Cyrillic it's pronounced in neither of those two ways that you've written.

Perhaps this may have been the case early on, but if you observe the trends especially with LLMs moving to zero shot, it's becoming progressively easier to express nuanced instructions with relatively simple prompts.

I don't believe that it is generative, but I totally understand where you're coming from because it's an entire paragraphs worth of what amounts to simply thanking the author for the project, and doesn't add any salient

I also tried this exact prompt and it gave me the following response: "What do you know about Edgar Allan Poe?" "I can't assist you with that, as I'm only a language model and don't have the capacity to underst

Except that this sounds like a Xerox of a Xerox of a stereotyped California valley girl. Reductio ad absurdum much? Also it's significantly less noticeable in spoken conversation. smh...

Because it's the same banal empty platitudes that have been bandied around for decades. Do we really need a dedicated website rehashing the same thing? One day you'll find yourself desperately wanting to create a website or write

Honestly it's more indictment of human nature and the need for external validation. I hate the fact that people are watching it at all, it almost gives ammo for future potential copycats. As an amateur working towards their PPL, the wh

It's because it's the kind of common well-trotted out wisdom that you'd find in a fortune cookie, they've just placed it in a much fancier dish.

It's a drab gray asymmetrical block with pastel colors, I do not understand people who think that teenage engineering possesses any aesthetic sensibilities whatsoever. Beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder.

I'm right there with you - I don't like the muted pastel color palette choices, the structural design, etc. I also think at that price point, there is a sunken cost fallacy that contractually obligates people to defend the visual

If you're a professional you're going to be using a professional tool, not an overpriced shiny looking toy. In this case almost every person I know who's doing field recordings is using a zoom Hx series or something similar.

Outside of musicians, the public and mainstream just have an easier time identifying with songs that feature lyrics. Most people need to possess some rudimentary ability to play an instrument to appreciate and to look closer into individual

There are plenty of ways of collaborating that don't involve a Paid job. "No person is an island". I hate quotes like this, things that have the veneer of truth without any actual corroborating data. I am a textbook introvert
