Yup! Took up learning before I got married, continued for 5 years after :)

I bought myself my first scope this summer and have been watching both Saturn, juipter and now mars on occasion as they've precessed across the evening sky. Same feelings for me, it's magical to observe first hand with analogue op

I mostly agree with all the above, but as a guitarist/singer* there is distinctly something about transposing songs - it is clearly obvious that most songs work best in their original keys and quite a number of times transposition comp

And, with respect, you missed one of my points, regarding the code . Sure websites are normal, but if you present me with the source and you wrote it (i.e. it's not just a wordpress site) and it's something worth looking at the

My point was regarding the following: - usually the first person to screen or introduce you won't be a developer or perhaps not even technical, so you've put yourself out of the running early on. I can query it, but many who might

I would recommend you don't do that. Nobody who is reviewing candidates has time to write a client to get your raw information out of a database. If you build the client, and a web page/app and also document how you did it and a

I've also been thinking along these lines; last month I built myself this: https://doug.lon.dev/software/hardware/2020/07/26/guitarix-p... Although I also plan to run different music apps on i

Ive heard that it is essentially a joke or insult. You are saying "you can carry on talking but I'm not listening".

Thanks for the info, but I already have all of this part working. The problem is that v4l2loopback only provides a virtual _webcam_ (video source), not a virtual _screen_ - the two are different and are handled differently both by browsers

Using video loopback opens up some great creative possibilities for fun with video conferencing. There's one thing I'd love to achieve though, which seems not possible on Linux desktop (specifically kubuntu).... I want to be able

With midi data being 7-bit aren't you losing out on an awful lot of the available colour space? Or is it near enough to not really matter in this case?

by wdfx 7y ago
This. Kubuntu has been my daily driver at work and home for a good number of years now. Love it.

by wdfx 7y ago
Sure that's all fair enough. I'm not advocating being sloppy either - just be pragmatic about the effort/reward.

Pull requests is not the only way to collaborate in a team. git also works with other tools for review and merging can be done by other means.

IMO the pursuit of, or even a concept of 'clean history' is a fallacy and waste of time. It is a level of obsession which I think is just not worth it. Furthermore, a commit log is not the same thing as release notes. More often t

I was (until earlier this year) on a dev team at a VFX house trying to implement a more agile production management system. The project ultimately failed, in large part because none of the show managers wanted to change how they do things.

It's actually in Selhurst. Though nowadays with the (sub)urban sprawled it's hard to delineate where exactly Norwood, Selhurst and the 'Heath meet or overlap.

I know it well. I have several old prints/lithographs and original photos of the palace hanging at home too :)

I live quite close to what is now crystal palace park. I would have loved to have seen the building, even in ruins. It boggles my mind how the Victorians even managed to relocate the entire structure from Hyde park, especially given that th

> are there any Desktop Linux distros that use this as their build system? I don't think so and I think that is not the goal of the project. It is more like a build system to meet the requirements of "I need to build a set of p

But IMO agile is not at all about measuring productivity, I'm not sure how you'd come to that conclusion? There is, I admit, an element of it in the sprint planning, but that is only meant to be a tool to figure out how much work

I've recently completed my own semi-modular synth build, having deemed buying eurorack both too expensive and too easy: https://photos.app.goo.gl/YDSY4Wo34hvZuDJT6

Also agree. The domain I bought for my family (my wife and myself) is hyphenated after our surnames and it time and again has been a pain to dictate to 3rd party.

The feature is a bit more than this. In the WiFi share screen, the network password is actually displayed in plain text as well. It does require a fingerprint/pattern/pin to show anything though.

So how much padding is in the release package to make the update sized 1337 Mb ? :P

I did. I got my last job in the VFX industry because I'd learned python in my spare time writing external render engine plugins for Blender.
