Wow, yeah it seems entirely plagiarized. It's still a very strange song, but I don't think the AI did anything noteworthy here. Thanks for looking into it!

I highly highly recommend listening to the track called "Test_energylevel", it is absolutely bonkers, and more interesting than any of the other tracks I clicked on here. (You have to click on "Explore" and then scroll d

I also enter an absurdly old date, and usually I'll try setting an impossible day/month combo like February 31st... sometimes it actually works!

This may seem silly, but one of my main reasons for using IntelliJ over Eclipse is because it has a nice looking dark theme. I've tried using the dark theme on Eclipse, and on both Windows and OS X it had very bright scroll bars that c

I'll have to look into WavePot, but I'll say that SonicPi is built first and foremost for live-coding; making music in realtime while coding. There's some other languages that focus on this - Gibber in the browser, Tidal in H

And maybe that enjoyment will make you a happier person in general, which will in turn make you more productive because you won't worry and second-guess yourself so much.

Check out The Echo Nest API for some inspiration - I'm pretty sure Spotify and some similar services use it for their recommendations. http://developer.echonest.com/docs/v4

I've had the same issues - with some updates it gets better or worse, it's pretty annoying. Another thing that concerns me with the app is that the setting to only download/stream tracks on wifi doesn't seem to be honore

I'm using Arch and I really like it. However, it does take way more time and effort to install than the more mainstream distros like Ubuntu and Fedora, especially if you're like me and you're used to things like wifi "ju

Was it the "Yeah" that made the tone seem sarcastic? I didn't really mean it that way, I genuinely do think it would be interesting to see what happens. Sometimes I wish I had been taught math from a more theoretical perspect

Yeah, it would be interesting to learn about pure functions and referential transparency before basic algebra.

My Windows 10 installation fscked up my linux partitions that were on the same drive, and I was unable to repair tem... probably my own fault for not being careful, but very aggravating. The OS itself seems fairly smooth, though.

I think the gain that people are aiming for is "write once, run everywhere." Especially if you're a lone developer - it's one thing to learn the intricacies of one platform (like web), but learning the ecosystems for And

I've been waiting for something like this, it looks great! I hope it can work with "babel-node" without any hiccups, so I can keep my server on ES6.

There were occasionally minigames in Mario Party or similar games that required you to rotate the control stick as quickly as you could - the stick was not padded, so you could really hurt your thumb (or the palm of your hand, if you chose

Do you have any more info on how you set that up? I kinda want a gaming PC but I like my current laptop/monitor setup, maybe I could leave the PC sitting in the corner of the room running headless, and stream the content to my laptop?

How do you like koa? I really like the way it handles async stuff with coroutines. I'm wondering if it will have lasting appeal, though, because ES7 should introduce async/await to javascript, which will probably replace the corou

None of that comment seemed unreasonable to me - I've had large over-ear sets of headphones that require me to turn the volume up pretty high. It takes more to drive them, that's why some people own headphone amps. Compare that to

Alright, you've piqued my interest! I've had a couple of electronics projects in mind, mostly audio-related, like building MIDI controllers, experimenting with modular synthesizers, setting up a MIDI-controlled Gameboy synthesizer

If web ads were more like newspaper ads, I think I would find them more agreeable. Newspaper ads don't animate and distract me from what I'm reading. When I flip to a different page in the paper I don't have to "wait ten

Have you looked into hosting from universities? I recently read about plans to move Pure Data (flow-based audio programming environment) to Oregon State University's Open Source Labs. Maybe they would be open to hosting Octave-Forge.
