I focus on the compositional aspects of the program, but I do like to be able to audition what I am making! I can use software and hardware synthesizers to do this, but it sounds like you want something with more fundamental building blocks

I hope they are managing to make a living. I have created music software over the decades, going from making a good living during the shrinkwrap software era, to not being able to support full-time development of a mobile music app. I am im

My current favorite is OpusModus https://www.opusmodus.com . It is a commercial app, which will dissapoint some, but is worth the price to me for the level of quality and capabilities. As an added bonus, it is written in Lisp, ca

It is hard on my eyes and the use of emoticons and images seems juvenille, but this type of article and formatting seems to be a popular trend on LinkedIn, Substack and Medium. As to the content of the article itself, I am curious how many

I am having a hard time finding the languages that courses can be designed for. Could you list them here or post a link on your site that shows them. Thanks!

You won't find a lot of polygons, but you would find many interesting surface textures, shaders, lighting effects, simulations and more.

Other than showing up on time for the race, step one of your plan for winning is knowing the position of your competitors. This is road racing 101.

Our final pivot at Be was HARP, the Home Audio Reference Platform, which we thought would be a killer reason to use BeOS. It was not a success.

Apple Finder engineer here from 2000 - 2006 and would never have guessed about double-clicking or option-clicking window edges. This seems more like something I would have added to the Nautilus code in 1999.

The model training time using Lobe is comparable to similar transfer learning tasks using other machine learning frameworks. I did a comparison between Lobe and Turi Create using transfer learning with ResNet and the time were similar. Trai

I see MobileNet and ResNet embedded as application resources. Because of the speed of the training, I suspect they are doing feature transfer learning. While the UI is quite nice (thanks to Mike Matas, I am sure), I don't see a strong

Got it. Can you show an example of modifiying the button label outside of the button click? I am curious how you would modify values outside of the scope of the event handler.

I just downloaded it. Looks nice. Using it has revealed something frustrating that dates back to when I worked on Spotlight (then called Matador) in 2003. Someone (not named to protect the guilty) decided that file extensions should overrid

I developed a fairly complex site using Blazor, starting back in the earliest releases. It was easy to deveolp for and having the depth of .Net (more and more features became available each release) was nice. I also found the build size to

Flutter has a Skia-based backend with GPU acceleration. A bitmap/pixmap solution would be the worst-case scenario and probably only occur on an esoteric platform where GPU support is absent.

Can the native widgets be used instead of the Canvas widgets in the browser hosted view? The definition of layout is nice, but handling state changes is still imperative. Is there a way to have values update without having to explicitly res

I too used to work at Be (Hi!) as well as developed applications for BeOS. I also worked at Apple on various releases of OS X. NextStep was far ahead of BeOS on multiple fronts. BeOS was a lot of fun to work on, but only scratched the surfa
