I’m generalizing, but basically: Live visualization takes a live music performance as input and programmatically generates a video that matches said music performance. The video might pulse along with the beat of the music. Or maybe it chan

What is this equipment called? It sounds like the opposite of a capture card. edit: looking at your updated post, it is called a "playback card."

This isn't good. Most of the live visuals I've seen are in a dimly lit room with a black background. Often this is so that it's hard to see the edges of the screen and the visualization appears to be floating. Having an orang

I used this to tunnel my traffic over SSH in high school. That allowed me to visit blocked websites like Reddit or YouTube. The school IT administrators had already blocked common VPN providers.

I am frustrated that you ignored my main argument about Docker sufficiently serving the same business function as Nix, with lower maintenance. Instead you focused on a semantic argument about one word in my post - "reproducible".

> I don't understand how these are comparable They fulfill similar business functions - allowing you to run the same code on a bunch of dev machines and on prod (modulo modifications for e.g. database storage in Docker's case).

Yes, and Nix can still lose on maintainability in the long run, considering it is more difficult to onboard new devs with it. They have to learn the Nix expression language and write custom bindings for much software instead of calling the

I would like to see it mentioned how to use Nix as a system package manager in MacOS. This guide was exactly what I needed: https://wickedchicken.github.io/post/macos-nix-setup/ and the official documentation made

I don't think so, because some videos have high numbers of views with low numbers of likes and dislikes.

That's really cool that Live has it built in to the piano roll now. I've been using Bitwig with the plugin Scaler 2 for this purpose.

Market share describes what state the world is in. I don’t see what bearing that has on a discussion of what the world should be. OpenBSD implemented the ASLR security mitigation as default in their operating systems first. Windows and ma

I don’t think most people would agree that breaking changes every 6 months fits the definition of “stable” for a firewall.

Just providing a non-coastal example - Pittsburgh is pretty decent for walkability and transit. It is a dense, small (in area) city. Trips by bus are often comparable to the same trip by car. I would say that most neighborhoods in Pittsburg

That is not a useful statistic here. We are talking about an individual’s financial obligations in a medical emergency. A $10,000 bill is not 2% of an individual’s yearly spending.

Question for people in this situation - did you worry you wouldn't get to spend enough time with your kids? Work/life balance can be zero-sum and starting a new business generally leans hard on the work side of things.
