People started paying me to develop software in 1986. First time I ever used version control software was 1996. It was TERRIBLE. Two years later I left to start my own software company, but my experience with it to that…
I don't remember the exact numbers, but I remember seeing a CAD file that was not working well a few years ago, and it turned out the coordinate system set up for the part was roughly equivalent to building a part the…
AppleCare+ is usually 48-hours downtime in my experience, and that's with the need to ship the laptop to and from the repair center.
I've listened quite a lot to her Rodgers and Hart songbook, and the idea she doesn't understand what she's singing never once entered my mind.
First span of the Blue Water Bridge (Port Huron to Sarnia) built 1938, doing just fine as far as I know. (Drove over it a couple of weekends ago.) Second span was 1997.
Was just looking at buying a new printer a few minutes ago. Do people have recommendations for printers free of all this HP-style nonsense?
Ugh, now I'm torn between wild urges to write a Raku backend for Fusion or port my C++ libraries to Fusion, neither of which is anything like a sensible project in the short term. (Possibly any term.)
That "not changing habits" thing has nothing to do with Ozempic. Based on my experience with the drug (taken six months for type 2 diabetes), you won't lose any weight at all on it UNLESS you change your habits. What…
I've been actively using Raku for work for 13 years now. (Okay, we didn't call it Raku yet at the beginning.) Pros: - Wonderfully expressive and powerful - The best glue language I've ever worked with - Indented…
I think the proof mindseet was a huge help to me as a beginning programmer, BUT that was in the context of high school Euclidean geometry, not analysis, around the same time I was first learning a programming language…
I loved my Commodore 128, but I don't even remember a Commodore 128D being a thing. I suppose at that point I may have been fondly dreaming of the Amiga I would never get.
First professional software development I did, we didn't even have hard drives or networking. Luckily I was the only developer and it wasn't a huge problem. First place I worked with other people, we at least had hard…
I was wrong about "Another Night in Tunisia" -- the solo Jon sings starting around 1:40 actually has lyrics. I think the melody scatting for most of the rest of the song is actually Bobby McFerrin. Oh, there we go, the…
He wrote the lyrics for that entire album (Vocalese) and sings on it too -- one of the solos on "Airegin", and a scat solo somewhere else (maybe the Night in Tunisia thing, been a while since I listened). He also wrote…
"Sing Joy Spring", lyrics by Jon Hendricks. Jon wrote lyrics to dozens (hundreds?) of jazz solos. Was one hell of a singer, too -- check him out singing John Coltrane's solo on "Freddie Freeloader" [1] [1]…
Indeed, it's zero now, 15 minutes later.
Ha, pretty sure I heard Jon Hendricks sing "In Walked Bud" live, but never had a recording of it. Thanks for the tip on that it was on Underground!
30 years ago was right around the time I wrote JPEG viewing software so I could look at JPEGs on my computer. :) I mean, I got the actual JPEG decoding from whatever the standard open source implementation was at the…
Geez, was the "open source" link there all along and I just missed it? Thank you!!
Right? Its creator obviously knows Forth, but it feels like they've gone to extreme lengths to make it prefix rather than postfix, at the price of making it much more confusing than it needs to be? It's really not…
This is a fantastic idea! I had no trouble playing scales along the row. Is the source code available? As a C#/D player, I find the relationships between the rows unfriendly, and miss the bottom two buttons of the row.…
I obviously cannot speak for everyone, but when I play music from memory (and yes, often with my eyes closed) there isn't any visualization at all. It's all a combination of sound and muscle memory. Indeed, for plenty…
Friends recorded this album --https://alisonperkinsandnicolasbrown.bandcamp.com/album/all-... -- with A somewhere in the neighborhood of 360Hz.
If you're just talking about old enough to have a grandchild, 50 is plenty old -- indeed, old enough to have gotten married after college, had a kid who got married after college, and that kid now has a kid of their…
Nothing against the Asahi team, it sounds like they're doing fantastic work. But I'm a little surprised at the talk (which I've seen before) which indicates theirs is the first approach allowing you to use Linux on ARM…
