The issue is there is great software such as [0] Supercollider and [1] Pd. As interfaces are class compliant the drivers actually work suprisingly well on Linux, its just stability and edge case bugs that will catch you out.

I distinctly remember it being not the MIDI standard, and it was really frustrating. I'll report back if I look at it again.

Did you ever come across how they map parameters inside the VST/AU standard? Everyone else does 0 -> 1. They do 1 -> 120 or something completely boffed.

I don't understand what people are talking about when they say they get gouged by phones. Mine cost 180 USD in 2016. I still use it everyday and I get over 10 hours screen time. The issue is people conflate everyday devices of utility with fashion products (Apple, Google Pixel).

You sound like someone who has never had to deal with the horrific experience that is ASIO drivers. People use Mac because CoreAudio is great and obviously windows can't be trusted in a live setting due to the many already documented issues that it has with updating/crashing etc.

If you're interested in this stuff a team i'm in proximity to are working on such problems.

We test with machines that have it, but we don't operate day to day on 10.14. It's more about offering backwards compatibility so the majority of users can benefit.

Sorry but this seems like a classic 'if you have a hammer everything seems like a nail'. There is no problem with the two dimensions that a traditional calendar has. Want to know whats in the future? Turn the page or look further to the right and to the bottom. This just makes it harder to see certain groupings like months/weeks etc.

Why only 10.14 and up? most devs I know havent gone past 10.12.

I used the pip version.

I'm in the same boat. When I do something bad CLI helps me fix it, but otherwise an interface is really useful for me.

It sounds stupid but something that really simplified git to me as an absolute beginner about a year ago was the fact that it doesn't exist on GitHub. Knowing that git was just something that sat in the folder on your filesystem and monitored changes took away the notion that there is some kind of sync between your remote and local. Working just on my own laptop made me realise how intuitive all the commands and strategies for solving problems were. Then came pushing, pulling etc between branches and it all just fell into place.

Just to advance my previous comment; right now the most interesting feature to me is the motif detection, however, the motif's are always incredibly short (or a fixed size?). Please excuse me ignorance in this regard, I'm not too versed in the algorithm. Is there any use cases where you have looked at longer motifs?

It might also be related to the peak-end rule[1]. The most intense feeling of a hike can come in many places, probably at the end if the goal is to get somewhere in particular or to complete a specific goal. Although it might be mostly bad/hard, you remember the end (satisfying) and the peak emotion which is the good feeling.

Cool. Thanks for responding. I'll provide some example code and my specific use case.

You say that the algorithm is fast, and the literature certainly points to this too but I tried the python implementation (linked here) on some audio data sets. 1 second of audio at a reasonable quality is 44.1k data points and it was taking minutes to process this data.

I tried an R implementation which was multi-threaded and a lot faster, but still the algorithm took ages to test lots of different window sizes and data sets.

It probably has the most comprehensive set of apps out of any of the password managers.

Used to be a keepass user until I found bitwarden. It does everything better, more simply. Sync is handled so much better and the browser extensions are super intelligent at picking up login fields.

Okay, I pay almost nothing for my domain.

Provide me with the tools to create a cheap, mobile friendly, HTTPS website and I'm in.

Let me make it really simple for you. Because its cheap and people are greedy.

When you see crap like that being made for $10 you should immediately think "that is made with disgusting labour". No part of you should be impressed with this. Not saying expensive branded stuff is any better, but they arent smart in making a $10 watch - they just don't have the momentum of a big brand to sell it a thousand percent markup.

TLDR; products like this are just a terrible production of waste using barely legal labour. Pay it no attention.

Similar situation here. I live on 7000 GBP p/a and any other income I can find elsewhere which isn't guaranteed. There was a post on Reddit personal finance sub the other day asking for advice on whether they should leave their 320k USD p/a job for a 325k GBP p/a job as an entry level analyst for a hedge fund. Most people just have no idea what it actually is to live close to poverty and so 10 million is easy to come by as a figure for where you're comfortable. To be honest it makes sick. That said I'm the happiest I've ever been and enjoy being a PhD student. You learn s lot by the constraint of minimal income such as how to cook good food and enjoy life without materialism. Not that I was that way before I started my current programme.

Ever thought of making this work with OSC? Then you can get more resolution on the control curves.

Warrant canaries.

You think the creator would at least put a really obvious link to the youtube on his front page.

Ponies are not a fungible currency that underpins almost all of our day-to-day lives.

Some of the other comments in here have overlap with mine, but worth sharing nonetheless imo.

I always stop working when I know I have something to continue. Doesn't mean I don't finish anything but I always have something to return to and don't have that paralysis to start working based on a fear of not knowing what to do.

That leads me to the second point, I keep markdown journals of all my projects as a history of what I was thinking and how things developed. I also make reference points in the journal regarding things I 'could' do the next time I open it.

I am a creative, so often the problems look like...

- Find new B-Format for Ambisonics - Re-factor gesture code

That way I always have something (usually small) to attempt when I need to start work the next day and this will help me tackle the bigger problems as I go.

Sitting down to the work is half the problem.

It's a self made problem that was solved in an interesting way. Of course noone is going to use a portmanteau of every word ever, but if everything was done out of pure utility everything would be a bit stale...no?

What books can you recommend?

Perceptual loudness or just some measure or the rms/foote/peakamp? It's proven that these kinds of audio descriptors are frought when trying to attribute them to any human perception.
