Should’ve gone the art-industry route instead of this. Posting any kind of ai-generated art in an art community gets hostile pretty quickly.

This piece is my favorite: https://youtu.be/Piw53UPooYU?si=WJIjWDKJUJ8HrDPO Können Tränen meiner Wangen

Karl Richter’s version is my personal favorite but there’s lots of different recordings. IMO Bach’s St Matthew Passion is the best piece of musical art, maybe art in general too idk.


I’d wager that like half the teams (at least) using kubernetes today should be using Nomad instead. Like the team I’m on now where I’m literally the only one familiar with Kubernetes and everyone else only has familiarity with more classic EC2-based patterns. Getting someone to even know what Helm does is its own uphill battle. Nomad is a lot more simple. That’s what I like about it a lot.


I'm not very musically inclined but this is what I was able to make:

$: arrange( [4, "<sh09_bd>(4,8)"], [4, "<sh09_bd>(4,8)"], [1, "<sh09_bd mfb512_sd>(6,6)"] ).s().fast(2).layer(x=>x.add("0,2")).gain(".4!2 .5").phaser(2).phasercenter("<4000 800 4000 4000>")

$: s("gm_tinkle_bell").distort("<1 2 1 2:.5>").crush("<8 8 8 6 6 8 8>").chop(4)

$: arrange( [2, "<c4 e4 g4>(3,8)"], [1, "<f4 a4 c5>(3,8)"], [1, "<c4 e4 g4>(3,8)"] ).note().chop(4).fast(4).distort("<3:.5>").phaser(4).phasercenter("<800>").fm(4).fmdecay("<.05 .05 .1 .2>").fmsustain(.4)._scope()

I don't know what half this stuff does but it was still so much fun and this is probably one of my favorite projects ever. What made it most fun for me is that the reference docs are in the page so it's really easy to pick something at random and just see what it does.


As a complete beginner to hardware stuff, I do find the Arduino Cloud thing to be pretty compelling. Being able to push out updates over the cloud is nice! Buuuut.. once I'm mostly done with a project, there's just no need at all for it anymore. The Arduino I'm using for a receipt printer is just sitting there and now the cloud bit doesn't do anything for me.

And the problem I have is that ESP32s aren't much more difficult to set up nowadays, are wildly cheaper, and I'm soso excited to start messing around with ESP-NOW which I don't think Arduino has? But having like 10 ESP32s for messing around freely is more valuable than the cloud thing for me. And there are some super fun projects for ESP32 also like the Cheap Yellow Display thing. I ordered what I thought was one display, except it was 3, and I thought I would have to provide my own ESP32s but nope, they come with them. And these three CYDs were cheaper than a single Arduino it's actually crazy.


Yeah, ESPnow is pretty good. I'm using it more than LoRa because all ESP32 come with it and is really cheap, whereas with LoRa is all the trouble with an additional module that costs 3x more than an ESP32.

That yellow display is pretty good. I've built a tiny operating system for it, it is an unbelievable hardware for the cost of the material.


I think for me personally although I don’t use maths often enough in any practical sense, the one thing I think has stopped me progressing in life how I feel I want to has been my lack of maths knowledge. I don’t mean in a career sense but in an enjoyment sense. I watched a video about proving that the square root of two is irrational and that made me irrationally happy, and I’d love to keep going but a lot of the maths in other proofs or concepts gets absolutely insane. I don’t know how to express that to kids learning maths for the first time, though. It also almost feels like the world of math is so vast there’s something for everyone to enjoy casually. That feels like a video game analogy to me with all the different genres built around basic fundamental concepts.


I'm looking at Verdaccio currently, since Artifactory is expensive and I think the CE version still only supports C++. Does anyone have any experience with Verdaccio?


I guess it's hands off the npm jar for a week or three 'cause I am expecting a bunch more packages to be affected at this point.


I used OpenResty + Lua + Redis to implement a quick blacklist for an ad platform like 10 years ago. It really does make everything so simple and it's pretty fun to work with.


Sounds so similar to something we had set up when I worked for a major retailer a few years ago. In order to get a cert you had to email the security team or some junk like that and THEY would go through the digicert UI. I stopped reading the absolutely giant and incredibly confusing certificate support document and swapped everything I was responsible for to ACM.

Side note, at some point I got an email telling me to stop issuing public certificates and only issue private certs. I had to get on a call with someone and explain PKI. To someone on the security team!
