Ardour.org | audio software developers/engineers | INTERN-ish | Remote

Ardour is a 23-year old FLOSS cross-platform native digital audio workstation. We have a tiny team of 2.5 developers and need/want to attract a few younger minds to the project. We currently cannot offer a full-time paid position, but we can pay for specific projects to be completed - projects that you'd need to identify, want to do, and ratify with the core team. Rates and scope of the work are variable. You will need to be sufficiently self-motivated to both decide what to do, and to actually implement it, though we will provide mentorship and guidance to the right people.

You'll need fairly solid C++ skills, and of course git, but more than that, the ability to confront a large, mature codebase and figure out how to work with it to accomplish whatever task you embark on. The current core developers are located near Santa Fe, Berlin and Nashville. All work is remote, timezone-independent and largely unstructured. Work is coordinated mostly via IRC.

Ultimately, we're looking for people who, in perhaps 5-10 years, may become the new core developers. Ardour currently brings in more than US$200k/yr and we hope to expand this over the next few years, possibly making a full time position possible at that time.

https://ardour.org/development.html will give some ideas about the technology and approaches we use. Contact paul@ardour.org for more information.
Does china strike you as particularly religious? You dont even need IQ tests. Students naturally fall on a distribution if tested. And those students generally test in the same range their whole life.
> you're angry about it

Why is it okay for one side to be angry, but not the other? This is such a commonly used accusation to deflate someone else's point. Making them seem emotional, and therefore illogical.

FWIW, I don't think the person you're replying to looks even a little bit angry in that post. The point of view seems well considered.

Nice! How long does it last on a charge? That's one of the main advantages of the DX-350 over later Realistic digital tuned models, runs forever on a set of 4x AA batteries.

There's still some interesting stuff out there, I found a program called "Alt Universe Top 40" sandwiched in between the usual religion programs on WRMI. Good enough to bother tuning in every week, and they upload to Mixcloud too so you can still listen if conditions are poor. They also send QSL cards :P
They never figured out the actual mechanism involved, just that running Discord caused the connection issue, and that when Discord wasn't running, they could connect to a server and play the game.
So yes, there are multiple other visa schemes.

When it comes to the UK, you can be sure that you will get lots of hyperbole and pretty minimal facts about this kind of thing. Not a year ago, the govt was getting criticized for creating "skilled visa schemes" for workers earning under ~£20k/year...yes, there are schemes for visas people earning over this amount too. Last year, 1m visas were awarded, this is the highest level ever.

In terms of startup funding: I believe there are now multiple multi-billion funds that are investing directly in startups, these funds even operate below the national level, Scotland has two directly run by the govt for example, local govt even has these, the govt announced today a multi-billion package for semiconductors, there are (I believe) currently three tax incentive schemes for startups.

It is important to understand that a change that is counter to this direction could just be because it is simpler to fold this kind of thing in to other services (this may just be me: I don't think having private companies involved in the visa award process is a good idea...just having Barclays do incubation is a good idea...and btw, private incubators usually have these relationships with banks too).

Of course, everything is still going to be placed within some weird narrative about "corruption" or Brexit...just UK things...

All roles and applications here!: https://www.v7labs.com/working-at-v7
A script will eventually return to the event loop, where endUpdate() may be called automatically. You don’t even need beginUpdate(), because it may be hidden behind update methods.

Every time I read about DOM I frustrate about how many frontend issues are there due to just bad platform-level patterns. We’re long past the need of reflecting updates auto-instantly in a single call to the engine. And that wasn’t even necessary before.
100%. I see a lot of originality in web serials and fiction by indie authors. I've more or less stopped reading books that were curated by the Big Five publishing houses.
Try to solve user problems? (Maybe they were, just not ours.)
Yep, that's my point. The abstractions are a means to an ends. And are worth their overhead in many cases. So calling them pure overhead, for sake of performance, is absurd as calling js framework as pure overhead

> After the meeting, jamie generates the summary for you in seconds

This is cool, but sometimes you want only a summary, sometimes you want a clear list of decisions and actions (with owners), and sometimes you literally want a word-for-word transcription of who said what.

I've seen wildly varying company cultures regarding their approach to note taking. I worked for a company once where the SVP and above folks were treated as kind of god-kings, where every word they spoke had to be written down and agonized over. Felt like those guys following Kim Jong-un around with little notebooks. Even something casually mentioned would become a real project with dozens of staff, just because it was uttered by a SVP during a meeting once. Other places I've worked barely took any notes, and your team's priorities and expected work was passed around by word of mouth like a terrible game of telephone. Everywhere is different!

I would say that anybody without an intellectual disability can learn college algebra. There is a lack of motivation and a lack of training that prevents people from succeeding.
> I’m disappointed in all the anthropomorphizing

It’s not anthropomorphizing it’s a description and an analogy.

Neural networks work similar to a brain, and it’s easier to describe them that way because, again, they were modelled that way.

It’s not a perfect analogy, but your offence would indicate you have a lack of understanding in communication, neural nets, or you’re trying to blow things out of proportion for some reason.
Another Password Manager Leak Bug: But KeePass Denies CVE

As churchgoing declines in the United States and Britain, people are turning instead to internet gurus, and some personality types are particularly suited to thriving in this attention economy. Look at the online preachers of seduction, productivity, wellness, cryptocurrency, and the rest, and you will find extremophiles everywhere, filling online spaces with a cacophony of certainty. Added to this, the algorithms governing social media reward strong views, provocative claims, and divisive rhetoric. The internet is built to enable extremophiles.

And that's why I never engage(d) with any MSM. It's like Satan's entourage has joined the server. I'm not religious but I can much more appreciate now that behavioral provisions exist in most (all?) religions.

Are you calling a C compiler overhead as well? Ahead of time compilation is not runtime overhead, and for users of the web, runtime and network latency are all that matters with regard to the perception of speed.
I firmly believe that you don't understand statistics on a basic level, and you've wholly demonstrated that in this comment by throwing around a bunch of "explanations" with no basis but your own intuition. So the irony of your opening assertion has a wonderfully humorous tinge to me, a literal statistician. Take your pseudo-intellectual trolling back to reddit.

I got a good laugh out of them, if I was the conspiratorial sort I'd think that the thread is being astroturfed. However my personal guess is there's a lot of posters from a certain English speaking nation that's anti-NATO and gets a lot of anti-NATO propaganda from it's government and media. So they're just reciting talking points.
Agree, and I think this is the point of the article too.

If we are going to say things like "React is fast" then it needs a further clarification - fast compared to what?

Are we comparing it to C, jQuery, Angular, Pure Javascript, or a Commedore 64? Because it doesn't make sense to say it is fast if there isn't something to compare it against.

(In reality, I suspect it is only really "fast" if you compare it with something slow).
He worked in a parmacy and his father's a doctor... as he likes to parrot.
If you're interested in going down the rabbit hole, as far as I'm aware the concept first came up in Guy Debord's The Society of Spectacle. It's a bit of a weird read though.

The term did take on a wider meaning in political philosophy and critical theory since, however.

Now that I think about it, Embrace Extend Extinguish can be understood as the explicit application of the process recuperation to the free software counterculture.
It’s not just that the critical bit for the 800 number is: “That’s because the criteria adopted by the IUCN and others for declaring species extinct are very stringent, requiring targeted research. It’s also because we often simply don’t know what is happening beyond the world of vertebrate animals that make up perhaps 1 percent of known species.”

A great number of species have been described by finding a tiny number of members in a small geographic area. For many of them we just don’t know if they are still around or not and nobody is funding research to check.
No need to be pedantic. He's obviously saying that there are better strategies then vDOM with lower overhead.

This is proven by Solid.js which is faster then every VDOM framework, has an API that is functionally the same as react, and doesn't use VDOM.
> No, but you would be discriminated against.

That doesn't mean anything. Discrimination is a matter of degree. Everyone gets discriminated against pretty often to lesser degrees. If you tell me about your horoscope I'll roll my eyes and probably not want to hang out with you very much because of your spiritual beliefs.

Are people refusing to sell you good and services? Calling you names? Throwing bricks through your windows?

Is it putting more of a damper on you living a happy life than the occasional moment of discomfort because someone thinks something you think is dumb? People think lots of my beliefs are dumb, and that's fine, as long as I can go about my day.

> Announcing that your are LGBTQ is the quickest way to advance in the company and receive accolades.

First, I doubt a gay new hire can reach C suite with nothing but a couple of rainbows and dildos for qualifications.

Second, office politics are crappy, but you either cope or move on, with maybe a lawsuit if you have a legal leg to stand on.
This goes against what we have seen with the Flynn effect in multiple East Asian countries.
Ask HN: Who Is Not Hiring?
Are there any startups out there that are doing well and don't need to hire more people to scale?
Only if they're in low enough orbits to make use of atmospheric drag. Such orbits decay quickly if the vehicle does not have boost capacity. Given the extremely long missions this thing flies - several missions over 700 days - it seems unlikely for it to make use of atmospheric drag. It might do so when in a highly elliptical orbit but even then it needs to perform a burn at apogee to keep it from re-entering before long.
It depends how really you use virtual DOM. React's "reconciliate whole world" approach can be excessive, yes.

But, for example in Sciter, vDOM works in [web] component cases that are similar to Svelte:

class Beers extends Element {
bottles;

render() {
return <span .bottles>{this.bottles}</span>
}

set value(v) {
this.componentUpdate({bottles:v})
}
}

When you will do

document.$(".bottles").value = 12;

it will update only what is needed. Pretty much Svelte style but with the convenience of vDOM.
I am pretty sure blogging about this removes 90% of the supposed tracking protections.
The links to the specific missions on the wikipedia page have some expert conjecture, based on observations by amateur skywatchers, so we have a good idea that it's being used to launch military surveillance and communications satellites, as well as being used to test new hardware. Which is all rather broad and generic, but if it were aliens, it's not like they'd tell us anyway.

Even if it were actually confirmed that OTV-1 launched a military surveillance satellite, we still wouldn't know how good it is at that other than some hard limits due to physics (mirror size and atmospheric interference).
Look at 'Strong towns'. Not exactly what GP said, but close enough.

FTC Loses Antitrust Challenge to Facebook/Meta
Measurement of IQ seems to be lacking due to it missing the goal of estimating capacity to learn independent of external factors (I.e. either very *shallow* types of diversity [sex, race, etc], or more meaningful types of diversity [language, sensory abscences, etc]).

It's problematic because sometimes IQ tests will require a mix/match of:
- Literacy
- English language understanding
- Extensive Vocabulary
- Sight / Hearing

Of course literacy worked around with filling in pictures, but that just shifts us to the requirement of certain sensory input.
Requiring English can be worked around by translating to any language, but doesn't address literacy requirements.
One big issue I have is seeing vocabulary involved in these tests, which is outright not testing intelligence, but rather experience with a language.

For example, try testing ChatGPT for it's IQ. You'll see very clearly that an IQ test is not made for a system which doesn't have visual capabilities. Perhaps it would be able to from the domain of given the chance - but we don't know because the test is flawed. That is precisely the thing an IQ test should be able to measure - capacity to learn, regardless of the sensory input fed to the system.
I switched from Angular to React 8 years ago, and I've no interest in Svelte. If I recall correctly the primary problem with Angular was $watch, race conditions, etc, meanwhile with React your state is your state, purely functional and idempotent, which is a feature of "reactive programming". Reactive programming is fantastic.

Should the penalty for upsetting a judge be life minus the 10 years you were already looking at? This just tells me the justice system is fucked.
I'm not telling you the A-10 isn't great. It is! If an engineer can look at a cutaway drawing of an A-10 without feeling a great swelling in their heart, are they even truly alive?

Yes, the A-10 is insanely superior for CAS, for all of the reasons you mentioned. If your enemy is so impoverished and cut off from allies that it doesn't have dirt cheap MANPADs or anything else from the last several decades of anti-aircraft technology.

There are of course mitigation strategies for AA. Combined arms are a thing. SEAD is a thing. Utilizing weather/darkness/terrain is a thing. Cutting your enemies off from arms shipments is a thing. Hammering them with CAS until they have proven they can actually thwart it is a thing.

It's just that a lot of those mitigations start to break down when your foe's AA is "a dude carrying a cheap, essentially fire-and-forget portable weapon who can duck back into a cave, a house, or a literal hole in the ground and instantly blend back in with the populace or otherwise become effectively invisible."

This isn't theory.

You can see countless examples for yourself of Russian choppers and slow (but faster than A-10, I think) Su-25 getting absolutely wrecked in Ukraine in exactly the manner I have described. As a result, the fight has largely turned into a ground war with Russia chucking missiles at Ukraine but only from safely within Russian airspace. And this is Russia's military we're talking about; they have copiously demonstrated that they're not particularly concerned about the casualties they're racking up. The US tends to be far more conservative and risk-averse.

You can say that the US would utilize combined arms, SEAD, etc more effectively than Russia. I'd agree; it'd be hard to do much worse. But the fundamental reality is that AA (particularly against unstealthy foes) has gotten really good, really cheap, really portable, and much harder to suppress.
I wonder how much of this is due to there not being a majority in many large cities anymore? I'm in LA and there's no white majority. It is a "majority minority" city.
Nice try, but Republicans are doing a good job of that.
In order to put white men in their place, they must understand that their opinion doesn't matter because they are white men. They cannot know adversity, they cannot have any opinion on minority issues. Therefore, if you want to participate in a discussion today your best bet is to try not to appear obviously white or male, and if you must concede that fact you ought to apologize for having an opinion in the first place, since nobody asked for it.

Being an unapologetic white male would imply that you felt like you could give your opinion freely without having someone immediately attack it as invalid because of your race and gender.

But I guarantee that every time a term like this gets used, the replies will imply that anyone identifying as an unapologetic white male is in fact racist.

It's a great demonstration of how the counter culture has in fact become culture. Anybody who really doubts this probably doesn't have kids or spend much time around younger adults.

Adani abandons $2.5B share sale in big blow to Indian tycoon
The creation of Pakistan is one of the biggest mistakes in modern history. The only country created on the basis of religion, thanks to the nonsensical Two Nation Theory https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-nation_theory. It was created so Muslims can be safe in their own country, but ironically Muslims in India enjoy a way better life and future prospects. As an Indian I wish the country gets rid of its weird Muslim superiority complex and adopts secular values so peace between our nations becomes a real possiblity.
