I love these low level/from scratch resources. Recently been doing some game development with Godot. I decided to take a break and make a toy game with just SDL2. Lots of stuff I learned (especially from Lazy Foo’s SDL2 series) helped click a lot of concepts from Godot and let me gain a deeper understanding.

Hmm, this is usually where it fails hardest for me. Maybe it works if your country is the US?
It could be, maybe, but only if the preamp responds to the hdmi out volume control of my apple tv when routed through the tv set. Two remotes is a deal breaker. Also, that’d mean cluttering my living room with an ugly preamp.

The tool seems a great idea (I was equally shocked that it's all Bash scripts, and expected Rust), but calling it -- with bash ./dline -a on MacOS X -- I get plenty of syntax errors.
I think I see what you mean and I should have been more precise. I'll rephrase: most LLMs based on transformer architectures do not rely on the simplistic state transition logic of Markov chains... BUT, while they can use alternative mechanisms such as relative weight (attention), embeddings... they STILL require the pre-existence of exact words, synonyms, or similar/related words in the datasets, correct?
Bad old code has been battle tested. Bad new code has not, and is more likely to have the show stopper bugs you want to avoid.

This is why good tv’s differentiate between the two. (Max volume on the line out is still safe for the receiver and not headphone level.)

It’s just a software feature in the TV’s DAC. Not including it is lazy.
Event attendees post the content — we simply give them the right content at the right time to encourage them to share. From our experience, there are two main reasons people don’t talk about events much: either they don’t have photos to share, or they have pictures but don’t know what to write about.

Our AI solves this by automatically crafting a ready-to-go post. Attendees can tweak it if they want or share it as-is—making it effortless for them to join the conversation.

I think I agree that there's a distinction to be made between information provided on purpose (or for a purpose) and not. However, I think I come to the opposite conclusion: information provided on purpose should have stronger guarantees in favor of the provider's wishes, because purpose implies intent, and intent requires effort to turn into action.

Your likeness, on the other hand, is freely given to all observers, at no real cost or effort to yourself. You just are, and it is. In fact, you touch on this when you talk about "burden" on the provider.

NYCDOT might not be providing their personal information, but effort and cost is required to maintain this infrastructure, and I think the effort begets respect, at the very least.

While I agree that someone should always have some level of input into how their likeness is used, because it truly is no burden on them to provide it, I think respectively less weight should be given to it. I think the best effort should still be given to respecting a person's wishes when it comes to their likeness, of course, but perhaps comparatively less than when someone intentionally shares something that took effort to create.

So it appears in fact I agree with your logic, but have somehow arrived at the opposite conclusion. Perhaps because I consider "burden" more broadly than just the marginal effort of supporting an additional viewer of a camera feed?

Hi, as a freelance sound engineer: this looks decent. Is a logarithmic plot of the resulting curves out of scope? I always found it quite useful especially in combination with a spectrum analyzer.

Other than that: I found it somewhat confusing that your UI groups parameters by type of control (e.g. all frequencies first) instead of grouping them by EQ:

Low Shelve
Frequency
Gain
Q
Bell 1
Frequency
Gain
Q
Bell 2
Frequency
Gain
Q
Bell 3
Frequency
Gain
Q
High Shelve
Frequency
Gain
Q

You appear to have a topmost UI group called "Effect Parameters" maybe it makes sense to utilze these instead to group the EQs — so one of those per band? You could then add an enable button per EQ band as a neat and probably simple to implement feature (especially useful for beginners who haven't developed their ears as they can toggle the band off and on and hear what it is doing).

Other than that I would just miss High and Lowpass filters. Especially HP filters are a thing that are extremely useful for cleaning up mic rumble and unwanted proximity effect, bonus points for variable steepness (6/12/18/24 db/Oct). In my dialog mixing time there wasn't a single channel without a HP on it (except those who already had it baked in of course).

Since you have a L/R stereo mode maybe an alternative Mid/Side mode could be considered as well.

Another question: do you prevent EQ cramping?

> The Hastert rule says that the speaker will not schedule a floor vote on any bill that does not have majority support within their party—even if the majority of the members of the House would vote to pass it. The rule keeps the minority party from passing bills with the assistance of a minority of majority party members.

This is obstructionism, and partisanship in it's purest form. Who would institute such a rule? If a majority of the people's representatives will pass some legislation, it should be passed!
It looks similar but I'm not sure it's the same.

IIUC the new article is about taking a "photograph" of the magnetiation in a real sample, and the old article is a theoretical prediction. Perhaps the new article should be presented as a confirmation instead of a discovery, but press releas are full of omisions and overhype.

No, they found what they were really looking for, and it was enough for them, so they have simply chosen to adapt by seeking ever more lucrative pursuits. At some point, search simply became more of a cost than a benefit, looks to me, or at least less prioritized.

Economic pursuits dictate why, which, how, and when more idealistic goals are prioritized.

AI search does not have to come at the expense of qualitative organic results. It does not have to be one or the other.

I refuse to pick one!

Do you remember when Google Ads were on the RIGHT SIDEBAR and at the very top of organic results? Do you remember when Google Ads did not pollute organic results?

Same logic applies to AI overviews: Google could have found a balanced approach in terms of quality and layout.
looks like the DSP is using a TDF-2 biquad filter topology. This can have undesirable artifacts in the presence of modulation/automation. Normally that's fine (it's why the classic EQ cookbook formula and design has lasted so long) but in a music application it's inappropriate.

There are a lot of alternatives out there today, the most popular being either the Cytomic or Zavalishin's SVF implementation. You can also use those to deal with cramping near Nyquist without resorting to oversampling.

Also, why limit to five bands? It's 2024, give me an arbitrary number of bands. Otherwise it's not really more useful than the builtins in any DAW.

Thanks for sharing myrepos, it looks pretty interesting. I also came across gitbatch, another tool for managing local git repos.

It seems that these tools are more focused on being able to manage these repos, with myrepos offering a more granular control (I wish they had a demo though, it took me some time to understand what it does).

With repocheck I am focusing more on getting a quick report of the status of local repos. So I am prioritizing on visibility of local git repos as opposed to management. As for managing the repos, I built my project with the capability of providing tsv and json output, so that users have the freedom to use it in conjunction with other tools and scripts if needed

When you are forced to use ma outlook but you only want to work with your calendar and not be distracted to emails, or notification, or emojis.

Overall these type of cmd line tools like taskwarrior are for folks who want one thing at that time and wish to take the shortest, least cognitive overhead path to getting that thing/info. Same reason I use tz instead of browsing to a site with Timezone calculators. Same reason I use vifm to find and edit files.

But duckdb has its own on-disk format, and it generally is the best performing thing to scan (as opposed to always just querying, say, parquet files in S3).

So if you want to use the duckdb native format, and you have a lot of data... what do you do? How do you keep your duckdb file up to date with incoming data to your data lake? Maybe you just... don't? Have a daily rebuild of your ephemeral-ish duckdb node?

It seems like it would be kind of a pain to manage once you get to moderate scale (say, TB+ datasets).
The biggest added value is that it works. Before LLMs we tried all kinds of stuff, including purely statistical methods, and anything more complex than scripted responses was incredibly hard to keep coherent for more than five sentences. GPT2 had similar issues, but modern LLMs are incredibly good.

But ultimately the goal are models that have a decent world model and can reason about it. A model that you can ask for a python program that does something completely novel, and you get a working result. We are somewhere on that road, far beyond what we were able to do with statistical methods but still not nearly as good as we wish.
Thank you! Let me know if there are any features you would like this tool to have.
Sure. What's the point in worrying about that now? That circumstance is so far removed from current experience I'm not sure there's anything useful we could do to prepare before it happens.

Without this kind of information, how are safety-conscious consumers supposed to make a decision? That is, we're told "caveat emptor" and to take personal responsibility, but we can't if information is withheld or not collected.

At least on a quick reading, the study overlooks the adversarial nature of legal drafting. Laws and contracts are optimized to be quick to write while avoiding the constructions that are easy to attack. Put differently, it’s often an attempt to write defensively while being lazy.

Center embedding—embedding a definition of a subject or object in the middle of a sentence—is hard to read but makes it harder to argue that a particular definition doesn’t apply to a particular sentence. For many hard to read constructions, you can probably achieve the same result in a way that’s easier to read while being just as hard to attack, but that might take more analysis during the writing.

Hi, thanks for asking. I’ve written way too much so here’s the tldr: I’m used to love it and my brain didn’t forget. They somehow cheat my brain fair enough. I love tempeh and many other thinks though.

—-a bit longer—-

Have had meat/fish/whatever mostly every meal until ~20yo then slowly reduce it to almost vegetarism around ~30yo then transitioned to almost vegan now (36yo). I do that mostly for the animals welfare, bonus points if environmental benefits.

Why I eat those disgusting patties:

- I like them now. Taste is an affair of habits, and I believe also an affair of more-or-less conscious will. Traditional Chinese food is and smell horrible (no offense for the Chineses). I’m sure it I was born over there they would be great. I don’t buy at all "objectively bad". Wholegrain patties were dry and tasteless but after trying and trying they got way better (depends on the quality/brand ofc), exactly like it took me ~5 years to really appreciate red wine. Realizing that I love falafels and that those were cousins in taste and ingredients helped too. It’s weird how what you think can modify your taste. It also makes me realize that falafel often comes with tahini or a whole meal, so should I for the wholegrain patties and they became even more better.

- When I crave for meat, more processed stuff do a better job. They don’t taste exactly the real stuff, nonetheless inside a barbecued burger or (sausage) in a stew, or nuggets, they do trigger my childhood memories and I’m don’t feel craving anymore. I mimic those food to act as a confort food. There’s also great way to invent recipe. So many delicious non-meat recipe would be great with meat, and vice versa. I don’t like to follow too precisely recipes anyway :p

- There’s no tempeh in the restaurants where I live, it’s often tofu or nothing. The steakhouses sometimes got a behondmeat burger. I feel like you with the soy hot dog. I acknowledge my chance to be rich enough to eat as much as I want and to have the choice to go in restaurants. So when I eat what they have, in the end not so a bad situation.

- Some people says your wallet votes more than your ballot. Buying those stuff make a very small impact on the sales of the merchant/maker. It also support their presence on the shelves among animal-sourced food and I think it helps veganism to move through the Overton window. I don’t eat them directly for that but when I do it makes me feel proud so I think there’s some psychology loop that make me eat them again.

- curiosity and gourmandise: I love cooking and eating and they’re an opportunity to change when I’m bored.

- Tofu is a bit fade, when smoked or marinade it way better. It is also very helpful for patisserie. It’s a traditional food very healthy, I don’t see it as a substitute but as a discovery of another culture (like tempeh).

Machine guns?

The ATF is simply going on function rather than form. It shoots like a machine gun it is a machine gun no matter what you call it.

That being said, bump stocks are a simple enough concept that banning them is stupid. We should quite our obsession over machine guns--there are few situations where it even matters.

The problem with it going through congress is that it will always be political rather than scientific. The agencies don't do a good job, but a lot of that is because of garbage they are saddled with by congress (think of the machine guns--the basic problem is that the legal and practical definitions are out of sync) and a lot of it is because politics manages to get in anyway.

How about a middle ground: agencies can make rules but they must give their reasoning and supporting evidence--and anyone can challenge such in court. You can't go after the ruling but if you can knock out it's supports it goes away. This would cut both ways--exempt something from a more general ruling and the reason for the exemption can be challenged. (And I'd like to see the same thing for laws.)

Open source video models are going to beat closed source. Ecosystem and tools matter.

Midjourney has name recognition, but nobody talks about Dall-E anymore. The same will happen to Sora. Flux and Stable Diffusion won images, and Hunyuan and similar will win video.

Hunyuan, LTX-1, Mochi-1, and all the other open models from non-leading foundation model companies will eventually leapfrog Sora and Veo. Because you can program against them and run them locally or in your own cloud. You can fine tune them to do whatever you want. You can build audio reactive models, controllable models, interactive art walls, you name it.

Sora and Veo just aren't interesting. They're at one end of the quality spectrum, and open models will quickly close that gap and then some.
I suspect most people never employ a lawyer, and most people don’t go around doing illegal things.
