if i worked at framework i would say something like "hey, we're sorry, we didn't know! that doesn't align with our values here at framework and we'll do better. thanks for informing us!" and yay problem solved. but instead they are turning off the discord server and such because everyone quit

n queens problem is yuri

haha yeah that bluesky discourse sounds really interesting! thanks for sharing. btw the scientists are letting me out of my cell to spend 10 minutes with the mysterious artifact tomorrow so they can run more tests

Microsoft employees occupy headquarters in protest of Israel contracts. The protest encampment started today, and it’s the biggest escalation of the protests at Microsoft so far www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

this code now deals with rotations in quaternions, Euler angles as well as Rodrigues vectors (not to mention a few different coordinate systems). maybe i can throw some matrices in there too in case its not confusing enough

i have ideas on how to add interesting performance features to my midi-controlled livecoding setup, but they all need more buttons. another midi fighter would fit nicely but theyre €€€... so i may go with a cheap mechanical numpad + qmk hacking. i should have some leftover switches & caps 🤔

trying out a new and unusual tea: white leaf sencha i dont really have the right brewing apparatus for this but it tastes nice regardless

i made sweeping updates to my nix-darwin config for my new-ish machines, fully expecting it to break on my laptop which is still on macos 10.14. but in fact it still rebuilds perfectly fine, because i have all the known problematic packages pinned to nixpkgs 23.05. sometimes all the pain is worth it

always fascinated by music in 6/8 and how it can be counted in two (obvious) ways which can make the same track feel totally different

i wanna thank everyone who joined the "nested" listening party and/or bought the album!! 🥰 thanks to your support im replacing my old glitchy router and hopefully will soon have stable internet again in case you missed it, you can listen to the album here! https://pulu.bandcamp.com/album/nested

in 2021 i released https://pulu.bandcamp.com/album/numbers-game, made with experimental audio generative deep learning tools. although this work has little relation to contemporary "AI", even this weak association with the field haunts me. i wrote an addendum on the album page with my thoughts on it

woah emacs 30 just asked me for mic permission when booting scsynth!!! this wasnt in 29.1, you had to manually grant it with tccutil or something or else audio input just didnt work. love to see it

Whatever happens to musicians will happen to everybody

people talk about 80-character lines as if its some archaic convention but im usually working with a three column layout so i dont really like longer lines

currently in the depths of updating nix due to a chain of events whose beginning ive lost track of

after all these years im still regularly listening to this demo track for Reason 2. what a timeless trance masterpiece https://youtu.be/IWDhC30NyPQ

i regret to report that my old black nail polish which was turning thick and sticky the last time i tried it was in fact not any less thick and sticky this time

i was trying to find out if there are any plans for notification grouping in Megalodon, only to find out it is now unmaintained 😔 i guess Moshidon is the replacement, but tragically it lacks the cute pink shark icon

never thought i would be putting together an emo outfit for the first time ever in my 30s, but here we are

fuck american shopping campaign days, guess who just picked up a cheap pair of second hand Genelec 6010A :3

emacs users horrified to discover that "meta-x" now means two awful social media companies

so you rely on the array of inexpensive disks to keep your files intact, yet youre always calling it "redundant"? rude

turns out nix is easy after all (i have finally spent enough hours building up a small library of flakes to copy-paste for different kinds of projects)

there should be like a millennium prize for inventing a way to make music while listening to music

hands in the aiiirrr

im always ending up in situations like this

im celebrating blank friday. join me in staring into nothingness with absolutely no thoughts
