@ReimanSaara Joo, jep 🤣

Samoin olen havainnut, että lähes jokainen merkittävä poliittinen liike Suomessa tykkää puhua talouspolitiikastaan objektiivisena, lähes tieteellisenä. Onhan siinä tietty se perä, että kaikilla on käytössään samat VM:n tutkimusraportit yms. mutta on jopa aika tieteellisesti kestävää todeta, että ennennäkemätöntä tulevaisuutta koskevat päätökset ovat aina väistämättä arvauksia, joita tukevat aiemmat historiaan perustuvat kokemukset.

Esimerkiksi viime vuosina tekoäly on muokannut todellisuutta täysin ennalta ennustamattomalla, mutta raskaasti yhteiskuntaa muovaavalla tavalla, ja mikään vuosia vanha raportti ei ohjannut meitä valmistautumaan tähän rajuun muutokseen.

@ReimanSaara Jep, ja myös jonkunlaisia tieteellisiä meriittejä omaavia riittää Suomessa ja maailmalla, jotka ovat osanneet muuttaa auktoriteetin tuottoisaksi bisnekseksi. Esim. Suomessa on suorastaan perinteet kliinisen lääketieteen tutkinnon omaavista ihmisistä, jotka myyvät kaikenlaisia tohtorin erikoisrohtoja ja ravinto-oppeja :-)

often over-looked topic in #audio #plugins: relocation of data. many plugins gather dust in my collection because it takes too much effort to share the presets and other data (such as samples and wavetables). this is managed badly in the audio industry to the level that it is exception that there are convenient mechanisms to do this.

Ottamatta kantaa mihinkään yksittäiseen lehtiartikkeliin, niin kannattaa olla tarkkana asiantuntijoiden kanssa. Jos jonkun tieteenalan asiantuntija esittää näkemyksensä ajankohtaisesta aiheesta mediassa, niin se ei ole monesti kovinkaan poikkitieteellistä tulkintaa. Maailma on monimutkaisempi kuin minkään tieteenalan kapasiteetti tulkita sitä. Monesti tulevaisuus voi myös yllättää, ja monien tieteenalojen tutkimustieto on nimenomaan jo tapahtuneen yleistämistä, ja ennustavat mallit luodaan vain ja ainoastaan tämän pohjalta.

Jos tiedettä haluaa ymmärtää pahansuopaisesti, niin se aina on eräänlaista jälkiviisastelua, katsottiin sitten menneisyyteen tai tapahtumahorisonttiin. Toinen puoli tietysti on se, että joskus tällainen suppeasta perspektiivistä tehty tulkinta voi tietenkin olla myös täysin oikea, mutta sopivalla tasolla oleva kriittisyys on hyvä pitää mielessä.

@islieb cool, i could interpret this with my lousy german

Today, 15 years ago #OTD the person or group with the fictive name of “Satoshi Nakamoto” created the first cryptocurrency named Bitcoin with the thought of it becoming a secure and fast alternative to fiat currency.

Now it's known as the most wasteful use of electricity, inefficient and limiting capability/functionality, as well as being among the most insecure and de-anonymizing ways to transfer money.

However, what Satoshi Nakamoto probably hasn't expected is how many scam-currencies would come after theirs, and how their invention would create a new breed of the most annoying people known to our species: crypto-bros.

@protman one track that still continues to amaze till this day, albeit with impulse tracker is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ussu5r16Zow

@protman but you do have delay :-) delay is in the end just sample repeater with attenuating volume...

@itaru @LWN i use it to track stuff that i'm not subscribed in, LWN is perfect to give overall context

@jani also known as. "nikula's law" :-)

Palvelimen kuuluisi ilmoittaa, että "sähköposti lähetetään, jos se on tietokannassa", eikä raportoida lähtikö sähköpostia vai ei.

@ljs ok then definitely have all the right ingredients and i can feel your situation for sure :-)

@ljs right and: learn an "unplugged"" instrument. e.g. acoustic guitar is great. you don't have to be good at it but it helps the feel the music better and what works in melodies and harmonies and what. also if you've ever wonder why we have all these different scale the answer is the most simple and stupid: they feel good there is no underlying logic. Also 12 semitone scale is an arbitrary decision of which most keys are out-of-tune (but close enough to mathematical harmonics, it is essentially linear interpolation).

@ljs i'll check it out! remember the comforting thought that even bad music better than BORING :-) and i believe that it is important to release a lot of stuff in the beginning so that you over it and can move forward. even if a track turns out to be something you are "ashamed" of it is cure for removing self-deception :-) As we know from kernel development already self-evaluating changes is not often such a great idea :-)

My SoundClouds's are:

* https://soundcloud.com/triplaespresso
* https://soundcloud.com/dopeda

I also a few "real" releases in some compilations and I'm working on "long EP" Dopeda (40 mint total length of tracks) album for hippie killer productions: https://hippiekillerproductions.bandcamp.com/ probably will be out somet time this year. the latest more official track release was opening track for japanese label nullzone productions: https://nullzone2007.bandcamp.com/track/lumo-ava-2

but i do tons and tons of totally crap tracks where everything is wrong too :-) with soundcloud i put stuff that i don't consider finished sometimes or not that great. keeps pressure away from making music for me :-) i've performed in psytrance parties, also abroad, some travel away Tal Aviv, IL and Brho, Czech republic .

I played as a young kid cello for over a decade including performing in orchestra etc. and I got fed up to that shit Then about 2016 i just thought that ok cool I'm a kernel hacker, what else. So I that's why i'm making music to have something else :-) I would never consider to e.g. play chess or go in my free time, as that kind of analytics is already over-consumed by the work...

just do a track after another and do not stop doing that :-) the sound will improve eventually and despite how good or bad it is at the given time, it still unique :-)

@ljs @Ljsphotography i just stick to the principle you have to finish what you started iin professional life and not play opportunity strategy game :-)

however, now that i'm in fixed-term at the university which ends in the end of next September. and i need to get a job by then, i put applications to BItwig and Ableton for fun. nice discussion :-) thanks! i got inspired from this discussioni! good luck with the synth setup :-)

@ljs @Ljsphotography lol, remembered that there is one thing i'm a tiny bit bitter to intel related sgx :-) while i was doing sgx in 2017 i got job offer from ableton, and i said to them that hold on for a while i need to finish this sgx first. and that while lasted almost 4 years...

@Ljsphotography
thanks it is still just a theme but yeah for this linux bitwig and uhe plugins are definitely sufficient :-)

the reason i believe that dawproject file format has odds to succeed because it make commerrcially sense.It is not uncommon that a song is made with one daw, mixdown with another and mastering yet another. Right now only way to transfer project is to render all stems to audio, which often works but is not very versatile. Even if you render all stems it would be nicer that the same *project* would translate between DAW\s.

also i would not be surprised if there would be some day cloud services to render tracks, i mean it is just another payload/ there is enough business opportunities and money to be made like in tooling, services. it is a selling point for any audio engineer. also, right now only reaper has DAW-wide scripting. with dawproject you can do many e.g. mixing and mastering tasks by editing the project file directly with a script. through this route AI could really make it in the audio industry. consider e.g. cloud service where you could send a dawproject file and it would gain-stage it and send an update project back you.

also that would open a door a whole category of hardware projects. e.g. mpc's of today are almost like daw\s. it would be way more translatable if these advanced sampler workstations would produce and consume the same project format.
