    CCSF alum here (AA, completed over 20 CS courses). I attended a similar CCSF job fair in 2017 and there were only 2-3 companies involved even then. If I recall, it was Lawrence Liv…

    It was the first online cohort of DC so I didn't realize how intensely difficult it'd be. I'd taken GIOS with Ada which was gentle, so I figured DC wouldn't be significantly harder…

    Reminds me of Boyd Rice's rotoguitar (a fan attached to a guitar) and the extratone genre (extreme techno kick drums that run so fast they turn into pitched tones).

    I recently read Aira's Fulgentius and found it to be an engaging, tongue-in-cheek meditation (for lack of a better term) on art, history, conquest and nature. I consider Varamo (co…

    I might be missing something obvious, but it's not clear to me how to get an mp3 out of this on Ubuntu 22.04. Following the docs, `./tsac c myfile.mp3 myfile.tsac` generates a tsac…
