    I really enjoy and appreciate how @yaxu does work in both textiles and live coding. I appreciate the abstractions he explores and I think it directly benefits the Tidal/Strudel pro…

    Making a copy in RAM, cache etc does not involve distributing it to other people.

    I don’t disagree with the ruling. IA is not lending their copy that they purchased. They are lending a copy of their copy. While that copy is lent out, they are still free to, I.e.…

    One of the main reasons I choose to shop at Aldi is that when I am in the store, I feel like the customer vs. feeling like the product at Kroger. Shopping at Kroger (or Walmart, et…

    As a die hard Emacser, I’ve always been drawn to the idea of plain text productivity. What keeps me using apps like Todoist and Calendar.app is I am unaware of a way to have locati…
