Hello, I am the author of Sound as Pure Form and SuperCollider. I also have a YouTube channel for my video synthesis experiments (over 2600 videos): https://www.youtube.com/@VideoS…

It doesn't appear in the Readme because I wrote the Readme in 2011 before Sporth existed.

"If you’ve had these symptoms of constipation or sitting on the toilet for a long time for more than three weeks, Monzur said it might be time to bring your concerns to your doctor…

How do they know that the butterflies weren't aboard a ship?

Here's a 352 sq ft house with a 4400 sq ft lot that sold for $1.7M on April 2. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/420-Franklin-St-Mountain-...

Smalltalk uses periods. One thing I like about C is that I can write .1 or 1. , but most languages these days force me to add the zero: 0.1 or 1.0 .

I find it ironic that you can't reverse a mistake on a site dedicated to a software that is all about reversing mistakes.

Reminds me of the KeyKit algorithmic MIDI composition language (first version, 1985): https://nosuchtim.com/tjt/particles/talks/keykit.pdf

The legitimacy of a car title is backed by a government agency. What legal entity backs an NFT? To what authority do you go to enforce your ownership of a JPEG if there is a disput…

3 pop ups and I’m out. I immediately bailed.

Why do you start every reply with "Hey"? This thread reads like astroturf promotion.
