    Really cool. I can see some issues, like Starr King park turned into a lake for some reason, but it’s so much fun to look at. Do you have any way to patch errors and discontinuitie…

    I agree. The limitations forced composers to be economical and creative. As for modern OSTs, I like VA-11Hall-A. Never played it though

    I used 98.css as starting point for the Winamp theme in https://chiptune.app . It was very easy to modify and extend, thanks!

    This would be really cool for putting musical samples back-to-back. Like 50 versions of Paganini's Caprice No. 24 in 2 minutes. I did a double take on the domain name, it's very si…

    It’s pretty. Lots of people have anxiety around the big question. A tool like this can really help.

    Have you thought about building it as a plugin, e.g. for Jetbrains?

    Wow, that’s neat. Perfect for a hyperlight drifter style game.

    I am working on https://chiptune.app . Most recently, adding SID support, and adding timing information to the emulated formats that don’t have any tagged song duration (e.g., conv…

    I think this is basically correct and aligns with Facebook’s massive push toward e2ee in Messenger. They don’t want to be on the hook, and didn’t do e2ee just for the fun of it

    You’ll have to ask quiz takers for their SAT/ACT scores to estimate the (probably extreme) sample bias

    It sounds like "know-your-customer" is not the problem, but rather the quaint assumption of a permanent mailing address is the problem. Isn't some manner of KYC an essential part o…
