You need 9 more minutes of thought process.

No, I need exactly 0 seconds to process empty buzzwords in the vein of "add Frobnozz to your TCP/IP, Frobnozz increases security bigly!".

There are zero buzzwords. I was just being vague because again, the cost of just flipping https on is negligible, it's literally more work to have this conversation and work out all of the details of exactly what attacks you're protected against.

It is never worth asking "should I even do https?" The only variation worth considering is "is https enough?" And even then, start with https and then build on top.

Anyone here doing rhythm work without sequencers? I've been noodling with a side project for a couple years trying to figure out how to replicate folk drumming patterns by adding LFOs together and doing beats at the zero crossing. My aim is to create drumming patterns that can flow and evolve. Results are so-so. I cant seem to find much info on other doing this sort of thing. https://youtu.be/yVlgPoTpL94

I'd think that the problem with LFOs is that they don't make it easy to think about rhythm- they are tied to specific times. So it's a hard tool for that kind of work.

I've been enjoying tools like "euclidian rhythms" where you have a variety of sounds that all have a fundamental division of beat that they share but have differing numbers of beats-per-bar. I have a squarp pyramid sequencer that implements that quite well.

You might look in that direction if you haven't already.

Is order CH, OH, CY, CB, MA, CL, HC, MC, LC, SD, BD, AC fine or need any other adjustments? There will be support for triples, soooon.

Some other ideas: - 2 bar patterns would also be great. Many patterns repeat over 8 quarters. - Allowing accents (dynamics). A lot of drum patterns involve just a few drums, where accents are what bring the pattern to life. With accents and triplets, you can have the Purdie shuffle [1], which is one of my favorite patterns ever :) :[1] https://tomtommag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Purdie-Shuf...

Could you provide some kind of mockups of different bar patterns you would like to see implemented?

Unauthenticated http is a vector for opportunistic malware. They don’t target specific websites, just inject evil.js wherever.

You ISP sniffing and MiTMing traffic on the wire is the least likely vector of malware injection. ISP's are usually serious businesses with reputations and don't hack their own customers.

Maybe if they live in a high income country with relatively strong consumer protections and are using their home ISP. But quite a lot of the internet is very much not that.

In some places and on some networks, MiTMing http traffic for undesirable use-cases is routine.

That “usually” is doing a ton of work. I remember Vodafone injecting scripts into webpages many years ago. While trying to find a source, I bumped into other shenanigans. https://www.simpleanalytics.com/blog/vodafone-deutsche-telek...

Out of all the bad actors on the Internet, your ISP is the least bad.

That link I sent is an example of standard notation I used when playing set. For accents, something like bigger or smaller circles could work fine.

Purdie shuffle would look like:

       1  2  3  4 
   hh |x-xx-xx-xx-x|
   S  |-o--o-Oo--o-|
   B  |o----o-----o|
Or something like a basic jazz shuffle:

       1  2  3  4 
   hh |x--x-xx--x-x|
   S  |---o-----o--|
   B  |o--o--o--o--|

i love this! i wish i could use both MA and CP at the same time though for a particular beat im making here http://drumpatterns.onether.com/beat-2/

i cant wait for more samples to be added and triplets, had fun doing this on my lunch :) im not really a musician but i live with 2 producers so playing with them rubs off on me
