Rec Room was a great place to work, but they had to lay off over half their staff, so I am looking for the next opportunity.
If you are looking for a senior graphics coder to solve all your rendering problems on any platform, either remote or in the Seattle area, I'd love to hear from you.
Picture is purely for attention, but I can drive pretty well.

Security guarantees for Ukraine cannot be provided by foreign military contingents and much work needs to be done before a high or top-level meeting between Moscow and Kyiv on settling the conflict in Ukraine, the Kremlin said on Friday.

In Japan ist es ziemlich verpönt Lebensmittel wegzuwerfen. Und so hat sich auch in TV Übertragungen in denen Essen gezeigt wird etabliert, dass selbiges natürlich auf keinen Fall im Müll landet. Im Gegenteil, die Produktions-Crew muss herhalten. 04.ZWENTNER.com

Strudel REPL
Strudel is a music live coding environment for the browser, porting the TidalCycles pattern language to JavaScript.strudel.cc
Another global setting in #strudel would be using all. For example, you can slap a lowpass #filter on everything like this:
$: s("bd hh bd hh sd hh hh bd hh bd hh bd <sd [sd, cp]> hh hh hh")
all(x=>x.
when("<0!7 8>", x=>x.
lpf(saw.range(200, 2000)).lpq(8)
)
)
If you add more patterns to this demo drum pattern, they will be filtered as well.
yes, the colors i like as well.. i'm strudeling on a tutorial for "global all" atm, bc i was reading the post by @superdirtspatz
and figured it could help me understand the magic better, and found.. "_$:" has no effect @ "all" !
"all" is like "_$", awesome, but they dont work together. on the other hand, all + $ make output go magic

Where does the UK stand in the world?
Well, one answer is to look at how the DG of the WTO, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala sees the UK....
She places the UK as an important 'middle power' along with Singapore, Switzerland, Uruguay, Australia, the UAE & New Zealand, all of whom she sees as important to the future of the World Trade Organisation in a political environment patterned by US hostility to multilateralism.
Accepting that designation may be key to the UK's diplomatic future?

If we'd accepted our reduced standing back in 1945, things would've been a lot better. So many things would be better. No Suez nonsense, no crashing out of the ERM, no brexit, quite possibly no involvement in the invasion of Iraq either.
People alive at the time could've all simply accepted that we'd had a good run and it was time to slip back into the quiet diplomatic middle classes.
Completely agree & used to say so to my students when I was teaching International Relations introductory courses

To all who assert that the fighting will end if Hamas surrenders, that's probably true(ish). Israel will complete its genocide more quickly. Peace will reign. The peace of death.

Republicans are secretly deleting all references to themselves and their pals in Epstein's files. ALL of them know it. Even Susie Collins.
They're going release the "information" and use it as an excuse to purge Democrats from the House and Senate, arrest other Democrats, after they've inserted Democratic names in place of their own.
Aren't they.

Positivity tells a sad person there is no reason to be sad. Warmth asks the sad person if they want to get some ice cream."

One Beat (2002) by Sleater-Kinney on CD.
Another powerhouse release where they double down on riot grrrl punk, but slip in just a hint of blues. Every riff and drum hit feels locked in—tight, fierce, and deliberate.
My only gripe is the mastering. The CD pushes so hard that it loses some breathing room, which makes it fatiguing after a while. A record this good deserves more dynamic range.

Viene spento l’ultimo IBM 7030 “STRETCH”, supercomputer IBM nato nel 1955 per essere 100-200 volte più veloce dei concorrenti. Primo con transistor, dischi veloci (32 MB), memoria rapida (2 MB) e innovazioni come pipelining, lookahead, multitasking e autocorrezione. Ne furono costruiti solo 8, usati da enti governativi; la NSA ebbe la versione “Harvest” per il codebreaking.

in reply to The Secret Life Of Plants🌱 • • •Das Bild zeigt eine satirische Illustration, in der ein Mann in einem Anzug und mit einem überdimensionalen Kopf die Erde in einen gelben Chipper steckt. Der Chipper, mit der Aufschrift "CHIPPER" versehen, spuckt Geldscheine aus. Der Mann hat ein breites Grinsen und wirkt zufrieden. Die Erde ist in der Chipper-Maschine zerdrückt, und Geldscheine fliegen aus dem Auspuff. Der Hintergrund ist in einem hellen Grün gehalten, mit einem gelben Kreis, der den Chipper und den Mann hervorhebt. Die Illustration kritisiert die Ausbeutung der Erde und die Priorisierung von Geld über Umwelt und Nachhaltigkeit.
