You’re not hailing it as something it ain’t! All ire towards those who are 😝

And before someone says "you haven't tried it either", there are many, many, many, many, many precedents for vibe coded software just flat out not doing what it claims to do. I can, and will assume vibe coded software to be as janky as previous examples.

As I thought…checking out the github it is indeed 1. Made by Claude. 2. Doesn't even actually work (according to comments on Hacker News). Why are people making masturbatory proclamations of "the end of software/the end of copyright" when they haven't even tried the thing they're talking about?

Thanks for pinging, but this stinks of Claude so I'm not touching it with a bargepole

I had a 15 year break away from doing music, came back to it about 3 years ago and I was astounded that they had only recently (the last 2 years or so) updated Reaktor for ARM based Macs. Shocking. They've fallen so far from where they were. I won't ever spend money with them again.

Sit on the bench, then get someone to call you so you can tell them loudly about the weird person lying down near the bench, so that they can hear!

For my third typeface, I decided to create a condensed display typeface, called Over It. I designed three weights, bold, regular, and light.
Over It is on the page both right side up and upside down. Condensed Display Bold | Regular | LightOver It Bold - shows all the letters of the bold weight as well as numbers with yellow and purple type on a blue violet backgroundOver It Regular - shows all the letters of the bold weight as well as numbers with yellow and purple type on a red orange backgroundOver It Light - shows all the letters of the bold weight as well as numbers with red orange and purple type on a yellow orange background

@pkirn.bsky.social despite them knowing I’m an adult, they still don’t deem me an adult. It’s all bullshit (yes, even to this day they still don’t classify me as an adult despite already inferring I’m one)

Watching this Apple event tout how iPhones will soon be able to record ambient audio/conversations and transcribe "high level notes" for you. It's billed as private and end-to-end encrypted, but I think the bigger harm is the normalization of always-listening devices. It's creepy and not normal.

Personally, the only thing I like the Nik Collection for is Silver Efex Pro. However I do have to admit that I haven't touched it once since using the black & white film emulations in FilmPack 8 in conjunction with PhotoLab.

Three weeks until we welcome Liverpool writer and storyteller, Roy, to Emotion Wave - with myself providing a sonic backdrop. We also have Jez Thelwell, aaypea and B.A.G.S. playing live and hybrid DJ sets ✨

I had a long hiatus from tinkering with music stuff (about 15 years) and it's just incredible to see the number of indie developers that have quality that easily rivals "the big players" out there (in my opinion anyway). I am so very looking forward to the future of all those devs I mentioned!

Just wanted to say that I own quite a few of the MonoMono devices, and they're all top-tier. I rank MonoMono amongst the greats such as Fors, @plogue.com, @uheplugins.bsky.social, Synapse Audio…for attention to detail and incredible sound
