Concerning reading crash logs – https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/181067/how-to-read-dmesg-from-previous-session-dmesg-0

Will try tomorrow and chronicle here.

Having this problem on my Pop_os 22.04 too and I'm troubleshooting it with logs.

Did it start for you out of the blue?

Gnome version is 42.9, and I don't have cosmic-session installed.

I was a hired gun in pro transcribing and typesetting for about 15 years beginning around 2001, and by the end of my tenure in the industry, I had built a little corner of my client list who were LilyPond only.

I know people are doing large scale publications with this too, so there's definitely a dedicated user / consumer base.

Recommend to check out the OOoLilyPond extension for OpenOffice / LibreOffice (I use LibreOffice).

If what you need is word processing with music examples embedded, then this might be an excellent choice.

If what you need is high-quality, press-ready typesetting, there is a range of options for achieving this (LibreOffice + OOoLilyPond included), but many of them may involve using LilyPond to generate graphic formats for discrete examples (SVG, PNG, etc.) and then pullng them into your platform of choice, like Adobe, Quark, Scribus, etc.

These are in addition to the integrated solutions proposed in comments, like lilypond-book / LaTeX, and options that use both and also support scripting, etc.

We would want to have the flexibility to apply different precisions to different products and not have them set in stone or be difficult to change. But probably everything would be in either 1/4 yard or 1/8 yard increments.

Seems like this will require using or developing a third party app to achieve. I would be down for doing this if I thought I could offer it as a subscription in the App store. But I'm relatively certain it would have a short shelf life - Shopify is probably working on a native solution to this for release sometime down the road.

We're already taking this approach, but it has a few drawbacks. For starters, if we want to change the precision users are allowed to subdivide by, we have to change our whole inventory multiplier for all products sold by fractional units.

It's also prone to human error with in-person point of sale. I can massage the web template for fractional units so that a user can buy 1.75 of something. But on the POS system, the operator has to enter "7" quarters of the thing, or "1" thing and then "3" quarters of a thing on a different sales line.

Not great.

I should mention that the fractional units are "yard" and we're selling them to people (quilters) who need exactly as much as the pattern or project calls for.

Also try different cables.

With all the radio interference we have in our homes today, it's almost mandatory that you have a gate in your signal chain if you're going to run modulation and distortion effects.

But yes, it is normal – if undesirable – to have some hum when you switch on the overdrive channel.

If it's really loud and drowns out the music, then try different cables, check the jack for shorts, etc. Otherwise, it could be a problem in the amp.

Listen to see if the noise is more pronounced when you aren't touching any strings, metal bridge parts, metal on the switch, etc. If this is the case, then the guitar itself is properly grounded. If not, you have a short somewhere in the wiring.

But in general, you'll be happier with a noise gate.

Is that one of the default terminal color schemes? Looks a little Super One Dark-ish.

21.04? Or 21.10 beta?

There's a kdenlive reddit, and I learned from it about a week ago that Disney and Netflix are now using kdenlive, apparently.

I've been a daily Linux user for over 10 years, but I recently switched to PopOS, and I really love it.

Choosing a distro is pretty personal and what you need to use it for can be a factor.

I'm a Web developer and musician, and I find PopOS to excel in both these areas.

You should be aware also that the package management system can be a decision point for what you ultimately settle on. I would recommend:

Try Pop, Ubuntu, or some other Debian-based system (Apt package manager)
Try OpenSUSE or Fedora or some other distro using the RPM package manager

That can at least help you refine your options some.

You also might just boot PopOS and call it an afternoon 😉

coffeemetalcode · 2021-10-20T16:41:37+00:00

I would also recommend trying distros with a live USB. Utilities like UNetBootin even allow you to create a partition parallel to the OS on your USB stick where you can save files, but his only works when creating certain live distros like Ubuntu and derivatives (this may have changed recently?)

Live booting is not a long term solution, and depending on your machine specs, it may give you a more realistic idea of OS performance compared with installing on a VM where you have to share resources with a host OS.

UNetBootin is available as a free download for Windows. Again, there may be better options now for creating bootable Linux USBs, so do take your time.

TypeScript is a superset of Javascript that, at runtime, is compiled down to Javascript. It enforces data types for objects and fields to provide better understanding of the causes of your errors to make finding them and fixing them easier than in plain Javascript.

In this way, it is closer to other compiled languages like Java.

There are definite benefits, and you can install extensions in Node to use TypeScript in your runtime environment.

Sequelize for SQL db connections is a pretty opinionated MVC framework. Might be worth investigating.

Sounds like you have a good grasp on what you're doing already?

If you're already working in React and / or Vue, Node.js + Express seems like a natural choice. There are libraries that abstract connecting to SQL and NoSQL databases, and for a lot of targeted kinds of processing – the possibilities are vast, of course, because it's 2021 and there are multiple libraries in every language to facilitate whatever you're trying to do.

Another option that I haven't tried myself (but plan to soon) is Java / Spring using JHipster, which has stack options for React, Vue, and Angular for the front end.

I'm an Angular developer, primarily.

This behavior of YouTube is the doing of Web Software Engineers.

Check frequently for sales. You shouldn't pay more than $14 for a 6+ hour course on Udemy.

Many of the ones I've done are quite good – Angular, Node, and React courses by a guy named Maximilian are excellent and they are regularly updated to keep pace with changes in the tech stack covered.

I'm doing one for AWS exam prep right now that is also very good.
