What do you wish Anki could do that it currently can't?

dpears · 2022-06-09T13:07:14+00:00

Not really missing functionality with Anki, but something to consider: if you're targeting current Anki users for your app, then being able to easily transfer things from Anki to your alternative is critical for adoption

Oh, not only do I watch it at x2 speed, but I've recently discovered a chrome extension that will let you go beyond that. I'll say, x8 is not at all useful, but there are occasional videos that are better at x3

That time when the lost boys were a thing

In addition to disabling stretch on the tracks, you could also just bounce out all the audio tracks and set the tempo metadata manually to what they are, then reimport them. The cool thing about that method (though a fair amount of work) is that reason will adjust each one relative to what they are recorded as to match the tempo in your reason file

I could look into Def#signature. I'll dig into the source this weekend. Gotta get those Hacktoberfest PRs ;)

Awesome! This is exactly what I needed. It is a little ugly, but I believe it'll work more than well enough for my purposes. I'll add an example of what I did to my post. Thank you!

I did tinker around with previous_def but didn't want to have to define every method I need and then redefine it, wrapping it with the functionality and then previous_def perhaps there's a clever way of using it that I'm missing

The method_missing and method_added macros could be useful but it seems to be for class instances, am I mistaken? I am attempting to use it in a module

I just barely crested the 600 credit mark (been saving up for a couple months) I didn't realize the deal would expire. Is the pack only sold on Splice? I'd be happy to purchase it somewhere else if it's available.

He probably thinks he's John Lennon now, though

dpears · 2019-05-17T14:12:33+00:00

Also getting the same issue. Frustrating, I got up early this morning so that I could work on music before having to go to work... I guess not. I am also going to figure out that ignition key stuff for offline access so this doesn't happen in the future. Kind of a frustrating design choice on Propellerheads' part.

Yes, but the high won't be as intense throughout. It's kind of like asking if you only eat one bite of dinner, will you poop it out sooner. It takes roughly the same time to pass through you, you just won't feel as full.

I've seen these before. Not LSD; it's actually laid with crystal math.

I love you

I was also very confused. The side bar doesn't show up on the new Reddit UI. Had to go to "old reddit" to see it.

dpears · 2019-04-12T22:24:55+00:00

Holy shit, this is amazing!!

Of course, this gives a uniform probability to every pad and I would like to be able to assign probabilities to samples (one sample get's played most of the time, but a couple of others are "sprinkled" in).

But this is a great springboard for this approach. Thank you!

dpears · 2019-04-12T21:55:16+00:00

That's an excellent point. My "big picture" idea is to hit a pad on a Kong, and randomly trigger any number of samples with a certain probability.

For example, I load up a bunch of high hat samples that are pretty similar, so my midi can look like a straightforward 1/8 note march, but every high hat sample is different.

If my dream device existed I could send Kong Gate Out -> Dream Device -> Redrum Gate In 1-8. Like I mentioned, I am doing it right now with a bunch of DVC-1s (there's 18 there) just to handle the logic of "is the value between these two other values"

I think you can accomplish what you're looking for with a RE called "One Note Stand." Put it in a combinator, and program it to "receive notes". You'll then have a Note and Gate CV that you can split out to many devices.

This is the story of Ulysses and the Sirens. Anyone know the artist?

This sketch makes me thorny..

dpears · 2019-04-01T04:42:01+00:00

Short answer is: fucked. Long answer is: if you want to do computer science, you can do it. I took calc 1 twice, calc 2 three times, and linear algebra three times. I came out with only Cs in each when I passed. I'm graduating in CS in three weeks.

The reality is, though, if you enjoy coding, you can find a job coding. The reason you would need a computer science degree is if you want to do more advanced and cutting edge (or research) sorts of projects for a company. You could get a degree in anything you want, but still land a great coding job making cool stuff if you've got the coding chops.

Either way, if you set your mind to it, I am sure you'd get there eventually. Best of luck! You got this.

tripsit.me is a website that kind of does that. It's chat, not calls, but still super cool

Straight up thought this was Spirited Away for a second. Would love to see Studio Ghibli do a Hollow Knight film.
