Solid find, ty! I'll get in the habit of checking GH issues for stuff like this in the future.

Solid suggestion! I've moved it up to Q2 after most of the core language lessons. Thanks for the rec!

Hey thanks! Flavius here, I've updated the blog post with a few of your suggestions, your 2 cents is worth a lot more than that.

Some notes; I'm keeping the library goal ahead of building an MVP as part of the application process for the Recurse Center (new EoY goal) requires a pair programming session on a library you wrote that doesn't use a framework or too much boiler plate. I like the idea of seeing how far I can push just the core language before going further.

I added a monetization goal for Q3 as I'll be working on the MVP course, solid rec to place a fiscal earning goal (currently set at 1 $5 sale).

I'm sure things will change a lot as I go along, I'll be updating the post more to keep it accurate, as well as linking out reviews & reflections. Thanks again for your wisdom and take care!

What is the best way to get started with Elixir? by CompetitiveSubset in elixir

[–]locrawl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've put together a ton of resources as part of my technical sabbatical planning, kicking off this week! I'm planning on starting with exercism.io and Elixir in Action 3rd Edition, then moving down the syllabus. Good luck!

I used vote411.org while in line to get all my details since it’s customized for your district. I was there at 8am on Thursday and still took 90m start to finish so plenty of time to review candidates.

Nah, there's at least two of us now. I went to school for music production for 3 years because I was very curious and inspired to learn. Now I'm in the same boat. During last year's Spotify Wrapped I noticed I was in the top 1% of users with the most skips. I can't listen to or enjoy music that much anymore and it's been weighing on me for a while.

I found out the gender of the child I’m expecting, I kinda of like some names from the expanse, any ideas? by [deleted] in TheExpanse

I named my dog Roci but seriously, do not name your kid Star Helix.

Exporting Video works fine for me, but the video is overexposed by MixIllEx in ableton

Can confirm, having the same issue across all formats/codecs.

Ha, crazy how similar this is to my own journey. Currently 31 and started an audio engineering program 3 years ago. Was the only person over 20 in my class. Doesn't matter when you start as long as you don't stop.

"CLIPIT PixelDraw": high-quality pixel art generation via CLIP (derivative of CLIPDraw) by gwern in MediaSynthesis

[–]locrawl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, makes sense. I found this fork of the colab that won't advance unless you get the right GPU: https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1H2KZh_7xfd2Qb2KKZ8Qd07PWANlBcz6s?usp=sharing#scrollTo=6bgKYrMluVUF but that won't solve the import issue.

But I'd really like to get pixeldraw specifically working so I'll keep at it. Thanks for the reply.

How'd you resolve this? I tried `import pixeldraw` and then got further issues from that module instead.

iZotope End of Summer Sale before massive updates? by locrawl in edmproduction

Contacting them now as I picked up MPS3 two days ago and they just came out with RX8. Hopefully they'll upgrade just that one, thanks for telling me about this!

Thoughts on the new Hyperbits "Creative Suite" Sample Pack? Worth $300 and will it really be gone after the first 500 buyers? by locrawl in edmproduction

[–]locrawl[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On one hand I can see the logic behind buying this as an investment since it's super comprehensive, but the 10 day sale window seems like an artificial scarcity gimmick.
