I certainly don’t agree with this as a musician who has tried most of these attempts by electronic music manufacturers.

The idea is that there’s practices that are good for society that fall outside of market value, and these practices should be protected or they die. Some things cannot survive in the market.

Insane brutality has happened on both sides. However the statistical numbers are different, before oct 7 and after, one side has been much more successful in its brutalization of the other.

You should look into the accounts of doctors who are not allowed to take in baby food. Israeli mobs destroying aid trucks. Israeli soldiers gloating about killing children.

While Hamas has done atrocities, this does not allow atrocities to be committed in response. Especially by an occupying power that controls every variable in the environment.

Israel’s civilian casualty rate is higher than germany, japan, or the Soviet Union during ww2.

My experience as a musician and huge linux nerd is: sure, it was all free, and very powerful, on linux, but I never actually made music because of the setup times, learning, hacking, and refining the systems.

Since getting a mac and paying for tools like this, the immediacy of being productive has caused me to actually make music.

it's the same with OBS - wow, what a piece of software. I spent a week going through and configuring it. They really thought of everything. Audio Hijack solved my problem in 30 seconds and made sense for my use case while doing it.

On the drums: Not entirely, I find folk tradition choral music (without drums) wonderful, but also struggle with classical and church choral.

Among other things, but even with a “latest change wins” method you still have to make sure all transactions arrive, data doesn’t stay out of synch forever, and other challenges.

ElectricSql, instantdb, rxdb, jazz.tools, are some of the things I’ve been looking into to make these tasks easier.

There’s a whole world of syncing databases when they’re offline and then reconnect. Local first. If your websocket connection is offline you have to store the incremental changes to your data and send them later on reconnect. This gets complex fast.

A lot of these tools (and what the author wrote) offer toolkits to do this well, not having to implement and track all these changes in state manually.

In this case the author is running SQLite in the browser, and that syncs to SQLite on the server.

I love the Dokploy promise but I’ve come across some glaring bugs and inconsistencies that have made living with it difficult. I’ve had to consult its source code because if it’s lack of documentation in a few instances.

Support, even for paying customers, is lacking, too.

Definitely cheering its development on, though, because the promise is wonderful.

Not make it political… you’re joking right?
