can confirm this team is really cool (and so is Cami!)

happy to chat with anyone who's curious about Socket :)

That's fascinating. I generally mix in-the-box, so my mixes are close to commercially-ready before mastering, but I've experimented with a few of the "one-click" mastering solutions and they just haven't been it for me (Ozone's presets, Landr, Distrokid.) I've currently been using Logic's transparent mode as a one-click master which has been slightly better, but this sounds really compelling. I generally just want 16-bit 48 KHz masters anyway, so no need for Atmos. I'll have to try this out. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, could you expand on this? What kind of effects can you get out of it? I’m somewhat skeptical that this could even come close to a proper mastering chain, so I’d be extremely interested to learn more :)

Got laid off mid-January from a smaller unicorn. 4+ YoE. I applied to ~80 places (mixture of cold applications and referrals), got to first rounds with maybe ~20, ended up with 5 offers (and pulled the plug on a few interviews due to fit or lack of interest.) 4 were startups of varying sizes, 1 was non-FAANG big tech, which I ended up taking for stability and WLB. Total time from getting laid off to signing the new offer was about 5 weeks.

Overall, I think things went ok for me because I have a fairly solid resume and a great network to lean on, and was able to do well in interviews. I also mostly applied to senior SRE and infra roles, which sounds like it’s harder to hire for than general SWE.

You mean Glyder, by Glu! My favorite game (well, it and its sequel, Glyder 2) on iOS by far.

Seriously, this. I run an enterprise grade Meraki deployment (router and access point) with all the 802.11ax bells and whistles. I have 8 HomePods/minis in a ~1000 sq ft space. They can reliably play music all synced up maybe… 20% of the time? It’d be really great if Apple just provided an AP that would drive them without issues.

This is awesome. How are you planning to update this? Any plans to allow user submissions/UGC?
