I've recorded all kinds of music in Ableton. The main thing you have to cope with is Ableton expects you to work with a constant tempo on a grid, although it doesn't force you to in any way. It's very easy to just record straight into it like any other multitrack DAW and turn off all the grids and quantization.

I'm still a fan of Logic Pro and will most likely buy the upgrade. My workflow gravitates towards Ableton for grid-based compositions (I do a lot of electronic music) and Logic for anything where I'm recording "real" instruments like guitar and vocals, because of Logic's great comping workflow.

I don't think they _should_, I just think they _will_. Really, what international megachain wants people doing "social experiments" with their customer-loyalty infrastructure?

It's not actually that there are more artists, it's that the Apple bazaar has attracted customers who are willing to pay money for the art.

He didn't raise a stink about Twitter trying to monetize, he raised a stink about them making a well-designed app ugly and less relevant to its users.

I would have preferred a list with more editorial input than "listed in the order received." As a math novice, I'd be much more interested to learn what Salman Khan's favorite math book is than Joe First-Post's.

My employer paid for a branding agency and wound up throwing away most of their names and settling on a name we came up with ourselves. They did give us one good name that I wound up using for a logging tool two years later, so it wasn't a total waste.

I'm of the opinion that if you don't have creative enough people on your team to come up with a good name you probably have bigger problems than the lack of a creative name.

If your product is killer I don't think it matters what your domain name is. People are going to get the word out.

Look at "blekko" for crying out loud.

My favorite sentence: "I manage to form relatively brilliant sentences compared to my peers."

I bet your peers absolutely love working with you.
