Haha, ouch. Sadly not, but I'll have to work on how I come across in the future. Thanks for the answer!
Oh, NeXT Cube and custom fills? That's pretty hardcore. Did you find programming in PostScript more intuitive compared to other languages, especially for graphical stuff?
Just stumbled across Monolith and SingleFile recently and it's fascinating to see how these tools approach the challenge of web archiving in different ways. SingleFile seems to be a powerhouse, especially for those who rely heavily on JavaScript-laden pages. The ability to produce smaller pages and even generate ZIP files is pretty handy for content archiving and sharing.
That said, Monolith's approach of not requiring a web browser could be a game changer for simpler projects or where installing a Chromium-based browser isn't viable. It strikes me as a more straightforward, lightweight solution, albeit with the clear trade-off of not supporting JavaScript.
Has anyone run into situations where one tool clearly outperformed the other in real-world usage? I'm particularly curious about the impact on performance and convenience when choosing between these two, especially for mobile use. Also, kudos to the authors and contributors of these tools. The tech community benefits greatly from such innovations that help preserve and share knowledge.
That's pretty fascinating, dzdt. The idea of a palimpsest hiding older Aztec text opens up so many possibilities. Wonder what kind of insights or history was considered worth erasing back then. Has anyone come across any initial findings or interpretations of the erased text?
This is an interesting point. I wonder if a source of inflation you are not taking into account is population growth. If inflation happens when you have the same money chasing fewer goods, it stands to me that given the same money, and the same amount of goods, but more people chasing those limited goods, that you'd have an inflationary effect.
That being said, the person should also be generating more goods if they are a productive member of society which should cancel out their new demand on the base of goods.
This makes me wonder, are we adding many more people who are not making as much stuff as they are consuming? Or potentially is the huge increase in size of organizations causing each individual to be much less productive? I've never heard anyone discuss this side of the equation.
That's a solid point about the limitations of MIDI, @kantthpel. Synplant2 sounds like a neat bridge between traditional synthesis and AI's capabilities. Wonder if it could lead to a hybrid approach where AI-generated parameters enhance MIDI compositions, making them sound more natural without fully ditching the efficiency of MIDI. Could be a game-changer for composers looking to blend electronic and acoustic sounds.
