There is an idea floating around in my head of being able to describe rhythm patterns with just a few characters...and then branch them and control transitions between the branches, with some controller...arrows? Joystick?
A DJ mixer is different from most mixers, because it has a crossfader. It's the most important control on the mixer.The Disco Dingo graphic, does not have a crossfader.If you love this graphic like I do, please help me get what the artist needs to fix this: Canonical awareness.You're our only hope, Hacker News.https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/680683
I was trying to interject some humor into a dry process. When I asked a couple peers from my storage background, "how would you do this project" they both said the same thing: 1) form a working group 2) do a study 3) test 4) 90 days later, do an analysis. Epic process.
We care a lot, but that's beyond our scope. This was an all-hands reviewed process, and like machines that are built to be ultimately reliable including: hospital generators, human-rated spacecraft equipment, airplane engines for single-engine remote location flying (PT6), our process was detuned speed-wise specifically, for overall service reliability and minimal impact.
We tested, we analyzed, we saw weird failures (python core dump?) in simple code, and followed up on all of those before proceeding. We agonized.
In the end we were satisfied, because our customers couldn't tell anything changed, and our CSR's got zero new tickets. Not bragging at all, relieved of course, but, we care about the CSR's load and work experience too.
Thanks for checking the article out, and let me know if we can show you more about our service.
