Re:Ableton Extensions SDK
on Wednesday June 03, 2026 @05:57PM (#48390702)
This is great to see. Not widely known, but it's already been possible to write Python extensions for Ableton using the LOM, which I was doing via ClyphXPro. But this looks easier!

Whether or not positive and negative sterotypes are used are kind of besides the point, its the fact that a stereotype was used at all. Let me give an example, if you say im a jew so I have money, os that negative or positive? Even if you think its positive, the fact that the stereotype is validated implies that other stereotypes are true.
Now this particular joke is pretty tame, certainly. If he wanted to he could have add the qualifier " more talking, bringing more perspectives to the table" or something. But the way he said it could have been interpreted as a stereotype, and therefore is problematic

Re:Code boilerplate: Is it always bad?
on Saturday June 10, 2017 @01:02AM (#14526234)
I assumed the title was about boilerplate in terms of some skeleton or framework you download. Turns out this is different from what youre talking about (verbosity). Its interesting that even in programming jargon we have two uses for the same term. They are not totally separate though. The repetitive, DRY violations eventually get abstracted into a framework, at which point the boilerplate becomes ok. And if its still too verbose, than another boiler may arose to encompass it.

Re:Study indicates mushrooms may be the safest recreational drug
on Thursday May 25, 2017 @12:52AM (#14415357)
Being obvious here, but what about pot? Have personally done mushrooms 5 or so times. and while it can be pretty casual with a small dose, it easily gets into the realm of somewhat-spiritual meta-thinking (after a few of these experiences I didnt much desire them anymore) . Similar to LSD in this regard, and probably not the best thing to mix with alcohol.
