POV: Macie #ADHD i naprawdę spore problemy z przetwarzaniem tego, co słyszycie, a typ z którym rozmawiacie przez telefon się bardzo spieszy. Najważniejszym elementem rozmowy ze spieszącym się typem jest zdobycie adresu. Adres jest w miejscowości Mąchocice-Scholasteria.

Koniec żartu.

***badum-tsssssss***

(tak, typ powtórzył pięć razy, ja musiałam zapisać)

I haven't powered up the Development VM since November. Kinda scared to since VSCode will most likely update, and every time it does, it breaks settings that I have to then track down and edit! Oy! But also really would like to get back to working on my Apps. Gotta switch Soundkeys over to...something other than WX because the Accessibility issues are driving me bonkers and UIA doesn't seem to be working much better. I do like Python a lot, though.

This is honestly super cool. I wonder if Ableton works with NI stuff, Native Instruments.

I should really go to bed but first have this thing I spent the last few hours making in Ableton. It's a remix of "Be Like You" by Taylor Acorn and it's probably one of my favorite songs of the last few years. Here's the original: youtu.be/Cys2K0rx2T0

Today is a company holiday in the US I think, but I sat in on an AI best practices meeting anyhow, since I still know next to nothing about AI, and upper management cares about it.
Someone made a comment that AI will change the nature of technical/development positions.
So I wonder, will it? I presume it will, in some way, since most change has consequences, but I feel like it's too early to say how or to what extent?
It's fascinating how much change there is right now, both in terms of technology created by humans and the ecology of the planet due to humans.
I think about the Mesozoic Era and how long it lasted and how there must have been long states of stasis, with each generation of any given life form essentially playing the same role as the last.
But maybe long periods of stasis followed by relatively rapid bursts of change constitute the norm (the meteor that ended the Mesozoic initiating the latter, for instance).
So I wonder if/when we will enter another period of relative calm and what it will look like, but it feels impossible to say.
I presume that life 20 years from now will be similar to life in 2025 but different in some ways, and life in 2065 will be similar to 2045 but different in some ways, and so on, but, if I were to fall asleep and wake up 1,000 years from now, then the world would be utterly unrecognizable to me.

From the 17 January edition of The Week:
"The US Consumer Product Safety Commission keeps a database of the various items that people in America have got stuck in their rectums. The most recent
data shows that about 4,000 people (average age: 43) seek hospital treatment for such mishaps per year. Among the items recorded were beard clippers, a sandal, uncooked pasta, a dog chew toy, an egg, a turkey baster, a pair of glasses and a shampoo bottle."

The mind is not the only thing that boggles 😂

Also, people can now play around with a new setting: legacyPitchInflectionScale (default 0.58) - if you feel like it's overly inflected, lowering it while having the LegacyPitchMode set to true will improve things. I realized what made him sound like his balls were squeezed. The default inflection on the 2016 era driver used inflection 35, but we now us inflection 60 at default. So that scale setting will help. Or you can lower the inflection itself in your setting to the desired effect. The formula we do: effectiveInflection = inflection * legacyPitchInflectionScale
