Fine-tuning debates often ignore that our universe might simply be adequately tuned, not optimally.

Minds biased toward self-preservation inflate their own importance and presume their existence is exceptional without justification.

Everyone can create their meaning and thus fill the universe.

Here’s probably the finally finished version, ready to share - Sound Index: a macOS desktop application that scans DAW projects (Ableton), extracts sample references, builds a searchable database, and enables Finder comments.

It should be sufficiently functional.

Nice. I’ll use it as a reference to clean up my sound library. I got frustrated when browsing through it without knowing which sounds were in use. I might have used a bit of sound and then forgotten about it. I’ll include Logic later. Central DB is handy.

Janne Särkelä @jannesarkela.bsky.social · Sep 10

I’m building a Python app for this.

It currently eats Ableton project files, finds them in folders, and maintains a database where sounds can be filtered and comments added for quick viewing in Finder.

I’ll share this later on GitHub.

Cumulonimbus glowing in the setting sun

A towering cumulonimbus cloud dominates the sky, brightly illuminated in gold and white by the setting sun. The cloud has a classic anvil shape with a broad, flat top spreading outward, while its lower portion remains darker and shadowed. Dense green trees and vegetation cover the foreground, with a few houses and utility poles partly visible among them. The sky above the cloud is a clear, deep blue, contrasting sharply with the warm glow of the storm cloud.

Morning shower

#photography

A morning rain shower falls over a dense forest. Countless raindrops are visible as bright streaks and speckles against the darker silhouette of tree canopies in the foreground. The background shows layers of misty foliage fading into the distance. The sky is mostly overcast with thick gray clouds, but a break in the clouds allows a patch of sunlight to filter through, creating a glowing area in the upper right. The overall atmosphere is moody, with strong contrast between the shimmering rain and the shadowy trees.

About an hour after sunset.

The moon, guarded by Scorpio, watching the newcomers on the beach.

#Photography

Nighttime beach scene illuminated by bright moonlight in a partly cloudy sky and artificial lighting. A glowing moon is framed by drifting clouds and faint stars above the ocean. In the foreground, a tall palm tree leans toward the shore on the left, while leafy branches extend from above and the right side of the frame. Small groups of people sit on the sandy beach: two seated on a blanket under the palm, and a few more near the water’s edge on the right. The ocean appears calm, with gentle waves reflecting the moonlight. The overall mood is serene and atmospheric.

'Nuit.' (1917) Within ten days of joining the Belgian army, Maurice Langaskens was captured by the Germans and interned as a prisoner of war. In captivity he produced hundreds of small-scale works on paper in inks and watercolour, recording everyday scenes around various camps.
