...not a full-time musician, I guess I should say. 😜

Wait, if the arts are in-bounds, this question is super easy: 1000% working musician for me.

(...the reason I am in tech and NOT a musician is that my parents were working musicians, and "make a living doing it" is the crux of the problem.)

(also the article is like "Qobuz doesn't work with Siri and it's spotty on mobile, but that's minor", and my guy, the car with voice command is literally my entire use case for streaming music, so...)

Fwiw, as a musician on the extremely long tail: YouTube Music pays us about 3/4 of a penny per stream, which is more than Apple. Spotify decided last year unilaterally that it can pay us literally nothing per stream because we're below 1000 unique listeners per year. Fuck Spotify.

Zero barriers? 🤨 I think not!

Oddly enough I also did a porkloin this evening! (W/ locally harvested apples for maximum autumn.) One miscalculation was that all 3 of the dishes I made wanted different temps, and I didn't plan ahead to adjust cooking times I could use a single temp. One of the many things my spreadsheet prevents!

Adversarial Poetry is my indie normcore side project.

If you want the neural shading goodies, not to worry-- my colleague Andrew Allan will be diving into those, also Wednesday (14:30).

try.shader-slang.org might suffice if syntax is what you're after? It's Slang rather than HLSL, but Slang's syntax is HLSL-flavored.

It's one of the scenes I remember best from Huck Finn, because it seemed really counterintuitive to me as a skirt-wearer!

That tidbit is stolen from Huckleberry Finn, so as far as I'm aware it was written by Mark Twain, and you are therefore correct.
