@git_fork Thank you for a super useful tool with a nice clean interface.
My one request: Please allow "Hide untracked files" to be on by default. I used this to only view relevant files, and be able to quickly check changes to add or remove from a commit.

@audioprogrammer @cspetts_ It's one of those religious debates... I've generally been a camelCase guy but recently been working on a Rust project which has a standard snake_case code format, and got quite used to it.
Consistency is the important thing! (hard to achieve when mixing std + camelCase)

Looking at options for making a website. From visual hand-holding solutions (Wix, Webflow) down to actually build a website with some modern tools, e.g. GatsbyJS, TailWindCSS. Any recommendations?
(I used to be a web dev and have some React Native and Node.js experience)

[Node Audio @nodeaudio]

Anyone need a microtonal tuner as an AUv3 plugin? ;-)

[Node Audio @nodeaudio]

Major update to our iOS microtonal tuning app now available! It's also been renamed :)

New features:
- Redesigned UI
- Accurate cent meter
- Support for non-octave scales
- Support for landscape orientation

@timur_audio Depends if I'm speaking London (sans 't') or Queens English(with 't')

[Adam Wilson @AdamCodeGarden]

Just submitted a major update of my iOS microtonal tuning app for review. 14 beta testers, only one response which was positive... IME testers generally only respond when stuff is broken. So, here goes...

[Adam Wilson @AdamCodeGarden]

@dvassallo IME all of these take time, and time is finite. As a programmer I'm at my best when I focus on at most two projects at a time. Otherwise I'm spreading myself too thin and losing threads. And as mentioned already all of these require marketing to bring in money.

@Chris_Randall I bought an MPC Live in 2018, partly for live stuff. It was dissapointing. Hardware was great, software was unfinished. A far cry from the S series and original MPCs in terms of flexibility. Curious about the One..

[Adam Wilson @AdamCodeGarden]

@timur_audio @jonhoo @cigmalang @rustlang I'm using Rust for a networking and data processing library. It's been a fascinating and infuriating process, but ultimately happy with the decision - Rust fits the use-case of the library very well. However for full-blown applications and audio plugins, it has a way to go..

[Adam Wilson @AdamCodeGarden]

@timur_audio Also considering getting a powerful PC setup again, both for dev and music production. Been a Mac user since 2008.

@jameskroner @JUCElibrary @kotlin Kotlin is also one of the most productive statically typed languages I've worked with. I've enjoyed working with it. It has some really nice functional style features without making the code difficult to understand

[Adam Wilson @AdamCodeGarden]

I recently released a microtonal tuning app for Android. For those interested, it was built using @JUCElibrary and @kotlin.

[Node Audio @nodeaudio]

We just released Entonal Tuner, our microtonal tuning app for Android.
The pro upgrade is half price until 6th January. https://t.co/zcQ61EiPqC

[Adam Wilson @AdamCodeGarden]

@jameskroner @JUCElibrary @kotlin Because: a) I wanted native Android UI, b) Its much nicer to work with than Java, c) it is easy to translate code or interop between Java and Kotlin, d) it is officially supported by Google and Android Studio.

When your work performance and confidence depend on each other, very bad things happen when one starts to lag. The only way to fix this is to separate the two and recognize that your worth does not come from your work.

[Adam Wilson @AdamCodeGarden]

Any devs interested in supporting microtonality in their apps or plugins, watch my talk from ADC! https://t.co/boIc9bdU9D

[Adam Wilson @AdamCodeGarden]

@tomduncalf @audiodevcon See you tomorrow!

[Adam Wilson @AdamCodeGarden]

@wrl @EmptyVessel_NZ Everything at 48kHz for the last few years. I get the idea about recording at 96kHz for pitching down too. But I think it also depends on your recording gear, whether you actually capture those frequencies.

[Adam Wilson @AdamCodeGarden]

@wrl @rikarends In general, I find composition easier to manage than inheritance. Although getting into Rust now, the lack of classes/inheritance is challenging the way I think about shared properties & functionality
