Question: Was the transition to EC2 smooth?
Asked by gio (62.103.65.x) on April 3 2011, 1:35am
Reply on April 3 2011, 7:31am:
    Yeah. EC2 is pretty awesome. If you reserve instances in advance, it gets very inexpensive too (for a business).

Question: You said you like a "subset" of C++. What subset is this?
Asked by Rodrigo Dias (189.114.201.x) on April 2 2011, 6:45pm
Reply on April 3 2011, 7:34am:
    Essentially C with classes, limited to single inheritance (and mostly just inheriting from an abstract base class), templates, declaring variables when needed (rather than forcing a new {} block), and using default parameters. That's about it, maybe? No operator overloading, except some basic operator= on widely used classes since the default operators are often unsafe for most classes.

Question: R4 OSX 64-bit, why still beta? I'd recommend it to Jari (Wintersun), he's in need for a 64-bit DAW. What can he expect?
Asked by EvilDragon (94.253.157.x) on April 1 2011, 6:55am

Question: isn't sony vegas in the dot net framework? that's one of my favorite apps, and the video editing is fantastic.still unimpressed?
Asked by andrew (173.165.1.x) on March 31 2011, 12:44pm
Reply on March 31 2011, 8:03pm:
    I think the newer versions use it for some things (but I do not believe the whole app uses it), and the older versions did not, and tbh vegas 4.0 is my favorite (or 6.0 if you need newer codec and vst support I guess).

Question: What do you think of QT vs rolling your own UI stuff in win32?
Asked by Will (24.234.128.x) on March 29 2011, 2:00pm
Reply on March 31 2011, 9:50am:
    I get why you would want to avoid writing win32 code -- but I think what you get if you invest the time in it is superior. Classic cost/benefit tradeoff.
