Question: Will we ever see native track freezing in Reaper? Asked by RuairiAU (203.59.148.x) on July 26 2011, 3:13am Reply on July 26 2011, 3:47am: Personally I don't like it as a concept, I'd much rather render a stem and mute the old one, so I realize what I'm doing. Comment... Question: Yeah, good question gio - Is Al a professional Chef? I haven't come across too many girls that can do this bit.ly/pLeXlH Asked by AnalBourdain (76.103.105.x) on July 26 2011, 12:22am Reply on July 26 2011, 3:50am: She's trained, and more importantly, has exquisite taste. Comment... Question: Do you cook yourself or let Al do all the magic? Asked by gio (62.103.65.x) on July 25 2011, 7:47pm Reply on July 26 2011, 3:49am: Al does the vast majority of it..

Asked by gio (62.103.65.x) on July 25 2011, 6:20pm Reply on July 26 2011, 3:49am: Other than avoiding excessive heap use, no.. REAPER does tend to use a lot of persistent buffers. WDL_HeapBuf, WDL_TypedBuf, etc, as members of classes, come in handy... and for things like queues we usually queue blocks and then store free blocks for later use. Comment... Question: ever get requests from colleges or Univ of Utah to come talk to students? Is your reaction like 'Oh fuck you guys' haha :) Asked by AnalSeducer (76.103.105.x) on July 25 2011, 6:20pm Reply on July 26 2011, 3:48am: Not really.. I've been asked by my HS (via askjf, even) to come do stuff though.. and I would be honored to at some point.. but I'm also quite busy and it's tough to get away. Comment... Question: How can I create lots of small files(2KB) on the fly in the same directory on Windows? It seems to be very slowly after a while Asked by Jiao (219.245.92.x) on July 25 2011, 1:09pm Reply on July 25 2011, 5:39pm: If you're putting more than a few hundred or thousand files in a directory you might want to use subdirectories to keep things quick... Comment... Question: How many questions have you answered here since 2009? Asked by Paul (24.63.14.x) on July 25 2011, 2:00am Reply on July 25 2011, 4:27am: Looks like about 1300.. the URL of each question has a number, I think it starts at 0 or 1. Comment...

Question: Is it true that the whole reason mark created fb was so he could beat off to jpg's uploaded by girls in college? Seems plausible Asked by AnalSeducer (76.103.105.x) on July 18 2011, 8:36pm Reply on July 22 2011, 3:25am: I wouldn't know. Comment...

These days I guess beef from Japan is questionable. :( Comment... Question: Which piece of software would you send back 15 years to yourself? (or would you not send anything back? :) Asked by Anon (82.69.60.x) on July 17 2011, 9:32am Reply on July 22 2011, 3:26am: Hmm, I'd probably send my entire git repository back? Of course then I wouldn't have learned everything I've learned, so it would be pointless. :/ Comment... Question: Would you share what the most difficult/challenging time of your life has been? Asked by Will (70.173.150.x) on July 17 2011, 5:37am Reply on July 22 2011, 3:31am: Hmm. That's tough. I could complain a lot about things I took very seriously when I was younger, but that was when I was younger. I was a bit disappointed when the book Ubik (by Philip K Dick) ended a touch abruptly. I enjoyed it greatly, was very sad to see it end. Comment... Question: Any tips on how to implement an accurate timer on Win32? Asked by Brujo (177.16.109.x) on July 17 2011, 1:20am Reply on July 22 2011, 3:27am: You can use the x86 instruction rdtsc to get a cycle timer (see WDL/timing.c in WDL).. or you can use QueryPerformanceCounter() etc. Assuming you mean accurate timestamps; if you want an accurate (and fast) recurring timer, probably should create a thread... Comment... Question: Have you got any inside information why M$ does not allow inline asm for x64? Asked by gio (62.103.65.x) on July 16 2011, 7:39am Reply on July 16 2011, 6:49pm: Probably they were sick of having to support it.. I'd think the GCC-style inline assembly would be easier to maintain, since you can specify which registers get thrashed, etc. Comment... Question: Will you adapt C++0x at some point or you'll stick with what you've got? Asked by gio (62.103.65.x) on July 15 2011, 12:32am Reply on July 16 2011, 5:15am: I haven't seen too much where I thought "I HAVE TO HAVE THAT"... but we'll see, once it becomes available everywhere.
