Question: Where did you learn to program most of the AVS effects? Abrash? Asked by Will (24.234.85.x) on September 18 2012, 12:12am Reply on September 18 2012, 12:11pm: Most of the early stuff was just made up as it went along.. later on there was some Geiss influence too =) Comment... Question: Do you like chess? Asked by ees. (69.15.110.x) on September 17 2012, 10:28am Reply on September 17 2012, 1:36pm: I know the basic rules, but never have gotten very good at either a) recognizing known patterns, or b) thinking more than a step ahead. Comment... Question: What is your take on Google's Vulnerability Reward Program and vulnerability brokerage in general? Asked by Bob (95.154.230.x) on September 16 2012, 4:43pm Reply on September 17 2012, 1:35pm: Haven't looked at it much, but it seems to make sense. Comment... Question: You think vendors should be (or atleast should feel) obliged to fix vulnerabilities? Or should software be "AS IS" w/o fixes? Asked by Bobstillshort (93.174.93.x) on September 16 2012, 4:39pm Reply on September 17 2012, 1:35pm: I think that's up to the author and their license -- I can see arguments for both ways, and the license agreements should make it clear what the policy is and what users should expect, and likewise users should know what to look for. Comment... Question: What's your take on public vulnerable discloser if a vendor is already informed but still won't fix the vulnerability? Asked by Bobtooshort (67.159.5.x) on September 16 2012, 4:33pm Reply on September 17 2012, 1:34pm: I think disclosing vulnerabilities if a vendor hasn't fixed in some decent amount of time (such as 90 days) is reasonable. Comment... Question: Many years ago on your .plan, you posted an asm snippet that was the secret sauce of nitrane's speed. What was that? Asked by Will (70.173.150.x) on September 9 2012, 5:11am Reply on September 9 2012, 9:22pm: No idea, URL or copy of the code? It was probably some MMX or 3DNow! specific stuff... Comment... Question: Any new musical discoveries that you're digging?.......or should I ask you a question about REAPER? (lol) Asked by schmoe (50.98.73.x) on September 8 2012, 9:56pm Reply on September 8 2012, 10:11pm (edited at September 8 2012, 11:11pm): Been enjoying Menomena's first album a lot (especially the last track -- here it is, live, I wish I was there!), now I've started to listen to their newer albums too. Comment... Question: Would you ever consider giving a "State of the REAPER address" a couple times per year? Asked by Mommy (99.173.159.x) on September 8 2012, 3:04pm Reply on September 8 2012, 7:10pm: Sure, but I'm sure it would just disappoint most of the people who would bother to tune in, because I wouldn't talk about what they want me to talk about... Comment... Question: Thanks for the reply, Justin. Sorry for my older posts, but I hope you understand the frustration of us users on certain things. Asked by Tinny (88.207.72.x) on September 8 2012, 1:03pm Reply on September 8 2012, 7:10pm: I do, but also believe that a certain amount of frustration in users is inevitable. Comment... Question: Is there a technical reason why feedback routing in Reaper disables PDC? Is there no way to make it work with PDC? Thanks! Asked by Tinny (88.207.72.x) on September 7 2012, 4:32pm Reply on September 7 2012, 5:26pm: To be clear, it doesn't disable all PDC, just PDC for tracks that are in feedback loops. It can't be supported in feedback because you run into causality constraints -- if an effect needs to look ahead, but the coming samples are affected by the effect, etc. Comment... Question: 1st) At which point{version} REAPER did everything you wanted to do? 2nd) Any interesting article you read lately? :) Asked by gio (94.66.74.x) on September 6 2012, 7:38pm Reply on September 7 2012, 1:24am: Well my needs have grown as REAPER has, but I think around the first Christmas release (was it 0.42?) things were pretty usable for audio recording/editing. Comment... Question: How many times/year do you visit UK, is there a reason that benefits REAPER or recreational moments? Asked by gio (94.66.74.x) on September 6 2012, 6:29pm Reply on September 7 2012, 1:25am: A couple-to-a-few. There are some REAPER benefits, yeah, but also we have some friends who live in London. Comment... Question: What happened to the REAPER lounge? Asked by Mommy (99.173.159.x) on September 4 2012, 11:39pm Reply on September 5 2012, 9:13am: We added a password which is not secret, but it effectively keeps threads in the lounge from polluting the search results and new thread lists for users who are not interested. Comment... Question: What program do you use to edit your blog videos? Asked by Will (24.234.85.x) on September 4 2012, 11:00pm Reply on September 5 2012, 9:14am: REAPER of course :) Comment... Question: Would you ever create an encrypted chat program, similar to WASTE? Your initial version was so ideal, still no real replacement! Asked by Gonzo (99.64.105.x) on September 4 2012, 5:24pm Reply on September 5 2012, 9:14am: mayyybe, I have some ideas loosely related, but they aren't quite ready for implementation yet. Comment... Question: www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_ek1wSe66o 35:35 in, AVS should work perfect on a web player now. :) Asked by Will (216.207.189.x) on September 1 2012, 6:43pm Reply on September 2 2012, 9:36pm: Neato! Someone did an avs/milkdrop clone already, though, I believe. Comment... Question: hey jb do you think it is a good idea to get tattos Asked by liz cissieros (71.93.240.x) on August 31 2012, 11:22pm Reply on September 2 2012, 9:35pm: I don't personally want them, but I don't have much of an opinion about 'em. Comment... Question: Are you ever worried about your source code being stolen? Which precautionary measures do you take? Asked by Will (24.234.85.x) on August 31 2012, 4:22pm Reply on September 2 2012, 9:34pm: Not particularly-- I am generally way more concerned about source lost than source stolen... Our source wouldn't be of much use to a competitor, there's nothing really non-obvious about it. Comment... Question: You really think so? I guess there's no hope to see any of those listed features in Reaper anytime then? :( Asked by Tinny (212.92.200.x) on August 28 2012, 7:53am Reply on August 28 2012, 10:55am: I wouldn't say that, but it's complicated. BTW look at the note at the top of this page. Comment... Question: Do you still use Winamp to listen to music? Do you fire up vis plugins much? Asked by Will (70.173.150.x) on August 27 2012, 3:02am Reply on August 28 2012, 12:05am: Yes, most of the time when listening to music that isn't being edited on the computer. Vis, not so much anymore. Comment... [newer questions] [unreplied] | [replied] | [recent comments] | [all] [older questions]
