Question: Do you have any pointers (ha) about a simple architecture for audio processing? I'd like to try writing a little daw in lua(jit).
Asked by exp2 (79.42.116.x) on June 6 2015, 9:04pm
Reply on June 9 2015, 4:28am:
    LuaJit will probably give you problems since you can't have threads, which are pretty essential for a DAW.

Question: Deflation, it hasn't been tested and many assumptions are made like fixed incomes and that there is only one currency. Re: trust, multi-sig escrow. As I mentioned a lot has changed in 2 years. I won't try to persuade you anymore. You seem happy with your current opinions. Perhaps I was wrong about it being a good fit for you.
Asked by JimmaJamma (67.84.38.x) on June 4 2015, 2:25am
Reply on June 5 2015, 2:29pm:
    Perhaps! But again, distributed trust is interesting, and bitcoin as a vehicle for that is interesting too.

Question: Do you regret handing the reigns off to WA3 dev to Brennan instead of doing it yourself once you had the financial resources of AOL? It seems you more than any other had the best chance of becoming what is now itunes/spotify/etc.. Seems almost like a wasted opportunity. :(
Asked by Will (70.173.145.x) on June 2 2015, 11:52pm
Reply on June 3 2015, 2:13pm:
    I don't think anything we could have done would have made a difference, honestly. AOL wasn't in a business of not fucking things up.
