Question: What's the wildest math concept you've learned about or had to deal with? Or maybe a CS one. Asked by Beto (177.228.208.x) on May 6 2022, 5:14pm Reply on May 7 2022, 9:17pm: I dunno about math or CS, but I read somewhere recently how galaxies that are extremely far away can look closer than galaxies that are closer, because when the light originated from the really far-away galaxy, the universe was smaller, which makes the galaxy look larger. Or something. 2 Comments... Question: Hi Justin. Hope you are doing well. I was wondering if you might have a chance to have a look at the DDP Marker Editor that you help port to Mac. I’ve had a few guys email me about getting it to work with the new Macs (M1) arm processor, and few guys ask about a Linux port. I have no idea how to do this as I’ve not done anything with it for 4 years now. I’m just a Guitar Player…lol Anyway, I didn’t think it would hurt to ask you, since you done the Mac port.

Question: How are the getChunk and setChunk Reaper VST extensions used? Asked by Datajake1999 (172.115.154.x) on May 6 2022, 12:26pm Reply on May 7 2022, 9:20pm: effVendorSpecific/effGetChunk is called when a reascript or similar calls TrackFX_GetNamedConfigParm(). value is a pointer to the name, ptr is a buffer, and the float value is the size of the buffer. a string should be written and 0xf00d returned if supported. effVendorSpecific/effSetChunk is called when a reascript or similar calls SetNamedConfigParm(), value is a pointer to the name, ptr is a pointer to a null-terminated string. Should return 0xf00d if supported. Comment... Question: Which thing makes you love a song? Lyrics only? Music only? Lyrics first then music? Music first then lyrics? "Oh, I just love to listen to cool drum beats and nothing else"? :P Asked by Abhi (27.58.87.x) on May 6 2022, 10:42am Reply on May 7 2022, 9:21pm: All of it. For lyrics, the exact or intended meaning matters less than the melody, rhythm, and pleasing sounds of the words. Good songs often end up with you assigning your own meanings or incorrect words to them anyway... Comment... Question: WDL_TypedBuf::SetToZero(): Did you had any issues related to uninitialized memory? if (1) I want to hear about those cases.

In 2018 I started an educational podcast where I kept the same questions and for a full year, I had daily a new guest.
