    You can visualize it but it seems like you need some externalization to make it real (saying things, practicing the motion, etc).

Question: hey jf- how do you actually feel about "secrets"? or "whistleblower reports" + how might (youtu.be/ZSj7QsHRxHQ news report affect your good self? thanx.. ::we see this as IMPORTANT news::

Reply on June 7 2023, 6:02pm:
    I think the government has too many secrets for sure, but then there are some that probably shouldn't be released ... e.g. things that are just embarrassing but without any public benefit. Snowden giving a trove to the Guardian who then was very selective on what was important to release was a good model IMO. Releasing cables of diplomats discussing things seems less helpful and more destructive. Anyway...

Question: Which curse do you choose? Every time someone purchase REAPER you sneeze (small sneeze for the discout and a normal sneeze for the comercial) or at every REAPER version release you have to post a video dancing (5sec for dev versions, 15 sec for normal versions, 5min for a big release (like v7) ???

    I'd probably go the dancing route, though the 5 minutes for big release would be a bit much that's only every so many years...

Question: What are the odds that Reaper will be able to use the native Wayland GDK backend in the future? I've been really enjoying using Reaper on swaywm with my Framework laptop but since the built-in monitor is a 3:2 HiDPI resolution, I have to use fractional scaling to make it usable and that makes XWayland apps noticeably blurry. It's not too bad, but I would love a crisper UI!

    Hard to say, plug-in compat in this case would be a nightmare.

Question: Thoughts on OO? Overstructured or the simplest solution possible for large problems?

Reply on June 3 2023, 1:58pm:
    It depends! Over-designing and overfitting is a problem, as are lack of encapsulation and poorly-defined interdependencies.

Question: Does Realimit alter ("touch") the audio in any way if the audio is below the threshold and brick-wall limit? My guess an hope is that it's not. So far I'm liking more than my Ozone limiter, and that's saying a lot!
