WDYM? Leap seconds are a 61st second, hitting 60 before 00 next minute. https://nrc.canada.ca/en/certifications-evaluations-standard...

This makes sense for timestamps in traditional logs. You don't have to second guess the order of things, especially across multiple systems or services.


I meant unix and NTP times, which are supposedly just monotonic numbers marching forward (except for leap seconds), not the UTC representation over abstract time.

I know we just get a 60th second in a minute. What unix and NTP timestamps do (or originally did) was repeating a second. Then we got other hacks to keep monotonicity, like smearing. Not without tradeoffs.


Thanks for explaining! It's indeed crazy that "this is still a thing".

(I regret I did not put in the research prior to answering to your comment: https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/info/leap-second.htm#... )


The end-user costs are slim to none, but for OpenAI alone they're hundreds of billions USD.

LLMs certainly have their use and are here to stay but it remains to be seen how they can be commercially successful without constant injections of venture capital.

These days even the French (!) speak English.


I liked it too, especially the presentation, although I'm not sure what I think about "leftovers" falling down.

While not being cannabis, breast milk contains endocannabinoids.


Neat! Sparklines could also benefit.


I suppose that depends on the use case.

For mash-ups specifically, using yt-dlp to download music and split into stems with Demucs, using the UVR frontend, before importing into a DAW is effortless. The catch is that you can't expect to get OK-ish separation on anything other than vocals and "other", which really isn't a problem for mash-ups.

IS there any DAW plugins that do that ?


There are several. I've only tried one of them (free, can't remember which) but went back to UVR5.

While it's convenient not having to split stems into separate files beforehand, by using a VST, you usually end up doing so anyway while editing and arranging.


It's nice to read the different takes on this.

On that note, I didn't see any mention of https://github.com/romkatv/zsh4humans/blob/master/tips.md#ex... , so there.
