when creating a postgres db replica in RDS, or restoring from a snapshot, the
underlying EBS volume of the new instance must be initialized by reading every
block, otherwise the blocks will be lazy-initialized by production queries
which will be extremely latent. (i've seen normally 50ms queries take 30s in

Reaper hung midi note issue threads

This is by no means a perfect or complete list and I slapped it together in about five minutes of searching on the Cockos Forums and /r/reaper for "hung note" and "note off". I kindly ask that you just use this as initial evidence of a real problem, then do more comprehensive research to sort out the variants of it, any false-positives and user-error, and/or bugs that have actually been fixed historically. For instance, some people report the "all note off" action working to silence the notes, and others (myself included) find that action does nothing to help and end up doing crazy hacks. Check out the first link which is a thread around an entire video one guy made on how he works around the problem. For me and for others, that hack doesn't work.

On the Cockos forum there are lot of old threads on this bug that have survived through the years with folks continuing to chime in with recent versions, suggesting this is an old problem that still persists.

JW's accumulated tips for using LLMs as a dev

These mostly came out of various workshops, talks, and conversations at the AI World's Fair SF 2024. For example, the GitHub Copilot sessions, and there were other sessions dedicated to developer productivity such as Manuel Odenhal's session (link). I've aggregated the thinking on my own added more of my own thoughts as I've been incorporating more AI tools as a developer.

What LLMs are good at

• They are excellent at translation. Given input material in form X, produce output in form Y.
• They are excellent at reproducing and remixing commonly seen coding tasks
• They are great at generating feasible starting points for solutions given well-described, constrained problems.
• They are helpful for assisting in the higher-level design process and architectural thinking behind software development through brainstorming, thinking things through
