My advice: don’t change anything else right now.

The temptation is high to pack it all in at once; make all the big changes.

2 hours a day is a lot. Not too much, just a lot. So, since you asked, don’t change your diet yet. Get into the groove of building this new thing into some level of consistency. Once you’re 90 days in, start modifying something else. Diet. Sleep. Intensity.

Work on one routine at a time.

Now if you’re going too far into calorie deficit then you can think about what your energy needs are but keep the other changes to bare necessity.

I can’t imagine that being the case for most users. I’m absolutely a power user and I keep being surprised at how consistently high the performance is of my base model M1 Air w/16GB even when compared to another Mac workstation of mine with 64GB.

I can run two VMs, a ton of live loading development tooling, several JVM programs and so much more on that little Air and it won’t even sweat.

I’m not an Apple apologist - lots of poor decisions these days and software quality has taken a real hit. While 16GB means everyone’s getting a machine that should last much longer, I can’t see a normal user needing more any time soon, especially when Apple is optimizing their local machine learning models for their 8GB iOS platforms first and foremost.

Got a chance to ride in a BYD EV this summer. Impressive vehicle, doubly so for the price.

It exists for the outgoing Mac mini. We ran two minis in a 1u, colocated in a DC, for years. They ran Ubuntu server.

Wonka Piercer. It’s so implausible it just might be true.

…drew their swords and shot each other. A deaf policeman heard their cry.

If you don’t believe this lie is true. Ask the blind man, he saw it too.

Ardour 8.10 Reeased (discourse.ardour.org)
 

Longtime supporter (but rare user) of Ardour checking in. This incredible project is worthy of a look by anyone searching for an alternative to the DAW they’re using.

Not entirely accurate.

Zen brings a number of additions that even the Mozilla team have taken note of regarding features they hope to implement down the road.

While this is probably more interesting for a synthesizer community, Alex usually touches on how these instruments influence production and writing. Plus he's a brilliant musician in his own right.

And so, I thought it equally belongs here.

Hearing that opening line brings back so many memories.

 

It looks like the transition to a single company is underway.

This kind of monolithic beast isn't often musician friendly (look at what Waves tried recently). But, it also opens up the door for new players to make some headroom (har har).

It'll be interesting to see how the matrix of these products looks in a year's time.

 

It could be anything from tutorials, YouTube channels, plugins/software, anything goes for this first post.

One of the most recent things I've stumbled across recently was Baphometrix's Clip-to-zero series. While I don't work on music that needs to be competitively loud, the in-depth series helped provide a new perspective to incorporate into decades-old mixing habbits.

I also really appreciate the work Dan Worrall is doing these days: https://www.youtube.com/c/DanWorrall
