FRAGMENTS if you missed it... - YUKSEK _ On my way... Mardi 30 mars 2010 2 30 /03 /Mars /2010 01:12 Artists are always asked some mix for radio shows, webzines... Short ones, then longer ones, then... there's always a new brief to make what finally appears to be quite the same thing. As i'm about to finish the "Away from the sea" tour, i wanted to make a review of all the things that happened to me last years: all the people i met, the collaborations i had the chance to do, the artists i discovered and liked.... I started with the remixes i did this 3 last years, and added to the remixes other artists and friends made of my own tracks. Hope you enjoy it people! 1. ok, I should have include Gorillaz, Shit disco, Mika, Booba... and some of my other remixes, but i'm sure you'll find a way to get it... Partager l'article ! inShare
Goldberg Variations Title page of the Goldberg Variations (first edition) Composition[edit] The tale of how the variations came to be composed comes from an early biography of Bach by Johann Nikolaus Forkel:[1] [For this work] we have to thank the instigation of the former Russian ambassador to the electoral court of Saxony, Count Kaiserling, who often stopped in Leipzig and brought there with him the aforementioned Goldberg, in order to have him given musical instruction by Bach. The Count was often ill and had sleepless nights. At such times, Goldberg, who lived in his house, had to spend the night in an antechamber, so as to play for him during his insomnia. ... Forkel wrote his biography in 1802, more than 60 years after the events related, and its accuracy has been questioned. Arnold Schering has suggested that the aria on which the variations are based was not written by Bach. Publication[edit] Rather unusually for Bach's works,[3] the Goldberg Variations were published in his own lifetime, in 1741.
MITx 6.002x: Circuits & Electronics Présentation "powerpoint" du framework GStreamer | Le blog de NicoLargoLe blog de NicoLargo Comme vous avez pu le remarquer, depuis quelques mois la fréquence des billets sur le blog est en chute libre. La "faute" à mon boulot (celui qui paye les factures) pour lequel je suis pas ma en déplacement. J'ai pu juger comme il était difficile de bloguer loin de ses terres. J'ai donc vite renoncer à écrire des articles depuis les chambres d’hôtels et j'ai préféré visiter les belles villes de Rennes et de Paris. Cependant ces fameuses mission m'ont permis de poser sur quelques planches "powerpoint" (c'est votre chef qui va être heureux) une introduction au framework GStreamer que j'aborde souvent dans mon blog (voir la page dédiée ici). Pour d'évidentes raisons de compatibilité, je diffuse la présentation au format PDF (il suffit de cliquer sur l'image ci-dessous pour lancer le téléchargement).
Christophe Cariou — Données Statistiques Visualisations — Economie et Management des Médias — Consultant freelance Git pour les nuls Voici un tutoriel Git détaillé pour ceux qui en connaissent très peu sur les systèmes de versions. Vous comprendrez l’utilité de tels systèmes et surtout comment on se sert des systèmes de versions modernes, le tout en restant le plus pragmatique possible. Voici la liste des commandes nécessaires et suffisantes pour utiliser Git. Il y en a très peu. Il est normal de ne pas les comprendre tout de suite mais c’est pour vous donner une idée. Récupérer un projet : git clone Utiliser Git tous les jours : git pull git log hack, hack, hack... git status git diff git add new/file git commit -a -m "Fix bug #321" git push Cet article est écrit pour ceux qui en savent très peu sur les systèmes de version. Si tout ce qui vous intéresse c’est d’utiliser Git tout de suite. Git est un DCVS, c’est-à-dire un système de versions concurrentes décentralisé. Système de versions Tout d’abord, les systèmes de versions gèrent des fichiers. Qu’apportent les systèmes de versions ? exemple
Blogging With Octopress It’s been almost two years since this blog last changed significantly, and in that time I’ve become a bit dissatisfied with it for a few reasons: WordPress is excellent, but it’s over-featured for what I need, and its PHP/MySQL guts are opaque. I don’t really like the idea of all my writing being inside a big database either; it’s a single point of failure, and that makes me uneasy.Despite using various caching plugins (WP-supercache, W3 Total Cache, DBCache Reloaded), the site still became very unresponsive during the several fireballs I’ve had.I’ve become increasingly invested in a philosophy of simplicity and portability. I do all my writing in the Markdown format, for example, and I value software that’s laser-focused and as purposeful as possible (that’s why I do most of my work in BBEdit). For all these reasons, I’ve decided to make a change: this blog is now entirely static HTML, or is “baked” as the term seems to be. A few points of note: I now use Disqus for comments.
Existential Risk Prevention as a Global Priority ABSTRACT: Existential risks are those that threaten the entire future of humanity. Many theories of value imply that even relatively small reductions in net existential risk have enormous expected value. Despite their importance, issues surrounding human-extinction risks and related hazards remain poorly understood. KEYWORDS: existential risk, catastrophic risk, future of humanity, human extinction, sustainability, maxipok, population ethics 1. 1.1. An existential risk is one that threatens the premature extinction of Earth-originating intelligent life or the permanent and drastic destruction of its potential for desirable future development (Bostrom 2002). In contrast, our species is introducing entirely new kinds of existential risk — threats we have no track record of surviving. Probability can be understood in different senses. Figure 1: Meta-level uncertainty. 1.2. There are conflicting theories in moral philosophy about which normative evaluations are correct. 1.3. 1.4. 2. 2.1.
Ektoplazm - Free Music Portal and Psytrance Netlabel - MP3, FLAC, and WAV Downloads ‘Epic Citadel’ Demo Shows the Power of the Web as a Platform for Gaming At the 2013 Game Developers’ Conference, Mozilla demonstrated how it was unlocking the Web as a platform for gaming by announcing a port of Unreal Engine 3 running in Firefox — compiled from C++ source with Emscripten, running smoothly and efficiently without the need for plugins. Today, Epic and Mozilla are making the Epic Citadel demo available, so that you can try it out for yourself. For best results, we suggest using a newer version of Firefox Nightly (Firefox 23 or better) which includes optimizations for asm.js and support for Web Audio API. The demo will also run in Firefox 20 (the current released version) because the core technologies are just standard web technologies, but there will be some performance degradation and a lack of Web Audio-dependent audio effects. To achieve the performance that makes these advancements possible, Mozilla developed asm.js, a highly-optimized subset of JavaScript that enables Emscripten-compiled applications to reach near-native performance.
Kanbanzine | Vivez la collaboration d’une équipe de journalistes ! ALF - INRIA IRISA This Research-Team is a follow-up of CAPS Research-Team Project-Team Presentation Joint project-team with the University of Rennes 1. Multicore processors have now become mainstream for both general-purpose and embedded computing. In the near future, every hardware platform will feature thread level parallelism. Within a decade, it will become technologically feasible to implement 1000's of cores on a single chip. The ALF team will regroup researchers in computer architecture, software/compiler optimization, and real-time systems. Research themes Microarchitecture research directions: High performance on single process and sequential codes is one of the key issues for enabling overall high performance on a 1000's core system.

J’ai testé les verres anti « lumière bleue » | Thomas Pascaud Il y a 2 mois, j’ai décidé de changer de lunettes de vue et de tester un tout nouveau traitement anti lumière bleue, le LongLife BlueControl fabriqué par Hoya. La lumière bleu et ses conséquences La lumière bleue est une large partie du spectre de la lumière artificielle dégagée par les écrans (télévision, ordinateurs, mobiles…). – elle serait responsable d’une dégradation de la rétine entrainant une DMLA (Dégénérescence Maculaire Liée à l’Âge) – elle agirait sur notre horloge interne, ainsi les personnes étant exposées de nombreuses heures à ces écrans, et notamment le soir, seraient sujets à des troubles de l’humeur et du sommeil. En ayant travaillé à de nombreuses reprises pour l’UNADEV, j’ai été suffisamment sensibilisé à la malvoyance pour être motivé à tester un traitement filtrant cette lumière nocive. Ce que changent les verres traités La première conséquence de ce traitement est le changement de teinte de l’image qui parvient à nos yeux. Un traitement à généraliser ?
