I'm loving Bash 5.3 at the moment!

@jamesbritt oh, neat! did you finish it or did it just become a gist? i've written, upon request, lots of section / pattern sequencer things, and also, this low-level one:

i've been so busy with EQ30 (a mutilated 4xEQ10 with Canvas) and Groovebox8120 updates that i haven't gotten around to also putting in BPM & LPB print but i really should stop just thinking about it and do it quickly since it takes zero effort, I've got all the pieces already. #renoise #paketti #lua #scripting

There should have been a Jr developer intern ( just #scripting work ) thing in 2000-2010 , was it there ?
How does being able to write SQL helps you in understanding database of any type

Have you ever needed to time your #powershell scripts and see what is slowing them down? Or even need to find out what is the fastest process between multiple options?

Here’s a few ways you can do that.

Timing Scripts

How to manage time effectively in scripts

TIL that software (especially #scripting runtimes like #Python, #Perl, and #NodeJS) running in #Alpine #Linux containers is often slower than in other distros like #Ubuntu. This is despite Alpine being faster on startup and often vastly more efficient with CPU, memory, and storage.

It mostly comes down to Alpine’s use of musl libc rather than #GNU’s glibc. musl is optimized for minimalism, not raw performance. Also, the Alpine packages are often not compiled with as many optimizations.

I Updated My Blog Script

Back in June, I wrote a post about a script I wrote to automate posting to this blog. It was a fairly simple script that basically crafted the title and then created the .md file with the front matter inside. I have to admit, I was pretty proud of that script, and I’ve been using it ever since. Every blog post I’ve published since then has been started with that script.
