I heard recently that Allen & Heath released (without too much of a bang) an updated version of their Xone:92 DJ mixer. This mixer is one of the greatest and the Xone sound is so, so great. One night in a club, I remember Objekt starting his set on a Xone mixer while the previous DJs were playing on a Pioneer mixer. That sound difference was crazy. While Pioneer's sound was all flat and crispy, the Xone sound was punchy, breathy, and lively. 

The now legendary Hessle Audio label with a release from Pearson Sound. Groovy, Psychological, and Acid all at the same time. Great great stuff.

Dither Boy is a software that produces very cool dithering effects on images. You can pick from multiple algorithms and customize them. Pretty cool! I wish I would have the same kind of things but for vector content. That is definitely something I keep in mind for my plotter art.

With its latest release, cursor (the AI code editor) allows the user to set multiple rules in the .cursor/rules directory. The agent will then use the most appropriate rules for the task you are asking the AI. The cursor.directory website list amazing prompts you can use.

An incredible mise en abyme happened yesterday. A developer managed to get 2x improvement by letting DeepSeek-r1 write code for a specific part of llama.cpp.

Surprisingly, 99% of the code in this PR is written by DeekSeek-R1. The only thing I do is to develop tests and write prompts (with some trials and errors)

According to the prompts shared by the developer, the model spent thinking 3 to 5 minutes per response.
