NotesHave you ever hit the number keys while watching Youtube? That simple action jumps the video to different timestamps - and creative musicians have discovered you can use this like a primitive sampler. This observation sparked an idea.
As someone who loves experimenting with drum machines like the Arturia Drumbrute, I wanted to take this Youtube "feature" and transform it into something musical. I built Youtube Sequencer using TypeScript and Redux to create a robust, reliable music-making tool that doesn't miss a beat. The result is a sequencer that turns any Youtube video into an instrument.
Traditional sampling can be time-consuming, requiring you to download, trim, and import audio files. Youtube Sequencer removes these barriers - just paste a URL and start creating.Unfurl
NotesMetta Spencer, a sociologist whose online broadcasts regularly feature world leaders in the fields of peace, climate change, pandemics, famine and, ironically, cyber risks said she spent weeks trying to convince YouTube Canada that the porn clips were the result of a hacking attack, without success.
NotesBetween 2009 and 2012, iPhones had a built-in "Send to YouTube" button in the Photos app. Many of these uploads kept their default IMG_XXXX filenames, creating a time capsule of raw, unedited moments from random lives.
Inspired by Ben Wallace, I made a bot that crawled YouTube and found 5 million of these videos! Watch them below, ordered randomly.Unfurl
NotesApple uses the ‘IMG_XXXX’ naming convention for all images and videos captured on iOS devices, where XXXX is a unique sequence number. The first image you take is named “IMG_0001”, the second is “IMG_0002” and so on. During the Send to YouTube era of 2009 and 2012, the title of one’s YouTube video was defaulted to this naming convention. Unwitting content creators would then upload their videos on a public site with a barely-searchable name. To this day, there are millions of these videos.FeedUnfurl

I'll then show where the JS leading edge is going: ASM.js, a compiler technology for translating C and C++ programs including high-end games into JS and WebGL. I will close by talking about how JS can satisfy all these demands and remain a coherent, healthy, and extremely popular programming language.EmbedUnfurl

NotesFavorite: Mass Effect 3 - Ending Movie Comparison - All the Colors, by Crosscade Watch and compare the various ending movies of Mass Effect 3. Mass Effect 3's ending movies reuse most of the same movie clips outright or are just a recolored version. I've pieced together the endings so that the reused clips run side by side to empathize how similar they are. From Left to Right, the endings are as follows: Destroy Good, Destroy Bad, Destroy Vaporization Control Good, Control Bad Synergy Good (there is no bad version of this) Bioware's poor attempt at an ending to this outstanding series is a huge let down. It is almost universally agreed by gamers that the endings are not consistent with or are worthy ending to the Mass Effect Trilogy. Let Bioware know that they need to fix this lazy ending. An interesting read on how the ending let down the fans: http://www.gamefront.com/mass-effect-3-ending-hatred-5-reasons-the-fans-are-right/ Music: Mass Effect 1 - Victory Mass Effect 1 - VigilEmbedUnfurl

NotesFavorite: "Sunshine on a Stick", by halrkane http://www.youtube.com/user/halrkane?feature=mhum Link Sponsored by: NEXXUS INTERACTIVE MEDIA CORPORATION "Time for Timer was the collective title for a short series of public service announcements broadcast on Saturday mornings on the ABC television network starting in the early 1970s." - Wikipedia MESSY, FROZEN, JUICE BRICKS I love the fact that Timer thinks 12 orange juice cubes are a weeks supply of snacks. At 6 years old, I was so impatient that I never gave them the chance to freeze completely, and would scarf them down immediately! My little sunshines on a stick where effected by global warming! I'd check on them every 2 minutes, and after checking on them 5 times, well, they seemed frozen enough to me. I'd "carefully" remove the plastic wrap, which in-turn, would dislodge ALL of my "sticks", and after popping them out of the tray, I was left with 12 messy, partially frozen, ice juice cubes on a sticky dinner plate. There was orange juice still sloshing around inside of them! After picking one up, the juice cube would collapse sending a trail of orange juice cascading down my arms that would pool up under my elbows and drip to the floor. "SPLASH!!!" 12 orange juice cubes didn't last for a week, they lasted 5 minutes! And as far as nutrition goes, I was lucky if I received even .0000002975% of my daily requirement of vitamin C from those messy, frozen, juice bricks! But that was okay, because I was proud to have made a "healthy after school snack" for myself, thanks to some helpful advice from a weird little lemon-drop named, Timer. I hope that you enjoy this treasured blast-from-the-past as much as I do. Best wishes, ~ Hal R.

NotesFavorite: Existential Blues, by wabbitt86 In the Heyday of the Dr. Demento Show, an unknown to us artist (Tom T-bone Stankus) released a song called Existential Blues. It went straight to number one on the weekly Dr. D top ten. It then got pulled and they (KMET) were no longer allowed to play it until certain parts of the song were edited due to a copywrite issue - A big movie lawyer wanted money from a guy that recorded a song in his garage. So they chopped up the song and put it back on the air....and every week, my ten year old ears would yearn for the missing lines to the song....not because I thought they were great lines or from a great movie or because the line had already been pimped out in auto commercials, but rather, because to me, it was part of the song. It was the way it was supposed to be. I had not ever seen the movie, I was not going to be buying one of those cars...To me, It was a violation of our sunday evening right to enjoy a Great song. Well Here is my Tribute to Tbone and all the listeners that were ripped off weekly by the censorship of this song.

NotesFavorite: Some Quick Thoughts on "Until Abortion Ends", by illdoc1 See addendum here: http://jsmooth995.tumblr.com/post/14262038303/sitwherethelightcorruptsyourface-jsmooth995 http://twitter.com/jsmooth995 A personal pledge to help everyone at untilabortionends.com keep improving their diet so they can live longer and healthier lives. The members of that site seem quite earnest, and I hope in principle to be respectful of everyone no matter strongly I disagree, so I'm trying not to be TOO snarky here. But the underlying logic of this protest is baffling. They seem to be hoping that women who've decided to seek an abortion will visit this site and say "wow, if you feel strongly enough about this that you're making the irrevocable life-changing decision of giving up Dr. Pepper, maybe I should reconsider having a child that I can't support!"EmbedUnfurl
