    Performing music together over an Internet connection is next to impossible if there is *any* lag at all. Typically, the lag is caused by short 10-50 millisecond delays for every router hop, at minimum one hop from you to your ISP, another from ISP to Internet Exchange Point (IXP), IXP to my ISP, and a fourth from my ISP to my computer. When you play the drum I hear your drumbeat 40-200 milliseconds after you play it. When I play a note on the piano you'll hear it 40-200 ms after I play it, or 80-400 ms after you've played your drumbeat. And our friend @StrangeAttractor will hear your drumbeat and my piano out-of-sync by 40-200 ms; if she plays her guitar synced to my piano you'll hear that 120-600 ms after you've played your drumbeat.

    There was a really cool commercial by Bell some 10 years ago that showed people playing together over their Internet connection; sadly it was only movie magic and no more realistic than flying through the air with a cape.

    More on the livestreaming dilemma...

    I need to have the option of multiple participants AT THE SAME TIME - like playing in a band. So maybe the keyboard and drums are in one place (live) and the sax player joins from another country via a link.

    Does anyone know of a platform that lets you do that - instead of like skype/zoom/hangouts where it changes to whoever is talking and features their image & sound?

    ...and the concert will be 24 hrs. long.

    ...and wouldn't you have to include the time to insert 225,000 microSD cards in your laptop, write 256 GBytes to them, and then (after transporting them at about 10 PBytes/second, assuming 6 seconds of flight time), spend more time to insert those 225,000 microSD cards in the other guy's laptop to read those 256 GBytes? But I guess that's marketing... cc/ @troublemoney @aurochs @hairylarry @randynose @pzmyers

    If I'm typing a bunch of unix command line stuff trying to figure out the right solution, and I eventually DO figure out the solution, one thing I do when possible is re-run the command with a comment like

    $ doing-the-thing.sh # This is the one that actually works

    So when I inevitably search my shell command history later, I have nice little notes

    What I don't get about Slack or any other 'chat as a service' system is why tech companies would willingly backdoor themselves with a surveillance system to harvest all their most private in-house discussions.

    All those chat logs must be worth quite a bit to the right buyers.

    For this year's Federal Election I'm seeking the Green Party of Canada nomination in Kitchener Centre. To nominate you must be a #GreenParty member 30 days before the nomination, that's TODAY! $10 gets you a 1 year membership: https://www.greenparty.ca/en/civicrm/contribute/transact?id=1&source=NC.W.MABU

    Once you've got your membership come to the Joint Nomination Party for #Kitchener and #Waterloo on 6 March, where you can cast a #RankedBallot to choose the candidate: https://gs.jonkman.ca/url/125231 … There will be snacks!
