But you can't even play a chord progression in tune without changing the root tone.

Not dissing this, it's a cool experiment and I like the visualization, but there's a reason strict just intonation hasn't been used for 500 years.

I'm a violinist! The answer is "it depends". There are so many complexities to tuning that relies on harmony which is continuously changing. Mostly it is done with careful listening and intuition. Even playing with a piano, we won't play in equal temperament 100% of the time.

We are using it at couchers.org. It's a drop-in replacement to the 1.x versions which were properly open source.

Though it would need writing all the network code!

Looks great, I would use it over gRPC just for being able to use objects instead of the java-like setX nonsense.

So, either News Corp gets $$$ from FB and Google, or they pull out of Australia and people have to go directly to them for news.

Fantastic, a win win situation for everyone's least favourite company. And the protagonists are shit as well.
