Ciro Santilli @cirosantilli 37

Bought circa 2017.

Higher level than Csound: describes the notes only, not the exact waveforms it seems.

Therefore also a bit harder to convert to actual sound: stackoverflow.com/questions/33775336/convert-musicxml-to-wav but possibly easier to convert to LilyPond.

Now they need to create a "MusicCSS" that gives the waveforms! :-)

The usual "let's make a standard without a reference implementation" W3C approach.

Located in Tennessee in the East of the United States.

The precursor organization to ORNL was called Clinton Engineer Works, where groundbreaking Manhattan Project experiments and nuclear production took place during World War II

Some key experiments carried out there include:

This company is a bit like Sun Microsystems, you can hear a note of awe in the voice of those who knew it at its peak. This was a bit before Ciro Santilli's awakening.

Those people created OpenGL for God's sake! Venerable.

Both of them and Sun kind of died in the same way, unable to move from the workstation to the personal computer fast enough, and just got killed by the scale of competitors who did, notably Nvidia for graphics cards.

Some/all Nintendo 64 games were developed on it, e.g. it is well known that this was the case for Super Mario 64.

Also they were a big UNIX vendor, which is another kudos to the company.

This is quite close! But as mentioned at: stars nearest to the Sun, there are several others nearby. Notably Sirius at 9 ly, the brightest star in the sky as of 2020.

Working remotely is hard if you don't already highly master the software and enterprise systems used.

Also you don't feel people's love as strongly, and usefulness is built on love, see also Steve Jobs's Pixar office space design philosophy.

But please, give workers a small silent office so that we can concentrate instead of a silly open space, and create an internal social network so people can see what others are doing.

Remote working is much better if the majority of the team also does it, otherwise you will get excluded. Maybe after VR...

It is quite cool that photosynthesis works just like cellular respiration by producing a proton potential through chemiosmosis.
