If you're like 99.9999% of other developers, you're using UserDefaults in an app.

And because you do that, you'll see this message when you upload your next build to the App Store.

Here's what to do about it…

Here's a real treat for you: A interview with microtonalist Ervin Wilson by Gary David, Stephen James Taylor, and myself. Erv was in top form--at his most brilliant. Hear his story of origin and how he came to revolutionize musical scale design:

@PaulDavisTheFirst Wilsonic is free, it is libre! Is there some kind of cost you're thinking of that I don't know about?

@PaulDavisTheFirst what do you mean by libre?

Check out my fabulous documentation for Wilsonic MTS-ESP! #wilsonic #microtonal #microtones #justintonation #mtsesp #oddsound https://wilsonic.co/__static/ab7e30c8e03cb88349ae5e5b65811f6d/wilsonic-mts-esp-documentation.pdf?dl=1

I've been selected as a speaker and will present Wilsonic MTS-ESP...working through the logistics.

Happy path: I'll be in SF 5/14 and 5/15 and share a refined version of my Microtonal University 61 Master Class, with demos: https://wilsonic.co/demos/demos-mts-esp/

Pro-return to office Amazon employee reveals an unexpected truth:

Post-pandemic dispersal to satellite offices can make a mockery of "getting people back together" three days / week.

Many return to offices where *none of their other team members are present*

Result: Dispersed teams going to offices to have remote zoom calls with each other.

#tb303 #303day okay okay one more: This is also one of my best TB 303 performances "Black Lip Cinderella". This was played live in many venues such as the Viper Room, and Terence McKenna's Wake in San Francisco in 2001.

Fun fact: I don't have a TB-303...I have a Devilfish! It's a TB-303 modified by #robinwhittle. Absolutely insane analog filter frequency modulation.

will be forever
