Lawrence Tratt ☛ Recording and Processing Spoken Word
What happens if you listen to 60 seconds of your favourite radio station / audiobook and then 60 seconds of a random non-professional podcast? The former will be pleasant to listen to, with good intelligibility — it’s easy to understand everything the speakers say. The latter, however, are often somewhat unpleasant to listen to and have poor intelligibility. To add insult to injury, different episodes of the same podcast will often vary in quality and volume.
Fortunately, it turns out that most of us can get reasonably close to “professional” sounding recordings without much effort or money. In this post I’m going to break this down into two parts: recording and processing. My experience is that most of us eventually work out some recording techniques, but many fewer dive into processing. I’m going to show how one can use widely available command-line tools to process recordings, producing good quality mixes (i.e. the output we release to listeners).

CSVbase ☛ Being on The Semantic Web is easy, and, frankly, well worth the bother
I thought this concept hadn't really gone anywhere but it turns out that The Semantic Web (best read in a very deep voice) is now very widely adopted.
The Semantic Web is so widely adopted in fact that I think it's fair to say that we're already on Web 3.0. It's not the future, it's the present. I suppose that means the blockchain crowd will need to argue their case to get all that crypto stuff into the next major version. Good luck to them, really.
If Web 3.0 is already here, where is it, then? Mostly, it's hidden in the markup.

Manuel Matuzović ☛ Day 109: the animation-composition property
It’s time to get me up to speed with modern CSS. There’s so much new in CSS that I know too little about. To change that I’ve started #100DaysOfMoreOrLessModernCSS. Why more or less modern CSS? Because some topics will be about cutting-edge features, while other stuff has been around for quite a while already, but I just have little to no experience with it.
