That’s why you need to choose the right monitoring tool to help you track time. I haven’t tried this on Linux but I suspect you could do something similar (assuming there is an equivalent to open).Whether you’re tracking employee activity or a freelancer’s billable hours – time tracking is a vital business process. I might do this for other menubar applications that I like to have active, but are hidden. Now this works as expected! I no longer have to worry about RescueTime not running. open -hide -background /Applications/$app.app opens the specified application.|| will conditionally run the next statement if the previous was falsey (i.e., no application was found running).The STDOUT output is directed to the void so that it doesn’t create new mail entries. ps aux | grep -v grep | grep -ci $app > /dev/null lists all running processes, excluding the grep process, and finally counting the found lines while greping for the application’s name.app=Rescuetime sets a variable of what application we’re trying to keep open.*/5 * * * * app=Rescuetime ps aux | grep -v grep | grep -ci $app > /dev/null || open -hide -background /Applications/$app.app # Scroll to see full command (it is one line due to fitting in the crontab) This will prevent the open from triggering multiple times during the day. My next approach was to only open the application if it wasn’t already running. I could decrease the frequency that the command would run or… Only open if Application isn’t Running When I looked at the time it was always on the minute the cron would trigger… If I had to take a guess, the open was causing focus to switch briefly and would interrupt keystrokes on the current application I was in. I noticed every now and then a keystroke or two wouldn’t register. The hide and background flags didn’t work for some applications (e.g., Evernote always appears in the forefront for whatever reason).ĭone deal then right? Wrong. I even tested this with other applications and it mostly worked as expected. This worked for me – it opened RescueTime if it was closed out. The -hide and -background ensure that the application doesn’t open in an obtrusive manner (i.e., think applications with a GUI). Using we can see that this will run the open for ResuceTime command every 5 minutes. */5 * * * * open -hide -background /Applications/RescueTime.app

![]() Best Virtual DJ Software?Ĭheck out number 3 on our list, Serato DJ Pro. It’s also great that it’s part DAW (digital audio interface) and part DJ software so that you can record audio as well if you want to. We think that number 8 on our list, Magix Music Maker, is a perfect option for beginners as it is designed to be extremely user-friendly. Generally speaking, you get what you pay for, so if you can afford it, go for something proper that you won’t have to upgrade from any time soon. Price is also important to most people, so choose your DJ software where you feel like you’re getting good value for money. Do you need something that’s easy to start with for a beginner, or are you advanced and looking to get as many audio effects as possible? When deciding which software to start trying out, you need to consider what level you’re currently on. This is the best way to find out if a particular software is right for you. One great thing about most DJ software performance tool programs is that you can try it out for a couple of weeks before you have to pay for it. So, we’re going to answer some of the most common questions about DJ mixing software! What to Look for When Buying DJ Software? There are a few questions you might want answering, like which DJ software is good for beginners and what you should think about when choosing your software. ![]() We really hope that you managed to find a program from our list that will take you to the next level as a DJ.

Some of them are free and others cost money. If you master the basic program and feel like you want to take it to the next level, there are expansion packs that you can download. One great thing about this music production software is that the basic program is easy to use and pretty, well, basic, which can be really good if you’re just starting out as a DJ. It’s easy to add accurate rhythm effects and you can even tap the BPM (Beats per minute, meaning the tempo) manually so that you get it exactly like you want it. Serato DJ Pro makes it easy to apply effects to your different remix decks, and you can choose whether to use the same audio effects for all the remix decks or adapt them individually. The audio will go from left to right moving through this chain of effects and this is an excellent way to make your music come to life and sound really cool, plus the possibilities are close to endless. One way to use these audio effects is chaining, where you load several FX into one unit. FX stands for ‘effects’, and Serato can really brag about some really good effects for music production! We’re now going to have a look at Serato DJ FX Kit, which is a piece of software that is developed together with iZotope, which is a company that is amazing at what they do, which is audio technology. This also gives you an opportunity to compare the different software for yourself and see which one best suits your needs. ![]() If you find it impossible to choose your DJ software for music production, then why not try some of them for free before you commit?

Something that every DJ starting out realizes pretty quickly is that it’s not as easy as it looks. ![]() This new series, ideal for young fans and loyal readers alike, will explore the moments that make T'Challa who he is, from his adventurous upbringing to his walkabout as a teen where he meets the enchanting Ororo Munroe before she becomes the legendary Storm, to when he first invites the Fantastic Four into Wakanda!

I had the chance to speak exclusively to Sibylla Deen, who plays Tut’s half-sister and Queen Ankhe. But through unexpected twists and turns, Tut strives to overcome the odds, rising from a manipulated ruler into an unlikely hero who triumphs over his enemies, both from within and without, leading his kingdom to glory. And although Tut rules as Pharoah, he is exploited by a shrewd Grand Vizier, a ruthless military General and a scheming High Priest who look down on him as someone they can control. In love with a commoner, he struggles to protect her from the jealous queen. Thrust into power after the murder of his father, Tut is forced to marry his strong-willed, ambitious sister in order to maintain the dynasty. But is that true?
