Afaik there wasn't a single widely accepted standard in the Baroque era, but rather different places had different tunings, with the "normal A" varying roughly between 400 and 500 Hz.
But what if Tony the Pony comes?
An important tenet of modern education is that true knowledge is that which the learner (re)constructs in their mind. Heuristic learning (i.e. "trying to figure things out") is often a great way to do this.
>For classical students, theory doesn't really start until college. Well, unless, you are studying here in Hungary, for example, where it starts pretty much right away... (though it is a separate class).
"Normie" and "happens to own one or two extra homes" seem a bit contradictory to me... And doesn't everyone who invests in something that makes them money exploit economic conditions?
How does one become a "student of floating point math idiosyncracies"?
Oooh, I really liked ToriBash! I didn't play for very long for whatever reason, but I did think it was a creative and fun game.
Someone said in another comment, that it makes more sense together with the dereference operator, so int *var means: "dereferencing var gets you an int." I don't really know C, but personally prefer your version.…
This is also well known here in Hungary, there was even movie about it. It's called "unokázás"; literally: "grandchilding".
A somewhat more depressing take: "There comes a time in everyone's life when you look into the mirror and realize that what you see is all that you'll ever be. And you accept that fact - or you kill yourself. Or you…
You have made an interesting point but I think your arguments would have more force if you exercised some restraint in categorically stating your opinions about what is wrong and in what way as facts, basically. Anyway,…
As someone with little financial knowledge, I'm curious why that is the case and how those estimates are calculated. I've seen stores offering a discount on cash payments, citing card-related fees as the reason.
Hi, when you say you don't know which fingers to move do you mean within the context of a piece of music, or just the scales themselves? For the latter, I can give you some advice (though if you search something like…

Obviously, the worst song of all time is "The Most Unwanted Song" by Dave Soldier.
Yes, I'm Hungarian, and I'm not even mad (pun intended) about "mad" matching "madzag". I find that we ourselves sometimes conflate characters and letters, so many people's first thought would be that "madzag" is six…
I've been binging Branch Education the last week or so, and I concur that the videos are exceptionally well made. Some commenters noticed one or two mistakes in some of them, but nothing major.
I've encountered an old safe which required two keys to open, one of them turning the "wrong way" - perhaps it's an attempt to slow down a possible burglar by making it "surprising"?
Maybe a billion-dollar company has more money to spend on lawsuits than artists do? Doesn't make them the good guys, but I'm not surprised that it's them doing it.
"Please place the Aperture Science Weighted Storage Cube on the Aperture Science Super-colliding Super-button".
Addendum: some orchestras tune to a slightly different A (442 Hz is common I think), and the oboe player often gives a B-flat as well for those instruments where that's more natural.
Nanomachines, son.
