Many of the responses to this comment imply that this is something fundamentally different than perfect pitch and give it some different name ("pseudo absolute pitch", "perfect relative pitch", etc.). While I concede…
"A good ear" and grasp of music theory go hand in hand. Strongly disagree that the latter is limited to classical music. The best musicians in jazz and pop music absolutely know how to incorporate the circle of fifths,…
The exemptions were very imperfect. Even if musicians and certain types of performers were exempted, this legislation has had an enormous effect on theater organizations, for example, especially at the semi-professional…
I call it “crying wolf in reverse” Isn't that just normal "crying wolf"?
The borrower semantics is anything but simple. I keep seeing people saying this when discussing Rust in relation to C++. It's not untrue, but I would counter by saying that people who were writing C++ without having a…
I also work in the resource-constrained / embedded native space and have had to work within the kinds of constraints you're describing. I think you're severely misunderstanding what the comment you're responding to is…
Having a large body of existing packages would be nice, but if this can be used with a private repository, it's be hugely valuable to me even if it had no open source packages available at all. I work in a corporate…
What a lot of people miss about the utility of Venmo is that it lowers the social cost of squaring up minor debts. Think of the example of a large group of friends often gathers in arbitrary subsets of the group to go…
Works well unless: - the restaurant doesn't do separate checks for large groups - friends ordered meals with significant variance in case, and the server wasn't initially told to keep items separated - you want to split…
