This. Just because an llm can translate any language into a programming language doesn’t suddenly make all languages programming languages. Until I can ‘brew install englishc’ and so on, it’s not a f**ing programming…
The needle wiggles side-to-side and might collide with the groove next to it if two bass hits are poorly timed. I suppose the likelihood becomes greater with the more compact inner area? Also the high end sounds better…
> The crappy CDs were a result of dumping a phono mastering onto a CD without realizing that a CD player was not going to apply the RIAA curve. I don't believe this is the case. The RIAA curve is a very aggressive curve…
100%. If you can find a quality rip of the vinyl I'll take that for convenience (I have ~1000 vinyl records so I have my fill of that magic) but especially something from long ago transferred to CD in the 80's I'm going…
> Vinyl and casettes required pre-emphasis of highs to offset the limited high frequency response and noise of analog media. This is true of tape but not vinyl. High frequencies are difficult for vinyl and are better…
I'm not sure buying old vinyl helps all that much. The bass was cut from recordings so the needle would move less and not collide with the groove before it. Early CDs also lacked bass until trends changed. I would guess…
Being respectful and just being straight forward and direct are the same thing as long as you're not being an asshole while being straight forward and direct. I do agree that it can take extra mental energy to translate…
I've used both and Kotlin was a better overall experience for me. TypeScript has weird typing problems far more often due to the underlying runtime being dynamically typed.
> During high traffic times, this means you can literally never have a gap. It is legal to enter an intersection (i.e. cross the white line) when your light is not red. Therefore at least one car can turn left legally…
Stop the head thumping or any physical punitive action no matter how light. You might have to restrain her at some point but that's different. The only thing you're teaching with those actions is "violence solves…
I prefer the criteria "would a prehistoric person eat this?". Our bodies evolved with food you could pick off a plant and put in your mouth sometimes after applying heat. Or meat. This is "natural" food. Plenty of…
This is great advice. I've used Anki to memorize technical knowledge (not language) for ~10 years. Here are some additional points with some overlap: * Keep trying. If you're having a bad time with it it's because you…
Same situation with my hobby, making electronic music. While there are a ton of amazing tutorials for how to write music there are way more gear review videos with orders of magnitude more views. Its fun to shop for new…
Your reaction is akin to saying "all lives matter" in response to the Black Lives Matter movement. You can look up why it's wrong.
The downvote wasn't me but I'll agree that this doesn't seem much more related to the music than any visual synced to the tempo. Coltrane's drawing captures a system that could be used by other musicians to create new…
While I can get behind some of the points made in the articles you reference, for tech articles the date provides very important context. Imaging the shift in your thinking if this article was 10 years old. Little in…
See space.vim for another cool use for the spacebar. https://github.com/spiiph/vim-space
This is an absolutely fantastic plugin. The minor installation pain is paid back easily after a few hours of use. Fast, fuzzy matching autocomplete people!!
> Ok let’s get Command-T. Oh wait that’s incredibly slow and clunky and looks jenky Uh, what!? Command-T does much of its work in C to make it as fast as possible. I find it to be mind-numbingly fast. It is…
I've heard that one of the problem areas is that you can't make a perfect, colorless filter - one where 20KHz is allowed through but 20.001 is not. A filter has to slope down at least somewhat gradually. The more steep…
> I also don't completely understand about their being only one possible solution. It makes sense if you know that the signal is a single sine wave, but since in general the signal is a summation of an unknown…
> Band limiting means that there's a maximum frequency. You can think of it as a limit on how fast the signal can change. There's only one possible way to draw a curve that goes through all the points without…
Totally with you up until the lost culture thing. More people know how to play the piano virtuostically than ever. Culture is expanding and being recorded permanently in the digital world. How are we losing it? It…
Looks like it also explains why caret (^) was chosen in regex and vi to mean "beginning of line".
"If we really want to stop young men like him from becoming mass murderers, and prevent the small amount of violence attributable to mental illness, we should invest our resources in better screening for, and treatment…
