    I'm also interested in this. How hard would it be to remember 440Hz and then just go up in your head, searching with octaves and then going up and down when close?

    Yes, it so wonderfully crafted, all things leading to the father scene. I was surprised to find out how low rated this movie is, because it's wonderful. I think this movie killed m…

    Lindy effect, stuff worth reading is stuff that has been filtered by time. Reading old books is worth it. New ones are hard to filter and many will turn out to be completely unnece…

    Just recently used xq to convert and clean up a bunch of weird xml files to JSON. It was such a breeze. I love how nested lists inside objects can expand into a particular one with…

    €45,000 does sound a bit low. I lived on €40,000 (after taxes, rent was only 8-10% of the yearly income) in Croatia and lived like a king (travelling, restaurants, buying stuff wit…

    I got hooked on chess because of Lichess. The interface is well done and it's so easy to play. Something about it feels much better than chess.com. Unfortunately, I got heavily add…

    There's absolutely no way these oil wells are leaking as much methane as Siberian plain slowly melting. I did a calculation a while ago and it ended up being equivalent to 125 year…
