Also most things worth arguing over fall somewhere in the middle, and won’t have an absolute right answer. It sounds like the author has learned something important though.

Seriously! Every music theory blog post and video is like this. They're going to explain something like modes or maybe altered dominant scales, and they start out explaining interv…

I guess the low B should be about 31Hz

"But you yada yadaed over the best part." "No I mentioned the bisque."

Exactly! Also, that random ride across the bridge towards Marin is taking forever

I like moving over for motorcycles. It's a little thing, but costs me nothing and is totally available as a recognition. Maybe it's like saying, "I see you." I had wondered if it w…

Disable silent mode.

I can add a bit of information to what might be behind this bug. In MIDI, there are NOTE_ON and NOTE_OFF events, for when you press and release each key. The NOTE_ON has pitch and …

This error can be made for calculating the length of any curve. If you add the deltas in only one dimension, then you end up with a bounding box length measurement that doesn't fol…

These are neat! I guess you have to be comfortable with geometric proofs for them to really pop as obvious visual proofs, and certainly Archimedes was. I would have just started su…

> that’s why CD music had a sample rate of 22000 Hz. Modern sound cards however tend to use sampling rates twice as high - 44100 Hz or 48000 Hz or even 96000 Hz. Not exactly the po…

Am I the only one thinking that "Cagey News" sounds like anti-marketing?

I've noticed this with movies. If a movie is being advertised a lot, it's usually a bad movie. Why else are they trying so hard? The opposite happened with the Matrix. I think I sa…

Ah hah, this is what I think. LLMs are the ultimate bullshitting machines! When you need to produce some BS fast, an LLM is definitely the right tool for that job.

For me it's 1:1. I read aloud in my head at the same pace that I speak. It seems slow, but little by little I get through what I need. Also, I don't know how to do it another way. …

Oh that’s interesting. I can see your point. I guess it’s a bit ambiguous and can mean either thing. As the other responder mentioned, the backwards construction in the original so…

All three read the same to my own grammatical understanding.

Dukas should get a mention alongside Disney. Paul Dukes wrote the symphonic poem L’Apprenti Sorcier (1897) based on Goethe’s poem, which was later animated by Disney for the film F…

The mammoths are walking over some pre-existing footprints, but they don't leave any prints of their own. I guess I'm getting hung up on little things. For a prompt of a few words,…

> He would say it is E7b10 because that g natural is coming from the minor modes so it’s actually the fourth degree which has been flattened. I'm guessing you mean Emin7b10. It's i…

Yes! There must be millions of Finale files out there that will otherwise become unreadable.

Oh no! I'll need to get to work converting all those old Finale files to MusicXML or something. Hopefully they will release a tool for viewing and converting Finale files beyond th…
