Analog synthesis. Using MiRack on my iPad mostly. Yes, that is a digital emulation of analog circuits I know but it is a great learning environment. Trying to get my head around feedback patches and self sustaining/generating patches. Saw a few videos of a guy using a Serge system to explain ideas with Cybernetics and it has really piqued my interest. I currently own a Lyra 8 synth and it is teaching me… something ab…

Thank you for sharing this idea! Some time ago I was trying to learn Danish, and I found that audio description plus subtitles on netflix helps a lot with learning a new language. I will try your suggestion with German. Thank you!
Do you mean Danish audio description in Danish and English subtitles?
I am trying to learn Erlang. The idea is to write a CRUD app which is a multi-user PWA app completely without framework. For front end, HTML, CSS and JS with reefjs for reactivity (these are are things I already know). The idea is to experiment and stress test with the idea of write once run forever to the max. See how far can I get. Any resource for Erlang will be much appreciated. Currently using exercism and Joe's…
Rust. There's certainly a lot of interesting things happening with Rust but I'm one or two problems away from deciding that Rust isn't a viable replacement for the situations where I use C.
For me learning Rust isn't about "OMG this is my #forever-language", it's more about presenting me with a new way of thinking about and through problems. I code 99% in Python at my day job and when I made the effort/struggle to learn Clojure a few years ago it fundamentally altered how I think about problems. This is the same result I'm looking for from Rust. Basically just adding more tools to the mental toolbox.
How to resell things online. Got fed up with “software development” finally last year.
How is it going so far?
Avadhuta Gita - a treatise on the non-dual nature of reality and consciousness. The allegation is that - the boundary between the “I” and “else”, that the “I” so strongly attaches itself to, is an illusion. The other claim is that, with meditation, one can experience this truth and there is no greater joy.
Is there a translation you’d recommend for someone who’s experienced in non dual meditation, but not Buddhism itself?
Jazz Guitar, after spending years listening to jazz, decided to start down the path of learning to play it in my thirties. I already played some guitar, but over the past year, I've learned so many things about theory, chord construction, inversions, phrasing, time feel, and have been doing a concerted effort in improving my aural skills to lift other players' music by ear and transcribe their playing.
what resource have you used to learn?
I did find that the steps that I took to get to intermediate all helped immensely. Learning triad shapes all across the neck, learning all the notes in the neck. Learning the basics of theory for chord construction, and learning how to build chords in the guitar neck. Then focus on time and keeping a the forms of songs.
First-time founder here! I have always worked as a developer and have been building products for the past 6 years. But as a founder, you need to know GTM and growth for your product! Initially, we used to think that we could outsource, but we were so wrong! :D Hence, now learning it on our own. Happy to take help and suggestions, or if you are up for the discussion around growth, GTM and marketing.
Working my way up to calculus for the first time in my life, at nearly 40 years old. I've always hated math :( When I was a kid, they always told me math would be super useful, especially if I liked computers. Well, 20+ years of a dev career later, I still have never used anything more than basic arithmetic and rudimentary algebra (to calculate responsive component sizes). But with web dev jobs going the way of the h…
What resources are you using to learn calculus? I am on a similar boat
