#2I was not expecting the part where Fable produces a passable 3Blue1Brown-style explainer video of the algorithms it just implemented that sounds like it's narrated by a character from Dora the Explorer.
What a strange era we now live in.

#3Im building some music playback software and am currently struggling with the implementation of a spectrum analyzer to visualize the music.
This is incredible stuff and I learned a lot. Well done sir.
Ps, also mourning the loss of Fable! It sorted out a 3 month bug hunt odyssey in 3 days. For a somewhat novel problem in a pretty niche area (DSD DoP audio crackle problems during certain playback edge cases).

#4> As we all know, the foundation of Western diatonic music theory is ¹²√2, the ratio between the frequencies of successive semitones.
Nods knowingly. Yes, of course. I definitely know this.

#5That was my experience with Fable as well. Pulled my extremely complex project that I could squint and see was possible, but actually put mathematical concreteness to things in a way I could only intuit.
On the flip side, visualizers have always fascinated me. I love this one, but one build off I've always wanted to see: analyze the entire file a priori, and then generate the visuals. Sort of like a normalization pass, but getting longer form structures decoded ahead of time could be pretty neat.

You mean what a strange era an opaque set of administration-approved companies live in...

Relevant YouTube video about content farming channels creating AI generated math explainers.

#8Kinda interesting how its just like a FFT chart in a circle but perhaps the author is not aware that is the case. Would be curious to know what things were "implmentation details" for the fancy AI and what wasn't.
I could be wrong but milkdrop already would do light FFT analysis for effects right?

In a nutshell:
An octave (for example from a C to the next C) is a doubling in frequency. In the Western diatonic system, there are 12 notes per octave. (C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, B). Notes are "evenly spaced" within the octave - every note has the same ratio between its frequency and the frequency of the next note. Hence, that ratio is ¹²√2

#10> steady stream of promotions until they cap out at L5
Am I missing a joke? L5 is just a single promotion away from hiring-out-of-college, at least for the FAANG that I was at.
