All this fluff about a "major" scale and its "modes" when we could just say "2741" and derive other relationships from rotating bits and a few other simple relationships.
Everything else, like the "subjective feeling of a Persian Scale" is just quackery. It's just someone who doesn't understand numbers making up nonsense words.

- lainga 8y agoactually nothing more HN than expressing doubt or disagreement by demanding credentials out of someone

- fenomas 8y agoThis is equivalent to saying "visual art is just basic arithmetic" because you found out that the relationships between colors can be described with bit operations on their RGB values.
- braythwayt 8y agoLeaving out the sarcasm tags is also equivalent to expecting that your code is so obvious that it doesn't need any comments.
