It's possible that is true, or partially so. The strength, speed and pace of play of HS and NCAA is vastly different than the professional level. For any given sport, the any given team is made up of a analogs of the best player in you

If you want to nil pun like that, it's not difficult to do it where necessary. (some-> nil :foo) (some-> nil int) Of course this fails if your nil is actually a string, but that's a different issue.

Sure, but thats not the only contingent of context. Location, piece, player, specific instrument, time of year etc... I'm in no way saying that this means a specific instrument is better, but specifically that we can't draw that c

I find your response somewhat strange. I'm saying that context matters, and your response is that... context matters? It would appear that I'm being misread to defend a specific instrument. I'm saying that there's more v

These studies are flawed in ways that every experienced musician recognizes they are: context. It's _common_ that instruments that sound amazing in a solo context will sound poor in a larger ensemble, or might sound great in one ensemb

Did you talk to your boss about this? If not, then you somehow avoided the precise thing that you needed to proactively do.

I think those are low-hanging fruits. I write in CL and Clojure and feel similar. It's a matter of how easy it is to reason about complexity, typing is just a method of dealing with it.

I don't think this is necessarily true. Analogies are useful to help build bridges when two parties have differing corpuses of knowledge. If I want to discuss the merits of different woods in cavaquinho construction with someone that&#

You say it isn't hard, but I have 2 graduate degrees and didn't understand your explanation at all. "Hard" is relative to prerequisite knowledge, which can vary significantly.

Hah! I use methamphetamine (desoxyn) to function! Some irony there in complaining about the stigmatizing of a drug with high abuse potential then immediately stereotyping another.

The major issue here is that the sensitization of priors can be a marketing ploy. It's very easy to "make guesses" that present your conclusion, throw in a paltry amount of money, then make bank off the publicity. This possib

While many companies support LARGE open source projects by supplying dev time, I'm glad to see this sort of corporate monetary support that helps developers pay for dinner. This appears to be a great side effect of Cognitect joining Nu
