I implemented the McLeod NSDF pitch method, which normalizes the autocorrelation to get a pretty reliable estimate with fewer octave jumps. For precise tuning I used phase tracking between successive single-bin DFTs tuned to the target freq

For me it's hard because of tempered tuning, so each string should be slightly out of tune for everything to sound good. If I tuned by ear, I could get two open strings to match, but all the fretted notes and chords wouldn't sound

Honestly, I don't know, translated it would be stomach alignment, it was popularized by a traditional healer and herbalist nun who lived in Bosnia.

It's all in the details, eg. in sublime if you use the goto panel and highlight a file it will immediately show a preview, in zed you have to click on it, so you lose the snappy feeling.

It's a specific alternative therapy, a traditional practice associated with adjusting or repositioning the stomach in folk healing. The woman who performed this on me is a physiotherapist.

Sounded like alternative medicine, but it was supposedly centering my stomach or adjusting the intestines to be in their optimal place, e.g. some people have organ displacement, the stomach is too low or too high, and somehow that affects d

Not related to beans, but I had serious issues with bloating, gas and bad smell comparable to sewage. It went on for years until I had a short massage to adjust my stomach, the lady was pushing and shifting things around. This was a few mon

It's now possible to carry a spare battery or two, instead of lugging a portable power bank and slowly charging your phone. This is great news for outdoorsy types, travel, long bicycle rides, hiking, and so on.

Some people are just too stubborn, especially if they come from a place of authority and seniority. I'm doing house repair work right now with an older relative. He learned how to do repairs and renovations by himself, things like work

I was the yielding type, not speaking up, letting others take charge. In my experience, it's not always worth it, especially if you care about the thing you are working on. I went so far as to just dissociate from everything and distan

That's a valid concern. I've seen some hard to grok hooks with polling, async stuff, hard to follow logic, etc. Like with anything, need to have taste, it's easy to dump too much into one hook and like you mention, it gets ha

It's not just react query, you can make a quick useFetch and useMutation hooks (or claude can), it's not that complex. If you don't need more advanced features (eg caching), you can easily cut down on 3rd party dependencies.

Sorry for being pedantic, but the first example could be rewritten to extract the pattern into a higher level hook, eg useNotifications. One way to simplify components before reaching for store libraries. The reusable hook now contains all

It's not just that you need to get used to gestures, it's that they are not discoverable at all, and that they can be awkward to perform with mobility issues, old hands, short fingers, etc. It's easy to make the wrong gesture

Sometimes I want to strike up a conversation but get no reaction or even a dismissive glance and get ignored. It feels like the universe has a script and I went off track.

First, there should be maps and plans for all mine fields to know the exact position. But this war was insidious, and mines were planted without any method.
