Yeah, I'd be tired of this conversation if it didn't affect my work. Daily.

As an enthusiast of the promise of bitcoin, the best thing that that community did was to separate itself from crypto.

I understand the words you are saying, but struggling to make sense of what you are trying to say. We're talking in this thread about learning a native accent in a second language. I do the same when I am learning Hungarian, as the pho

You know that people studying a second language often study native pronunciation, right? Thats just standard curricula for language acquisition. Youre fishing for racism where theres none.

This is true if you that assume the only purpose of design is aesthetic differentiation. There actually is a lot of science in how you scan information in a design, how it's presented, the visual hierarchy, grouping and things that act

Would you care to elaborate on what you mean with concert fatigue? I've never heard of it and you're talking about it as though it's something that is so common, it is implied to be known.

Is it just me or is this really bad copy? The only clue as to what this is on the landing page is the background of the product image. And I also have to sign up to find out anything else about it.

You can develop the ear. Start simpler. Try nursery rhymes.

The interesting thing that is not obvious to the general public (it certainly wasn't to me when I started) is that unless there is a medical condition that is extremel rare called cogential amusia, you can develop the skill. It's

The prerequisite to starting is having a working instrument (roughly) in tune. Then you can start. If you don't know absolutely anything at all, then it wouldn't be so bad to learn some things in parallel to learning by ear, such

It wouldn't hurt to know how to do the 'cowboy chords' and then the 'barre chords' before (or in parallel to) doing the transcriptions. Anyway, you should start with easy songs that mostly just include those until t

> "Keys" and "note names" literally only come up on the guitar when playing open strings. That is a false statement and stated boldly. While it is possible to not know the note names, it is such a simple thing that ta

In terms of output, it's comparable. In terms of workflow, it suits my needs a lot more as a VIM terminal user.

And think about it. EVERY SINGLE person that died before 2015 never wore an apple watch. Coincidence? I dont think so.

You literally have it backwards. It's the bosses that are pulling engineers aside and requiring adoption of a tooling that they're not even sure justifies the increase in productivity versus the cost of setting up the new workflow

That's roughly aligned with my thinking. Make it a CLI. And if there's a lot of configuration that you can pass to it, have an option for rendering those options as a TUI.

After that, AI companies where there's no human hiring AI agents. After that AI consumers to keep the economy going for AI companies. After that AI governments, after that...

Until we solve agent consumers that become the backstop of the economic engine when we all get unemployed, who are these agents working for?

I agree, it's not exclusive.

Are you a nihilist? Is there nothing sacred to you about the miracle of life that causes wonder? It's important for its own sake.

Yeah id argue that all existence is equally sacred. But consciousness is where that is manifest most visibly.

by javier123454321 8mo ago
I guess there is people that are willing to die over the hill that there is nothing sacred or divine about being alive. I'm not very interested in playing that game.

I wish you happiness.

Being alive is divine. It doesn't matter if you understand it or not. It's a beautiful thing to have a consciousness in this world, and to have the ability to create, to love. It takes a huge intellectual effort to try to trick yo
