While it can be a good idea to supplement with material like the links you provided, at the end of the day you have to understand and internalize the canonical approach to music 'theory'. Why? Because the main point of it all is t

I think there is an argument to be made here that prescribing medication might be treating the symptoms but not the root causes, which will lead the patient to ignore the root causes, leading to worse outcomes in the long run while an impro

SA for your own life sounds intriguing. Do you have a concrete example that elucidates how this could be implemented? The concept still seems a little slippery to me.

How has turning to God changed your life? Did it change what you do or how you view the things you do? In other words, would your life look the same to an outside observer but there has been an internal shift in your mind?

In my experience with a fairly recent and expensive set of bluetooth headphones (Sennheiser Momentum 3), it works well most of the time, but in 5% of cases it does not. If you use your headphones a lot, those 5% get annoying very quickly. S

My hunch is that Anki is mostly useful for stopping you from forgetting things you have already learned. The actual learning is better done outside of Anki.

Note that Jülich was not exactly a typical nuclear power plant: it was a prototype pebble bed reactor linked to a research facility.

I once tried supplementing magnesium while in the midst of moderate depression. Interestingly enough, the effect was not relief, but rather major, absolutely crushing depression (i.e. cannot get out of bed all day depression). I went back t

I live in Germany. I can only see German-language podcasts in the app. If I want to see podcasts in English, I need to switch my whole iTunes account to a different country. Of course, that creates problems elsewhere. I mean, come on. Most

I think part of the answer might be that Germans invest much less than most other nationalities. They do save, but in times of practically non-existent interest rates, that does not get you very far.

Not French, but German here. TANs are obviously used for transactions, but I've never seen them used for login purposes. To add insult to injury, the _only_ permissible password length for my bank was 5 (five!) characters. Looking to m

I think the point is: the problem might be more deep-seated than capitalism. If it were not possible to find this problem in any other societal system, then you could make a convincing argument that it might be exclusive to capitalism. But

It seems that all these points assume naturally unlimited and indefinite population growth, but it is projected that the world population will reach a certain point and then level off (see https://ourworldindata.org/world-po

While I agree with you about the complexity of the issue, it doesn't seem fair to compare local meat to imported plants. What about local meat vs local plants? Local plants vs imported meat? Imported meat vs imported plants? By cherry-

There is a difference between east and west Germany, but not specifically between the Länder. In 2009 you would have gotten (before deductions) ~34873 in the east and ~37852 in the west. In 2018 it is ~45863 in the east and ~45900 in the we

Your sensitivity intuition is a fantastic way to remember it. I had to look it up myself, but hopefully this will finally make it stick :)

You labelled both TPR and TNR as "specificity". True positive rate should be sensitivity.

Without having more details, I generally wouldn't say one would feel Schadenfreude in your example. Now, if your acquaintance is obnoxious or is putting everyone down for not being able to afford their dream vacations, then yes, Schade

You'll also have a hard time really internalizing vocabulary. If you're learning Dutch and you already speak English and German, you can quickly get to a level where you are able to read Dutch texts. This is because half of all Du

Not just to Americans. I'm an expat in the Netherlands and interact with lots of people who came here from various different countries. It's bizarre to everyone. Seems like there are two options. (1) You can do it the Dutch way, i

I would argue that in a signal (1D) you can expect some sort of relationship between consecutive elements. In an image (in essence a 2D signal), you can expect a relationship between consecutive elements not just on the horizontal, but also

Definitely, but the author is still right to point out that black people are overrepresented in the sample. You could argue that there is still a gap between black and white Americans in terms of education, wealth, etc., and IQ is partially

I imagine only training on genuine visitors would be tricky with any traditional classification approach. Even having a 90/10% split of positive/negative training data is difficult since a lot of classifiers will just degrade to a
