People are still "making it", whatever that means. But, yeah. Welcome to the reality of 90% of all musicians, actors, artists, entrepreneurs out there.

I don't see where I said that I endorsed this state of affairs. I would love it if people who make music could make a living off it with less of a struggle. I'm just pointing out the fact that they don't, today. Somehow, there's still music

I'm not describing the world that I want . I'm describing what I think is what is happening. At the same time, I don't think you can say that we'll only get Rebecca Black in the future, you can't know that. Mozart had a lot of factors play

I think you are absolutely wrong about this. You might be correct when it comes to mid- to low level professional music/software. But the threshold to producing and releasing music and software is getting lower all the time. These days, kid

Aha, that almost makes sense. You're saying "add 2" might mean a component that exposes two methods. Not sure what exactly he is demonstrating there, actually. I mean, here's a DLL written in C that exposes the same two methods (although no

I certainly agree with the skepticism in regards to some aspects of string theory, and my impression is that skepticism is widely held. However, I don't think your interpretation of the extra dimensions of string theory is correct when you

I didn't mean to dismiss your question, it's a reasonable one to ask. The reason for considering this theory interesting is because it is at least nominally a scientific theory, whereas a God theory is not a scientific theory and thus not i

God omnipresence fits in the 'single electron' theory only if God is an electron, an electron being a subatomic particle with a negative charge. I suppose that is fine if that's what you mean by God, but none of the usual connotations or im

I don't understand how there can be so many posts here defending this UI. Is this a concerted effort by Microsoft to flood hacker news with their viewpoint? I just don't see how this is a defensible UI, at all. Seriously, it's overwhelming.

The key issue is that the advance from the label is neither a gift nor an investment; it's a straight up loan (most likely with interest) that is expected to be paid back, but the loan terms are horrendous. I get the feeling you think that

A similar idea to the linked text file (not to roll.io itself) is http://www.tuneset.com/ (disclosure: made by a friend of mine). roll.io is awesome though. Just making and sharing lists of talks broken up in several videos, things like t

This looks great, but isn't this pretty much what Microsoft always does - they decide that a particular technology or feature is THE feature, and they go way, way too far with it. The thing I am thinking of is when they decided that the int

14nm is pretty amazing. To think that technology built at this scale is part of consumer electronics (and even, cheap) is pretty staggering. For reference (from wikipedia): 2 nm — diameter of DNA helix 20 nm — width of bacterial flagellum

This is pure guesswork (I am not he) but given that he's happy with go, perhaps he likes the style of programming that go promotes? It's not OO, it's not FP. More like evolved procedural programming, I guess.

I can't tell what point you are trying to make. Is this a convoluted argument for censorship? Are you claiming that there is a direct link between the content of media and the behavior of people? That's a pretty big claim, if so. If not, th

Also, from the photos of the stricken areas that I've seen; what are you going to loot? Everything is destroyed, there is no way to get around, there are rescue teams working around the clock. It's not a situation where houses were flooded

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Just because there are no news reports about looting doesn't mean it's not going on. The social difference may be in how news are reported, not in how people cope with disaster. I'm not saying

That's basically the questions that music theory answers. As far as I understand things, it mostly relate to frequencies and harmonic resonance. The octaves are exact multiples of the same frequency (so a higher octave is 2x the frequency o
