Fascinating to see this on HN! Crochet can be easy and fun, and is often very procedural/mathematical - in work like this there are building blocks that are chained together like function calls and loops. I wouldn't recommend st

Yes, I was disappointed. The original paper https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.22046 did look at chord progressions. They also trained a machine learning model to predict the next chord. Some of the chord progression data

They are questioning jancsika's assertion at the top of the thread that an interval can somehow contain more than two pitches: > An "interval" is the difference between two (or more) pitches.

Yes. The section itself says PDF differs significantly from PostScript. The required changes detailed there to transform a PDF to PostScript are substantial: add PostScript implementations of the PDF operators; extract and translate the p

A normal frame rate is probably enough if you do it with groups of columns rather than a single column of pixels. That's what https://trains.jo-m.ch/ does with a Raspberry Pi camera, posted in https://news.

That seems like saying "Python is basically a subset of C; just run the simple transformations Cython implements". PDF can be transformed into something a PostScript interpreter can understand in the same way Python can be transf
