In 1995 there was no tabbing (I think?). I have 5+ browser windows with 100+ tabs open, so more like 500 browser windows, not 5.

I never said it's a problem. I asked what's the problem that "You can’t quite run it on [...] say, a guitar."

You probably do. I play two instruments (not guitar obviously) and I want to know why musical notation is a problem for guitarists. I know it's not really suited for e.g. non-western or modern quarter-tone music. But since I don't

I still don't see the point. If you practice a piece, you have to practice how to put which finger where, on a piano or a guitar. It's part of practicing to figure this out. > Of course, on top of that, you also have a wide ran

On a piano, musical notation doesn't tell you which finger or hand you should use. This seems similar. Just for clarification, I asked because GP said: > You can’t quite run it on different hardware: unlike on a piano, the note does

What are some troubles guitarists are having with musical notation?

It was popular to study fermentation, because nobody knew how it worked. Anton van Leeuwenhoek (the "inventor" of the microscope [0] around 1670) was the first person who saw yeast cells, but nobody knew what it was. In 1880s peop

Again, if you judge a wine, spirits and probably a dish you aren't looking for what you like, but for more objective criteria. Those criteria aren't measured with technology, but the tongue, nose and experience of the taster. I

First, it's okay if you enjoy some things and others don't. No critic says you have to enjoy what a "select group" (aka experts) thinks is good quality. Studying food is not different from studying music. Everyone can he

Eh, no wine maker adds TCA [0] into a wine bottle to make it taste like wet dogs. If you burn your sauce, that's probably an off-flavor. Smoked meat and cilantro taste like intended, no undesired flavors there. [0] https://e

I don't say it's really objective, I just say it's way less subjective than one might think. Cilantro is not an off-flavor per se, it's just a flavor you like or don't. A cork tainted wine is an off-flavor. But if y

There is a huge misconception that professional tasters are rating by their personal preferences. I can't really talk about restaurants, but about wine and spirits. As a taster, you don't look for things you personally enjoy. You

Liking the food != the food is good. Good taste is not so subjective as you think it is. Your personal preferences, yeah, I don't care about them. But every professional taster keep their personal preferences out of the game and look f

AFAIK sleep deprivation is discussed as a short term treatment of depression. I don't have any exclusive papers on hand (I'm not an expert), but if you are interested, please do your own research.

If we are talking about upgrading means a complete reimage, Valve probably doesn't push every minor upgrade, but bundles them together. Like what Manjaroo is doing.

Yeah, sure, you can always write raw SQL queries, but that has nothing to do with your ORM, does it? I was talking about ORMs in general, not about the programmer in particular. So yes, you are right that if you have enough engineering reso

by moehm 5y ago
Quite the contrary, ORMs in general are less performant. Using ORMs boils down to two things, convenience and the ability to switch the underlying RDBMS. (For example all the OSS which says you can choose between MySQL, Postgres or SQLite.)
