The problem with spaced repetition is that sometimes the gap never gets bigger than a couple of days. I try to remember piano pieces by heart, but I basically have to play them every couple of days FOREVER or I'll forget them. If the g

Thank you. I played with unequal temperaments on my digital piano, but I couldn't hear any difference. I thought using a tuning in line with the piece I'm playing would bring out the harmonies more, but I couldn't hear a diff

I disagree. The Shure sounded like he was speaking, or whispering in my ear, depending on the output volume. This makes sense, as this was recorded from a distance of 10cm from his face. This made me wonder, apearantly I (I would say we, bu

The first hit he gets is a website plastered with ads. Boosting sales of ads is still a plausibele explanation. "But I bet it has something to do with the fact that all of the bikes they review are sold on Amazon and that every link us

Sometimes we keep the units though, and express strain in mm/mm. "The strain limit for S355 is about 0.02 mm/mm." A mathematician might eliminate them against each other, for a phycisist it's a reminder of what its

The meta game is like the bike shed. Everyone has an opinion about it. It is abstracted, full of analogies and therefore easy to talk about. It is the only way the experts can talk to the novices about the topic at hand. Note that the novic
