Isn't Suits - a long since lapsed cable series - like the most popular thing on Netflix? So was Friends, Seinfeld, and The Office for a time too. People love to think they can generalize all streamers into a bucket when in reality it&#

There are only so many chords, this means nothing. Songs can use the same chords and be totally unique.

This is such a tired argument. Even the "crap" back then had professional songwriters and musicians playing actual instruments with some semblance of artistry. Go listen to the global top 50 on Spotify and it's hard to even c

I deleted so much stuff from my old PCs due to disk space constraints at the time, and I wish so badly I had just bought another disk. It would be so great to still have some of that stuff, of not purely for historical record. You don'

Virtuoso does not mean "plays a lot of notes". Music isn't an olympiad. Paul is virtuosic in his creativity and originality, note choices, rhythms, tone, as well as playing many complex parts in relation to the rest of the so

You're confusing technical terms for common usage. Obviously the words still exist and may mean different things, George's point is about how the softer language is used in common life, sometimes nefariously. Keep reading the arti

It's even more frustrating on guitar where the literal same note in the same octave appears all over the fretboard. You have to figure out all the notes nearby to figure out what position you should be in. Even with years of experience

Actually Linus himself proclaimed it as a hobby that would never be big and professional: >I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones.

Apple Weather may be better, but DarkSky is gone and it has not included all the features it used to have, such as hourly rain probability for any day.

Ironically they portray Einstein as sort of out of touch with contemporary quantum physics in the movie and explain that as the reason he wasn't part of the Manhattan a project.
