Not excusing the footgun but I'm honestly amazed you could get an Apple rep to help you with notes syncing, let alone recover them. And they helped even if it seems like it was your own fault! My employer pays (a lot) for Google produc

VIM but particularly Emacs can get painfully slow on semi-large files (and forget about it if you have very long lines) and you have to tweak or disable lots of features if you want them to be reactive and not peg your CPU. So I think it&#x

Learning by ear can be more fun and is easier to some. It is indeed a more natural process; hear something -> replicate it. But, unless you're just playing alone or jamming with friends, not being able to read sheet music is a real
