> People in the West do not utilize societal shaming enough I feel,

Critical point. Only when people start to think about this topic, they'll realize that shaming was invented for a reason, and a great reason: it works. It kept order into civilizations for millennia.

Yup, she makes great examples without sacrificing accuracy.
Get a camera kit to connect the controller to the iPad. Depending on the controller, you may may need a powered usb hub - M-Audio keystation is low power, but Akai Mini needs more than the iPad will put out, for example.

I like the BeatMaker3 program, as it is good as a looper for a backing track, as well as being a host for Audio Units.

Lorentz is a nice analog emulator (similar to Juno 106), KQ Dixie a SysEx compatible DX7 emulator , and bs-16i a soundfont rompler.

Later you can get other instruments and additional effects, but I think those are a good starter kit. Also, the Yamaha home PSR keyboards, even the $200 ones, transfer audio as well as MIDI over USB, so you might look at one of those.

As others have pointed out, learn some music basics, such as what a I IV V vi (or i iv v VI) chord progression is, as well as major vs minor keys / scales / modes and such.

There are already many companies (including all the ones you listed) that would love nothing more to monopolize / take over the industry. There really are not that many companies that can match the cult like following that Apple or Tesla do.

And it seems the piece was announced (first incorrectly, then correctly – or the other way round depending on the view) while the pianist and conductor were waiting backstage. So the pianist was aware of the different piece even before he stepped on stage:

> Democracy doesn't require a lot of parties, it requires that the people actually have the power to elect someone in charge.

No, this problem has been studied and democracy (that is, rule by the people) empirically requires an electoral system that had the capacity to support multiple competitive parties; to the extent systems artificially limit the option space they produce results that are not representative of the will of the people.
1. The Brits were never going to surrender. The Germans had no capacity to invade the UK's Home Islands. They completely lacked the necessary amphibious shipping to carry an invasion force, nor could they deal with the Royal Navy.

2. The German endgame was always conquest in the East, so even if the Brits DID throw in the towel the conflict wouldn't have ended. On the Eastern Front, the Germans were overstretching their offensive capabilities and logistics barely 6 months into the war (hence why they failed to take Moscow). Pivoting additional forces freed up from containing the British Empire wouldn't have helped Germany's logistical problems, so they wouldn't have forced a surrender on the Soviets like they wanted in any circumstance.

I'm glad that US is pressing in this. Five years since Crimea happened, it's still cut off Russia in terms of business – all the major companies won't touch it with a ten-feet pole exactly because of sanctions. It's a sad state of affairs for people who still live there, but a good precedent for the world peace, showing that this annexation will not be normalized.

> given the size and budget of CERN, it's probably cheaper for them to develop things in house

It's not just their size, it's that they're doing something that no one has done before. When you're building a me too product or even a version 2 of something, maybe buying makes sense. But when you're doing something for the first time, and you're not even sure what will work (e.g., CERN), by definition it's impossible to buy. If you could buy it, someone's already built it.

Generally, the more uncertainty around the business model and potential solutions, the stronger the case for building. Conversely, sometimes the larger and more bureaucratic the institution, leads to slower iterations and experiments. Because of these two seemingly contradictory points, when a large company wants to do something unknown and relatively uncertain, they buy an entire company, provide them resources, but try no to interfere too much (see, e.g., GM buying Cruise).
So should you estimate bugs?

No, but I'm suggesting it's not a bad idea to use it on Windows. That way if there's ever an improvement made to it (imagine better hardware support or something coming along someday), you'd get it automatically.
Ooh boy, great to see this discussion. If anyone's interested, https://progression.fyi has a bunch more of these to compare and contrast (I'm adding Square's to it right now...)

As you'll see, lots of companies reinvent the wheel with this stuff. It feels fundamentally misaligned to me while these rubrics are solely owned by each employer – personally, I care about my growth across a career, not just a single job.

If this was measurable and transferrable in the same way as – say – learning a language (e.g, I can take my Go experience somewhere else) it would be far more compelling to me as an employee.

The question is: how many companies are willing to 'share' levels and expectations to facilitate this?
Agreed - the title of "Anxiety nightmare" also isn't accurate based on the actual story they outline.

I know that clickbait sells and all, but even "Wrong song played for pianist..." would be better and mostly accurate.

You are ignoring google news, where they effectively run their own editing by selecting the articles at the top, and also what comes back as the first page of result when you type “joe biden thinks” for instance. I’d say they have at least the same political influence.

Particularly given that never mind what their reported engagement numbers say, I only know people who stopped using facebook around me. I just don’t believe their numbers.

At my last company, I went through three managers in the 3 years I was there. The last guy in there, I was comfortable enough in my position to make a statement. At the time, I was getting into the office around 10 and leaving at 3 or 4, basically whenever I felt like it.

The first few days, I stayed until a couple minutes after he left, to let him know I supported him. Then one day, I walked out with him. He looked at me and said, "but you got in at 10." I looked right back at him and said, "I know. I stayed late the last few days in case you needed me." Then it was back to old habits.

He was going to need all the help he could get to manage the political situation. In the end he couldn't cut the knot, he left not long after I did.
Depends of your culture. By the comments here and my experience hair as a symbol seems relatively important in the US, but maybe that’s due to heavy marketing from pharma companies. Some other countries have preferences for short or very short hair[1].

Also regarding attractiveness don’t be fooled, it’s marginal compared to being in good shape and how you behave.

Thus assertion makes no sense. Headers only declare interfaces, and you only require headers-only libraries if you're deep in template and template metaprogramming land. Evenso it's quite trivial to package and distribute those libraries just like any other library

Good news, but expect an uptick in human spam calls. Outright forbidding marketing calls would be the true solution.
I think it's social media combined with accessibility.

It used to be that you might find a nice secluded place because a family member or friend went there and told you about it or showed you by sending you a physical photo in the mail or showing you a photo album. The exposure might be counted in the tens. It would then be a substantial financial endeavour to go visit that place.

Today, all it takes is one "influencer" to find something new and within a week it's seen by tens of thousands to millions of people, many of whom can afford to visit it if they wish.
> That sounds like a lame excuse

I didn't mean to excuse this behavior, what they are doing is certainly not good. My point is only that in their desire to photograph, there must be some level of appreciation for it, and it would be more productive to develop that appreciation than shut everything down.

As a simple example, the next farmer that gets instagram-mobbed, rather than putting up a "No Trespassing" sign, could instead put up a sign at the front of the property asking visitors to "come to the porch, say hello, and learn about farming". Many of the people who trekked all the way out to a farm to photograph it, will likely take the extra few minutes to get a deeper understanding. The farmer will maintain (or improve) her dignity, and maybe the instagramer will learn something new.

I'm just saying there are better potential solutions than mocking and distancing yourself from a group of people, you can bring yourself closer together.

I'm studying universal needs for life to thrive. My intuition tells me this proof may imply some things about the question "Are all your needs met?"

I'll have to reread the paper a couple more times, but I think Boolean sensitivity could be related to the security one has around any given need. There may be further implications around how to assess one's strategies for meeting needs, as those would be the individual inputs to the Boolean function of "Is the need for _____ security met?" This could help provide a theoretical framework for designing systems oriented around well-being.
Instagram, Facebook, and other social media act as behavioural feedback loops.

We're literally talking about behavioural modification here. FB + INSTA may not make people assholes, but they certainly reward certain classes of asshole behaviour.

They're not unique in that, but other asshole-promoting loop systems have been around far longer, so we tend to assume they're how things are rather than questioning them.

Which is why "This too shall pass" may not be a valid assumption.

Large acquisitions can be handled like antitrust cases, but small acquisitions include "acqui-hires", pulling in cliques of friends one by one, and for all practical purposes hiring individual employees.

Besides, monopolies have to be regulated and/or broken up, to stop the damage they are doing right now, not merely restricted from further growth by subjecting them to sportsmanlike handicaps.
A couple of years ago I felt the same way. The first major annoyance I had was the constant flow of 'breaking news'.

I uninstalled my news apps, and instead I actively browse to a news site whenever I want to read the news. In the years following more apps got uninstalled, and I down scaled my phone contract.

Nowadays I never use mobile data, and my WiFi I always off. It became a habit to always actively get my information. So if I want to check my whatsapp messages, I sit down, turn WiFi on, read messages, and turn it off.

I don't even think about it anymore, it's the normal way of handling my phone for years now. This week I read people on average take between 2 and 3 hours a DAY on there phones. That sounds like alien to me, just can't imagine.

Sometimes I wonder why projects are either "single header only" or tens to hundreds of separate modules. One header and one source module would be a nice compromise regarding compile time vs. ease of use.

Yes, I realize that some header only libraries support using the header as either header or implementation, but this still blows up compile time.

this article is bias, google is removing dangerous sites that spread lies and misinformation.

being pro vaccine is the scientific standard, only people who believe in conspiracy will subscribe to these ideas.

example;

"that could be an act of EVIL if it finally turns out that there is truth in the arguments that the current vaccine schedule is severely miss-reporting the cases of brain damage and death caused by adverse reactions."

this is such a ridiculous argument, "if it finally..there is truth" basically admits to lack of evidence/cherry picking.

not only that, the whole point about "severely miss-reporting the cases of brain damage and death caused by adverse reactions." is such a blatant lie, vaccines are seriously one of the most studied things we do, and there is no evidence of vaccines causing brain damage, expect when the person faints and the fall leads to damage.

> gay men are trying to attract men, and men care a lot about (the other person's) appearance

Even if this is true today, I'm not sure it's anything more than a modern day social trend. Why should men care more about appearance than women? On a "selfish gene" level, in choosing a mate, both sexes should mostly care about passing on their genetic material. Appearance certainly can be a factor in that decision, but it's only one of many (e.g., responsibility, trustworthiness, work ethic, etc.).

If in today's society, men do care more about appearances than women, I strongly suspect that is a function of the structure of our society itself than anything genetic or innate.

One could easily imagine a society where gay men care less about appearances than straight men.

> I bet the compile times would improve if it wasn't header only.

If any hypothetical compilation time problem concerns you then rest assure that C++ enables you to develop submodules that wrap and instantiate your templates, eliminating the need to recompile them every single build.
On the other hand it requires a C compiler, so it's definitely heavier than a pure go application
