Music is another way of storytelling. It does have lot of conventions, yet it still needs to have an ability to lead and tell.

Each piece could be seen as many stories and as performer you can choose your story, then try to tell it. Classical pieces obviously have a canonical version which is what most audience would expect. Still, when learning such piece the story still needs to be there, not just as a sequence of prescribed pianos, fortes, and ritenuntos, but as a moving flow to capture interest and convey some relatable image.

I guess the classical training also can equip performers with such imagery. I have grateful memories of teachers that tried to project a story into our kid-minds before delving into technical aspects of learning a new piece. Very inspiring times.

You roll your own build system instead of using the built-in tools and you don't understand why people wouldn't want to do that? This isn't a typical situation in Rust or even Haskell these days. Come on.

Rarely are people arguing that a situation like this makes writing software impossible. The question is whether it adds friction, and in adding friction impedes adoption. I think it clearly does, and that tooling is one of the highest-impact features a language can prioritize to improve adoption. If the story for building and packaging OCaml software is "go make yourself proficient in the C build tooling ecosystem first," of course that makes it harder to adopt (and you're not the first person in the community to give this answer, either). This hostility to beginners is one of the major things that irks me about the OCaml community, and OCaml is probably my favorite language.

Firstly you should have some sort of signaling to people interested in working with you that you know what you're talking about.

So ideally a portfolio site with some blog posts in your area of expertise. These are often very very beneficial.

In terms of finding work, firstly be sure to post every month in the hacker news freelancer/seeking freelancer threads! It's very helpful and how I got started.

Secondly, find larger consulting shops and cold emailing them asking if they have extra work. It's also worked for me.

Keep trying, don't give up, and it WILL come. Good luck.

> Think of a Bach fugue whose middle voice sometimes alternates across both hands. I’d say it heavily depends on the player and the piece.

It's ironic as I was actually thinking of my own experiences learning Bach fugues and how, when I learned the hands separately, it seemed to help a lot. Especially since finger technique with Bach is so technical and how you choose your fingering is critical, it's hard to master that for both hands simultaneously. After all, you are still using the same fingers when you add the two hands together, so giving yourself a chance to focus on just one hand seemed to always help me a lot -- not just help me, but actually was a requirement to getting it learned. I don't think I could have ever learned some of those intricate fugues if I'd done both hands together. Or at least, it would have taken longer. For example, which is easier, sight reading music with both hands, or sight reading each hand separately?

> Brian Behlendorf, one of the Apache's creators, asserted that the origins of Apache were not a pun, stating:

> > The name literally came out of the blue. I wish I could say that it was something fantastic, but it was out of the blue. I put it on a page and then a few months later when this project started, I pointed people to this page and said: "Hey, what do you think of that idea?" ... Someone said they liked the name and that it was a really good pun. And I was like, "A pun? What do you mean?" He said, "Well, we're building a server out of a bunch of software patches, right? So it's a patchy Web server." I went, "Oh, all right." ... When I thought of the name, no. It just sort of connotated: "Take no prisoners. Be kind of aggressive and kick some ass."

So, no, it's based on a stereotype of a group of tribes indigenous to North America. The pun endures because the indigenous culture did not.

Right, and when you notice that a bunch of organisms share a trait, the fact that they share that trait in spite of their common ancestor not sharing it is inherently interesting, right?

We know that traits are heritable, so when you have a bunch of different organisms that exhibit the same characteristic, if you can trace back and determine they are all specialized descendants of some ancestor which first developed that characteristic, that’s the complete story right there.

But when we see the same behavior appear in different organisms without them sharing a common root for that characteristic that’s interesting precisely because we need another means to explain it.

I mean, if grizzlies and polar bears could interbreed even though their nearest common ancestor was, say, some kind of small Cretaceous rodent, then weld have some explaining to do, right?
It's worthwhile to google for "highest IQ in America" and then check these guys out on YouTube. When I did this I found they were palpably no where near as smart as say, W.O. Wilson or Richard Feynman. Perhaps IQ tests don't measure wisdom and you need a bit of both to be effective? Not sure.

Hi there, psychologist here who has done research in personality including looking at the Big Five. It's not my personal favorite set of constructs, but I have great respect for the body of work supporting it.

Modern personality theory in no way assumes that personality doesn't change over time. It finds instead that personality tends to be "somewhat stable over time" which means that personality doesn't vary massively from week to week or month to month but can definitely shift across the lifespan. In fact, here's a large study looking at exactly that (though cross-sectional which means that many effects could be a function of age cohorts rather than actual change).

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2562318/

Regarding your hypothetical introverted recent college grad, these kinds of shifts can and do happen, but massive shifts in personality appear to be quite rare. What's more, modern work in the area has found that "within-person" variability is much greater than "between-persons" variability meaning that as individuals we express a wide range of behaviors. For example, I might be more extraverted at work and more introverted among friends or vice versa, showing internal variation. That said, we can talk about a person's average level of a trait like extraversion and that average is meaningful and predictive.

As to your point, both kinds of change can and do happen, but changing our behavioral approach to life tends to be gradual and slow for most people.
To the extent that PCA of survey results exhibit dimensionality, that is real. The underlying basis might be modes of social dynamics or clusters in genetics or language. It would be surprising to find that totally unconstrained random processes generated patterns like this.

I would argue that my degrees in philosophy were granted to me while I was learning to think and judge well at university.

It's funny that the paper author goes only into multitasking / concentration after wondering why people struggle to think critically. Sure, distracted thinking is generally not good thinking, but slowing down in and of itself won't improve your judgment skills. It's kind of a bummer that after the author says "there's a problem with critical thinking!" -- he moves on and doesn't talk about ways to actually develop critical thinking besides, you know, this 4 minute essay that just says "slow down the decision making process." I would have hoped he would have talked about different ways to analyze or prioritize problems, or discussed game theory or maybe gone into wicked problems[1].

Oh well

Ok but I do not think I've ever met anyone who took Sankt Hans as anything serious - that is to say for them it is all tradition (see a thing burn, call it a witch, listen to some tunes, drink some beer, grill out yayyy) and none belief. Of course with my luck I'll end up having an Ari Aster Sankt Hans this year.

But it's a nice reference.

It is that, but it's not called that. It's called incognito mode. "With one's identity disguised or concealed". With the icon of a spy in trenchcoat and hat and shades. Going out into the world incognito does not imply "everyone knows who I am as usual, I just don't keep a diary entry of where I go", it implies some attempt to disguise and hide and obscure.

FireFox's "Private Browsing" mode is similarly misnamed. "Private" does not imply: everyone knows what I'm doing, except my personal diary log has no record of it. Private implies other people don't know.

> the ability to gain more benefit across many areas of value from the same or fewer resources.

Your use of the term "more benefit" is clever because it avoids definition, and cannot be disproven.

If you'd said "more money" or "more power" or "more calories" or "more resources" the notion of benefit could be directly assessed, although different people would assess each proposition differently, some positively, and others negatively, because the value of "more" of anything is circumstantial and a matter of taste.

Sometimes less is more.
not just FUD, the entitlement that shows through is staggering. This is from one of the comments:

""
You have failed from the very outset to identify that as a widely used and well loved FOSS, you will be, and must be, at all times subject to public scrutiny of decisions prior to ANY kind of code changes being submitted.
""

I know audacity was acquired recently, but these people were, until about 3 days prior to that pull request, most likely unpaid volunteers working on a hobby project for fun.

It's that sort of attitude (the "you will and must be subject to public scrutiny") which is why my open source projects are only open source, I dump my code on github for people to learn from them, but I have absolutely no interest in engaging in this sort of discussion to grow my projects. And there is no lack of entitled comments on my Github issues pages.
