I recommend the CVT app for more comprehensive information. (Also the Estill book is quite good if you have an Estill teacher.)

Yousician http://yousician.com/

It has different kinds of notes presentation modes.

Do the APIs support simultaneous voice transcription in a way that different voices are tagged? (either in text or as metadata)

If so: could you split the audiofile and process the latter half by pitch shifting, say an octave, and then merging them together to get shorter audiofile — then transcribe and join them back to a linear form, tagging removed. (You could insert some prerecorded voice to know at which point the second voice starts.). If pitch change is not enough, maybe manipulate it further by formants.

After loading files, the game says: "Initialize shaders, please keep focus on this windows." Nothing happens so I looked at console.

There was: "Exception thrown: Uncaught SimulateInfiniteLoop" Uncaught SimulateInfiniteLoop

Lyyri, in which you can split a Youtube video into parts and add lyrics to it: https://egaga.github.io/Lyyri/

Mainly made for myself, so that I can easily sing only parts of the song with lyrics.

Then Spotify added lyrics back and kinda lost interest in this, even though could be used for other purposes as well like teaching purposes: giving link to students to watch only some of the video with added commentary by teacher. Though, currently the actual video is shown only really small so doesn't suite for that.

This is what Yousician does for singing (and other analog instruments) but unfortunately not for the violin: https://yousician.com/singing

Haven't tried it but maybe the following app could help?

> Trala uses signal processing, groundbreaking technology that analyzes the sound of your violin and gives you instant feedback on pitch and rhythm every time you practice. When you play the wrong notes, we’ll help you get back on track.

He also has started a podcast this year. In each episode he discusses mainly math and education related topics with different people. I have liked it quite much.

I wonder if that's still relevant way to learn Rust as seems to written in 2018.

Now that I think about it, the worst code seem to lead to situations where the top developers can really show their value.

I mean if the code base is quite good and is kept that way, then a normal developer can deal with it quite well. But if you get a legacy mess, then the hard-core developer can make really drastic changes that have enormous value to the maintainability, future development and bug-wise.

If a normal developer tries to tackle that mess, it's easy to get into trouble and drown in the sea of opportunities and not see the big picture and take a proper road plan to improve things.

So in a way -1 developers enable the top developers to show the gap between them and the normal devs.

To extend your list, I like grandmasters GingerGM https://www.youtube.com/c/GingerGM and Daniel Naroditsky https://www.youtube.com/c/DanielNaroditskyGM

Yup, that's good to point out. Zen mode helped me enormously when tackling puzzles, because just seeing how I had fared earlier was making me think about my performance instead of puzzles.

And later same thing on competitive games.

Don't know, good question. But why should we care about credit? I know we do but should we?

FWIW, I have lots of ideas on my Trello, it's not hard to come up ideas that have potential in my eyes, but the problem is to have energy or motivation to test-drive them and see if they could be sculpted into fruitful applications, not to mention profitability and marketing which I know nothing about.

Hey, this is great, have been waiting for something like this.

One bug found: https://lichess.org/NvbQTf2O/black

> PlayChessCoach 23. Nc7: "The point of White's previous move. The knight on d7 is trapped and the rook on a8 is not protected."

There is no knight on d7 or no knight that could be moved there. (Or so it seems to me.)

In that same game this was funny banter:

> PlayChessCoach careful not to get mated in the long run."

Thank you for writing architectural overview, enjoying it!

Milewski is almost my sole resource for category theory so far. I watched his lectures on youtube, and ordered that book as printed from here: https://www.blurb.com/b/9621951-category-theory-for-programm...

Yup, the influences on e.g. Newton happening to delve into reading up on Archimedes, Descartes, Fermat, and then synthesizing their inventions in his mind with lot of time on his hand, or for that matter Leibniz getting math tutoring from Christiaan Huygens seem to be crucial in relation to the invention of fluxions/infinitesimals. (Approximately from memory of reading Infinite Powers by Steven Strogatz).

Doesn't diminish their achievement in my mind.

Quick search gives 1.720 million saunas in apartments (total 2.3). So your claim sounds about right.

https://www.tilastokeskus.fi/tup/suoluk/suoluk_asuminen_en.h...

Really? I doubt that. Perhaps most buildings, as storey buildings do often have a shared sauna. As an anecdote, I have lived perhaps in 6 rented apartments, and two of them had a sauna, and I don't think I decidedly chose non-sauna option.

Here's some article in Finnish about the current trend that new apartments don't necessarily have a sauna: https://yle.fi/uutiset/3-9393813

It could be that most households have but also I've seen an article that people use them plainly as storage rooms.

> so the music has to be interpreted

Just to extend this point: My understanding of the topic might be far off as I haven't ever learned music under a teacher. But to me there's great deal of interpretation even with tempi marks that even good students just aren't thinking.

I sometimes enjoy watching masterclasses of players with wealth of experience. Andres Schiff is one of the most famous ones. Also Maxim Vengerov the violinist. Anyone that hasn't seen one masterclass should look up on youtube if that sound remotely interesting.

Yes this, please!

How is it possible that some kind of imaginative script can be enough to get SMS sim swapped? Why aren't the operators requiring a strong identification via a passport or something like that? Maybe I'm really dumb but that just boggles my mind, whether or not there exist other types of alternatives to 2FA.

In previous project, we had Kotlin DSL based definitions, and even though I only read it, it seemed to make a lot of sense: static typing, and reuse of code e.g., between QA and production environment definitions.

I think it may have been this: https://github.com/fkorotkov/k8s-kotlin-dsl

> We no longer have the problem of trying to fit “a wizard can only use a staff or dagger” into the type system of the C# language. We have no reason to believe that the C# type system was designed to have sufficient generality to encode the rules of Dungeons & Dragons, so why are we even trying?

Good point! Skimmed the blog posts, seemed to have useful enumeration of techniques with considerations.

Cool idea, my first impression is that there should be some kind of mini-arcs or long phrases that make the content more digestible. What I mean is that now the speaker goes on and on, and the subtitles are abruptly changed to another set of words. As a learner, I would like to have better sense when the words will disappear. I noticed it's arbitrary Youtube content so it's hard.. A simple testable solution for arbitrary content: option to _automatically_ pause/slow down the video just a for second before changing to the next set of text. Another simple and stupid idea would be to show previous words below the the current context.

In the long run usage of a particular user, maybe the app should not highlight words that it knows you have encountered in previous videos many times or if the system knows you have mastered that word -- in case the system is testing user, did not notice if it does.

Btw. Not sure what is the difference between green and black colored words. (Don't know Spanish so hard to guess.)

Also there's some typos at the landing page, at least these: "Activley", "wont be"

Seems like a great concept, good luck :) (I don't find Duolingo that effective either.)

That sounds like an exciting idea!

Though, personally I'm not sure how far one could get and staying true to the spirit, or the deliciousness of go, namely the interweaving quality of different ever-status-changing groups and also considering that stones have somewhat global effects (ladder). Perhaps the AI could also make helpful annotations to player why the move was important. Or suggest that this and that group should be strengthened. Or if player makes a move that first selects a region, then give some options to choose from.

I love abstract aspects of go (e.g. reading attack and defence, direction of play) but often situations involve local context that are too interesting to ignore, and thus tesujis. It would definitely would be fun to see how a game like you are suggesting would feel like.

One thing I really liked about go is that learning from a book, or trying out puzzles, is much easier than for example in Chess due to much less destructive change in the board.

(I'm ranked online perhaps 3-5 kyu, so take my take with a grain of salt).

Wrt. teaching absolute beginners, here's a nice but not that experimentally-minded blog post by a European player that became professional in Japan: https://www.nordicgodojo.eu/post/9/how-should-we-teach-go-to...

Slightly related, here's a site where one can learn playing go with assisted visuals regarding influence: https://colorgoserver.com/en

John Cage's musical piece is played hundreds of years.

> The longest music piece in the world is being performed in the city of Halberstadt in Germany: John Cage's composition for organ ORGAN2/ASLSP - As SLow aS Possible - is resounding here in an extreme interpretation of 639 years, that means until the year 2640! Halberstadt is a town (43,800 inhabitants in 2015) in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt, and the capital of the district of Harz.

I subscribed to Youtube premium as it has a couple of great channels for me, but the upgrade was easy to justify also because I fully replaced Spotify with it. With Youtube premium you could run the Android Youtube app in the background without stopping the music.

Sure, I'm all for taxes.

As an individual after I've voted, and I still want to contribute some of the earnings I've made, how do I go about that? Is it the best just to start political influencing. Why not directly give money to specific areas of science. Making science a little bit transparent to general public might give motivation for people spend some money that is not distributed similarly as tax payers.

Currently people are supporting e.g. musicians through patron-like systems, why not scientist. I think there could be a risk in that scientist would need to start wasting their time managing some kind of public display of what they do.

There definitely should be a really solid financing from tax only, and it would be horrible if a system was created to undermine that so that you would need public collection of money for projects. I'm not saying that.

How about the top minds build monetization systems that give a percentage of ads/subscriptions stream to science? Build patron-esque systems that are dedicated to specific science projects and for slow but fundamental research.

How about one could opt-in to be taxed in state so that money goes out to science. (Where I live there is a tax for a de-facto church if one belongs to that church)

Congrats, that sounds like a fulfilling choice.

Wrt. the game, the music seems really catchy, I like that the bass has clear presence.

From a quick test try of it, was probably fun to make, and seems like a cool concept. Unfortunately have to prioritize other things.
