The argument is either intellectually dishonest or you just really haven't thought this through very deep and are just puppeting this neoliberal bullshit. We could start with I have traded wheat futures and could hedge with future cont

After playing guitar for 25 years, I quit guitar and got a digital piano. I practiced enough to learn to play Satie - Gnossienne No. 1 in the right hand and then sold the piano. My fav music is Chopin, Satie, Ravel, Debussy, Rachmaninoff, L

Have you ever done anything with tone.js? I think of this completely opposite. C++ and audio is the incumbent relic that will progress one funeral at a time. Librosa and Pyo are just incredible in python but for offline processing. Rust and

I just don't know how anyone who uses Gemini can say this. It just isn't even close at this point for my uses across multiple domains. It even makes me sad because I would much rather use chatGPT than Google but if you plotted my

The Gleick book is a good quick introduction to complexity. Introduction to the Theory of Complex Systems is an incredible second book on the subject but it wouldn't be fair to compare it to the Gleick book. I enjoyed How The World Rea

I learned programming with csound in the 90s but for me, Pyo and Librosa means there is no reason for a specialized language outside of python. There is value in what has already been built for these languages but once you move beyond that,
