    1. why I love my wife. By myself, I am the one hand clapping, an illusion of a human. I come fully into personhood only when I am completed by the presence of my mate. She is, for me, the other hand, creating the sound that is our life.

      I'm reminded of Jerry Maguire: "You complete me."

    1. Best methods for mixing: - Same number, same letter - Same number, different letter This is the absolute best method for mixing compatibility for a tonal shift - Same letter, 1 difference in number (+1/-1)

      Other Methods (less reliable but still useful at times): - Semitone Shift (+7 number, same letter) - Full tone shift (+/- 2 number, same letter) - Compatible tone shift: -3 number, different letter - Diagonal switch (+/- 1 number, different letter


      All this is due to the overlap in notes within the respective scales. Most of this is also dependent on the tracks being played and their notes.

    1. A thorough evaluation should include vision and hearing screenings, even though the primary area of concern is academics.

    1. but limiting the conference to 7 or 8 participants given all the duplication of the sent video required. In Element Call Beta 2, end-to-end encryption was enabled; easy, given it’s just a set of 1:1 calls.

      I imagine having to transmit stuff to every peer would not work well for low-bandwidth devices.

      Also, complete connectivity graph is a LOT of connections.

      Additionally, given one channel fails - recipient doesn't see content, while others do. (they could have broadcasted it, hey!)

      Also, won't scale for streaming.

    1. A neural network with a hidden layer has universality: given enough hidden units, it can approximate any function. This is a frequently quoted – and even more frequently, misunderstood and applied – theorem. It’s true, essentially, because the hidden layer can be used as a lookup table.

    1. I am a big advocate of having a complete test base and even erring on the side of caution when it comes to quality engineering and software validation but that is not what we’re talking about here. What we’re talking about here are the tests that we write when we’re doing test-first development and I’m proposing that writing those tests from the perspective of specifying the behaviors that we want to create is a highly valuable way of writing tests because it drives us to think at the right level of abstraction for creating behavioral tests and that allow us the freedom to refactor our code without breaking it.

    1. Using a terminus to indicate a certain outcome - in turn - allows for much stronger interfaces across nested activities and less guessing! For example, in the new endpoint gem, the not_found terminus is then wired to a special “404 track” that handles the case of “model not found”. The beautiful thing here is: there is no guessing by inspecting ctx[:model] or the like - the not_found end has only one meaning!
    2. A major improvement here is the ability to maintain more than two explicit termini. In 2.0, you had the success and the failure termini (or “ends” as we used to call them). Now, additional ends such as not_found can be leveraged to communicate a non-binary outcome of your activity or operation.
