Thanks! Just the motivation I needed to give this topic a more earnest shot. I’ve heard of classical counterpoint before but never looked to deep into it because it didn’t seem to be what I was after with a cursory glance.

Do you know of any good resources for learning how this works? Things like the role a certain chord plays within a piece.
I know you said you couldn’t find what you were looking for in the docs, but just in case you were looking in the wrong place:
Besides the convolution operator, I believe all the math should have been covered in high school (summation, max, and basic arithmetics). And convolution is also just defined in terms of these same operations, so you should be able to understand the definition (See the discrete definition in the wiki page under the “cross corrosion of deterministic signals” section).
The math does look daunting if it’s your first time encountering them (I’ve been there), and sometimes all you really need to confirmation that you already have all the requisite knowledge.
I’ve probably spent more time looking up how to access specific functions in a GUI than for CLI.
It wouldn’t make sense to add clutter to a GUI that benefits a tiny fraction of users a tiny fraction of the time while making the experience worse for everyone else.
It’s very possibly a serious comment. I know some people remap ESC to something on/near the home row because of how much use it gets in vim.
And what scientific evidence has there ever been suggesting that this is the case? We can’t even scientifically evaluate whether another living being has any conscious experience.
What makes a definition then if it’s not the usage in common parlance and by experts in the field?
It’s similar to the concept of being an outlaw. If you decide to break the laws, then laws no longer apply to you, including those that serve to protect you. If you do not tolerate, then you do not get the protections of tolerance.
It’s a product of the environment, which the parents set. So children of people who care about the environment is probably going to also care because that’s what their parents teach them.
Disagreeing with the established definition of a term is certainly an opinion.
But since you’ve decided not to post this argument, OP no longer has reason to elaborate further. I want to hear about why people hold their unpopular opinions.
From the outside, yes. We don’t have anything information about the post-death experience.
So if you don’t tolerate the intolerant, then they will be intolerant? I don’t follow this logic.
Not having kids to solve the environmental problem is like killing a homeless dude to solve his hunger problems. Sure, you’ve gotten rid of the problem, but along with it, you’ve also gotten rid of the entire reason for wanting to fix the problem in the first place.
In this context, “funk” = microorganisms that can harm you if consumed. The bacteria used in producing the cheese are safe to consume.
Doesn’t sound too different from interacting with people when you don’t know how to read body language.
If you consider only the mean, then of course you’re going to be better off without insurance on average. But most of us don’t care about the mean. We care about the variance. And when you buy insurance, you’re reducing the variance in your life in exchange for a lower mean. The problem with insurance isn’t insurance itself, but that often you pay and get nothing in return.
Ah, gotcha. You weren’t the only one to say this, so I thought there might be something more to it.
In an idealized scenario where everyone is arguing in an attempt to seek the truth rather than to win an argument, I would agree with you. But so often, you have people linking you to whole novels that they themselves haven’t even read. Does it actually contain the information they’re trying to convey? They may tell you that it does, but I’m not convinced that they know it does, and all it’ll do is exhaust you before you get the chance to actually address their point. The few times I’ve tried following through and reading these linked texts, my responses just get met with silence. The rare response you do get is not worth the extra effort required to engage with this kind of comment. At the very least, if you have someone who writes out a response in their own words, you know they’re willing to take the time to actually discuss, and so you return the courtesy.
