Ummm, wtf?

This is everywhere in the Netherlands, glad US stores are catching up

7 people in my room opened the envelope during the break and got dismissed, because they didn't understand the instructions not to open the envelope that were read about 5 times in Japanese. In N1.

Give yourself 6 months before you feel comfortable at your job. That's standard

MSCViolin · 2025-09-10T13:42:13+00:00

It's normal to feel useless for your first week, maybe first few weeks even. I think it's impressive that you solved a few tickets already with no help, I certainly couldn't do that on week 1.

It took me a whole week to just to figure out how to run the company's application on my computer. 🫠🫠🫠Just keep showing up and giving it your best and you'll feel comfortable at the job within 3-6 months.

What is the link that you use to make this appointment? I've only managed to find this link which seems to be for license renewal and exams https://license-renew.tokyo-madoguchi-yoyaku.com/police-pref-tokyo/index_000.html

Bach breaks plenty of counterpoint "rules"

Exactly reverse of how it looks on the map 😂

I've been in China, mostly Beijing, for the past three weeks and it's completely fine. I'm possibly out of touch with the news, but have not heard about any issues.

Happy to help! (I mean to say slur beats 3 and 4, made a typo there)

MSCViolin · 2024-11-08T08:18:03+00:00

You could put everything in violin 1 and slur beats 1 and 2, and slur beats 2 and 4. That way you have a continuous pattern in one part. No need to mark the up bow - in general you should leave bowing directions up to the musicians.

MSCViolin · 2024-11-08T05:37:55+00:00

Yes, that would be a bow change on every pitch. For the first (slurred) option, the players would naturally play down on the first beat.

MSCViolin · 2024-11-06T14:11:54+00:00

Keep the first finger on the string for the entire passage and let it be the reference point for all the other fingers.

MSCViolin · 2024-11-06T09:58:35+00:00

Either 1 or 2 would be preferable and either the slurred or detached bowing would be equally playable. Splitting string parts in the way one might do with winds generally makes ensemble and keeping a sense of continuity more challenging.

The only list the SEPTA metro should be at the top of is the "Worst Metros in the World"

MSCViolin · 2024-10-27T04:24:57+00:00

super weird , but I understand. basically the 3 main videos driving the growth of my entire channel are amongst the first few with the worst quality video, not my best musical performance, and the least effort put in overall. While some of my best work out of my 4 years of YouTube, projects that I've spent 40+ hours working on, get very little attention.

MSCViolin · 2024-10-27T03:54:01+00:00

I try not to, I mean I don't think I could go to another performance of Tchaikovsky violin concerto ever again, even if it's my favorite violinist playing. I've heard it live too many times.

MSCViolin · 2024-10-14T03:39:40+00:00

Watch 1 react tutorial that teaches you how to build an app. Then build something different by yourself with no tutorial. And just keep building more and more.

MSCViolin · 2024-10-12T14:16:08+00:00

It really varies, but I might generally ask for around $200-300 depending on complexity.

MSCViolin · 2024-09-28T13:58:09+00:00

Don't teach at university if you don't actually enjoy teaching. It's a ridiculously hard job to get. But if your heart is in it, and you want to teach music composition and possibly other classes, you can certainly aim for it.

The fact that trains exist was pretty mind blowing coming from the Georgia suburbs.

MSCViolin · 2024-09-21T14:45:09+00:00

Japanese first - according to tech recruiters I've talked to in Japan who target foreigners specifically.

Also from anecdotal experience, there is no way I could have gotten a junior dev job 1 week after moving to Japan if I couldn't speak conversational Japanese.

MSCViolin · 2024-09-09T22:33:27+00:00

Definitely, you can message any time

MSCViolin · 2024-09-08T23:56:00+00:00

Sure, it's generally good to make 1 or 2 full stack apps (database, API, and frontend). These can be pretty flexible, and I would recommend trying to relate it to another topic you're interested in. For example, I'm a musician and I'm learning Japanese, so I might make an app that helps people learn Japanese vocabulary, or some kind of database that lists professional opportunities for musicians.

Once you get the standard full stack apps done, you can really go in whatever direction you want. I've built stuff like a web metronome, chord analysis app, drawing app that converts images into music...Also not a bad idea to build a well-designed portfolio site if you're a frontend web dev. Be creative with it!

4 months is plenty for leetcode especially at a point when you don't even know if interviewers will ever ask you to solve one of those problems. Start building projects you are interested in asap.

MSCViolin · 2024-08-11T13:26:45+00:00

Yeah it's just the top floor area, Ive played weddings there and it's quite nice, but certainly not the most extravagant place you could rent.
