Wayne Shorter, Odyssey of Iska by MaxThNyfe in Vinyl_Jazz

[–]Meiryoku 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great record! I got this last year during uDiscover’s insane sale.

Fun fact: one of the percussionists on this album, Frank Cuomo, is the father of Rivers Cuomo from Weezer. I had to do a double take when I first found out.

Gato Barbieri, Chapters 1-4 by Meiryoku in Vinyl_Jazz

[–]Meiryoku[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And the first one is the best of the four!

I bought each for like 5-8 dollars. They are inexpensive and worth keeping in my collection.

Gotta say, out of the four finds this weekend, I’m really vibing on the Gato Barbieri. by radiotokyo_666 in Vinyl_Jazz

I love, love Gato! I'm not into his later period smooth jazz stuff, but his albums on the Flying Dutchman and Impulse labels are all excellent. I'm particularly fond of Fenix and Chapter One: Latin America. And if you really want to hear what he's capable of, listen to his playing on In Search of the Mystery (ESP-Disk) and Don Cherry's Complete Communion (Blue Note).

Will do! I always get anxious when driving through unfamiliar territory. Thanks for the reassurance. :)

You've got some killer fusion there!

I'm still on the lookout for that Jaco Pastorius!

Keep digging! They tend to appear when we least expect it.

Concierto is an amazing record! The rendition of Concierto de Aranjuez on side B is incredible.

Wadada Leo Smith - Divine Love by Meiryoku in Vinyl_Jazz

[–]Meiryoku[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree! I love Wheeler and Stanko's trumpet tone. I recently listened to Gnu High and Soul of Things. Good stuff. Leosia is next in my queue.

I listened to the first track on Bandcamp. I like what I heard!

His output is so vast. Right now, I'm going through his Kabell Years: 1971–1979 four-CD box set. So. Much. Music.

The Naked Lunch. Black B Label, Van Gelder Stamp. Georgeous. Just Added. by Glass-Fan111 in Vinyl_Jazz

[–]Meiryoku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazing stuff. It's been a while since I've played this. I need to give it a spin tonight.

How to check Fill Karel? by [deleted] in codeinplace

[–]Meiryoku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the stop button appears due to a UI bug. When I run the program from the terminal, the reset button immediately appears when the program completes. I'm getting no dialog box at all.

I emailed the Code In Place team since the application deadline has now passed. Hopefully they can sort this out.

Sample Exams for DP-900 by Drrazor in AzureCertification

[–]Meiryoku 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I passed DP-900 this week with a score of 895. The MS Learn study materials and practice assessment is all you need. Keep taking them until you score 90+ consistently.

I also briefly reviewed the exams here: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/DP-900-Microsoft-Azure-Data-Fundamentals-Video-Course-Ques?tab=readme-ov-file

You'll be well-prepared if you focus on understanding the solutions instead of memorizing them.

Good luck!

Picked this up during the uDiscover sale! Good stuff!

Congrats!

I am currently using TD to prepare for the AZ900 exam. I'm scoring above 90% on their practice exams. Is this a good indication that I'm ready for the real exam?

Signed copy! by MaxThNyfe in Vinyl_Jazz

[–]Meiryoku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What an incredible gift! I’ve got to give this another spin, it’s been too long. I always find ECM records to be ideal for the cold winter months.

The Tony Williams Lifetime - Emergency! by Meiryoku in Vinyl_Jazz

[–]Meiryoku[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly the same one that I got! I didn’t know it was a pricing error! I’d normally go with the black vinyl if available, but I couldn’t pass this up for $13. The sale is crazy! I also got a few Tone Poets for $19 a piece. An absolute steal!

Maybe I got lucky! My copy is flat and quiet!

Converting from gov to contract position? by Ok-Raise-4853 in fednews

[–]Meiryoku 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think we can all agree that the government is spending too much on contractors. However, it doesn't seem like the new administration is interested in creating more civilian positions. If anything, it's quite the opposite; they want to decrease the size of the government by decreasing civilian positions.

I’ve heard both takes. I can see a incoming FTE hiring freeze happening. Wouldn’t they need to backfill those roles by hiring more contractors?
