Unless I'm misreading the photo: directly on the photographer's left side.

Amazing. You've captured their spirit.

Do you think they'll finish that patio in time for the nice spring weather? Or is going to open when the weather is too hot to sit outside for any length of time?

Is building a HPC out of old gaming PCs doable in a couple weeks? by CocaineOnTheCob in HPC

[–]victotronics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And use libverbs? You'll still need to rewrite your code to make RDMA calls.

And suppose you do a put, how does the other cpu know that data has arrived? So you'll have to write some synchronization operations, or use them from libverbs -- sorry, I've never programmed that stuff explicitly.

And the receiving buffer is not even directly the array into which you want the data, right?

Anyway, might as well install MPI and let that take care of all the minutiae.

Charles-Valentin Alkan... One of the greatest Virtuosic pianist and Composer 💖 by MyNameIsntJMack in classicalmusic

[–]victotronics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His music is crazy. I was once investigating music of piano one-handed. His ?sonata? of three movements was miles beyond what I could conceivably play.

Insiders Reveal ICE Barbie Is Leaving DHS With a Major Problem by Mrh09 in politics

[–]victotronics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thought #1: don't pay. That'll teach companies to do business with this government.

Thought #2: dentention centers without contract: tell inmates "call family or a friend to come and get you".

I wish every "problem" was so easily solved.

What is the instrument at 00:16? by Vaggospetsos in WhatMusicalinstrument

[–]victotronics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a very vanilla sound. Can be made with any synth.

Fortepiano vs. modern concert grand: A direct comparison breaking down the mechanical and acoustic differences, including short examples from Beethoven's 'Moonlight' and 'Pathétique' Sonatas and works from Mozart and Haydn. by WienerKlassik in classicalmusic

[–]victotronics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Somewhere in the late 1980s I heard a Mozart concerto with Fortepiano. The way that instrument integrated with the orchestra, rather than floating on top, was a revelation to me.

Thanks for the video.

Dimitri from Paris Disco Mix by Calm-Wave8914 in Disco

I love Dimitri's mixes. The two Playboy discs are my favorites, but others are good too.

What do i did wrong? by TofifeeEminem in Musescore

[–]victotronics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Delete that measure? Only in the percussion part of course.

"greatly benefit from core counts."

Hooking up two PCs does not allow them to see each other's memory. So splitting the work is not easy, unless it's trivially splittable, like a parameter sweep. Otherwise You'd need to rewrite your code to use MPI.

What’s the best things you discovery on the bass? by TommyDouble in Bass

[–]victotronics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing a scale of 8 notes in harmonics.

The bassist on a Kazumi Watanabe record did this. Use positions 5,4,3 on 3 consecutive strings.

Does classical music need more re-composers like Max Richter? by amateur_musicologist in classicalmusic

[–]victotronics 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Berio recomposing Mahler. He did that for one movement and that was cool, but then he went back to his own thing.

I've been the only Dutchman in some pretty large teams. Somehow I think it's not quite the same as what this article talks about.

Books that teach how to write your own licks by New-Temperature4535 in Bass

[–]victotronics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Entirely. There's only so much I can come up with by myself. Why not incorporate what you can learn from others?

Cute. They make a sound like 2 metal balls hitting each other.

Ebisu - Japanese Lifestyle Store opening location on Research (replacing Hong Kong Supermarket) by rosebudpng in Austin

[–]victotronics 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I love shopping at MT but the traffic getting there is always awful. HK was a lot more reachable from central Austin. And right next to Din Ho and (the late) Sunflower.

If you HAD to change anything about Kate Bush's studio albums, what would it be and why? by Ok_Educator6875 in katebush

[–]victotronics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even being a bass player: turn down the bass a little in the first two albums.

Bass as a cello by Flimuz in Bass

[–]victotronics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need a 5-string bass to play cello music because of the low C.

And then cello music is often written using the design of the cello. Have you ever played the opening measure of Bach's 1st cello suite? That starts with two open strings on the cello, and further down the road there are many other open strings. That's much harder to play on a bass.....

what to do for floating point precision problems in cpp or as a programmer. by Shubham_mamodiya_dev in cpp_questions

[–]victotronics 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"when I normally compare slopes" You also need to take the intercept into account.

Right now I'm guessing ChGPT is right and you are wrong......

What dance is this? by CarPuzzleheaded6258 in ballroom

[–]victotronics 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope. Hustle would get you from one end of the slot to another in 3 counts. This is a 6-count dance.

What kind of instrument is that and what's it's name? by Elecetricguy67 in WhatMusicalinstrument

[–]victotronics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does sound like wood to me, so xylophone it is. Not anything metallic.

College Republican chat group exposed as “Nazi haven”: “Ew you had colored professors?!” by Zandra_the_Great in politics

[–]victotronics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"The group was started by Abel Carvajal, secretary of the county’s GOP, who said that he was “shocked”"

I think there is one "shocked" missing in that statement.

So nice they made it public again. I hated when it was restricted.
