Brb fantasizing about programming this asap
ā¦but its wings didnāt get a chance to expand and its abdomen is still filled with fluid. I moved it to some wildflowers that the bees love and we have seen many monarchs visiting, hoping it might take some time and open out its wings, but Iām past hoping. Too many life lessons for one day
I am maybe excessively sad about one who struggled to get out of the chrysalis. It seemed like it was taking too long, and when I checked back later it was on the floor, still wrapped in the bottom half of the chrysalis and unable to mov but wiggling its legs. I picked it up, helped get the rest off
Hereās a couple more, one out and one coming out soon
This video was really helpful actually showing how to take it out and diagnosing problems youtu.be/z1Aw39VSlnQ?...

A pianist friend told me this book outlines a similar method approach, although each personās will be unique. Iāve never looked at the book but Iām not surprised the general method is not unique www.google.com/books/editio...
Itās just notating phrase lengths and groupings plus small extra pieces of contextual information ad hoc. Breaking the piece down into phrase groups and characterizing them in any way that makes sense to the player is the method. Making a map and playing off the map usually means itās memorized

I have brought the great ball of crystal; who can lift it? Can you enter the great acorn of light?

This is also my joke about 10 years of grad school every time I have to move all the desks before teaching class because somebody left them all in a pile to clear space for a chamber music rehearsal the previous night. Absolutely slayed the furniture-moving section on my comps.
I want to read an analysis on this immediately
Hereās the last movement of Dvorak concerto; playing it off the form chart today means itās 80% memory-ready for first time playing it with orchestra in October. This is the fastest way I know how to get memory totally solid, and I recommend it to all my students
This reminds me of portions of Mark Danielewskiās House of Leaves
stop asking chatGPT just ask me
First one hatched! You can see the newer pale green one in the foreground, and the dark one in the background which will hatch tomorrow. As they get close to hatching they darken and you can see wing patterns through the shell as it becomes transparent
Grew up playing video games, but feel alienated anymore trying to play complex skill games, even like smash bros. I feel like there are people who have spent comparable time playing games as I have playing cello, and I canāt imagine bridging the gap. Maybe thatās how they feel about music
I dunno if I search on Google literally every hit says donāt do it because it can cause sludgy clogs and me not being able to plumber I just sort of say āok sounds badā
Any plumbing experts on Bluesky want to back this up? Itās just the opposite of what I have always heard!
Ok Sam that legit probably works very well and Iām feeling dumb for not thinking of it, thank you, thatās exactly what I was looking for
I did aeropress only for over a decade, itās fabulous for single serving
Maybe I am too sensitive about grounds down the drain, that is possible
Aeropress you just plunge the cup out, vs French press needing to scoop the grounds out once they are drained and relatively dry and clean the metal filter. Itās torture. Coffee grounds down garbage disposal or sink is a big no thanks in my experience, can cause huge expensive problems
I might try French press more often but oh my god it is so annoying to try to clean, especially if you donāt want grounds going down your sink drain. What am I missing, how do people do this every day
This is the worst thing a banana company has ever done. Hang on, I'm being handed a note...
I agree, that was my memory! I think also screens for entertainment offer a possibility of controlling kidsā behavior, and giving up the notion of control is probably healthier for everyone

I have tried similar with a 1-2 hour rule for college assignments, paired with the insistence that students never feel they need to suffer in silence. Sometimes it works well, and I think frees students to engage in time limited process vs only thinking product
I had a math teacher with a 30 minute rule: if you spent 30 mins on homework but couldnāt finish, just write 30 mins at the top and youāll get full credit. Caveat that you will likely be asked to have a meeting with teacher to see what you are misunderstanding that is taking so long.
thank you!

Love it already thank you
Happy birthday! I hope you are not feeling like a bike (too tired)
Crowd control because they loved it so much!? Thatās amazing. Iāll check it out!
More than anything it makes me highly motivated to do shows with light design and other experiential elementsā¦. A current and ongoing effort
Except compline was legit good
Exactly, and they make it friendly for instagram
Anyway I can chat anytime more about it but will stop for now. I will say that now i am āhaunted by candlelightā and learned a lot from the experience and learning about their digital marketing but dont want to do it again
Fever didnāt care whether the playing was high quality, and I see how this can cannibalize a more active freelance scene if itās pulling people away from the more established series, which I have heard some about in LA, but it could be just regular griping
The cheapness of the gimmick made it crystal clear to me that a lot of classical musicās audience issue is marketing related; candlelight was good at getting all kinds of people that wouldnāt necessarily go to the symphony out to pay premium prices for a concert
$500 for an easy weeknight gig is good enough to put upward pressure on regular freelance rates, which is VERY good for a local music ecosystem I think
It worked for us when the regional manager let us choose our own programming and stopped working when the new manager wanted us to only do their pop programs and no more classical. We used to play our series season programs or other stuff we liked and that worked artistically/logistically
+$500 per night to play two short easy shows, sometimes multiple per week
I made a lot of money playing these for two years or so and then stopped. I have a lot of thoughts and feelings about it, and wrote a paper about fever for a class I took
This is a good example of why I crave more book club style discussion media consumption or general criticism, itās very easy to miss context and interpretative details when consuming media alone. I watched it at the end of June and now itās been covered more widely since then
I think at the time I felt it was weird to have a movie celebrating kpop but using more American hip hop style for reasons I couldnāt really square but this makes a lot more sense.
I watched it in the middle of the summer by myself, hadnāt read anything about it and didnāt have anyone to talk to about it, and I think I was just really surprised at the stylistic difference, which colored my experience maybe of the movie in general. I should give it another chance
Thatās totally my error not understanding contemporary kpop sounds, I didnāt mean none of them sounded like the genre, I think I was most surprised at the rap flows sounding like American hip hop

That makes sense! I watched Men in Black scores of times because my family owned the VHSā¦ I just thought it was odd for that one to take off because I watched (most of) it and was a bit confused; super polished production but didnāt really sound like Kpop, story wasnāt particularly engaging
how
Not even a chanson! A LIED!!
I havenāt thought about that! Scurrying off to think about it now
From his biography, there is an argument to me the Sonata and quintet are expressions forbidden love, conflict between religious and sensual love, so itās not unthinkable
I mean, there are a lot of parallels to the prelude
In the first moment and the spirit of Wagner studies are there some deliberate Tristan influences or do we hear what we are conditioned to understand?
But what else did he write! I need to get to know his music better. The Sonata makes me think he must have some extraordinary art song, but Iām not familiar with any.

I also did basically the same thing with cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, and cauliflower and served it on bread with a schmear of goat cheese, drizzle of vinegar and herbs. Point is, roasting vegetables for dinner with oil and vinegar is a magic spell
Had a dinner party last night for friends and three people asked me sincerely how I cooked the purple cabbage I served because they loved it. I chopped it up, put salt, pepper, oil, and vinegar on it, and roasted it for 30 mins at 425, then put vinegar on it again. Thatās it! #cabbagesky
Ok!!
Petrarch sure knew how to come out swinging with the first of the Canzoniere āof all my raving all the fruit is shame and penitence, and knowing all too well that what the world loves is a passing dreamā
The university that invented modern neoliberalism going too hard into speculative investments and ending up destroying itself through a debt trap is a bit too on the nose
Itās uncomfortable to ask for help! But thatās how things always worked, I know a person who knows a personā¦.. I definitely agree with what you are saying but the social fabric element works and is strengthened when we use it
The Old Internet was amazing at getting people with expertise more accessible, YouTube videos, etc. Itās pretty crazy to give up expertise as a criterion for knowledge just for trusting ācomputerā
Who wants a general doctor using llm instead of being referred to a specialist when you have a medical problem? Nobody
But you get better results working with experts rather than being asked to do things āfasterā and aloneā¦. Again I guess from employers it is cheaper (??), but works just acquiescing or welcoming this seems odd? People are trying to demonstrate how much they can contribute to shareholder value alone?

Why canāt you figure it out yourself, and why canāt you ask for help, so that you feel better asking a computer that didnāt exist five years ago? What did we do before you could avoid talking to a person?
