I imagine earlier commenter suggested that fashion conference organisers should ID attendants on entry, this is a routine practice at many events.

What do you mean?


If Georgio Paviani was real, it could also be a pseudonym for a real human being, in which case there would be no ID that you could show. Pretty sure Lady Gaga's driver license doesn't use that name.


Is this why he collected first edition books? I didn’t realise it but this would make a lot of sense.


Could you elaborate?


That’s not the point. Many JS devs google “Node xxxxx” but still code with JS. Not many people search for “Python xxxxx” and code in C.

Offtopic: I disagree with grandparent, for different reasons.


Many people google "boost graph library" but are c++ developers or google "pandas how to drop columns", "numpy how to append to array" but are python developers.


I still don’t see how this leads to

> x86 ASM is the most popular language or every Python application is a c application


He states people using typescript count as people using javascript. If that is true people writing python or c++ are writing ASM


Not really. TypeScript is just a JavaScript superset, and developer code JS with all its good and bad with some annotation types. TypeScript is not like Dart or reasonML for which your analogy would have been correct if someone said Dart count as JavaScript.


I focused more on frameworks, that is React, Vue and Angular. I understand now what you meant, thanks.


I like it a lot, both concept and execution. Little nitpicking:

> Create a webpage by just writing markdown, nothing else!

The „nothing else” bit looks inaccurate, there’s a script tag at the very beginning.


Nitpicking more: raw html (including script tags) is valid markdown! So it technically is markdown and nothing else.


Noted! Then again, super nitpicking, if that script tag in the beginning is part of the markdown document, then it should also be displayed in the final document.


haha. thanks @boffinism


Thanks @posamari for the feedback, I was a bit generous with the title. I have updated HN title and GitHub Readme.


I don't see a demo button, where is it?

Edit: I see it now, the browser window has to be wide enough and not zoomed in, otherwise the page goes into mobile view and the button disappears.


Offtopic:

> The most advanced form of the keyboard interface at the moment would probably be the ROLI seaboard.

Arguably. Some like that it brings new possibilities, others highlight that it comes at a price.

Just like some would call Macbook Pro's Touchbar the most advanced laptop keyboard interface and some wouldn't.


What kind of music do you play and how do you like the new tuning so far? Were there any unexpected difficulties or benefits?


I would be hard pressed to come up with a coherent genre for what I play, I guess it's really a hodge-podge of everything I've been exposed to musically.

I like it a lot. I'd say I play 95% in P4 now, after starting about 3 months ago. I keep another guitar tuned standard right next to it, and find myself reaching for it less and less the more I get used to it. If you know standard tuning well, most of the work is just a matter of reprogramming your muscles.

The biggest trade off is that all your open and barre chords are gone (there are open and barre chords in P4, but many of them are hard to play and none of them are straight equivalents to what you have in standard--the other side of that is that some unusual chords are now easier, so it's a good way to experience a different flavor), so if you play music that relies on those you have to make a big adjustment. That can be an opportunity, since now you have to get creative with how you play. A chord over 3 or 4 strings doesn't sound as huge or sparkly as an open chord, for example, but it can be interesting in its own right and of course it also opens up some sonic room if you're into layering many parts together.

The biggest gain is that the scales and chords you learn are now always the same without that b-string bump. A lot of things just have less mental overhead now. The benefits sound less tangible than the drawbacks, I know, but I think it's worth a try. It's pretty easy, just tune your two highest strings up a semitone. And easy to go back if you hate it, of course.


Tuning in 4ths is great for scalar playing. I play in various tunings of 4ths and 5ths, it makes it easier to play fast intervalic runs.
