For my 8th sketch of Mathober2025 (curated by @fractalkitty) coded in #LiveCodeLab, OctoVsHepta takes the prompt of “Octagonal/Heptagonal” and showcases side by side, a figure that has 8 sides to it and another that has 7 and how they slightly differ.

#Poetry

Octagonal with slightly more
Heptagonal with slightly less
Similar in the creation process
But differences can be seen as the time soars

me: i will just find the 5v rail to tap off for this very small mod...
me 2h later: my brain is not analog enough to follow all this 🙀

screenshot of a vintage schematic, with components at all angles and lots of very long lines going everywhere. there are 4 areas that might be linear voltage regulators made of discrete zener diodes and transistors.

i still think i'm gonna try and get a 2TB nvme m.2 drive next month and clone my OS drive to it, 512GB was not enough

with one drive dying, i decided to check on my 8TB drive that's being cached by a 250GB SSD (primoCache)

i didn't realise the SSD cache would also spread wear between the two drives (obvious) so they're both doing really well, wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

This is the little legato/economy pick drill that's doing my nut at the moment! I'm finding that getting that G-F-E on the third beat reliably clean, well-articulated and timed precisely is very challenging.

It's listed there at The Universal Tempo (120bpm) but honestly it's tricky for me at different speeds. Slower, the timing is harder. Faster, getting clean articulation is harder. (And, uh, the timing is still hard!). It's the economy pick, the two consecutive upstrokes, that messes with my timing, and I find the pinky-to-ring pull-off is the hardest move anyway; especially if the middle finger has just been engaged.

#guitar #music #practice

Guitar music and tab, 120bpm, standard tuning, eighth note triplets, as follows: * A B C (7th fret 4th string string, downpick the A, hammer the rest) * D E F (7th fret 3rd string, downpick the D, hammer the rest) * G (8th fret 2nd string, upstroke) * F E D E F (10th fret 3rd string, upstroke for economy pick, pull-off/hammer the rest of the notes)

I think the key - as usual - is perfect arched form to avoid muffled strings from the fleshy bits of the finger, and improving the relaxation of the left hand to minimise the effect the middle finger is having on what the ring and pinky have to do.

EDIT: oh, and the slight pick slant change to make sure the transition back from the 2nd to the 3rd string is smooth, so you get an even sound and the timing isn't thrown by the pick "catching" under the string.

Ultimate goal for this one is to be able to nail it at 200bpm. My "repeatable, sloppy but ok" speed is 160bpm at the moment. I can do single reps with shonky articulation at 200bpm, and a bar's rest between each one - so I don't think it's actually too far off.

@selzero The vibe coder.
Moves to a completely random tile. if there is a piece on the tile it gets taken out and the player owning it cannot move the next turn. (Can even take out your own King if your unlucky)

@feoh I think for my terminal I use catpuccin Mocha but then override black to be Fully Black 0x000000 instead of the almost-black specified by default.
