another main use for theory is to communicate about musical concepts, for example, a lead sheet in jazz:
gø | C alt | f-∆
or, to abstract this further:
ii ø | V alt | i-∆

"tonic" is another way of referring to the "key" of the song.
in fact it doesn't even have the right amount of lines
trauma is a collection of symptoms, biomarkers, and behavioral adaptations.
this incomplete metabolization is trauma. the event or events are not the trauma.
developmental trauma is an epidemic in western society - this is what the presence of ACEs screen for.
I don't think 100% of humans are explicitly traumatized but most humans will have some degree of hypo- and hyper-arousal type activation of the central nervous system in response to different situations and their history. some much more subtle than others.
I mean, I get what you're saying in that doubling a value several times is relatively easy mental math, and at the same time, this whole thread strikes me as overcomplicating something that doesn't need this much complexity and abstraction.
When working from home, you don't drive anywhere. That's a distance of zero miles traveled, whether they are virtual or real. I think the calculation you've shown doesn't really add to the point you're trying to make.
The traditional way to consume this medicine is orally - through chewing on the leaves or taking a tincture. The onset is much slower and gentler, and provides ample space and time for the some incredible visionary experiences to open and unfold in a much safer container.
I didn't make this feature; I don't have the answer to your question. It was intuitive enough for me to find it on my own without reading any documentation. So, shrug.
> It works fine for songs that modulate.
By definition, modulation is the act of not remaining diatonic. Modulation = changing keys. Diatonic = staying within key.
So, no, we don't need to assume anything about diatonicity in order to successfully do harmonic analysis using Roman numerals.
Also, in this way we can say "C major" or "C minor" to refer to the key of the song. We use "natural" when its important to distinguish from a note that has a sharp or flat - e.g. C# versus C natural.
In Italian, how would you refer to the key of Db major - "Db natural"? How would you refer to the key of Db minor?
It called me to contemplate, and realize that I hold the opposite axiom – that all beings, including humans, deserve respect fundamentally. Some people might behave in ways that call this into question and modify the degree to which I feel I can truly hold respect for them, but that only happens with more information about how they are organized or disorganized.
If it is causing you actual (physical / emotional / psychological / spiritual) pain - why continue to inflict that on yourself? You are in charge of whether or not you choose to use Google, nobody else.
However, I doubt that pain is the clearest or most precise way to express what is happening here. My guess is that a better word would be "frustrated" or "angry" - emotional reactions that are potentially uncomfortable (so, OK, a form of pain), depending on one's capacities and experience. Those reactions are completely and totally valid.
I find it so funny how something so relatively trivial and ephemeral is turned into such a personal affront. Nobody is trying to inflict pain on you with their user interface desicions.
As evidenced by this thread - he was inspirational, and I appreciate that so many people here got that from him. And, yeah, I've heard a number of stories about how he treated women and his first wife that are just disturbing and sadly completely unsurprising, given the norms of our society (that are thankfully being shaken and revisited at this stage of human development, it would seem). This made me lose a lot of respect for him.
It started when I was a grad student in physics at U.C. Berkeley, he came and gave a lecture. He ended it with a tasteless sexual joke / pun, the kind that you would hear from a clueless teenage boy. I was really thrown off by that.
It's so fascinating to me that we've fallen under the very real illusion in these modern times that "classical" music has virtually no concept of improvisation, that most of the primary elements of music are completely fixed, static, dead. That's definitely not how it used to be.
When I saw it, I didn't know what "our" referred to, until I read it - I didn't assume that the use of this word necessarily implied it had anything to do with my arbitrary country / community / culture / etc.
I think it's a great policy to not provide free poison to your employees, let them pay for that themselves.
