I HEREBY DECLARE MYSELF AS THE ARBITER OF POPULARITY. MY FINGER IS ON THE PULSE OF SOCIETY. I AM BECOME THE TARGET AUDIENCE.

I thought Musk was the CEO and got excited.

ASCII tab

ASCII tab is a text file format used for writing guitar, bass guitar and drum tabulatures (a form of musical notation) that uses plain ASCII numbers, letters and symbols. It is the only widespread file format for representing tabulature, and is extensively used for disseminating tabulature via the Internet.

Tablature

Tablature (or tab for short) is a form of musical notation indicating instrument fingering or the location of the played notes rather than musical pitches.

Musical notation

Musical notation is any system used to visually represent music. Systems of notation generally represent the elements of a piece of music that are considered important for its performance in the context of a given musical tradition. The process of interpreting musical notation is often referred to as reading music.

If that information is incorrect, please contribute your expertise by editing the entries, because they lead me to believe calling ASCII tablatures notation is acceptable.

Even the article refers to them as notation.

Um, that’s just a screenshot of a ChatGPT session…! WTF? Obviously that’s not music notation. It’s ASCII tablature, a rather barebones way of notating music for guitar.

Our scanning system wasn’t intended to support this style of notation.

People use it to learn/teach how an existing song is played, it’s not intended to actually notate music.

Using something to communicate how to play a song certainly sounds like a form of music notation to me.

(Yes, this is a bit. 💜)

It’s funby that older captchas could be viewed as proof of work algorithms now because image recognition is so good. (From using captchas.)

Compare and contrast.

High-performance traffic management and next-gen security with multi-cloud management and observability. Built for the enterprise — open source at heart.

Sounds like some over priced, vacuous, do-everything solution. Looks and sounds like every other tech website. Looks like it is meant to appeal to the people who still say “cyber”. Looks and sounds like fauxpen source.

Weigh the soul of incoming HTTP requests to protect your website!

Cute. Adorable. Baby girl. Protect my website. Looks fun. Has one clear goal.

Well, it’s the scrapers that are causing the problem.

Tell that to the Castlevania 2 devs. https://lemmy.ml/comment/19720906

You started at zero and went to infinity. If you start at infinity and go to zero then the first prime you got is the largest. QED.

My brain is going to OEIS or angel numbers which are both like total opposites. Number theory or numerology, take your pick.

I hate this. I love this.

If I ever make a game I might put stuff like this in it.

It’s a pretty succinct explanation that links what it is to something most people have heard of (a byte).

Powers of two are the roundest of numbers.

A lot of things arbitrarily limit what they can do to more “human friendly” numbers.

Fascinating! Because this notation is already used by another tool (and possibly more), it might not be as silly as it sounds. From the headline it sounds like some really weird API was added to something.

Happy to see this sort of optimism in the wake of AI causing people’s programs to get bad reviews because the AI thinks they can do things they can’t.

Thanks for the share. Maybe I’m looking too far into it, or just in one of those moods, but this really is oddly inspirational to me.

Uh, yeah, that’s the point of all regulations. To make you not pick bad things.

But abortion? Can’t do that, you’re killing a child!

The one time I tried to manually install arch on a VM years and years ago it didn’t work and I wrote Arch off. Guess what I’m running now? Well, Cachy, but lol. It’s Arch. And guess what? It’s got a simplified install process.

It’s funny because CATV usually means cable television and is coax.
