I thought they were destroyed just because they rip out the spine to scan them more easily?

Plus you just know in a few months they are going to be stale and reference code that has changed. I have even seen this happen with colleagues using llms between commits on a single pr.

I love data visualizations like these.

OP if you want to improve sight reading faster, I would recommend using non-random notes - context is very important when sight reading and if you get a professional pianist to sight read random notes they will be much, much slower.

Sight reading factory is one site I know that does this a bit better

I think the author is discounting their own design sense which is necessary to come up with the ideas! (Or even to take inspiration from other sites.)

Side note, better not animate with useState when you can use CSS animations, react renders are cheap but they add up and can't match the browser's layout/styling engine!

I am a full stack developer specializing in Typescript. I'm comfortable with bringing greenfield apps from conception/design to deployment, database and api architecture and implementation, web design, and even more niche tech-adjacent fields such as teaching and the arts.

I pride myself on initiative, curiosity and high productivity. I also like playing the viola and studying Chinese :)

Big fan of Payload, which I used (1.x) when I updated my personal website/blog (in my profile) at the start of the year.

It was super easy to implement comments with replies and optional email notifications.

Are we talking about the same thing? I mean the Mongolian throat signing in that YouTube link, which has crazy low fundamentals (I have a deep bass voice and it's much lower than I can sing).

In Taiwan, they don't use Latin script to type, but a phonetic script based on character radicals called bopomofo
