My dad Daniel Louis (Steel Pan Player) released his debut album in the 90's, and with young ears, I thought it was all great. 'He was famous, he was my dad and he was on CD'! As it turns out with grown up ears, none of the mixes are particularly nice, and so in 2023 I asked him if I could try my hand at mixing one of my favourite tracks from the album, Congo.
Here's a 12-minute comparison between the official CD mix and mine, which I did using all stock plugins. Since Mastodon will inevitably screw up the audio in this, here's a dropbox link to the same file if you wish to listen offline: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/r6fmsnvjeurfns9kxy2q7/h?rlkey=sunzzm4e2gjzhye8hp9hy5y8w&dl=1

Were base rate fallacies more or less likely when people were reading in a foreign language?

Not among a couple hundred European Portuguese bilinguals, regardless of whether the emotional salience of the lure was exaggerated.

Moralizing Nostalgia Leads to Bad History – and Helps the Anti-Democratic Right

David Brooks’ “How America Got Mean” offers an ahistorical tale that obscures rather than illuminates – and provides fertile ground for a politics of reaction.

A thread, based on my new piece: https://thomaszimmer.substack.com/p/moralizing-nostalgia-leads-to-bad

SallyStrange,

@Robert_R_Freitag_II Oh dear, I do believe you're doing a logical fallacy! No other way to characterize answering the question "Why do you think a political movement that's against welfare and minimum wage increases would support UBI" with "So your idea is that there should be one single policy that solves everything? That unless there is one complete solution for absolutely everything available instantly and all at once, it means nothing?".

Unless I'm missing something, this is a classic by way of a .

Stop asking: Do Starbucks workers really need to unionize?

Start asking:
-Does Starbucks’ new CEO really need a pay package worth $28 million+?
-Does he really need to be paid 800x Starbucks workers?

@rbreich Also for what does he get 800x the amount of the workers' pay?

He isn't going to generate an equal amount of revenue or profit that makes him 800x more productive...

One question for music composers: how do you work with leitmotifs inside your favourite DAW (regardless of the DAW you use)?

What I'm doing myself is the following: I work on a single project file (in Logic) with multiple tracks and different sounds/instruments that are muted, with all the specific leitmotifs I want to use, so I can just copy & paste from track to track. But I'm sure there must be a better way for doing so. Any help?

has anyone written up an explanation of Yoneda in terms of logic? in particular it seems like a “metatheorem” about category theory with a similar kind of structure (and implications) to cut and identity admissibility as metatheorems about logics. is there anything there?

The constitution allows voters to amend the state by . Today Ohio votes on a referendum to amend that provision of the constitution.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/08/08/ohio-election-issue-1-abortion/

The big issue is that want to make more difficult before a referendum hits the ballot next fall.

But in case you're fascinated by the legal/logical puzzle of using the amending clause of a constitution to amend the amending clause, I wrote a book about it in 1990.

If you don't have time for a book, here's an essay-length summary (also OA).

Why does this question deserve a book? I address that in the "Why Bother" section of the preface.

Can the civic and rational benefits of discussion and argument mapping be combined?

Platforms like BCause and Kialo attempt to find out.
