I've seen a few complaints about the limitations of CAGED so I've been trying to focus on theory rather than just mindlessly learn tricks and regurgitate songs. Having a lot of fun so far.
The book I'm reading (recommended in another comment) does talk about minor forms of CAGED forms, though - pentatonic scale patterns, arpeggio patterns, and chord forms.
It seems contradictory to care immensely about traffic safety but lament the idea of wearing a vest to cross the street. It seems like something that logically we should probably already be doing. Self driving cars are just making it more obvious.
Somewhat unrelated: I’m looking for a comprehensive overview of why the CAGED system works on guitar. I see lots of mechanical explanations of how to use it to play various chords down the neck, but nothing explaining the theory behind it.
Yeah, I like a lot about VS code and it feels far less annoying to use. It just sucks that there's no undo equivalent to undo-tree, the Git equivalents are not up to snuff (I just end up using CLI, which is fine I guess). But gptel is also super useful, and there's no good VS code equivalent I've found for that either.
wgrep is nice, I use it very rarely but its useful. I did not know about wdired, looking that up now, looks very cool, you are NOT helping me escape this damned editor..
gptel is great because it does exactly what you would expect and stays up to date with new models from anthropic and openai. Before settling on gptel, I went through FOUR programs that had a lot of buzz but were not being kept up to date with new models!
gptel has joined magit and undo-tree in being so damn useful and reliable that they are keeping me from ditching emacs, even though I want to.
She came from wealth, dude, her parents manufactured her success at a young age. Did you seriously listen to that music and think it was grassroots success from raw talent?
I’ve spent a fair amount of time with Acme because it’s fun, but you’re not misunderstanding anything. Anyone who unironically tries assert the superiority of their niche editor is delusional and/or full of shit. It’s just personal preference.
It is such a fucking no-brainer. The costs of obesity, both monetary and in terms of human suffering, are staggering. Absolutely fucking staggering. We should be making this as available as humanly possible, NOW.
