Messing around with Bash. I just figured out that if you repeat the command

Code: Select all

/bin/ls
(separated by spaces) exactly N times, and recursively run its output, it will run exactly N times before producing an error.

or could stand for more than a few hours at most...

Haha, brilliant!

If you let:

Code: Select all

one="/bin/ls"
You can increment a variable by:

Code: Select all

y="$one $x"
and decrement a variable by:

Code: Select all

y=`$x`
You can also add several variables by:

Code: Select all

z="$w $x $y"
and multiply two variables by:

Code: Select all

z=`echo $x | sed "s:$one:$y:g"`
What do you do with ill crystallographers? Take them to the mono-clinic!

Right now I'm trying to wrap my head around composing in the 5/4 time signature.

I just finished all of my prelim exams today. Today was my computing one, and I'm ashamed to say in a community like this that I probably did absolutely terribly.

I always imagine this as a tech support forum.

Tomorrow I will take some tests for middle school.

You should really try 5/8 once you're finished with that. I feel like it's one of the most underused time signatures, and I've come up with really interesting things in it.

I've written a song in the 7/4 time signature. 'song'. It was a birthday gift for my friendo a little while ago.

Sorry about the double post.

Today in choir, the director tried to trick us and gave us a sight-reading exercise in 5/4. We failed miserably for the most part, except for me and a few other band people -- we're working on a piece with a long 5/4 section in band at the moment, so we weren't thrown off.

I do love me some 5/8 polyrhythms.

Sort of related, I made this song a few years ago that starts off in an odd time signature, I'm not sure which because I have no idea how time signatures work, but it's like bars of length 7,8,6,8 repeating once it gets going.

Yay, someone else that does origami! I used to do a whole bunch of modular, geometric-y type stuff a while back because I was doing a finance apprenticeship and had access to copious amounts of post-it notes:

Just googled the origami magic ball, assume it's the one you're making, it looks crazy! And difficult to put together

If you want, you could try to make an origami icosahedron. It looks pretty difficult to put together, though:

Everyone was making cubes
And pyramids

I made an icosahedron

I actually have one of those at home. It uses a different construction technique, though.
