To someone with 0 knowledge of music theory and the desire to learn it, this is kind of useless tbh. You're making a lot of assumptions in this post that aren't very helpful :/

Thanks for the trivia, although your comment on displays is a bit misleading: >I first viewed it on a Linux desktop; on a Mac laptop with Retina display it looks much better though somewhat “light”

There's nothing special about Apple displays that makes them "retina", it's just a (marketing) term they use that denotes a standard for pixel density at a specific distance away from the screen. The point I'm trying to make here is you could have just as easily had a "retina" display on your linux machine, if not better.

Why does news have to be scalable? I don't understand your comparison to medical bills or gofundme either.

Some people can support themselves with patreon but the number is limited

isn't that true for all industries?

Crowdfunding also encourages extreme opinions and bubbles over neutral reporting.

lol wat. you got a source for that?

Happiness is only understood in contrast. On the one hand you obviously want to protect your child and ensure their happiness, but on the other, by doing so, you might be robbing them of the essential human experience. Happiness shouldn't be an end goal to a life, but a byproduct of one. Negative experiences shouldn't be looked down upon and avoided, after all that is how we learn and improve ourselves - by overcoming adversity.

Having said all that, this is an incredibly tough decision to make and is solely up to your family.

I don't get why so many people here are up in arms about commits not actually representing real work or when it was done. The author never stated what he thinks a commit represents and yet so many of you try to find some kind of flaw with his method and ascribe your own meaning to words he never said. Just enjoy this for what it is - a simple histogram for commits in a project.
