Alan Watts by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated +Created
While listening to endless hours of vaporwave while coding, Ciro Santilli spotted some amazing Buddhist-like voice samples, and eventually found that they were by Allan Watts.
Self-help? Maybe. Cult leader? Maybe. But at least it is one that Ciro buys into.
Is there a correlation between software engineers and Buddhism and liking the dude? Because this exists: wattsalan.github.io

This is not a label that Ciro Santilli likes to give lightly. But maybe sometimes, it is inevitable.

Bohr-Sommerfeld model by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated +Created
Refinement of the Bohr model that starts to take quantum angular momentum into account in order to explain missing lines that would have been otherwise observed TODO specific example of such line.
They are not observe because they would violate the conservation of angular momentum.

MIDI by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated +Created
In simple terms, represents keystrokes of a piano, but it can likely also represent other effects (TODO confirm: bend, vibrato, slides, attack strength)
Can contain multiple parallel tracks as seen from the Wikipedia example: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:MIDI_sample.mid
You can see what it contains well with GUI music editor.
MIDI is fun. It is a basic high level representation of most instrumental music, including beats.
To actually listen to MIDI, you need a software synthesizer, which knows what sound to make for each note. One way to specify such instruments is the SoundFont file format.
AI alignment by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated +Created
As highlighted e.g. at Human Compatible by Stuart J. Russell (2019), this AI alignment intrinsically linked to the idea of utility in economy.
Think different by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated +Created
Of course, this only made sense when Apple was more of an underdog to IBM, and Ciro Santilli greatly admires their defiance of the norm.
As of 2020 however, Apple is kind of on the top of the mobile world, and Think different simply makes no sense anymore, notably because it relies on closed source offline software used by millions.
This is a trap every company that prides itself on it's "alternative culture" sets for itself. If they succeed, they could become the norm.

1984 Macintosh advertisement by Apple (1984)
Source. This ad suggests that Apple was the new thinker that would destroy IBM, as Steve Jobs said it himself when introducing the ad: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlQvMp5rB6g. And then Apple became IBM in the 2000's starting with the launch of the iPod and then leading up to the iPhone.
