    These comments cannot be real.
    Anyway, that first example was very helpful in understanding it.

    Random, but I recognise that yarn. I made myself a scarf and hat (plus a matching hat for my daughter) out of it a few years ago, when I was on a knitting kick.

    • @MikaeruDaiTenshi

      How do you recognise that specific yarn? Isn’t yarn just yarn?
      I mean, obviously you can have different material, colour and thickness, but your claim is either really strange, or really impressive.

    The craziest part to me isn’t just that he can do these so easily, but that he can out loud count the beats without screwing himself up. I can’t speak out polyrhythms that easily (the only ones I can do without getting screwed up are 2:3 and 3:4)

    I was once in a clarinet lesson doing quintuplet scale exercises, but my notes were uneven, so my clarinet teacher asked me to put on my metronome and taught me 5:2 just for fun and for the sake of subdividing and playing more evenly. It was kinda out of left field when she started doing them, she said it was like a fun game during her commute to do them in her head and on the steering wheel

They cover everything from the Japanese fish-killing technique that became a startup thesis, why American fish is now being imported into Japanese fish markets for the first time ever, and how Founders Fund thinks about contrarian bets in food and agriculture.
