we have C#, where the hell is C♭?

Something, something, just intonation something.

[–] dcat@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

this deserves many more upvotes haha

[–] cod@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I prefer Ax

Does it pronounce "C flat"? I'm not fluent in musical tongue.

Last time I fingered A minor I went to prison

[–] FederatedSaint@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I've done that too, but I didn't go to prison because I was a minor at the time too lol.

But that raises a good question...does an adult remembering their teenage sexual escapades fondly make them a pedophile?

Yep c flat or b sharp. If the octave has a half step between notes (a full step is A to B, B to C, etc), then a sharp/flat is created. The octave dictates if we call it a sharp or flat, but from a mathematical perspective they are the same tone.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Lol but there is no c flat or b sharp. There’s no half step between them. Just like E and F.

That’s why those black keys on the piano have gaps between them.

I thought it was neat when I saw that C# was just C++… ++.

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 24 points 2 years ago

This is the first time I've seen it like this, and I've been using C# nearly daily for over 10 years!

c matrix and c tesseract can be cool names

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I feel like we missed C Squared and C Cube, which would have been a cool name. (And probably also would have sucked.)

Does C# get used outside of Microsoft.Net stuff? I never liked the idea of being locked into something proprietary

[–] brakenium@lemm.ee 27 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You can definitely write C# code based on all open source things. Microsoft open sourced C# and it is used on Linux too

[–] fred@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yep. Cross platform Unity game engine also. No fences keeping C# in Microsoft land these days

[–] aracebo@unilem.org 3 points 2 years ago

This is good to hear! Thanks for the clarification!

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 17 points 2 years ago

Scripting in the unity game engine is done in c#

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

You pleabs are still on C(++)^4? Real men code in C(++)^11. Some of those dimensions are so small they don't have deterministic outcomes. You write a "Hello, World!" program and you accidentally hack Taco Bell's payroll department. Shit's crazy.
