I saw this one a while ago but still check it when I’m doing something that seems trivial but probably has many edge-cases.

    Oh I would mess this up so bad because I know very little about music. It’s funny because, in trying to develop something, we’re always trying to find absolute rules and restrict the user into our scheme and sometimes it just makes worse software.

    I liked the point about “Okay, maybe not with European notation.” So many of these falsehoods are about cultural differences and, so often, we project our local understanding of a problem on the whole world. I mean, my first thought would be “they need some staff lines where they can put notes” but that’s not true for everyone.
