1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions.
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen.
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,

i have to buy a used midi controller for $100 - a miniature model of the $600 one I already have.
I can't buy a comparable new one for $100 because all the new ones are USB only.
How the heck do musicians use their classic synths with these new devices?
USB doesn't really let you do MIDI-thru, or a midi intercept like my prang box needs to.
It's mostly only good for hooking stuff into a PC or laptop.

I just realized that some of the CPians are responding to my post with a ...
I decided to make a list and hold you to your word when I'm around...
It would be fun as I do not drink alcohol for years now, so I will be drunk in on time

I do not search backward so the list still empty - but it is decided...
(what not decided yet is where to start my global tour - as one, who barely leaves the house and the forest it would be an other interesting challenge)

I know what you mean - I don't even have a passport anymore (which I use as an excuse to not have to enter England).

i'm only curious as i just got here and after a good 4 hours I've recieved no response to one of my own. I realize sometimes it takes a while for people to reach a concrete solution to a problem, but i've not been asked for clarification or anything on it either so maybe it just takes days for anything on this forum to get noticed or maybe there's some setting whereas my question cannot be seen because i'm new.
this is the place for those kinds of questions right?

Answers are coming from people, who do it voluntary in their spare time...
It is also possible that nobody has an answer at the present time...

Well, it's a Sunday so most of the Western world is not working. It's also early in the morning here, and late night for the US so that doesn't help you get an instant response.
Then there is the question itself:
Quote: How do I calculate the wind direction and speed based on 2 pressure fronts using python's math module?
hi thank you for checking out my question, it's a really simple question but i'd like to know how to calculate the wind direction and speed of that wind given external factors such as pressure fronts. any help on this matter would be appreciated.
What I have tried:
so far I haven't tried anything, i'm merely at this point testing the community and how it will react as this is my first post. i came from stack overflow and was hoping for a an alternative to that community as it has become far more strict, ridiculous, and in general is just kinda dead and useless now.
It's vague, but specialized - you need Python developers who work with meteorology to read it before you get a reply. And adding "so far I haven't tried anything" doesn't help you at all because it generally comes over as "I can't be bothered, do my work for me". And there is no detail at all!
Then you go on to slag off SO which (although I might agree with the sentiment) isn't a polite thing to do, even if they are a "competitor site".
So ... you want "your work done for you in a specialised area, in a specific language, and if you don't get it you'll slag CP off somewhere else" is the way your question reads. That may not be how you meant to write it but that's certainly how I read it!
Would you want to spend your personal time to answer such a question, even if you could?
