I've tackled this issue from a bunch of different angles, and have never come to any comfortable conclusion. But one can assume that, there is a semi-random distribution of these t…

Thank you for this! I'm trying to get deeper into open source audio software and programming, looking forward to spending some time with this on the weekend.

> you can't fake empathy I disagree partly, faking empathy and goodwill is a cornerstone of manipulation in politics. However, I agree it's not a long-term strategy and over the me…

"Tully said it’s mostly because of the heavy rain, which carries sewage into Lake Ontario and into creeks and rivers." Yes, this is the problem. Anyone in the GTA can tell you abou…

This is very cool and something I have been curious about for a long time. How is the performance?

The more common term is "entities" or "elves"-and I can't really say I've ever seen them.

Too much probably, doesn't help that I am dissatisfied with my job. I'm going to have to go back to pomodoros for time management.

I'll always love stuff like this, such a fun way to practice without the pressure of finding something to report on.

Problem is the FBI will see people doing this, and most likely profile/track these individuals... Wait, you're one of them aren't you!

An I Ching throwing program was the first program I wrote on my own, and is still an exercise I like to go through when teaching myself a new programming language.

This article sums up my view on this whole issue. I feel that the reason why the authorities are making this into a big issue is to 'make an example' of this case. It indeed seems …

It's my understanding that 24 bit audio can capture the quieter sounds in greater detail than 16 bit. So say if you EQ out a frequency range in order to "zoom in" on a much quieter…

I would be very curious to listen to SACD on some good headphones in a quiet room. Not sure if I've ever even seen a SACD player aside from maybe in the Sony store 10 years ago. Th…

I'm very jealous of your healthy hearing range... I now wear hearing protection, but the damage has been done. When it comes to file storage, I will take a 44.1/48K 24 bit FLAC hap…

From my experience, what matters more than sample rate is 24 bit vs. 16 bit sampling in the recording/production process. Using heavy compression and EQ can mean that very quiet so…

True, thank you for this clarification. I myself use KeePass but it's more for convenience of password generation and storage than anything else.

I always had a feeling that KeePass was likely not much better than a flat text file, or piece of paper with all my passwords on it. Thank you for confirming this.

Now we just need to find a Tor user with enough money to buy EV certificates...

Very fun to practice various cross-scripting and injection techniques on!

Sorry, espresso. People correct me about this all the time. It's such an ingrained habit I don't know if I'll ever be able to pronounce/type that word properly.

This is something one would never see in Europe. In Paris it's acceptable to buy an expresso, or a glass of wine and stay for hours. On my last day in Paris I did this and got a fr…

Self-deception is the hardest thing to contend with in these kinds of listening tests. An edge case might be this person's experience with self-deception in a hearing test: http://…

Yeah, it's likely a terrible idea to start "modding" a pre-built home without consulting builders, getting the correct permits, etc. There's probably few non-nutcase reasons why a …
