Agreed. Also a really clean recording, though somewhat over squashed dynamics. But love those drums...

For those looking to add some deep bass to their home listening, there are really good options available these days. The availability of high power class D amplification means that you can (relatively) cheaply provide room shaking bass to a

Pipe organ music can commonly reach down to 16 hz or so, but for those looking for (slightly) more current music containing truly deep bass here are a few options: Pink Floyd- Dark Side of the moon. The Heartbeat in the introduction contain

This. Even with a giant subwoofer system, 20 hz is more felt than heard. The "deep 808 bass drum" usually centered between 40-60 hz. My Tr-808 was centered at ~53 hz. Keep in mind that a doubling of frequency is an octave, so 26.5

I had the flu a few times as a kid. I didn’t ever think it was that bad. I had the flu 2 years ago and I wasn’t right for a month. As you get older you immune system weakens and 3-5 days of 102-103 fever is enough to make you think you’re d

It also isn’t really compression that’s being used but brick wall limiting. While many compressors can do a form of this, there are still the usual suspects that started the loudness wars-like waves L2 ultramaximizer. For the most part the

I no longer have twitter, but isnt it called DM/Direct message and not private message? I dont condone the spying, but I dont think I would ever pretend to think that my twitter activity is "private".

The funny thing to me is that you implicitly mention something else in this point. The languages/databases you specify are all popular in web/mobile/end user based applications, and almost exclusively never used in enterprise

I live in a suburb(using the term generously) of Houston. Its actually 40 miles from downtown Houston. It is southwest of the city, and when asked where I live, I say "down in Richmond". As a native Houstonian, I can say that this

As a semi related aside, when I was younger I thought that 4 door vehicles were insanely ugly compared to their 2 door counterparts. Now that Im older I think about being pinned in the rear of a 2 door car after being in an accident and I i

I did see the video, and I know the criticisms about the electrical system. I think that is a very real scenario that should be addressed. But not all crashes will cause fire and loss of power in this car. There have already been Model 3&#x

I would not doubt that the build quality of the Tesla is lacking in areas that are cosmetic. Ive seen numerous Model S and Model X vehicles with atrocious panel gaps and things that people coming from the likes of Audi, BMW, MB, and Lexus w

In a somewhat related note. I read the original NY Times article that laid out the case for the fake followers. The combination of good writing, investigative journalism and compelling presentation actually made me feel like they are produc

I interface with SAP quite often, but the name is a different initialization. I also do movie/tv scoring under the moniker Stupid American Pig. Its a juvenile name that I came up with 20 years ago in college, but Ive not bothered to co

I bought AMD about a 9-12 months ago, and sold it for what I paid last week. I was just happy it got back to my purchase price. I was expecting a bump with their recent return to relevance. The market yawned apparently. I am also slowly get

Can confirm. Im in Houston and do what you mention with said track record. I cant get 240/hr, but can get around 175-180 most of the time. I base my rate on 85% utilization of myself. meaning Im working 10 and a half months per year.

You'd be surprised. And what makes you think that the only person coming through a store in the largest mall in the city of Houston is necessarily a Tesla shopper. But largely, just repeated entry and exit into these showroom vehicles

Im still trying to grapple with this one. Its not like Goodyear doesn't have other tires. If they know these things will cause accidents(or over the years learned this was happening) why did they not alter the design? I know it must co

I get this is a subjective opinion, but I happened to be in a tesla store this past weekend. They had a model x on the floor. The seat color chosen? WHITE. It was filthy and generally looked awful, not from a design perspective but a wear a

The irony there is that Audi MMI is android.

I can relate. Luckily for me most of the code I write is .net so I’m not messing with Xcode for anything other than hobby projects.

This seems pretty fair. I think that most of the big 4 tech companies are batting about a b/c grade in most areas. Ive an iMac pro and Im pretty happy with it, I skipped a macbook pro update to go with the iMac pro as my home computer.

I wish it were culturally acceptable to let send people home or for people to stay home when they are sick in the US. I hate seeing people come to work sick because they don't want to be perceived as "weak" or a "slacker

Ive some positions in different cryptos. I bought them with the same mindset that I use when I go to a casino. What do I not mind losing? Its just one more investment vehicle that I plan on riding out for the mid to long term. I may win, I

Its possible that by linking to his article he triggered a re-indexing of it? I wont pretend to know how google works but seems plausible to me.

Have a family of 7 and get back to me on that one. Edit: not trying to be snarky but a use case for a single person or small family breaks down quickly when you have young kids and have special diets(that require an entirely different set o

The TLDR of this is basically that the MacArthur Geniuses have a solid trajectory/purpose in life so the sudden windfall does not seem to affect them in the way that the lottery does to some people. However, while this is certainly a w

Are any 705s running today? I feel like the cost of keeping it up would be prohibitive. I’m also curious as to what tubes are used here.

I’m a independent contractor and work from home. So yeah, my employer is aware :) I definitely have this high on my list especially since I get the money spent right back in tax relief.
