Zero mention of actual compliance standards or HIPAA on the launch page of a product that is supposed to interconnect with medical records other health apps! No thanks...

This 1000%! Two of the most important relationships I've made (my wife, and a boss who hired me, and later became one of my dearest friends) arose when I decided to act completely differently in the moment than I habitually would. In m

I agree, and... Completely off topic, but thanks for creating AudioMulch, I don't use it actively anymore but it totally revolutionized how I approach working with sound!

You are awaiting precise instructions for when exactly you should put your hands in the air?

Ouch, this really hurts! Talk about someone who knew how to serve the music and make everyone around him sound absolutely fantastic! I've been on a Booker T & the MGs kick for the last few months so have been immersed in the minima

I've had about 400 Windows HP laptops/200 desktops through my hands running IT for a nonprofit. They are not perfect, but the different models (from cheapo plastic-case 12/13 inch to top-of-the-line metal cased "16 inch

It's honestly hard to think of a better title for the definitive Anthony Bourdain biography then "Felching Mrs. Butterworth"!

Interesting, will have to look/listen to this in more detail later, but I found it odd to consider Slonimsky's "Thesaurus of Scales & Melodic Patterns" in the context of multiplication because he presents it as divis

Love it, beyond the Baxandall I kinda sort miss just a single passive "tone" treble-cut control, often found on low-end cars like the '92 Tercel I drove into the ground. It's not the same as having bass/treble/

FWIW - I have seen several symphonic shows this last year, and will see a few more - they happen to be local orchestras accompanying Beck or The Blackstar Symphony (including musicians who played on David Bowie's final album). Beck&#x2

Haha, I was envisioning a huge backline of Marshall stacks and Ampeg SVTs blazing away, with the rubbish riding the soundwaves off into the sunset...

Haha as a car enthusiast, whenever I see "turbo" my next thought is always the inherent downside, "turbo lag" (the non-zero time it takes for the turbo to actually kick in)!

Spoiler alert, from the article: "...both men and women tend to focus most on the intergluteal cleft, commonly known as the butt crack."

I'd say "specific format surround mixing" like 5.1 or 7.1 is mostly an afterthought, but Dolby Atmos (which is "mix once and it automatically folds down properly to the actual number of atmos speakers" has become hu

I wondered the same thing...FWIW under Samsung the pro/pro-sumer audio Harman brands (JBL in particular) have managed to keep making well-regarded products from consumer Bluetooth speakers up to live PA systems and studio monitors. On

I was going to say something similar - I think there will still be some market for high-quality audio preamp/receiver/mixer-type devices that have actual EQ/tone controls rather than endless menus, and focus on actual fidelit

I'm not saying I will give Barlow a pass, but since my first awareness of him in the '80s was as one of the Grateful Dead's lyricists - to me he is a psychedelic poet. TBH I prefer Robert Hunter's GD lyrical work, but I

My experience is different, I worked at a ~$20M company where I was told the incoming CEO came from a company close to $1 billion. Curious, I searched his name immediately and found that he was under active SEC investigation for withholding

A patina of filth, slightly faded paint and maybe a few dings and dents also help make a car invisible.

For a book for adult learners I recommend (and am working my way through) Ivan Savov's No Bullshit Guide to Math & Physics. Here's a link to a sample from the author's site. I find it a great resource for brushing up on m

Interesting, I'm into physical modeling and learning DSP. I did notice glitching in latest Firefox on a Mac, like I'd get running a DAW with too small a buffer...While the tab was open I got similar crackles and slightly delayed a

I was going to say the same! I got it years ago, it's hard to top a math book with a quote from a certain Al Einstein on the back cover singing its praises! Morris Kline's "Mathematics for the Nonmathematician" takes a s
