That's a good way of looking at it. The "unnoticeable" part is where more can be teased out: That is, to expect a specification for the desired S/N (signal-to-noise) ratio and bandwidth, and/or bit rate at which th

Many brilliant points. Particularly about Bessel filters instead of Butterworth. And also about lowering Fc and increasing Fs, rather than increasing order. And also about considering time domain as well as frequency domain. The dense in

That reminds me, I once heard a talk by journalist at a hacker conference... I think it was HOPE a long time ago. He said that journalism is a good profession for people with a disposition for hacking. I wonder if that same trickiness hac

Absolutely do not use your own capital for this. Make a compelling presentation and shop it out to investors. Use a mixture of logic, financial figures, and storytelling. Do not start from scratch, but get the most experienced people for

It's got some smooth and color graphics and while we don't get to hear the delightful 1-bit speaker of the Apple IIe, the Mockingboard is much gentler on the ears in this nicely synthesized multi-part song which appears to be cust

it would be reductive to chalk up the sound of the 80s to any one synth. Especially when the Fairlight was responsible for a number of iconic songs: http://ghservices.com/gregh/fairligh/topsong/ This is a g

I was curious, too. Looked it up. Still don't understand tho. >The sizeof in C is an operator, and all operators have been implemented at compiler level; therefore, you cannot implement sizeof operator in standard C as a macro or

I like avocado oil for its high temp, light flavor. It's pricey, but generally it's good to minimize oil consumption for caloric purposes anyway.

It's not only about the sanctity of the work, but the opportunity for other artists to earn a living and for the audience to avoid monoculture. Consumerism facilitates a winner-take-all system where one creator's voice overrides

Your comments about the gear size, etc. are interesting, but I don't see how they're strictly necessary. Can you explain? For example, can't an arbitrarily small gear work as long as the force contributing to the torque is
