No, compression can't be undone. It destroys information. Especially with a limiter. The mastering chain will have typically done other things to the signal as well.

Had an experience like this while surfing, years ago. I trusted a friend and went out surfing when it was double overhead. Had no business doing that, being a fumbling idiot on a board but trusted him. Made it out and caught a wave and wipe

The ad industry stops at nothing to force themselves in front of our face and ears. The notion that a completely legal counterattack is somehow unethical is profoundly absurd.

There's a wall at my parents house which to me always looked green. I referred to it as green and my sister and mother seemed to get downright angry, insisting it was blue. I don't really care either way, it just looks green to me

Yeah, at least not nearly with the same momentum as smoking etc. But i do think the risks and costs of these new addictions are in the collective conciousness. So it's just a matter of time until a rebellion of mass scale IMO.

Good question - some tools/tech have increased productivity, and others have optimized their ability to drain productivity (in exchange for monetized attention). Sad bit is, I'd be hesitant to trust any scientific studies which tr

There's no doubt that incredible amounts of time are "wasted" by all of our quick dopamine hit apps and sites. These are the new opiate of the masses. It seems to be something we are all aware of, and we talk of unplugging. S

I've been meaning to do something similar, except by generating C code which is compiled JIT. This way the compiler can optimize blocks of 6502 in more efficient ways than just a direct mapping between opcodes and registers. Of course

I pretty much agree. They also feel like shantytowns in a way since they are flimsy pieces of material. I'd imagine that a nicer looking quality framework of wood without the ghastly florescent lighting would go a long way to improve p

I would honestly rather change careers than work in a cubicle. They give me a feeling of deep existential dread. Do some actually prefer them?

I'm one of the coders who will sit down for hours without compiling and end up with working code (doing it right now, I've got a new algorithm which I couldn't wait until Monday to dig into). But there's a process of pre

Could be that you over eat or under eat while working. Or are snacking on something you have a food allergy to. Could be that you're not getting enough exercise. Could be an environmental factor like mold. I've had all of these is

If their only goal is to avoid criticism, not even stopping at breaking California law in order to do so, then they're well deserving of being sued. At some point they need to either be intellectually honest and ethical or pay the pric

Turtles all the way down, yea. The comment that I made IMO applies to each of those turtles. OSS is sometimes done out of a selfless sense of public service, but maybe more often just for the sheer cognitive/emotional drive to solve a

Yeah - I was just thinking "jeez all these people sure like talking about themselves" while scrolling through this thread. Self focus is a great way to push people away and a terrible way to be happy.

The word "presumably" is probably the point where our interpretations diverge. I don't trust Google's black box AI to be both intentionally and effectively trained in a neutral manner. Further, I don't even think ne

It's selling the thing short to say that it has "some" bias. It is quite literally an automatic bias filter. If you happen to love Google's particular biases, that may be a good thing. Otherwise, not good. The terrifying

I disagree -- IMO, the only hope in this case to "end the news cycle" would've been to walk a very delicate line where Google's position in the debate was made known, but nobody was dramatically fired in the process. Ins

I wound up deciding to live in the midwest while working remotely for California companies. Now it's as if my salary has gone up by 200-300%. The midwest gets an incredible amount of hate from west coasters, but meanwhile I'm livi
