Haven't found a better way than `./ci.sh` and do as much work as possible to keep github actions/travis/jenkins/whatever from requiring something different than running locally. It's sisyphean.

I know they've made great strides but "Behringer" is a bigger indicator of quality than XLR or USB in that sentence. Blue at least has been making good mics for their entire existence (I use a Snowball too, it's great fo

The results are not horribly surprising, the SM7B has the same capsule as the Beta 57 which is awfully similar to the 57/58.But notice there's a 10-15dB boost below 80Hz on the SM7. They also didn't analyze the off axis respo

I think your fundamental issue might be expecting a phone to be a decent multimedia capture device (phones == content consumption, not content creation). If it's an iPhone and you just care about speech, air pods will be hard to beat.

Using a separate recorder here has the best price to performance for you, I think. Sennheiser has several wireless systems designed for your needs: https://en-us.sennheiser.com/wireless-systems

How would it harm him? I'm sure he's being paid in equity with liquidation preference. His biggest investment is his name on something like this. This happens all the time with low tier VCs (although a few big ones have celebritie

There are a lot of celebrity investors like that. They usually have zero day-to-day interaction with the business aside from a launch blog/press release like this one.

My understanding is that Iran needs high performance centrifuges to enrich Uranium as they do not have an abundance of the stuff, unlike the Manhattan Project. They were able to pile up 50 tons of uranium and light up a lightbulb while othe

Yes, but grep for `Rc::new()` in actual rust code bases compared to `shared_ptr` in C++. Interior mutability is cumbersome and not a natural pattern in practice.

There's a difference between "we know everything will be ok by June 15" and "businesses should plan on reopening starting June 15." 60 or so days is not that far out, it's still cutting it close for a lot of bu

It's probably less about logic and more about law, the US government can't refuse entry to US citizens and would rather prevent a court case that inevitably ends in the No-Fly list being ruled unconstitutional.

I'm kind of curious why this is news today since it pops up from time to time in Rust discussions and seems like no one building software in Rust is that concerned. Total anecdote and a bit of a strawman, but the only folks I've s
