Tascam (I think still?) makes DP-03 SD which is basically 8 track digital version of the portastudio. Weirdly enough, with less inputs

That's pretty limited on input count even compared to original Tascam. I'd think having to fuck around with cabling or having whole extra mixer just to swap what it is sent to it might be pretty annoying. One idea to get around th

It would be if you had anything to do with designing or servicing them...

USB1 was designed in times where transistors were significantly more expensive. And in times where laptops or phones or any other situation when you disconnected peripherals were far less common. Like, it still was improvement over PS/

other part of connector 101 is "put the springy bit on the cable, not socket, so when it wears out you replace a cable, not connector" Given how Mini-USB looked I'm gotta say nobody there had any clue about designing connecto

To be fair for very long time most motherboards had RS232 port on headers, just not on back plate.

You have to consider that initially it was supposed to be connector for stuff like mouses or keyboards or gamepads or printers. 12Mbits. But yeah that was only one of many misdesigns along the way. Like making turning ports on and off optio

I think there is probably few percent of revenue to find but person pirating 10 $60 (or now $70) games is not going to buy 10 games when they won't be able to pirate them. They might save up to buy one $60 game. Or wait for it to go on

We had that except it was our own frontend developers. We also had some actual attacks so we made a system that detect anomalies (like more than 50rps per IP) and raises alert. ...which was thwarted by frontend developers again, as they loa

The problem with this type of attack is that you can't really catch it as MITM DDoS protection. You're not seeing any SYN flood, just a bunch of TCP connections (equivalent of say search crawler), that are encrypted. Only after un
