Well, of course.

But I was talking about listening directly, not via a microphone.

The whole point of the device that the white noise is not evident to listeners in the vicinity. If it was, people would not be able to speak to each other.

Which means that it's caused by intermodulation in the crappy microphone. Therefore a better quality mike (and a LPF) would remove it.
What's the prediction on your green goblins hypothesis. Specifically, how does it differ from Newton's?
My ex-wife is black African, and we live in the UK, and she's on a number of occasions had white British people "correct" her when she described herself as black and offer up "African American" instead. At which point she'd tell them in no uncertain terms how annoyed that made her exactly because they were either blindly parroting something without thinking about what they were saying or making assumptions about her background rather than asking (as well as, of course, implying they have a right to impose on her how she should describe herself).

I assume everyone is watching. I'm very boring, though, but I still want some privacy.
The problem is, this assumption doesn't seem to be true. Rather than engaging in productive debate, what we've actually seen is lots of dubious attacks and attempted "cancellations" of any scientists who disagrees with the maximally totalitarian position, lots of opaque groupthink and an absolute refusal to do cross-discipline research or debate of any kind.

A good example of how badly wrong COVID science can go was the discovery at the start of the pandemic that the most influential epidemiological model had lots of programming bugs in it that made its predictions wildly vary from run to run. The cause was a mix of thread safety bugs, out of bounds reads, floating point error accumulation, mixing up variables due to horrible coding style in a 15,000 line C file with hardly any comments and almost all variables being single letter/globally scoped etc. They'd never teamed up with computer scientists even though their simulations were big complex programs, their code had never been peer reviewed because scientists don't do that, and when programmers pointed out their bugs, they tried to claim scientific models don't need to be reproducible anyway.

There was no inquiry of knowledge or productive debate. There was a bunch of amateurs, out of their depth, desperately trying to cover up how inadequate their own research was - and mostly succeeding. The institutions turned out to have no interest in the question of whether their scientists can actually program the models they're proposing, and nothing happened to Ferguson or his team.

That's what science is actually like, in the 21st century. Look too closely and it falls apart.
I liked the series, and it told a recognizable story from those years. (I was involved in a small quasi-non-commercial startup in 95 as well, and we saw some of the same conflicts...)

I understand that reasonable people differ on their understanding of the truth. If it's for entertainment, then no big deal. If it's for "justice" then that's what the courts are for: to declare one truth more truthy than all the others. And in fact, ART+COM did lose in court, so...

"The test for patent-worthiness is: “would it be non-obvious to someone who is skilled in the art?” "

Well, nothing is harder to say than if something is "obvious". Locking backward, basically most things are "obvious".

"someone who is skilled in the art?"

This is another questions. What is "skilled"? Most patent courts assume an average person from the field of the invention and not an extraordinary specialist.

Then the point remains in discriminating joke and joke. Especially in the current confusion and climate of manipulation, it is important that people are led to understand what is e.g. mockery of bigotry, vs "bigotry and mockery". Oversimplifying the world and its expression serves no one (it is damaging).

This seems congruent to the object<>closure equivalence. Nevertheless the resulting code reads quite differently. Any kind of early binding to dependencies can read like a “COME FROM” at times (especially debugging time), and all that extra state burns memory.

> why go out of my way to make it not work, when it would be easy to make it work

The problem the DWIM approach to APIs is that when you go out of your way to "do something reasonable" with absolutely any kind of argument type, leaving the caller's intent implicit, you will sometimes run into combinations that "work" in unexpected—and often unwanted—ways.

For example, say you have a function which returns either a Person object or, in very rare cases, an error string. Moreover, you fail to check for the error string, and pass the result into another function which expects a Person object but will also take a name and look up the corresponding Person object in a table. Now if the first function fails you're left trying to look up an error string as a name, with no obvious signs (such as a type mismatch error) to show that anything is amiss.

It's important to make the intent explicit, and not just let the function guess. One option compatible with both statically- and dynamically-typed languages is to provide two functions, one requiring a Person object and another taking a name string. This is still perfectly ergonomic for the user and mitigates most of the potential for confusion.

Make the case for those. This is very pretty pose but it doesn't really say anything except that you think these elements exist without any real criticism to back it.

Airplane! is still funny to me but I've never looked at it as anything more than a well delivered (almost) 90 "anything for a laugh" reel.

In fact, the world building part where they establish the backstory is the weakest part for me as structurally it serves as a pause from the non-stop schtick for most of the present day sections, but the differences are very prolonged jokes that don't survive a first watch in my opinion.

The genius isn't so much the architecture it's the delivery and the speed. You don't get time to fully think through everything that happens and the actors play it straight for the most part. There is comedy atop a functional parody and as soon as the gag is done it moves on to the next progression.

In general I like Zucker and his movies but I think here both he and you misunderstand why his movies worked then and which elements worked. The scene with the kids and the lame "like my coffee" joke is not a good scene not because of the joke's adherence to puritán values, but because the entire joke is "look these young kids are saying things adults should." They can't deliver the lines with the same commitment to the short term deviation from reality and it falls flat.

The joke Zucker references in the article about sucking dick again falls flat for me not because of inappropriateness but because it's a lousy joke for someone not in the room or having that relationship dynamic, it's a weak joke without much substance besides the shock of "[Dad] said suck cock".

It's not about right vs left here, it's about understanding what's funny and why stuff is funny. The discussion earlier on this thread about the German dub is a perfect example where the idea of the funny is what makes it work, even if there is no such thing as jive in German; the core logic of the joke is understoodand that's why the dub worked. Comedy has a logic to it and if it's understandable immediately, it's funny because we get how they got to that point. Even early 2000's random humor had a logic to it, albeit a little out there, but there's a reason that it worked for some flash vids and not others.

Comedy is all of the brain, and arguably even more logical part as you have to get the joke to laugh at it. I think we all know a time when someone got the joke way later because they just didn't process it or couldn't process it.
If you get only 1736 single-core, then you have probably run the benchmark on Windows.

The scores of many benchmarks, especially the scores of single-thread benchmarks, are lower and also much more variable on Windows than either on Linux or on MacOS.

My assumption is that this is due to the fact that almost all Windows computers run continuously many junk programs, e.g. antiviruses and the like, in parallel with whatever you are doing, and those interfere with the benchmarks.

Running the same benchmark on Linux or maybe on a Windows completely cleaned of garbage and with the useless services stopped, should give results well above 1800 in non-overclocked single-thread.

A friend in the music industry told me about a very cool backblaze moment.

They were out touring with an artist in some remote country, I think it was Kazakhstan, when the artists macbook suffered hard drive failure.

They contacted backblaze and for a price that was high (but not insane for a company) backblaze actually flew a guy with a physical hard drive to their location.

Saved ~5 gigs from being canceled, and my friend has been a die hard backblaze evangelist ever since.
