why do you care that much that other people "reinvent the wheel"?
lucyjojo commented on Film students who can no longer sit through films theatlantic.com/ideas/202... · Posted by u/haunter
If you really care about something, screen addiction does not interfere. A friend of mine has a terrible Instagram addiction, yet has developed for himself a certain degree of cinephilia lately -- we've watched long movies together in theaters and not once has he been on his phone during the screenings. When one has faith that sustained attention might hold more value than that gained by interruption, they tend to prioritize the former.
But the article points out that the students here don't even watch movies themselves -- "students have struggled to name any film" they recently watched. Why are these people even studying film? The inattention is clearly caused by disinterest.
The phenomenon observed here must be caused by a combination of the general loss of discipline (which is the fallback attentive mechanism when interest is absent) and students' disinterest in the field they chose to study. The former has been well known; the latter is worth considering more.
how old is your friend? has he been raised with cocomelon from day 1?
…and still got elected a second time, despite two impeachments on top of all his other legal woes, his previous term, etc...and he still managed to gain more votes each time he ran.
People seem to forget what this says about the other party.
note, - the - other party. the die was cast long ago.
I find this type of posts unproductive, somewhat emotionally exhausting, and generally impolite.
Most of the time open source tools are a labor of love. If the tool is not for you, move on. But self-aggrandizing "this tool is not good enough for me" posts, when you have not contributed, and when you disregard the fact that the tool has been immensely helpful to many others (who might have even started contributing back) just creates negativity in the world for no good reason. Nothing good is created in posts like that (and no, such posts are not constructive critique).
And then there are "the language is dying" complaints -- I consider these the worst of all. A tool does not need to be the most popular tool to be useful. Let's stop chasing hockey-stick curves in all human endeavors.
(to prevent claims of sour grapes: I am not a Scala user, I just find this type of posts distasteful, no matter the target)
doesn't mean those posts should not exist.
that's a guy sharing his honest experience on his personal blog. you have the choice to simply not read the article. it was pretty obvious from the start what it would be, there was no click-baiting.
these posts also provide an honest pulse on reality. for this same reason i won't say your post "just creates negativity in the world for no good reason". your post gives some kind of feedback on what some real people think. my post is just meta+1 on this honestly.
lucyjojo commented on How problematic is resampling audio from 44.1 to 48 kHz? kevinboone.me/sample48.ht... · Posted by u/brewmarche
Changing the sample rate of audio only affects the frequency range. All audio signal is _perfectly_ represented in a digital form.
I am ashamed to admit this took me a long time to properly understand. For further reading I'd recommend:

in theory yes, in practice no.
the article explains why.
tldr: formula for regenerating signal at time t uses an infinite amount of samples in the past and future.
it seems simply unproven, but plausible to me.
