Čtvrtek: Ukrajinský tlak na společnost SpaceX zafungoval. Odpojení Rusů od terminálů Starlink vedlo ke kolapsu komunikace ruských jednotek na celé frontě, zatímco ukrajinské terminály díky whitelistingu fungují dál. Až 90 % ruských jednotek nemá přístup k online spojení. Někde kvůli tomu Rusové dokonce úplně zastavili ofenzivní akce. Rychle se ale snaží výpadek nahradit pomocí domácích technologií, které sice nejsou tak efektivní, ale stále jsou využitelné. Tleskat společnosti SpaceX by ale znamenalo ignorovat, že v první řadě vůbec dopustila, aby její produkty Rusko využívalo, a to často velmi účinně – například, když je Rusové začali montovat na kamikadze drony, aby je mohli nerušeně navádět na cíle po celé Ukrajině. Zároveň je ostudou Ruska, že ve své propagandě hlásá, že bojuje proti NATO, zatímco je v mnoha oblastech závislé na jeho technologiích a řešeních. A na pozadí toho se stalo tohle facebook.com/dnesnaukrajine.cz:

Because I constantly hear myths about the good old compact cassette here's a longer post dispelling them:

1. They can sound as good as CDs
2. They don't wear out
3. You can't use a pencil to wind them
4. You can go to specific tracks automatically
5. You don't need to carry around extra batteries

I will elaborate below:

1. Sound Quality

Many higher-end decks can record cassettes on metal tape with various Dolby noise reduction settings; especially the combination of metal tape and Dolby S will make tapes that are pretty much indistinguishable from listening to a CD.

Even normal or chrome tape with Dolby B (around since the 1970s) will give great results; likely indistinguishable from a CD when played in a car or while out and about with a personal player.

Some extremely high-end tape decks produce better than CD results in some regards (for example some Nakamichi models go to 26KHz+ with frequency response, while CD are inherently limited to top out at 22KHz).

It's true that the dynamic range of CDs is much better than either vinyl records or tapes. However, unless you're super into classical music there's likely not much music for which this truly matters, as 99% is mastered to use much less dynamic range than provided by any audio media format. (If you're super into classical music you probably want SACD or other high-res lossless sources anyway, not CDs.)

2. Yes, it will wear out mechanically but you will wear out mechanically before it does. Please watch VWestlife's video: youtube.com/watch?v=_dgJ4hRHBiw

3. European and American pencils are too thin to engage the cassette reel cogs. (You'd need to get a Japanese pencil. People mostly used BIC pens for this purpose which have the right thickness.)

4. Most (nice) decks and personal players from the early-to-mid nineties onwards have track skip features (e.g. Sony has AMS, Automatic Music Sensor), which allow precise winding to a specific track.

Some decks even did this in the early 80s!

5. My late-90s Walkman has seventy-eight (78) hours of playback on one (1) single AA battery.

Anyway, the main reason why I like them is they're fun to use and recording them is very deliberate instead of algorithms selecting music for me. :)

It seems to be a new thing at work where people send emails with "Here is what CoPilot said". They say that to have something to blame in the case its wrong. I would rather you verify the information first before sharing it with me!

Now I have to do the work to verify the information that CoPilot gave you?

《中国版 N 号房》 NYT 关注了去年引发广泛热议的被称为“中国版 N 号房”事件的 Telegram 偷拍群组 MaskPark。报道称:借助 Telegram 的匿名性、隐藏摄像头的普及和中国在线支付应用程序的便利性,中国女性和女孩偷拍影像的庞大交易正蓬勃发展。人们分享和交易女友、妻子、亲戚和熟人的照片和视频——这种做法在中文被称为“偷拍出卖”。他们还交换陌生人的此类视频。贩卖者常宣称这些影像来自隐蔽摄像头和手机拍摄,或者是黑入监控系统获取的。其中大量涉及偷拍女性裙底的内容,即所谓的“裙底偷拍”。 | solidot.org/story?sid=83483

I saw Sergio giving @janneke a live presentation and Janneke seemed absolutely wide-eyed and amazed. I askeed Janneke "well what do you think?" and he said "I'm absolutely hooked".

Well, I can hardly think of many people who would give a more compelling recommendation than the champion of bootstrappability efforts and founder of the Mes compiler used for those same goals. Seems promising.

*blush* thanks!

I've looked some more at replacing Autotools with Blue (B.L.U.E.?) for Dezyne (dezyne.org) and while we're not there yet (quite possibly due to my lacking Blue skills), it is looking promising, and moreover, it's been real fun!

I have a soft spot for hacking build systems. On the one hand I hate them, but I also really like automization and executable documentation. And I've invested some time in them. But it's always been kind of a fight. M4, Perl, Bash. config.log. Terrible. Also: why??? Then, Cmake came along with it's ridiculous CmakeList.txt, home-grown "language", terrible generated makefiles with absolute file-names, and without any free documentation. Selling *proprietary* documentation as business model. Decided to never touch it! Anyway, now with Blue, we can hack in Guile! ❤️

We wrote a blazingly fast build system based on GNU make for GNU LilyPond, called stepmake, because running autoreconf and automake took 45min. It never took off though. Later, I fully reimplemented LilyPond's build system in scons only to find that after a completed build, it would take "scons build" about a minute to determine that there was nothing to be done. We reverted to stepmake.

Really looking forward to working more with Blue!
