Opus also does everything in “48KHz”. But apparently doing some upsampling will implode the whole signal… more so than the compression itself… which indeed is actually processing and storing data in the frequency domain (MDCT).
This is truly a representative of the old internet: somebody codes up the best AAC encoder ever, and the first response comes from some admin, and it's some bickering about 48Khz vs 44Khz.
That's a strawman. I said bottlenecking testing by requiring hand writing is stupid. Put another way - you're meant to be using the test to be thinking and re-thinking the problem and articulating approaches and solutions, not use your time, effort and energy on managing quill and paper.
I’m 40 and forcing students to do handwritten essays during tests has always been stupid. Typing is much faster, why bottleneck ideas by forcing handwriting?
One way to reduce income may be to buy a bunch of stocks with high variance - for any that is in the red during the year, sell and rebuy them. Any that has a gain, leave them be.
There’s so many annoying bugs in Mac OS (like the screwed up window management and alt-tab not working properly), that the notch seems like an odd complaint at this point. The OS is fighting the user constantly, and there’s not much we can do…
It is true cost-benefit for public works projects include the public benefit. But it is often not magnitudes more. Often projects basically scrape by on cost benefits larger than 1.0, after some creative accounting.
And yes, the timescales are larger, but they are still tied to interest rates. A benefit on the scale in 100 years can not be measured over that timescale.
The share went up in as part of the streaming frenzy during Covid, crashed in 2022 like everything else, and has been flat ever since. Basically got a bump for Disney+ for a while, but didn’t create “shareholder value” besides that.
This is a strong argument for a broken status quo. It’s essentially dismissing many possible, tangible, in other places implemented approaches to improve representation, by essentially declaring that fixing the system cannot be done, or must first involve some completely new solution.
