Neat, but it has problems following in-universe rules, i.e. fantasy novels.
It's cheap and beginner friendly and very easy to learn. There is an overwhelming amount of ESP32 boards, variants and software which is daunting when you're just getting into embedded development.
That must be the bigest scandal since Watergate-gate.
I used this back in the Vista times and it worked very well. Very similar to how people use WSL these days.

I can assure you that audio codec testing is a through science. Tools such as PSNR, PEAQ or POLQA all have limitations and cannot fully replace a human listener. Those familiar with the topic are often vocal critics of…
Yea same with me. Unless you have a perfect setup this is good enough. Though if you want to do a little experiment, try Fatboy Slim's Kalifornia, the beginning is notorious for destroying transform based codecs.
If anything those tests make it easier to find subtle differences, which is good if transparency is the goal. I don't think that makes them fundamentally flawed. They are used throughout the industry, making results…
I spent half my professional career doing listening tests (MUSHRA and P.800), specifically on test items like Tom's diner. 128 kbps mp3 ist fairly easy to pick out, especially if you can compare it to the original.…

Perhaps it's Gwynne Shotwell's doing. She seems to be one of the few people on this planet who can say "no" to Musk and not get bullied.
I remember seeing published numbers based on instrumented code, but could not find it. I did a quick test with the Google implementation (https://github.com/google/liblc3) which is about 2x faster than Opus. To be…
"Inferior" is relative. The main focus of LC3 was, as the name suggests, complexity. This is hearsay: Bluetooth SIG considered Opus but rejected it because it was computationally too expensive. This came out of the…
I'm glad this was rejected. The author consideres violations of PEP8 to be broken code that doesn't generate exceptions. Lots of people treat PEP8 as the word of god, but apparently have not bothered to read it. "Many…
I've spent hours looking over code before delivering to FAANG. Our company had put a clause into the contract that our code was free of any GPL'd code. It happened before and it was discoved. The whole thing was a very…
If this tool was trained on open source code, what license does the generated code have? At least with Codepilot people were able to generate verbatim GPL code with typos and everything. More importantly, I wonder if…

It's more than a skin. Microsoft put some effort into optimization, like using a segmented heap allocator.
Meteorology is a sub-branch of physics.

Too bad they are chasing all the bad trends (notch, no audio jack, camera bump, flatness over battery size, growing size). That pretty much kills it for me. Especially the audio jack is a hard sell when their mission…
