The results are pretty bad for a top stars music video. But it's pretty impressive for not very important short clips like insert shorts of cheap Ads.

I'm scared because that's the most labor intensive area. Top talents will survive but all the volume industry will collapse.


> With a 24/192 Master in FLAC or ALAC, I can downsample to whatever the destination form factor is. I can transcode to a 320kbps MP3, or a 16/48 WAV stream for a smart speaker, or a 24/96 stream for the theater.

I used to think the same. But I realized that downsampling hi-res music to 16/44.1 isn't a transparent conversion. So now I prefer the one downsampled to 16/44.1 by an expert in production env. I almost always download 16/44.1 flac files because of this.


It might not be the popular way here in HN but nowadays I just ask llm to create required configuration files and everything is so easy. Of course you need to review them but tbh no more headaches at least with config files.


> nobody will be able to shut them down.

ASAT can completely destroy it very easily. Then isn't that everyone who can send orbital object can shut them down?


The only countries that can shoot down a satellite are United States, Russia, China, and India.

Is the US going to launch a multimillion dollar multistage aegis missile to blow up a server that is serving illegal gambling?


>Previous liquid-cooled servers were hybrid: GPUs and CPUs got cold plates, but the rest of the system stayed air-cooled, with finned heat sinks designed to shed heat into moving air. In a fully liquid-cooled server, the cooling for these components needed to be completely redesigned to use liquid.

Does that mean the whole server board is running in liquid? If true, how do they do maintenance? Replacing parts must be extremely difficult.


The article implied (but did not seem to ever state) that they simply added liquid cooled cold plates to all the other components that were previously air cooled.

But it did not sound like they were describing a Cray 2 style liquid immersion cooling system.


Because the price tag is like other Ferries.


Because the HW is bad and pricing is bad. Not because SW is bad.


The hardware is best than class in both software and hardware by a mile who is this other company Meta or is it Microsoft with a HoloLens? Long-term iteration is the only way the Apple Vision Pro will get better if it took 13 years to come up with an M1 processor beginning to end and six years to have your first working modem that can be used in a smartphone there are no shortcuts long hard iteration is the only way.


I misread the comment I was replying to; thought they were claiming HW was good, and SW was bad.


> If the price goes up ...

That is what "choke" means in the global economy perspective. Even slight price increase on such material can cause inflation and that's everyone's problem.


That's not possible in most of the parking lots of South Korea. It's extremely dense and no space for big enough trees to shade cars.


> "Daily use—especially during exercise when heat and sweat are present—accelerates this migration directly to the skin."

How about the running shoes? That must have much more chemicals and adhesives although I don't have data for that.


You'd usually wear socks in them, which should mean fabric and less plastic or chemicals. Should...
