Because there's a certain way to get the sound out without it hurting your throat which can be tough to practice. But I like to tinker around with highs and lows
Distorted vocals are similar in that manner. They're sort of like uncleans, but they're just regular singing that's been processed over and over electronically
18:44
Or via the use of a vocoder

That's one aspect of Ian M Bank's amazing Culture novels I find amazing. Give human beings a virtual utopia in which there is no scarcity or need for conflict, and there's this perverse desire to have problems because we don't have enough problems. I guess there was scarcity of problems so people worked hard to make more.

It's also my observation that most people are so wrapped up in themselves and their problems that you're likely over-estimating how much they're actually thinking about or judging you
as a software engineer if i woke up and just really didn't feel like getting out of bed, i could just take the day off. it'd come out of my pto balance, but as long as i didn't do it too often it was still fine.
but now as devops, i guess it's more like school, where if you don't feel like getting up, you better getcher fuzzy butt up anyway.

Aw man I’m so glad it’s not the old “Certificate of Airworthiness” thing they used to do. There was an 18 month application process for a 12 month license to operate in a 5 sq mi area. For folks with wider operations we submitted *tons* of CoA applications and the FAA got so overwhelmed at some point they halted giving them.
but it's a damn good show if you ever do get end up watching it when you bored or something

This is the economic argument for the government forcing employers to have policies around sick days. Incentives are still weird though, because you want to not incentivize taking more leave then required.
That's why they get to keep the profits. They take the risks
10:15
Every day, a machine could break, a key person calls in sick, delivery vehicle breaks down, etc. And there's always an insurance company that will happily average out those kinds of risks

a particularly dystopian argument would hat businesses design minimum wage labor so it can be executed by sick people without much loss in value in expectation

Well I'm extrapolating a great deal from the one and only time I can definitely trace being quite ill to a dining experience — once in decades. But.... someone was clearly working sick. Beyond that is honestly speculation, but... there's an obvious public health interest in NOT having sick people come to work, especially in the food service industry :P

It doesn't matter how fast you can process data inside a CPU if you can't fetch it equally fast from long term storage.
18:09
Faster CPUs get cheaper much more rapidly than faster drives.

Somewhat, of late, there's also been a lot more focus on both power efficiency and also parallelism. CPUs have gotten quite a bit faster if you're doing stuff like graphics that can use lots of cores.
Mɹ
18:10
Majik ɹɐǝq
Usually the newest fastest CPU becomes bog standard within 6 to 8 months but a new SSD technology can take 3 years to become affordable to the average consumer.
18:10
PCI SSD's have been available for almost 15 years and are still not affordable.
18:11
There's also a lot of intentional clock bumping.
18:11
Manufacturers are starting to intentionally insert more steps in between current technology and their next generation technology so they don't have to do as much R&D.
18:12
If they can sell you a 1.5GHz CPU today and a 1.6GHz CPU in 6 months that makes more financial sense than selling you a 1.6GHz CPU today then selling you a 2GHz CPU in one year because that sells 5 times as much product, one product for each clock bump between 1.5GHz and 2GHz.
18:14
Also for a long time there have been GPUs and CPUs that sell with some of the cores disabled.
18:15
Originally that was because they'd sell chip packages that had manufacturing errors that produced less functioning cores, but then fab processes improved and instead of selling chip packages that were perfect all the time for more money, they started intentionally ruining some of the cores on some batches and selling them as cheaper models.

exactly. Binning's been done for decades, even for non-cpus. Back in the days of modems and BBSes, companies like USR had multiple lines of modems which were incredibly subtly different -- to the point where sending the right text string to the modem would "upgrade" it to the higher-end product

Clock bumping and core locking is a lot more common now.
That was usually v.4x compression enabling, which could theoretically increase data rates using compression but in my experience had a compression rate of around 20%, and v.x also resulted in more dropped carrier problems with softmodems because of FIFO buffer overflows resulting from line noise.
18:23
External modems with hardware compression were insanely expensive.
18:26
Winmodems had a lower theoretical bandwidth limit because they were just integrated sound chips with phone jacks soldered onto them, and the data DAC was locked to Sound Blaster 8bit emulation because the modem driver worked in real mode despite being called a winmodem, and the 16 bit functionality of built-in sound chips of the era only worked in protected mode.
18:27
They could sometimes get up to 33.3 with v.42bis

WInmodems started in the days of 2400bps
18:27
My Packard Bell 486 came with a 2400bps winmodem.
18:28
I eventually upgraded to a 14.4bps hardware modem that I stole from wal-mart.
18:28
It was a Zoom and that fucker was muy rapido.
18:29
With the 2400bps winmodem I could typ faster than the modem could send data so I did a lot of blind typing.
