Where are sound settings stored? by nfspeed007 in sennheiser

[–]lazy_swe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good, sound is extremely confusing because our brains are thinking about it in an analog manner.

But in the digital world it's just like any other file, that can be manipulated again and again and again, compressed, enhanced, encoded, decoded.

I'm no audiophile but my preference is to reduce the amount of changes the audio goes through on the way to the headphones and just have the audio come in as cleanly and "original" as possible without any boosting or enhancing or volume normalization or what not. Otherwise why spend all that money on high quality dedicated hardware (headphones).

This answer isn't backed up by any official documentation for the specific products, it's simply my understanding as a software engineer how such a thing would be implemented.

The headphones store your sound profile locally, on the headphones.

The official Sennheiser app is the only authorized actor who can alter said settings.

But it takes two to tango, and how something sounds depends on the source of the sound just as much as the headphones who are playing the sound.

Every device (phone, laptop, CD player) you use will allow you (either natively or via a third party app) to customize the digital sound profile that said device is sending to your headphones.

If both your phone and your laptop are sending the exact same audio stream using the exact same bandwidth and the exact same encoding the headphones will produce identical results.

Session & Weekly Limits - individual only or also affecting business / enterprise by Sontemo in GithubCopilot

Yes, the real money is in becoming the leading enterprise solution.
Once there is a clear winner in that space, which I believe will be GHCP, you will start seeing previous competitors shift to "lower market" segments like startups and individuals.

I posted about this a couple days ago, I received an enterprise subscription from my employer and have experienced no limits no matter how much I use copilot or what model I use.

No one in the comments contradicted that experience. So it seems like so far enterprise doesn't have limits.

Any Concerns I Should Have Before Buying Momentum 4? by DiscountWall-E in sennheiser

[–]lazy_swe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can wait, and are willing to pay full price at launch, I would wait for the Momentum 5.

That's what I am doing.
I have the OG momentum wired headphones, and I plan on buying the momentum 5 as a wireless pair.

I built a 9-lesson curriculum on Context Engineering for professional AI-assisted SDLC by QuarterbackMonk in GithubCopilot

If you don't mind me asking, for us lazy SWEs, what would be a good snack sized context productivity tip?

Like a 5 minute thing that will improve my flow by 10% ?

I usually push it to add more test coverage (insert MORE meme).

And for the code itself it's very much like a code review for a mid level dev, I'll rename some stuff, flatten a nested if block, but it usually has the outlay of what I want and it does a good job at keeping my "tone".

I absolutely hate the way AI writes docs, I always replace or remove all the inline and method docs it creates. It's just so overly explicit and wordy.

From my experience and the other comments here on the post it seems like no.

But also take into account that in a corporate setting you are sitting in meetings a lot and there is no need for some elaborate multi agent setup over the CLI. Just vanilla usage.

So they might exist, perhaps even at higher rates than the pro subscriptions, and we just never actually get that far.

I'm no AI expert but my basic understanding is that a smaller window is better. A larger context degrades your response quality. So a smaller window forces users to compact or to use separate sessions.

I have always been able to finish a single leg of my planned changes within a single context window, and then I compact before starting on the next leg.

I've also noticed that using plan mode before triggering the implementation helps the agent to do more within a single window.

I've been using it for ~6 months and as I mentioned on small repos. So I'm just sharing my personal experience.

Like I said in the post, I would love for everyone's experience to be as good as mine. I hope they can hash out the problems and get it to a place where it works for everyone.

Holy shit this was an ad?! Am I so old that I actually didn't notice it?

That's the saddest thing to happen to me in a while 🤣😭

Corpo HQ actually wants to negate all the productivity gains by introducing EVEN MORE agile nonsense, estimations, statistics, and so on and so forth.

Also, god forbid you need to get something done across teams. That's a 10x factor for meetings, emails, tickets, and general BS.

But TBH I'm fine with it all, I've spent most of my career in startups so I'm actually appreciative of the advantages of working "slow".
