You could, sure.
It only assumes that the data is represented in a particular manner. The theorem applies to the digital representation of an audio signal in which the representation is based on the mapping of values to the periodic nature of sound waves. The shape of the waveform is entirely...
The Boot Camp option only applies to Macs running Windows, not vice versa. Just install Windows and OS X on your generic quad core platform and Solaris on the Xeon platform. Virtualization is not an exceptional option, though you could feasibly virtualize Windows in OS X or vice versa depending...
One minute exceeds the typical console gamer's attention span. In a console game, you have about seven seconds before you completely lose the player's attention and he or she stares at the nearest wall and begins to drool uncontrollably.
I see no reason, then, to buy the game upon release. I'll be giving the modding community time to work out a decent set of enhancements while the price of the game drops low enough to be stomachable.
While true, you can't write direct-to-metal on a PC with an X1800. You can get much closer to that on an X360, which means you can get away from the API overhead (mainly hits incurred by locking/unlocking). The consoles are less powerful, but they do allow you do get further away from the...
It isn't "reserved". In a two's compliment integer, the 'signage bit' is simply the most significant bit in a two's complement representation. The actual resolution doesn't change: a signed integer is able to represent the same number of unique values as an unsigned integer. No difference.
Those of you who haven't had a chance to watch the interview, I strongly suggest you do so. I've always admired Carmack, but my admiration for him grows every time I get to see the guy talking about what he does. There's definitely something about the guy's body language and the way he speaks...
Apple's going to have to pull off something impossibly impressive to get me to ditch Google Apps. Some do, however, want the @me.com address for one reason or another.
The value of an ABX test is that it favors no particular result. It's merely designed to test your ability to discern one sample from another. It strips potential bias and human emotion by obfuscating each sample such that you aren't aware of which is which, thus any biased preference for one...
If this is perceptible information in any capacity a properly-administered A/B test will indicate that. These tests can be difficult, relative only to the test taker and will never be 100% conclusive, but what it does is clears out any potential bias. If someone is going to promote the...
Yes, but "QFT" is annoying, whereas is not. Unfortunately the icon looks more like a yellow joystick next to a small beehive than it does a thumbs up :(
In many cases the audible content above 20 kHz is predominantly the result of psychoacoustic dither random noise designed to reduce quantization distortion, shaped (often aggressively) into the inaudible range. Typically (almost universally) this noise is non-harmonically-related, which means...
The mini should be sufficient with a 2GB RAM upgrade. Anything beyond that you don't need. Compiling a typical iOS app is exceptionally quick, particularly now that Xcode runs with LLVM on the back end as opposed to GCC, so you don't need monstrous computing power. You won't need to replace the...
Well, iCloud seemed fairly lame until they described iTunes Match. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any streaming component to it, which kind of kills the potential utility of it all.
At 60 fps, one frame of latency is 16ms.16 ms of additional latency on input updates won't render anything "completely unplayable". Game engines don't all work the same way, however: some may poll input synchronously with display updates while others poll asynchronously. If you're running at...
