Unfortunately.

Did you actually listen to and understand what Trump said? That being a prisoner does not make you a hero?
McCain obviously thinks he can shamelessly denigrate anybody without consequences, and his alleged supporters will howl when criticism is set back to him.

Greek political mess is due to massive entitlement, which believe it or not has nothing to do with liberal politics.

Modern liberalism is very much taking from earners and giving to scum, which characterizes Greece and Detroit.

The destruction caused by liberalism is slower to take hold in Scandinavia because of the climate. In cold countries it's much more obvious that those who don't produce, die. Where the weather is mild, it's much easier to believe that food will come from "somewhere", and if it doesn't, stamping your feet and screaming (rioting) will make it all better. The latter belief is liberalism.

Hiring 100 people and then firing 95 of them is hard on those fired, financially and emotionally. It gives your company a bad reputation and invites a class action lawsuit based on dealing in bad faith. Expect to pay for lost wages, moving expenses, damage to reputation.

Are you ISO 9000 certified?

The grammar is straightforward. It cannot be made to mean exclusion of blacks or women.

"Social Justice" is a leftist program of long standing that will not go away. It is one of the primary frauds they push. For just a hint to its age, listen to Three Dog Night's Easy to be Hard (1969).

I've negligible experience in this sort of failure and recovery, but...
Shouldn't slashdot and sourceforge be entirely separate, so that the failure of one can't bring down the other?
Shouldn't there be live redundant systems, so that when one fails, one of the redundant systems is switched online in minutes? I don't mean just redundant storage, but 3 or 4 systems running concurrently, taking the same input and monitoring to confirm that the output is the same.

Is this too expensive or not technically feasible?

The castanet sound is a standard test for compression systems, and it is notoriously difficult to encode well. Your comment about "modern encoders with correct settings" is valid.

If you don't want Neil or his music, he's done you no injury.

Wrong. He contributed to the destructive political culture circa 1970, the damage from which continues to this very day.

Wire coat hangers are iron based. There's a risk of the magnetic properties saturating, particularly at low frequencies and high current. The result can be significant distortion. The inductance caused by magnetic properties reduces high frequency response. Iron rusts easily, resulting in noise, distortion, and erratic losses at the connection between the coat hanger and other conductors.

The overwhelming majority of people, myself included, cannot discern between a high bitrate mp3 and CD-quality audio.

But there are people who can.

If you've been listening to music at 130 dB, you've already lost the ability to distinguish good from average.

Neil Young has a whiny voice and writes songs with whiny, fearful, petulant lyrics.

drag still goes up with the square of your speed.

Transonic and supersonic flight break the assumptions of D=c*v^2 very significantly.
