As a mass transit commuter, one has to understand things like these...

What? That looks like all sorts of confusion

Finally someone calling out BS like it needs to be....and of all the people it's Nilay - a big Apple fan boy!
Taking the headphone jack off phones is user-hostile and stupid | The Verge

About time. I agree removing the headphone jack would be a dumb move.

WTF? or as Qbert would say, "@!#?@!"

Rue explained. I'm also using it to get ripped :winktongue:

It's been a while since my last 'Sahib moment', it's nice to be back.

Sahib moment is always welcomed but not from Sahib himself

What, a competition then?

That's very unlikely since I'm not a fan of those. I attended English competition back in elementary and said I'll never do it again. Guess why.

I watched videos where they said that output that was coming from USB was way more clear than from 3.5mm jack.

Let's just hope I don't get too ripped, fear of catabolism is always present

Digital vs. Analog. I used to make iPod connectors that bypasses the analog out and takes the digital out to feed a DAC.

Unless their headphones have a built-in DAC, it's just marketing.

No I meant you will be my competition for jobs and that if you are going to study the same thing as I will

So, boring week behind me. Had nothing to post about so I stayed quiet. Went to school today to get my diploma, cerificate, whatever. Average is 4.7 as I already told you guys, not bad. Though I'll have to do better next year since I plan to go to electrical engineering college, and man they have strict standards.

Not to put a damper on your plans or anything but why electrical? Why engineering is another...

Electrical is the least paid engineering group of the bunch and has the highest level of technical ability.

As for engineering, it's not like it used to be, at least from a work standpoint. It's more about money than about design 95% of the time. I guess it depends where you get a job I suppose. But it's all from an accountant perspective these days.

LaRUE, I love off off topic threads! And I'll try not to talk sports too much.

I do mention sports occasionally, but I like basketball and American football.

When I was in university, I knew a guy from another nearby university who was studying electrical engineering. He was in a local rock band at the time. He works as a soundman at a club nowadays.

Well he'll have a good understanding of the equipment at least.

As you know I'm in the engineering industry as an electrical engineer... so I was just offering advise.

I work for a very large EPMC so that's why I said depends where you work. You're often in a situation where you can work for a smaller company and have a relatively enjoyable job but have low pay or you work for a larger company, make more money but the job can be quite dull.

A lot of grads we have currently are a bit concerned about gaining practical skills. Lots of times with large companies they expect you to take a hit to gain those skills as well. At least that's what I'm finding here in the UK anyway.

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

I got a new interview on Friday

Good luck. Remember the advice MIA and I gave you. Hopefully it's not another one of those group interview situations.

The other two guys in the band were also electrical engineers. Both of them moved out of state, and I don't know what they're doing now.

I've always liked music, so that would be my interest if I were an electrical engineer.
