Developer's Corner / Re: What's your Programming Language?
« on: November 14, 2009, 06:42 AM »
My favorite programming language is Java.
Oh God why?  ;D

It's a bit like C/C++ in many ways.
... except that you can write efficient and fast code in C++.

I'm curious about delphi... is it also an open source language?
Not actually. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embarcadero_Delphi

what's the difference with a scripting language and a programming language?
Scripting languages are usually made for a certain purpose.

Each and every manufactory is working at heir hardest to get lower quality, not higher.
... which is multiplied with a constant factor every time something gets "remastered", see the latest Beatles remasters with the cut-off peaks...

FLAC is an open, license-free format, MP3 is not. Unless they'll change that, they'll fail.

These wizards have the impressive disadvantage that they don't allow an actual modification of the chosen settings. Ease is not a pro here.

OMG, MP3 lossless. There is WavPack, there is FLAC  :-* and there is Monkey's Audio. MP3 is for instant, mobile playing, not for archiving. (And the MP3 codec is still not license-free.)

I wonder when there will be "Ogg Vorbis HD" ...
