Hi,
I come to the group "alt.binaries...electronics" for interesting electronic advice and discussions about same. Mr. Thompson clearly knows much about electronics. However, he seems confused as to the purpose of internet groups dealing with electronics. The purpose of electronic internet groups is guess what: ELECTRONICS. There are many political internet groups. I suggest Mr. Thompson use "political" internet groups for political statements and "electronic" internet groups for electronics. Larry |

First YOU post political crap, then YOU damn someone else for doing the same thing. Where are your electronics related posts? Work experience? Personal projects? |

Did you solve your VHS to CD problem? If not, I've got a machine
dedicated to doing just that...tape in one hole, CD in another hole, push the button and viola. I'll loan it to you for shipping costs. Let me know. Jim |

I don't know what you are asking. You put a VHS tape into one slot,
you put a CD into another slot, you push the button and the machine reads the tape and writes the CD. I don't know what the order of operations is; it may do it simultaneously, or it may read the tape into memory and spit it out after the tape is completed.

You're playing semantics with what was, admittedly, a misspeak on my part in saying "noise" rather than "sound" but, no. --- But yes, since the misspeak was what I was referring to. --- "Noise" is any signal other than the 'desired' signal and that is not only a 'judgment', requiring a sentient being, but eventually, somewhere, directly or indirectly, no matter how remote or delayed, it requires a sentient being to 'perceive' that it is, or was, there. --- I disagree, since what we now call "noise" existed long before the sentient beings populating our planet discovered it. --- It's like "weeds:" a 'problem' I have solved by deciding I 'want' all those things growing in my yard --- But that's just your local redefinition of the much broader acceptance of "weeds" being defined as unwanted plants. --- I know what you're thinking. You're thinking you can 'scientifically prove', without having to be there, that there is always noise but that is no different than the falling tree moving air. --- True, since even if there's no one there to hear the sound of the falling tree, the moving air will still make the universe noisier. --- It's only 'noise' when you attempt to send, and receive, a signal through it and, like my 'non weeds', one man's radio noise is another man's'window into the shape of the early universe'. --- But, unlike your imaginary non-weed-infested field, the noise is there whether you want it to be or not. --- In the latter case your 'noise' *is* the 'signal' and your signal is noise. --- In which case coherent signals become anathema to my measurements and are, therefore, defined as noise. -- JF |
