Reading The psychology of software teams by @grimalkina.bsky.social I constantly have to stop and contemplate my experience over the past 40 years and why the life of a software engineer is still so overlooked. "How do we convince our bosses to do more of these things that actually help us?"

Some people claim all is new blah blah. Nothing's new. On system design: * Only change the system if any part as well as the system as a whole is improved. * Redesign must aim at what is wanted, not at what is not wanted. * Creativity is more important than continuous improvement. * Wisdom!

Does anybody know of any amp designs playing PDM through class D GaN FET to loudspeaker? I have just found PWM variants, like Peachtree GaN-1 or Orchad Audio's Starkrimson. Why destroy the signal through PCM? #hifi #highendaudio #electronics #GaN #amplifiers

SuberCoder @subercoder.bsky.social · 12/11/2025
PDM - the most perfect of signals A Pulse Density Modulated signal is a digital signal. But take off your glasses and it's analogue! The density of the 1's is kind of analogue and can therefore be played through a LP filter. I'd claim this is the reason it outperforms PCM, PWM or any other signal.

PDM straight out using GaN is coming! Peachtree's GaN-1 and Carina GaN take whatever digital input, makes PDM and feeds the GaN amplification stage. Brilliant concept and therefore brilliant sound.
