"Perhaps the biggest difference between the two novels is that Goldratt’s protagonist gets promoted after demonstrating the success of his techniques, while Kim’s is promoted while it’s still clear to him and his manager that he has no clue what he’s doing.

Play It Again, Sam
While the phrase "Play it again, Sam" never occurs in the film Casablanca, the sentiment does.

Instead, they re-issued the original version, recorded over a decade earli…

Initial experiments on a GPU-accelerated parallel CDR PLL filter.
Fundamentally, the problem is that a PLL is stateful so you can't process any given iteration of it without knowing the previous state. I'm trying to work around that by recognizing that the impulse response of the PLL loop filter tails off to effectively zero after a while, so we can truncate and samples older than that point will not materially affect the output.
What you see here is the first pass of wha…

@… Maybe I'm missing a follow up, but I am curious where you stand on the issue?
I'm catching up on recent posts, so I missed the poll. Personally, I've had Gyoza as the main course many times and see no issue there, even though it presents as a perfectly sharable starter or side dish as well.
