At least one person was killed in the southern port city of Odesa after debris from an intercepted missile fell on industrial buildings.Ī Bakhmut breakthrough?: Ukraine's Third Separate Assault Brigade said its recent offensive in the eastern city of Bakhmut has helped it stake out a strong position ahead of Ukraine's anticipated counteroffensive. Overnight missile strikes: Moscow claimed Thursday that it struck “foreign-made weapons and equipment” depots in overnight strikes on Ukraine using “high-precision” missiles. Ukraine earlier claimed it had intercepted 29 out of 30 Russian missiles that were fired overnight, including over the capital Kyiv. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said the next two months will be “decisive” when it comes to the future of the deal. After the agreement, Russia renewed threats to let the deal expire if Western powers do not meet its demands to lift certain sanctions. If you're just now reading in, here are other headlines you should know:īlack Sea grain deal: Global wheat prices fell Thursday after Ukraine and Russia agreed to extend a deal allowing grain to be exported from Ukrainian ports in the Black Sea. There's speculation that the counteroffensive may already be underway. The country's much-anticipated counteroffensive appears imminent as the Ukrainian military says it has made gains along the conflict's frontlines in recent days. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky hinted Thursday that his military's offensive brigades are gearing up for a fight, but offered no concrete information. The new amount will likely mitigate the need for Congress to pass an additional assistance package before the end of the fiscal year in September. Now, due to this revelation, there is about $5.3 billion still available, far more than even the largest single package provided to Ukraine. The Pentagon previously said there was just over $2.3 billion remaining available for Presidential Drawdown Authority for Ukraine. McCaul and Rogers said that the administration should “make up for this precious lost time by using these funds to provide Ukraine the DPICMS and ATACMS they need to fuel the counteroffensive and win the war.” These funds could have been used for extra supplies and weapons for the upcoming counteroffensive, instead of rationing funds to last for the remainder of the fiscal year,” Michael McCaul, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs committee and Mike Rogers, chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, wrote in a statement Thursday. Its probably over-simplified, but it makes sense to me.“The revelation of a three-billion-dollar accounting error discovered two months ago and only today shared with Congress is extremely problematic, to say the least.
This is how a guy who designs DACs explained it to me. That’s why the assumption that “bits are bits” and “all bit-perfect players should sound the same” breaks down. That’s why Audirvana has provisions in the SysOptimizer to shut down other processes, such as Spotlight indexing, to minimize the electrical noise. So, when your DAC chip uses the stream of bits to reconstruct the analog wave form, the points on the wave end up a little bit to the left or right of where they should be, causing a loss of clarity. This causes some bits to be slightly too close together or too far apart, timewise. As a result, these noise waves can slightly raise or lower the level of the digital audio wave and can slightly speed up or delay a bit’s recognition. However, electrical noise in the computer also sends out small electrical waves, and wave heights are additive. When the wave crosses a certain threshold level, the bit is recognized as having been received and can be processed. In reality, however, the wave form at these transition points is not vertical, but steeply sloped. Ideally, the transition between the two voltages should be instantaneous. Those digital bits are sent as analog wave forms that alternate between two voltages, representing a “1” or a “0”. With the streaming of audio signals, it is not just a matter of what bits are transmitted, but also their timing.
