Neither the NES nor the SID employs FM synthesis. I'm not even sure what the collective noun is for these. Wikipedia tells me it's PSG (programmable sound generator).

The same behavior could be (also was) teased out of a MOD player if you choose samples with a handful of sample points, like 12. You could also draw up a sawtooth in paint and use that as a sample. These are down-to-earth honest true Scotsman chiptunes.


I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as a database, is in fact a database management system, or as I've recently taken to calling it, database plus management system.

I am fairly certain it's a case of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_umlaut

I agree, this looks like ~4 products expanded for comedic purposes: GitHub, Windows, Office (M365) and Azure has a thing that can be used for many things.

Edit: SIP has a series of control bits for a diverse set of protections. You can see what these control (and which bits "csrutil disable" toggles) in this include file: https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/xnu/blob/f6217f89...


The link or the footnote itself doesn’t render for you? It renders on mobile Safari, just by scrolling to the bottom of the page.

The footnotes appear to the left of the main body of text around the position they appear in (viewing in a desktop browser). The article has grown a third note in the meantime and these are all visible now.

I'm often having trouble with figuring out in advance what the end result will be when processing an input array: an array of mapped objects or a series of self-contained JSON objects? Why? Which one is better? What if I would like to filter out some of the elements as part of the operation?
