Think of your speakers as a car engine, and the volume control as the gas pedal where 100% is the maximum power you can give the engine. Now, when you turn up VLC's volume to 200%, it’s like adding a supercharger to the engine, forcing it to pump out more power. But here's the catch: VLC doesn’t just blast everything louder. It selectively boosts the quieter parts of the sound while preventing the already loud parts from getting out of control just like tuning the engine to avoid burning out. However, if you push it too far, you risk speaker distortion, like an engine overheating because it’s being pushed too hard.

Over 32 months ago, I had an idea called Surf, a program aimed at helping techies with internet data subscription every weekend. Several months after, I realized the idea was a solid and that many people - techies or not - need internet time for survival and that birthed @opensauceryf So far, we've issued out over 15,000 GB of data to over 1,500 people and will continue to support humans with many more programs to come. We're currently experimenting with a new program called Geneinus and hope to make it available to the public soon enough.

You should try out Barf in your next Go project. Although I authored it, I think it's a cool framework nonetheless.

barf but with bun by @oven_sh @trulyao got any experience with bun?

It's a good day to write some tech debt 🦄

Dear frontend newbie "I've learnt HTML, CSS and some JavaScript...can I start React?" If this is you...please, don't start anything 🙏 The thing is...software engineering is a crowded town hall and you just have to be different from the bala blu to scale high. 1/x

New feature in Goaxios allows you to download files either to a path or a io.Writer. This makes it easy to use goaxios to automatically download a file and store it in, say, a cloud storage without needing to first save it locally as we can see in the code below. #golang

I just got informed that BARF made it into @golangweekly Thank you to everyone who supported in making this possible🦄

Hi all, I just published BARF on Product Hunt 🎉...do help upvote to support the movement. All participation is duly appreciated 🙏 producthunt.com/posts/barf-b…

I just published a new package called Barf. It's a small and unobtrusive framework for building JSON-based web APIs on REST or GraphQL-based architectures. Below is a sample image of how you can get started with Barf. github.com/opensaucerer/barf
