Sort of. The company released a new model and deprecated its older ones. It’s still possible to control the amps with the (really neat) physical remote.

Ditto (except not being an AI detractor): I used Claude and Codex to reverse engineer the proprietary protocol for controlling Devialet amplifiers and then build an iOS controller app to replace the manufacturer's abandoned official ap

I am an audiophile, and for me the AirPods Pro replaced literally thousands of dollars of portable headphones, amplifiers, etc., which I don't miss a bit. Apple's audio engineering is truly top-notch, and all the convenience featu

What a tendentious headline. Of course an employer has the right to hold an information session for its employees and convey its views. The Supreme Court held in 1941 that nothing in the National Labor Relations Act prohibits an employer &q

I don't think your second point is correct. Congress could most certainly empower EPA to administer a cap-and-trade scheme or even some kind of phase-out, as it did with (respectively) acid-rain precursors and CFCs. Congress could do t

Ah, forgotten records, including the musings of poet Allen Ginsburg, provide a secret decoder ring to interpreting the Clean Air Act. This is not, of course, how one interprets statutes. For what it's worth, the linked press release&#x
