In fact some real coding ability (simple things) should be required as entry for any kind of higher education, just like reading and writing and basic math are.
FTFY.
I'd disagree on that though - those three things are pretty much a requirement for getting around in the world, but programming isn't. Yet.
Non-coders should write code. It's how they'll learn. Now, if you meant "Why non-coders shouldn't write code for serious business purposes," well, guess what else? Non-surgeons shouldn't perform surgery. Non-swimmers shouldn't go diving. Non-drivers shouldn't be on the roads.
The result was undecided:
The listeners in the test were either unable to hear a difference, or when they thought they heard one, it appeared to be random which one was perceived as better.
That sounds more like a negative result than an undecided one.
One of the side effects is that digital media like CDs clip when the sound peaks.
I'd think it would be incredibly rare to find a truly clipping audio CD (i.e. sustained 32,767/-32,768 sample values). Unfortunately - as I've found out - encoding an MP3 from a non-clipping CD and playing it back can result in clipping, although I'm not exactly sure of the cause. Thankfully, mp3gain can losslessly adjust the playback volume of an MP3.

No I'm not.
Even the quality of the copy-and-pastes is declining around here.
If I have to google a term, don't use it in a post title.

Our Jojanneke showed us yesterday that even blonde women can crack the TLS-chipcard
But they shouldn't worry their pretty little heads about it, because they can get a big strong man to do it for them.
How is the old rascal doing??
He woke up this morning feelin' fine.
Ah, thank you for providing the one simple word I was grasping for when I wrote "for serious business purposes"!
On the Moon, no-one can hear a "whoosh."

see if he can tell the difference between 128kbps mp3 and 24bit 96khz uncompressed.
He might not be able to, but I sure as hell can.

Ironically, I was being ironic.
Oh yeah, and who the hell are Asher and Kittinger? The summary doesn't even try to explain.
Can a Court Order You To Delete a Facebook Account?
the judge told her to delete her Facebook account,
So, yes, then. Also, when you copy-and-paste to create your summary, at least out for things like:

where there has been no previous mention of any accident.
Fact is, it's cheap and available, so it's popular.
So's yo hypothetical momma, but that doesn't mean you have to be happy about the situation.
Then I switched to Open Office.
And?! I need closure on this anecdote!
Oh please.. It's an expression.
Do you know exactly what was said?
The standard that has been used up until now is if a perceived threat is distanced in time or target
Ah... so he should have said he was going to kill kids next year, one town over.
First Evidence of Quantum Tunnelling Slashdot Post Dismissed as Human Error.
You may want to consider paying a little more to get someone with a better grasp of written English to write it.
And it doesn't mention Greg Egan.
In fact, forget the travel. And the blindfold.
It was blintzes to paint a fence. And those blintzes were terrible.
Looks like 8-bit to me (maybe 4-bit). I just enjoyed the contrast of the big number, the mediocre number, and the boringly small one at the end.

Wow!

Wow.
that take up 5.52MB of space.
W- meh.
