Run to your hardest problem. Don't let the old man in


The weirdest thing about the “europoor no AC” discourse is that there is AC everywhere in Southern and Eastern Europe so this is obviously not a financial issue. It is an ideological issue in Northwestern Europe, which is admittedly even funnier.

TIL that Škoda made a bicycle bell that can cut through ANC headphones. Most ANC systems use adaptive filtering (like LMS) at a very basic level, it models the incoming noise and generate an anti-phase signal to cancel it. Works best for steady and predictable sounds. Škoda's research found that around 750 - 780Hz ANC struggles a lot so they made their bell to target this particular frequency they added irregular, transient dual tones that are hard to model in real time this comes from a dual-resonator design : one tuned to ~750-780 Hz (ANC weak spot) using a cantilever tine, and another at higher frequencies (~2 KHz+) like a normal bell, so it’s not a single clean tone So instead of being louder, it’s just… harder to cancel. Pretty neat example of exploiting system limitations with pure analog design. skoda-storyboard.com/en/skoda-world… #s_aid=lcjn3ale-l4dw-fwm4-7wyj-melns76mrjal_004_1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">cdn.skoda-storyboard.com/2026/04/Skoda-…
