Re: Audiophoolery. 'Cable Break In' - I never knew that!
There is a certain, um, tension between scientists and engineers.
Scientists get to look down on the somewhat simplified views of science used by engineers. Some scientists derive great satisfaction from this. Some make rather unkind remarks.
Engineers get to watch scientists fighting like cats over access to the latest Smashum Whizzerator which engineers have just developed, or going cap-in-hand for funds for a mark II version to be built. Some engineers derive great satisfaction from this. None comment on it, because that might end the entertainment.
