  • Sound is air vibration

    Sound is not exclusive to air, it can be generalized to vibrations in any media. Whale song and dolphin echolocation are certainly sounds, and we’re almost always talking about them propagating in water rather than air.

    which has to travel from one place to the next

    No, that isn’t how sound works. In air this would be a description of wind, not sound.

    just transfer kinetic energy to the adjacenct atom

    This is actually a good description of how sound waves propagate.










  • Generate the binaries during test execution from known (version controlled) inputs, plaintext files and things. Don’t check binaries into source control, especially not intentionally corrupt ones that other maintainers and observers don’t know what they may contain.
