For those in the Safari browser - the video is .webm so you will need Firefox/Chrome to view.

Does Safari seriously not support webm? That's wild

The course linked from it has an amazing online textbook.

Great resource. Thanks for sharing.

To my non-English ears it sounds like he pronounces "GNU" in "GNU Radio" like "guinea". Is there a specific reason why it is pronounced differently than Stallman's GNU?

I believe "guinea" is pronounced "gin-ee" (with a hard g) and GNU is pronounced "guh-noo" (again, hard g).

I think he's pronouncing it right in the video, but he's not enunciating super well, so it gets a bit muddy.

Edit: When you have a schwa, some people will use more of a "u" sound ("guhnoo") while others might use a different sound (this guy's closer to "gihnoo") - it really depends on accent/upbringing and how you speak I think. It actually took me a few listens before I could parse it out.

Do you have a particular timestamp where you're hearing that? To me it sounds like he's pronouncing it the same way that Stallman does.
