I find the more I learn of the early IBM transition to electronics, the more I see direct parallels to the modern startup world. It was seemingly a startup within a massive company with a monetary "umbrella" to help foster innovation, although likely not the first. Another motivator for the lab's success was how they had to demonstrate value with electronics well beyond a normal burden of proof (overcoming the Innovator's Dilemma). There's still a lot more to learn from their stories.

r/homelab has been a source of great inspiration since 2012.
Designed and open-sourced a custom CNC Aluminum Unibody case for an existing open-source split-fixed mechanical keyboard PCB called the Arisu, similar to the TGR Alice.
Prototypes arrived in record time and definitely enjoying them as I type this.
The PCB can be quickly built by several prototyping companies and available at: https://github.com/FateNozomi/arisu-pcb

It's been fun building custom iOS apps for HA tasks.
This also brings back fond memories working for a larger resort and my team building an integrated lift status system. Simple API on top of a relational database, easy to use web application for lift operations to update lift status in realtime, integrated PDF generation to print reports for numerous front-desks (think all the main lodges, hotels, and businesses in town to receive and print). The big win was a large number of large plasma screens running out lift status flash application in various lodges with long runs of HDMI to proxy servers all getting pub/sub realtime status updates. The Flash application had continuous polling via AMF to our proxy servers with a cache layer, etc. and it was pretty well received by guests. We also had the same API support all mobile apps at the time. The big customer-loving feature was getting alerts when a lift was about to open on a bluebird powder day and get that to them in near realtime often before many of the "lifties" knew.
Spotify has been streaming 1411kbps for most tracks through their browser player in Chrome and only then I notice little difference between Spotify and Tidal HiFi. The Masters tracks still are noticeably better than the Spotify on Chrome app playing at 1411kbps.
There is an upside to streaming from the Spotify Chrome app for 1411kbps which doesn't incur extra cost but this is all functionality Spotify is not advertising. The downsides are this only currently works in the US (IIRC) and navigation in the Chrome Browser app is very limited compared to the desktop app.
I'm very surprised you were not able to notice a difference with such a great stack as the HD800s + Mojo and suspect it was something else in the chain limiting the potential. I suggest giving even just Spotify direct in the Chrome webapp a try again if not Tidal and ensure you have the chain configured properly.
