Pretty much anyone with AirPods or wireless headphones couldn’t care less about the jack missing. It’s really not a big deal, anyone with wired headphones I know, just keeps the free dongke attaches to the headphones as if it was part of the cable.
Can confirm. Using my SPL Crimson audio interface with a cheap USB hub leads to clearly noticeable noise and distortion (particularly when silent). Connecting the interface directly to the Mac Mini removes the issue.
I mean, I totally agree. The iphone 5c on day one in my hand in 2014 was better than it was in 2018.

And that's not because of the battery, that's just because of the software updates. Like, the CPU didn't lose any MHz along the way.

My English is poor so sometimes I write convoluted sentences since I do not know how to construct them, sorry, I mean did you know ANY sustainable reasonably big city? I do not know any.

Cities might seems to be more productive since our developed countries switch from production to tertiary sector but that's thanks to the rest of productive world that's now in easter Europe, Asia, Africa, South America etc. So in general cities are not more economically productive, it only offer more options per land area since there is more concentration but with the exception of tertiary sector you simply can't have industry, agriculture, breeding, ... in cities and well... We all need to eat, we all use industry-made product from bottom up.

The problem of "countryside" is the concentration of alternatives per land area, you may have nearby a sole productive and attractive activity, if something happen to it you might have to go far away to found another option. In cities being concentrated you normally have more options nearby. However this is most a matter of economic organization that's still do not understand to much how to use territory than a mere thing from being in the countryside itself. Perhaps the most sustainable model we actually have in place is the Riviera one's with enough space to evolve and enough concentration of opportunities.

Google HQ is a tertiary sector activity and require hi-speed connections so a city is a nice place for it, however did you know where most data centers are? Did you know where we produce electricity for them? Concrete, Steel, Plastic, ... that is needed for them? That's a big point that many today forget but in case of real crisis that's represent a real and dangerous problem because if producer are not anymore in your country and are not anymore willing to work/commerce with you, you are TFU.

That's a thing USA and even more UK should have learned from China, we western Europeans should have learned from Easter EU...

> If being fit promotes long life, you might expect being an elite athlete to help you reach a ripe old age. It doesn’t. Olympians buy themselves an extra 2.8 years on average, according to a 2012 study.

I don't think is a good comparison point to make for general fitness. Olympic athletes push their bodies to the extreme, putting insane stress on their whole system. I wouldn't be surprised to find that that level of churn on the body actually reduces life expectancy from a certain point forward. What ever benefits they gain from steady medical attention, good diet etc would be offset by the insane strain.

Isn't there a solar telescope around sun-earth L1?
One was mid-50s, and nearing an early retirement. He'd worked in a dozen or more languages, was working mostly in Python and C (for performance-critical Python extensions) when I worked with him. He'd been significantly involved in the development of the IBM Oberon compiler and environment in the past, as well as done something with OS/2, though I don't know the specifics. Very broad experience, though, including a lot of low-level stuff. He was treated uniquely in the company at the time. He was the only person with an office by himself, he skipped most meetings, and was generally a bit quiet and introverted. He liked to come in, do his work, and go home. He didn't stay late, didn't work weekends, didn't do crunch-time even if everyone else was (because his part of the project was already done, on schedule), didn't go out for drinks after work, usually, though he would go out for lunch with everyone. He was a super nice guy, and generous with his knowledge, he just wasn't into being very social. He wanted to go home, be with his family, and work on his hobbies (some involved code, others were gaming and video production and 3D modeling...so lots of tech hobbies).

The other I met when he was in his mid-20s, he's in his mid-40s now, and I still work with him. He was extremely talented and productive then, and remains so today. He maintains roughly a million lines of code that he mostly wrote by himself (mostly while working an unrelated full-time job). It's a world unto itself (for better or worse, it looks nothing like any other project you'd find in the same language, and his coding style hasn't changed notably in at least a decade), but he delivers new features in an absurdly short time. He's a completely different sort of developer than the previous one I mentioned; the first was always eager to try new things. The latter has built up a system that works for him, and rarely changes...he just keeps churning out code every year at an alarming rate, because he knows the system inside and out. Bugs evaporate in seconds sometimes, once identified and reproduced.

In the former case, I was impressed with the breadth of his knowledge and his ability to drop in on a project and figure it out extraordinarily quickly, and his ability to zero in on what needed to be solved today and what would fall out naturally and easily once the core problems were solved. While in the latter case, I've always been impressed by how quickly he can deliver pretty much anything the project needs. He's written everything from the ground up (including things most people would pull in via libraries)...so, no element of the codebase is a mystery to him. He's looked at the same codebase nearly every day for two decades and he can sit down and be productive immediately.
Hold on, are we talking about monorepos, ie a set of projects with shared change history (and possibly 'build it all' type tooling) or single monolithic apps?

Something is definitely wrong with that phone, or maybe that Google model. I'm definitely not seeing slow behavior like that on my Samsung S8 that I've owned for over a year. It's been getting regular security updates too (just got the December update a couple of weeks ago). I have seen similar slowdowns on my older Nexus 5 & iPhone when the internal storage got too full.

I'm a long time Apple user (over a decade, one of those people who queued up for a day one iPhone), but I am ecstatically happy with my Samsung S8 and find it to be the most "Apple-like" device I've bought from a non-Apple company. That said, if you prefer the iPhone, that's okay too. People like different things and use different features.
CryptoNote

It is the predecessor to Monero, development there stalled in politics, and some people forked Monero.

Admittedly, it wasn't very big when the split happened. I'm not sure of the capitalization.
The first time I ever seen this portal gimmick in a game was in the Wheel of Time game (released in 99), although it was used only once in the whole game my mind was blown.
I would also add that "socialism" means completely different things to different people. To some, a mild social democracy is socialism, while to others it's a full blown proletariat dictatorship.

Conversely, to some a mild social democracy is socialism. Case in point: the US's debate on establishing an european style national health service.

Therefore, not only are these polls heavily biased, they are meaningless as they aren't based on objective definitions of those concepts.

Look for relevant Meetups / user-groups in and around your area. Contact the organizers and see if you can give a quick schpiel at their meeting. Often times groups have a policy like "whoever sponsors pizza for the meeting gets 10 minutes to pitch their company" or something along those lines. Or maybe they just ask for a donation. Or maybe they let you do it for free if you ask nice. Who knows? Just get in touch and give it a try.
Try to compute differently: how much usable energy you milk from gasoline/diesel? How many fill-up you do per week on your car? Now compute it at national scale and imaging it in electrical energy instead of chemical.

That's the "most real" consumption you can compute... Another easier and raw/spannometric computation can be counting a 70/80% recharge per day per car.

Results are far bigger than yours :-)

And I forgot to mention that Australia is one of the few developed country with a very little mean density and population so you have many possible energy sources and few people who consume them...

That's pretty much what I did with Gergo[1], I got tired of the ergonomics of other boards and designed/built my own split board. It's smaller to reduce finger travel/extension, the layout is optimized for programming/vim and even tacked on a trackball. After too many terrible keyboards I made Gergo, and it is extremely comfortable to use for hours at a time!

There's some photos on my blog with the development PCBs (just got the production ready ones in and am shipping them out). Cases are in the works :)

I'm actually planning on adding additional modules (there's I2C contacts on every switch). And the trackpoint is next on my list.

a) It is perfectly possible to include a battery, that, even degraded over some time, can provide enough peak power.
b) They could have sold their approach as a feature. Or they could have included a warning: Slowed down, replace battery. Similar to what they do now. But no, they kept it secret. Ask yourself why.

Also, if you have that functionality, why crash and then display a message. Write: Crash prevented, but clocked down.

Location: Aalesund, Norway

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Might be

Technologies: TypeScript, React, GraphQL, SQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Node, PHP, Symfony, REST, Git, Docker, Linux.

Résumé/CV: Upon request

Email: post at tonyandre dot co

Hey, my name is Tony and I've been working professionally as a software developer for 2 years now. At the company I work for now I started as a developer but quickly got the title as Lead Developer/Project Manager and have been developing APIs, creating and updating our CMS system written in PHP, migrating our system from PHP 5.x to 7.2 and I've been doing a lot of server management. I've been containerizing all our projects and set everything up in docker swarm.

I am mainly looking for a remote position but willing to relocate if the offer is right. My dream role would be working with new technologies; I love to evolve and I learn quickly. I'd classify my self as a GraphQL enthusiast so APIs is something that I like working with. What I'm looking for is a role where I can continue to grow as a developer/engineer and to work on something interesting and fulfilling. I'd love to hear from you if you think I'd fit in your team!

Allegro Newest Galvanically Isolated Current Sensor IC-ACS773
The ACS773 is an automotive grade, 200KHz Bandwidth Current Sensor IC in Allegro’s proprietary CB package. It offers a wide current sensing range (50A to 400A) and very low power loss achieved by the 100 μΩ internal resistance of its conductive path. The ACS773 achieve the highest performance in the CB package family with an accuracy of +/-2.1% over the lifetime of the IC from room to hot temperature. The 2.5 μs response time enables overcurrent fault detection in safety-critical applications while the Reinforced Galvanic Isolation reduces the bill of materials. It works off of a single 5 V supply (ACS772) or 3.3V (ACS773).

Yo, so what exactly is wrong with these guys? They are born in America and have so much support and they suck.

yes it mentions the battery replacements and emerging markets as well.

I think he forgets to mention lack of innovation. It was the first year that I wasn't surprised from the new iPhone at all and none of my friends did. At this point I don't see much difference in having an X model vs XS.

You'll tell me that they had S models in the past and worked fine for them, sure... its not the same market anymore. There are very strong competitors using android which has also evolved and its doing really well as an OS vs what it was in the past at way cheaper prices.

At the price tag those iPhones are coming at plus the lack of innovation, I only see a constant drop in sales.

Personally I upgraded from an iPhone 7 to XS Max, my wife has an iPhone X and I don't see any difference between them, only the size. That plus the fact that I got my hands on some new android phones and got to use them made me think that I might change to android when my next upgrade is due. The apple ecosystem seems to be okish but I can't really say that it will keep me from changing.
And truth be told there are quite a few solutions out there for them to become innovative again like the new ipad pro... have it use OS instead of iOS, that will definitely make people switch over to that and what comes with its ecosystem e.g pairing your mobile phone etc. Also airpods 2, just make some airpods with water resistance etc maybe improve connectivity a bit. Its not like we are requesting crazy innovation here, just simple solutions that will make us stick with the apple ecosystem.

Disclaimer: I was an avid windows user and android phone user up till iphone 5s came out, I switched to 5s and the difference on iOS quality vs Android was massive. Due to work I also started working with a mac and so I joined the ecosystem and I can't say am very displeased apart from the price tag, but seeing how Android has progressed over the years and how stock Android can be even superior to iOS has made me thinking of changing back.
