It somehow works with dedicated USB dongles that are size of a penny. Look at Jabra Evolve 65T. From my perspective as a customer it's an issue with Bluetooth standard, not hardware.
The latency problems are somehow solved when using USB adapters, so why can't we embed those adapters in our devices?
Some unethical life advice, he is being unethical so you can be too (with him).

Strategy 1
Find his weak point, and hit it. Make fun of his weak points, is he short? Don't accept his PR, make him beg you to stop - now he wants something from you.

Strategy 2
Ignorance is a bliss, threat him like he doesn't exist, don't talk to him on calls, don't mention his name/work. Don't listen to him.

Strategy 3
Call him out publicly. Be prepared. Is he claiming your work, ask publicly in how did he do it and how does it actually work. Act very interested, make him show the commit. Waste everyones time, don't care.

I know this is all toxic stuff, and you may not want to engage, but you are being hurt and forced to change work. So it's about time to change the strategy.
Escape analysis is very JVM implementation specific, but inline classes should finally sort it out.
I'm not too fond of the example-driven approach. The student will certainly be able to multiply simple matrices and compute determinants in some simple cases, but will not be able to answer fundamental questions like "what can I put in a matrix?", or "what is a vector field?" (the author gives 10 "rules" with no structure, so it's impossible for the student to memorize them). The author throws around `R` everywhere, but all his examples use `Z`. For a book on linear _algebra_, there is very little algebraic rigor in the book.

The standard textbook for learning linear algebra at the undergraduate level is Hoffman and Kunz, which is far better.

In short, this is a poor textbook.
Note that at least in Finland, it's not codified in law. It just has been the "way of the land" for so long that there hasn't been much need to write it down. Some of the aspects can be derived from different laws but mostly it's an unwritten, commonly understood set of principles.

> The '1st wave' was understandable - crude measures in an emergency, fair enough.

The US is largely still in a rolling first wave; the separate nation-wide peaks are the result of the fact that not everywhere got hit at the same time, so, e.g., New York had hit it's first peak and bent things downward before much of the country had even noticeably been hit at all. There's some places that are in genuine second waves, but much of the country is still experience it's first wave (often in a post-lockdown climb after a lockdown-generated plateau.)

I also live in Japan, and IMO topology (mountain slopes are not ideal to camp, most of the flat areas being owned, you'll get the police called on you),
fauna (bears, poisonous snakes, big wasps/bees, monkeys),
overgrown vegetation(in the really wild areas),
the possibility of natural disasters (floods, mud/land slides, ...) explain why the the risk-wary Japanese people prefer campsites.

Campsites are also great because you can rent all the equipment you'll only need once a year, for the summer camp few days with your family as the Japanese working force does not have a lot of holidays.

Also the equipment can get expensive fast if you want to camp comfortably, and would require storing space the Japanese people do not have at home and thus would need to rent ...

Nevetheless, I think camping is getting popular and more and more people are buying equipment.

>Native Swede here. I felt the same way living in the US (minus the kids). Now having moved back, I realize that the problem was not entirely the US, most of it was my own attitude. I won't claim that every country is equal, but there are often good and bad things about most countries, and I haven't seen a perfect one yet. Being an expat in a country though you will notice every little flaw, or anything that's different from what you're used to. Things that annoyed me disproportionatly included paying rent with paper checks and the look and density of US cities. There were a million things like that, along with more serious issues like politics and healthcare. Meanwhile you are partially (sometimes completely) blind to the problems of your home country.
Try to be cognizant of this and try not to be bitter, it's not worth it.

This is a sideline, but I want to be very clear: I don't hangout with expats (I'd say 90% of my friends are Swedes), and I have no illusions whatsoever about the faults of my original country (the UK), which I would never move back to. As a person who grew up in England with parents from Spain who were Basques, I'm actually very critical of 'patriotic' sentiments, and extremely aware of the personal biases that they involve.

I'm definitely not bitter - but I'd say it's typical of you as a Swede to characterize my hatred of Sweden in that negative way.

The same as downgrading anyone else's debt, reduce a rating that notionally represents your firm’s estimate of the probability the debt will be paid according to it's terms.

> Downgrade compared to what?

“Downgrade” by definition is relative to a previous rating of the same thing.

I always see people recommending external pools like this here on HN. I'm wondering a bit about that as many frameworks/libraries that use Postgres already implement an internal connection pool. Is this recommendation generally assuming that multiple applications will access the server? Or are there other reasons to prefer an external pooler over internal pooling in your application?
So we need a new tool that is basically git and rsync rolled into one.
Might be easier to use something like zfs and use it's features to build a tool that behaves almost like git. Then a (zfs + rsync + [zfs-git hybrid]) monster is born, which may or may not work.

Fyi have a look at zfs. It has some neat traits/behaviours. So my thinking is, someone should write a database that uses gazzilions of files (instead of a file per table), a tiny file for each cell/field in a table. Then use zfs for versioning of data (or git). Zfs can already do software mirroring to drive pools on the machine, so maybe add rsync for remote pools. Optimize it for SSD's and you have a filesystem-database-replicating-versioned -based store.

Maybe just need a nice cli/gui for zfs to make it easier/safer to expose more of it's interesting features.

I don't know what zero trust you are talking about, but the way I see it is, that you don't need to trust anyone, other than maths and algorithm to take decisions.

For example, take end-to-end encryption. If some chat app implements this truly, then I don't need to trust the people working on the app to keep my data safe, instead I can rely on the algorithm.

Or a more concrete example would be bitcoin, where everything happens in such a way that no once can cheat you. It's all based on maths and algorithm.
> For me "rural" almost by definition means poor(er)

Median incomes in counties that are mostly rural skew lower [1] than those in urban counties [2]. But the difference, about 4%, is less than I had thought [3].

Moreover, “median incomes in rural areas of the Northeast and Midwest ($62,291 and $55,704 respectively) were higher than in the regions’ urban areas ($60,655 and $51,266)... Median household income was higher for rural households [versus urban ones] in 32 states. In Rhode Island, for example, median rural household income was $85,278, about 57 percent higher than the median for urban households ($54,324)” [4].

Headset voice has to squeeze over GSM voice channel, that is 9.6kbps.

I had pretty smooth experience with using Pulse with multiple sinks/sources, maybe look into doc. Only problem I had was latency sync while multiple sinks play together.
The headset profile is the bane of my existence.

I have zero interest in using my wireless headphones as a headset, ever. And yet, software will randomly manage to trigger it and kick me off of the A2DP profile.

Microsoft Teams is the worst at this. It completely ignores my system audio preferences (which were painstakingly configured to use the expensive microphone as an input, not the wireless headphones) and tries to use the headphones, which switches the profile to headset and ruins the audio quality for the remainder of the call.

Bluetooth is far from OK for audio.
That's clearly no choice at all. It either is a choice or it is not, and restrictions that severe clearly indicate that no, it would not be a choice. You realise how transparent that is, right?

My first course in linear algebra was extremely formal with very little practical examples or visual intuition. It’s easy not to appreciate just how much intuition can go a long way in helping us understand a concept, even if the intuition is formally “fuzzy”. I used Hefferon’s Linear Algebra to plug the gaps in my intuitive and practical knowledge, and was all the better for it.

People have different reasons and approaches for learning, and in the linear algebra landscape Hefferon is a worthy addition.

I was worrying myself sick at least 20 years ago, trying and failing to get anyone to listen. No-one cared. Now it's too late.

The time to worry is when the problem can be dealt with, not when it's blatantly out of control and entering a vicious spiral. Tip: stop worrying, there's no point now.
In my previous job I managed to make our dev teams use Release Flow instead of GitFlow. That was one of the small wins I got while working there. We used GitFlow (because someone just decided we should be using GitFlow as it was the most popular or something) and it was a nightmare to manage. Our release process was very cumbersome in the first place, but the fact of the matter is that GitFlow was overly complicated especially when under pressure to get out a release. A couple of releases we had regressions because of incorrect merges to master (from current dev) and then I started looking into Release Flow. Release Flow is essentially regression proof. The team picked up on it quickly and things were a lot better after that. We still used the feature/bugfix designations, but in practice it was the trunk based development offered by Release Flow.

EDIT: As an extra point I think GitFlow can work if used in a very small team (5-6 devs). Anything above that and it becomes problematic.
> I know, at least according to popular media that puts me in the minority.

Emphasis on "popular"; as with politics, there's a loud minority that skews the perception of, in this case, the prevalence of casual hookups. But think about it, few people on social media will mention NOT having hookups, so it's a case of survivorship bias (I think).

My point is, the amount of people that have frequent hookups is relatively small, but media (social and others) make it look like it's common, normal, or even expected. But it isn't, in practice.

I agree that rural can mean poorer, and that the average demographic might meet those conditions.

Two things though.

Thing #1.

Definitions of 'poor' vary by countries, and my understanding of 'poor' in the US is:

* no safety net

* low, or no minimum wage often

* no/low quality health care

Meanwhile, in Canada (for example) with minimum wage, paid for health care, and a strong safety net, poor is a different thing.

I don't want to get into a big health care debate, but essentially taxes pay for health care here, and the less you make, the less tax you pay. And when you live in a rural area, you need significantly less pay to live to the same standard as a city dweller. Everything is more expensive in the city.

This means that a rural person pays less income tax, for the same standard of living. And therefore, essentially, less for health care.

When combined with housing costs which are immensely lower, the ability to reduce other costs (heating with wood, growing your own food, the ability and room to repair your own car, on and on...), there is more room for extras than one might expect.

An example; waiters/waitresses are paid, by law, minimum wage. And in rural areas, this is much more advantageous than in the city.

I guess what my point #1 is saying, is that rural poor are often better off than urban poor. And do have some discretionary spending, at least in some countries out there.

Point #2....

Definitions of rural.

There is a zone around smaller cities which is not 'suburbia', but is indeed rural. And these areas are often well within easy reach of cities. For example, the city I live close to has a tech businesses concentrated on its western side.

This means that when buying a rural home, one need to be concerned with reaching the entire city quickly. Only the western side. In as such, drive time from rural -> city, as the region is ~ 1.5M, is not that bad. Less than 30 minutes even.

In this rural zone, housing is far enough apart that on side/non-main roads, there is no high-speed internet access.

To speak to that, I live on the very last side-road, before high-speed internet access becomes non-existent. This is no mistake, when I looked to buy, I found the zone where high-speed ended, then searched in that area for housing.

To give you an idea? My house is worth ~ $200k. 10 minutes away? The same house? ~$400k, and I have a 1 acre lot, versus a 1/4 acre city lot.

Anyhow, the above is a bit of rambling, but the point is ; there is 'very close to the city rural, with no high speed' and 'farther out rural'.

Close-to rural enjoys city pay scales for higher end jobs, even without remote work.

And if starlink comes? People might move further out.
No offense, but this is one of the worst comments I've ever read on hackernews. You have not a single piece of evidence for any of your claims, and they fly directly in the face of all reasoning about how a disease like this is most likely to work once it becomes long-term endemic.
People don't enter this world with random ideas. The fact is: Someone has to change their mind and think something new. Either the old or the young.

I find the notion that old people are all stupid, racist bastards very insulting, even though I am under 30. Older people tend to be happier, kinder and have more perspective. Imagine how much more wisdom, knowledge and skill people could accumulate if they did not die so young. If they lived, what would Arthur C. Clarke, John von Neumann and Ludwig van Beethoven be up to today?

It is true young people in our world are often more radical. For better and worse. And for every good change there are other examples where young people changed the world for the worse. The nazis and communists were quite young when they rose to power.

Moreover, I can only reiterate. A fixed world assumption is not valid here. A world with little or no aging will be vastly different.
I don't think you really can, we all live in a society and compromises need to be made for all of us to enjoy a moderate amount of freedom while not impinging on that of others. We don't currently live in a society that comes close to maximizing freedom for everyone (freedom of opportunity is denied to the majority of folks in the US and elsewhere) but I think we're on the right general path to eventually approach a Star Trek future.

I really appreciate parliamentary governments over the hot mess the US has - I think you get a lot better representation especially when no one party has a majority. If everyone is in a minority then you have consensus through coalitions of different fractions and it gets a lot closer to each skinny slice of the nation getting a legitimate say. The more slices you have the better your representation of the public will (up to, ultimately, true popular democracy) but as a society we probably want either majority or strong majority decisions to guide us and that's just conceptually incompatible with no one getting their free-will stomped on.

This hits a really deep point on the topic of freedom - I have the right to not be murdered, but that right comes at the cost of anyone who wants to murder me... restrictions of rights are necessary for greater general societal rights.

Edit: clarifications.
My understanding is that music gets decompressed on the Apple headphones, the original AAC stream is sent over the wire. Most Bluetooth headphones will just effectively transcode the audio, such that for example AAC gets decompressed then recompressed into AptX/LDAC. For music listening, it's completely suboptimal. I use FLAC sources for my Sony headphones which makes them very listenable (along with copious EQ to tame the +5db excess bass). Bluetooth headphones have a lot of room for improvement.

Forests in Europe are not exactly unique to Scandinavia.

Thing is much of the peninsula due to the climate can support only marginal agriculture and hence only a very limited peasant population. Not enough pop density to establish any sustainable lifestyle for nobility.
You say that but we've had a 3-4 month drought two years ago.
Well I hope that Spotify on Android does send original AAC to devices which support it too, but more general point is that you need support on both sides. Something has to decode that AAC on the receiving end, otherwise you'll get standard codecs which are crap (or rather their implementations).

People discuss it without those terms and come to different conclusions, e.g. most like when you use a mic you switch codecs, 99% sure.
