The term dark personalities refer to a set of socially aversive traits (such as spitefulness, greed, sadism, narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism) in the subclinical range. And thus, according yo this article, those with dark personality traits are slightly more likely to emerge as leaders and are seen as charismatic but, when it comes to getting the job done, they tend to achieve less and are considered poor team players.
call quality still sucks because of HFP. That hasn’t changed for over a decade.
This is just demonstrably not true. Bluetooth Hands-Free mangles the sample rate to 16 / 24 kHz. See this video for a collection of pretty much all common devices from "this decade". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifmGS_WWk7o
I think that's some iOS peculiarity, or non-standard latency compensation implementation. On Android all bluetooth headphones I've tried seem to work fine for non realtime applications, and many (like Sony's great wf-1000xm3) have none or barely perceptible latency in games.
At least it’s better than calling them “the poors” which is usually what people say in relation to Apple products.

Does anyone have any insight as to why this is offered at the market? Avoiding fees? Fiduciary Responsibilities?

This is the second at the market offering for Tesla, and I know Elon understands the stock market better than most, so there must be a long term reason.
Reading this I imagined that if you start listening somewhere and move, it simulates distancing from the imaginary sound source (which of course doesn't make any sense). So if you go out of the room with your headphones on, you won't hear the music anymore haha
Free version is quite limited in functionality. You can play with language models but cannot run MD simulations or AI assisted mutagenesis.
I get what he's saying though. The target demographic for $80 white tee shirts and $600 tennis shoes isn't people who can afford them
Not him, but I seriously want to know how rich Elon Musk's family is. He never worked a day at a conventional job in his life - this is a huge luxury.
Just a heads up, Bose often give you a discount, or did when I last worked for them about a decade ago, if you trade in your old headphones for new ones.

If it's just the ear pads, those can be replaced for like $20.
It looks like they come with a USB-C to Lightning cable, so one can assume that the headphones have a Lightning port on 'em for charging.

Initially I wanted to derive the value from the FPS column and from the comments but like you already wrote this does not work well as it is highly dependant on the genre of even the specific game.

Thanks a lot for your thoughts on this. It is one of the most important aspects to improve apart of getting more reports. Appreciate it!

Interesting choice of 40mm driver instead of 50mm.

That can make a mass-ive difference in sense of realism for lows. Perhaps they think the Adaptive EQ makes up for it.

I’ve been disappointed in headphones that aren’t 50mm for electronica, jazz, pop, movies, and gaming, fine with 40mm for classical, choral, and television.

Eh... airpods look weird, but they're also fairly discrete. You notice the little stems, but they're easy to ignore. This is a pretty big honking device.

I'm not sure I buy airpods are a status symbol either in most people's eyes either. I like airpods, but does anyone really make a judgement based on choice of earbud? I doubt it.

As we have been doing for over 200 years with very very few dangerous side effects
Here's how it goes where I work:

- Someone needs something

- They ask for it

- The company buys it.

I haven't asked for one laptop per year because I don't think a few CPU clocks will improve my productivity that much. However, couches, nice chairs, books, headsets, screens, good lighting, flexibility with respect to life, bonuses, careful hiring not to mess the team, a view on a mediterranean port in a country that's pretty much sunny most of the year, transparency, inclusion in everything, alignment, and working on interesting problems improves retention and productivity.

We buy good laptops according to the tastes of our people. One engineer could not use a laptop that didn't have a nipple/joystick/pointing stick (Thinkpad). Although it was strange, that's what the engineer got.

However, there are things where we notice latent demand and we don't wait for someone to ask. For example, we had one couch. We found that everyone wanted to use the couch and there would be a game of dibs, so we bought more couches.

Bear in mind that we had a period of struggle and we went cockroach mode. Everyone knew it and everyone knew we couldn't afford stuff, but there was acceptance because the information was out there. The rationale behind not buying something was communicated: the money is tight. We'd buy that if he had more, and we did buy when we had more.

Philip Glass is my hero and inspired me to learn playing piano.

Personal anecdote: I've managed to get invited to a small Einstein on the Beach play at The Greene Space NYC - I've been flying to NYC for business and this alone made my whole trip so much nicer. I remember him sitting 2 chairs away from me and the play was beautiful.

If you're curious, I strongly suggest watching

LR41/LR44 are non-rechargable, with rechargable versions having considerably lower capacities. They are also 3.9/5.4 mm tall. So these are potentially much better.

Possible "reduced viral load" by those who are vaccinated simply doesn't mean that that load is below the threshold which makes somebody not infectious. In practice, it could, for example, mean that if such persons spend two hours in the room with you they can still transmit the virus to you, whereas the non vaccinated person with the virus would transmit to you in 15 minutes. So you can't just claim that a person is 100% safe because the load is just "reduced."

Additionally, for the immune system to respond, the infection has to happen first -- the virus has to spread through the cells of your body. We already know that the people are indeed infectious before their immune system response makes the symptoms. The delay in response has to exist even among the vaccinated people.

So what is sought after is a proof of sterilizing immunity, and there's no such still. I've read that the UK plans to evaluate the evidence for that in the following months by tracking the people who get the vaccine, which sounds good.
$549!?

That puts it in the same price category as: Sennheiser HD660S, Audeze LCD-1, Beyerdynamic DT1770/1990, Grado RS2e, among many many others.

Honestly, I don't understand why you would buy these when there are a lot of established professional audio companies offering better sound at a cheaper price. At least airpods have a unique selling point in their portability and ux but I don't see how this benefits over-ear cans.
Yes and one of the old fashioned way to increase your network is– cold calling.

You’ve probably heard the saying that if you don’t ask you don’t get, and this is very true. If you are out of options, regarding building a relationship or just meeting the right person in the right organization, then you can try the phone, email usually does not work.
This might be the first music product from Apple that I would be skipping. Spatial audio needs to come to Apple TV and the MacBooks before these become worthy of price. And major services need to implement it.

Netflix on Mac with Spatial audio with nothing inside my ear would be worth $549 to me.
Because the traffic that passes through our network isn't ours. It's our customers' traffic. If we start to track their customers they are going to be pissed and go somewhere else. It's not in our interest to track people, it's not how we make money and it's not our mission.

I don't think what the person in the article is doing is cybersquatting.

If I bought, say, Microsoft.ai and the tried to extort Microsoft to buy it, that's cybersquatting.

If looked at the list of available domains, saw one called "cooldomain.ai" and bought it, and then after that someone starts a company called CoolDomain and wants to buy the domain, then that is fair enough.
> and then once the competition is dead, prices rise to way higher than they ever were before

Though it hurts the current businesses, the high prices won't last long. New competitors will see the chance in same services with lower prices and they'll go in. The problem is actually regulation and lobbying, which making new players harder to emerge.
Thanks for your comment, I think right now having the game table list all the reports might be a bit confusing.

As next step I want to group the reports by game and provide a detail view for each game. An added benefit for this is that every game gets a dedicated URL but also allows for a more powerful ui (e.g. sort/filter by distribution platform or Mac specs you are interested in and so on) while staying in the context of the specific game.

Thanks for your comment. Appreciate it.

Generally found that setting that env var with anything mildly complicated (in go!) in terms of AWS roles helps.

Other libraries/clis/etc (in other languages) tend to transparently traverse the credentials chain for you.
To hijack your comment: all of these type of bunkers mentioned in the article are decommissioned as they don't match the modern military doctrine. The majority of these bunkers are artillery and anti-tank bunkers built during the cold war (some during WWII) to play a decisive role in large tank battles.

The article confuses this, as there were some plans in actually deconstructing them which however turned out to be too expensive. So virtually all of these bunkers were indeed decommissioned and most also declassified in the last 10 years (some turned into a museum e.g. a WWII bunker https://www.crestawald.ch/). Others, such as the Castello mentioned by /u/nix23 are used as temporary barracks for troops, but don't have an actual defensive function any more.
Uber isnt a software company?
Yeah, they use their own proprietary protocol over Bluetooth Low Energy (which you can basically use as a raw packet transport).

For some reason the Bluetooth consortium was years behind the ball in standardizing a high quality bidirectional audio transport, versus the phone-quality "Hands Free Profile" and "Headset" Profile using 90s era codecs (uni-directional is fine since it uses a higher quality "Advanced Audio Distribution" profile).

The consortium launched Bluetooth Low Energy audio last year (or maybe this year?), but I'm not sure if it's actually shipping in anything yet.

> bullet-proof pairing, keeping a connection, audio quality

That'll be because Apple products use a custom protocol to iPhones, whereas all other brands have to use basic bluetooth, which has crappy sound quality, arbitrary restrictions, poor handling of weak signals, lots of delay, and is hard to pair.

Apples walled garden doesn't allow third parties to design or use their own protocols, or use apples protocols, so it's far from a level playing field.

I like the idea. There are too many data middlemen that proved they cannot be trusted, especially ISPs. Since there was not alternative, they had free reign and did sell consumer data. Time to pull it from their hands for good. The idea looks solid, but Apple and Cloudflare should be scrutinized still.

It is good that companies need to fear their revenue shrinking because they have neglected and actively fought privacy.

String s = null;

That's not possible with nullable types. The whole point of nullable types is to mark types that can be null. So this is possible:

String? s = null;

But now it's not much different than this:

Option<String> s = None;

My point is that these are fundamentally the same thing. The only difference is syntax, ergonomics, and compiler support.
I disagree that the semicolon is noise Thought the Javascript interpretter (usually) does not need it the semicolon is good for humans who read the code after you Sure it is possible to read the code without the semicolons with some practice but the semicolons are standard in many other related languages among them Java C++ PHP and MySQL Now you personally might not use those other languages very often but many of us especially those who occasionally wear a devops hat do And if the code is not meant to be read by humans also then why are we not writing in assembly

Well, sadly I can't think of anything that could help... but I will say that some update made my Win10 installation hibernate randomly (event log says due to "CPU overheating" - there is no overheating).

I thought it stopped when I converted 2 disks from dynamic (mirror mode) to basic (2 independent drives), but it still happens, albeit way less frequently. Create a mirrored volume and it's 2-3 times a day.

I sure as hell am not blaming my hardware, Win10 used to work fine, Linux works fine, Windows 7 works fine.
I know nothing about headphones, nor do I want to invest any time learning about headphones.

I’ve had a bunch of Apple products that have never disappointed me in the last 10+ years.

I’ll buy these overpriced headphones because an extra $200 for a product I’ll probably use for 5 years will not break my bank account.
But comments above state that the vaccine doesn't effect spread. If that's true, then vaccinating everyone would not address any of those points.

Yes. The area is fairly broad. In my opinion - I think the question to ask for is: Do you have the distributed systems mindset? Not Are you an expert on Distributed Systems
I'm wondering how they still get good performance with a proxy server in between, the plots seem quite close to each other (maybe because logarithmic?).

Also, not sure how useful the Tor comparison is, since Tor does 3 hops as opposed to their 1 so it would be a shame if it doesn't beat that.
Going forward I think I will be able to provide personalized/contextualized views. Imagine:

this is the list of games I own/care about: (5 games)
this is the list of Macs I own/care about: (2 Macs)

this would allow me to add a personalized view where you can compare performance for the games you care about across the Macs you own + the Macs or games you intend to purchase

edit: This is part of the initial motivation for creating the spreadsheet

people right now are wondering whether their games (and apps) will run at all on the new Macs and if so how that compares to what they see on their current Macs
The only real inconvenience is Bluetooth connecting and disconnecting. It's clunky on my WH-1000XM3's compared to my AirPods Pro, and I often find myself hunting for the device the Sonys were last connected to so I can reconnect to something else. But, unless the AirPods Max (terrible name) turn out to be stunningly good, the added convenience isn't worth the massive price difference to me.
I have a $10 pair of in-ear headphones, I also have Bose QC15, and a ~1000 put into a home theater system.

I love music. The convince (and lack of guilt over breaking numerous $10 pairs) wins out, and I don't notice enough for it to matter.

Done before because they put it in their AirPods?

I believe the spatial audio feature is only for supported video playback (eg. some content from Disney+, Apple TV+). It’s surprisingly immersive actually.
$549 today isn't as much as $549 was 10 years ago or even 5 years ago. The world is getting wealthier. Money is getting cheaper. We've just printed trillions of dollars this year to keep the good times rolling baby. We live in an era where people would rather pay $549 for a set of headphones than save it in a bank account or save for a house, cuz there's no way in hell they'll ever be able to afford a house. So why not blow it on experiences and shiney stuff instead of clinging on to a dream that can never be realised? That's the mentality of a lot of Apple's target market.
Pfizer doesn't have to do anything. The vaccines will be sent all over the world, all destined for reputable hospitals where they're intended to be used for elderly transgender orphans with pre-existing conditions working in COVID ICUs. However, some shipments will mysteriously fall off the truck on the way there, and will resurface at private hospitals for the elite who can and will pay large quantities for them.
Are there any other offerings for wireless spatial audio? That would be the main selling point for me.

549 USD. Wow.

I don't judge Apple. They are free to price what they want and people can buy what they want, but the pricing for this product seems expensive.

For 149 USD more, you can get the latest 256 GB, M1 based Mac Mini.

For 50 USD More, you can get a new iPad Air.

For 149 USD More, you can get an iPhone 12

These headphones are really expensive.

In my day it would have been heavy metal and dungeons and dragons. If that seems glib about a terrorist outrage that cost dozens of lives and families, we should apply the same standard of gravity to the quality of the critical excuses authorities make for it afterward. There is a youtube rabbit hole, but it has nothing on the previous tumblr hall of mirrors, or the twitter chorus. Tech is a great scapegoat because it's not going to defend itself. I suppose part of moving on is finding a way to co-opt negative experiences and apply them to strengthen your agenda, but from politicians, it still seems like cynical cant.

Practically, not choosing China at this moment is impractical, to say the least. But I would applaud sites doing teardowns if they started cataloging the provenance of the major components used in each product. This would be a first step to allow consumers make more informed purchases in the future.
I'm a sucker. I just bought them. I love being able to switch between my iPhone and my Mac on my AirPods.

I have the Sony MX3's, and they are great. I don't like toggling between devices and having it automatically connect to my last used device, have to disconnect it from one, blah, blah.

This is what Apple does. They raise prices. People are stunned initially. Others follow, then those prices are the norm. iPhone was considered overpriced when it was released. I think people have always thought the same about Macs, iPad, Apple Watch, etc.
