I'm sorry, now I really don't understand. If these libraries shipped with your distro, you asked for them. If they were dependencies of a package you installed, you asked for them. It's bizarre to me that there are hundreds of Linux distros with every combination of packages you could possibly ask for and I still see this complaints. It's very likely you didn't see a prompt because your distro configured it to not require a password. If you want to configure it to require a password, the system lets you do that. This is just another choice you have.
Never. I've reviewed for over 30 journals from low to high quality and you don't get a dime. And sometimes get the editor hinting you what they want you to say.

Well, you had to pay more for better headphones with better cables. But wireless headphones are expensive anyway. (And have non-replaceable batteries which will also permanently die after a couple years.)

That's kinda like saying Bob built a go-kart in his garage over a couple months, it moves you from A to B, I don't see why a Toyota Corolla needs a massive factory. Spotify's product isn't just a streaming media player. It's also all the infrastructure to produce the streams, at scale, for millions of users.

How often are you actually launching spotify? I start it once when I boot and that's it until my next reboot, weeks/months later.

Now you might of course ask, "why isn't the velocity 6554x that of winamp, even when correcting for non-eng staff, management, overhead, etc". Well, they probably simply aren't allocating that much to the client development.

Also often times one dev who knows exactly what he is doing can be way more effective than a team; no bikeshedding, communication, PRs, etc. What happens when they get hit by a bus?
> …Airpods have a ton of extra UX settings in iOS that are not available to other bluetooth headsets.

To be fair, AirPods have "a ton" of hardware capabilities built in that are also not technically available, but that's kind of exactly the point, right?
A combination is the best, got some cheap noise cancelling JBL BT phones and if you plug a cable it'll always use that (they even work as dumb headphones when turned off), pull the cable and they'll happily go for BT.

WH-1000xm3 sound much worse when wired. They are made to use internal DAC.
I think it goes to show how much “just works enough “ consumers are happy to tolerate for wireless over other advantages of wired.

I remember early consumer wi- fi was just garbage compared to wired and… we still used it happily.

Granted sometimes we go back… my cars Bluetooth is so maddening I use a cable instead.

This is exactly why I have the old-school style with a wire connecting them that sits on the back of your neck. I had my toddler rip an earbud out just once for me to realize that was a design feature I had to have. As an added bonus, I find they're way easier to throw on and off (just loop them around your neck and tuck them in your shirt) in between tasks.

Free entry - but for those going for the religious service. That's not me. At least that's how it was all around northern Italy few years ago when I visited.
That also further increases the interoperability problem though, if I can't use my headphones with non-Apple devices even after going through the pairing dance. (Unless Apple uses some other open protocol, which I doubt!)

Something from the NYT mailing list yesterday:

> The Covid vaccines are remarkably effective at preventing serious illness. If you’re vaccinated, your chances of getting severely sick are extremely low. Even among people 65 and older, the combination of the vaccines’ effectiveness and the Omicron variant’s relative mildness means that Covid now appears to present less danger than a normal flu.

> For the unvaccinated, however, Covid is worse than any other common virus. It has killed more than 865,000 Americans, the vast majority unvaccinated. In the weeks before vaccines became widely available, Covid was the country’s No. 1 cause of death, above even cancer and heart disease.

At this point if an adult in the US is unvaccinated it is (1) almost certainly by choice (there are some people who cannot get it for medical reasons but they make up only a very tiny fraction of the unvaccinated), and (2) it is very unlikely that any evidence or logical arguments will chance their minds.

With COVID becoming endemic everyone is going to get antibodies, with the only choice being whether you get your first antibodies by vaccination or by getting COVID.

The only question really then is how fast do we want the unvaccinated to do the getting antibodies by getting COVID thing. The faster they get it, the faster we can be as done with COVID as we are ever going to be.

I'd say the answer to that should be determined by the hospital capacity. If a region has sufficient hospital capacity that it would not be overwhelmed by the increase in COVID cases among the unvaccinated go ahead and lift most restrictions.
Well, yes, to my understanding. If you add lang="ts" to the script block, you can write normal TypeScript code for the component logic, and it will also check props that you are passing to child components in the template. It's like renaming the file from ".jsx" to ".tsx". It might not be perfect, but I haven't encountered any problems with it so far.
Stocks are not something people need to buy.

Housing is, but again, there are multiple factors driving those prices up. This is coming up in the context of a cryptocurrency so there's clearly a financial conflict of interest causing people who hold cryptocurrencies to attribute the problem to monetary policy with the solution being to buy their tokens but that ignores the other factors like changes in demand due to the pandemic, well-known problems related to supply issues & zoning running back decades, increased competition from investment funds buying properties, changes in consumer buying habits, etc.
One of the odd things I noticed on my home LAN is that with good devices all around, real-world wifi speeds are now faster than wired speeds.

Wired is still more reliable, and consistency at high speed is more important than super-high-speed, but at least average throughput is a lot higher on wifi.
This is very “everyone else is such an idiot”. I feel like you’re a half step away from saying that engineers shouldn’t be allowed to learn about new tech because they’re too stupid to know when not to apply it.

If your team of engineers is incapable of determining good engineering trade-offs, and you have too little influence on the team to steer them back to a reasonable choice, it’s not really marketing’s fault.

You’re probably going to tell me again that I’m too dumb to understand that marketing impacts engineers, so let me be clear, I am well aware that marketing impacts engineers, just as it influences everyone else. But engineers are not helpless fools incapable of making decent technical decisions just because someone tried to sell them on whatever latest serverless tech.

You Have Choice and Control

You can turn off Ask Siri or Dictation at any time. To turn off Ask Siri, go to System Preferences > Siri, then turn off Listen for ‘Hey Siri’ and Enable Ask Siri. To turn off Dictation, open System Preferences > Keyboard > Dictation and turn off Dictation. If you turn off both Ask Siri and Dictation, Apple will delete Siri Data that is associated with the random identifier.

Request history associated with a random identifier and retained for six months or less can be deleted by going to System Preferences > Siri > Siri History and clicking Delete Siri & Dictation History.

You can control which apps can integrate with Use with Siri at any time by going to System Preferences > Siri > Siri Suggestions & Privacy > [app name] > Use with Ask Siri.

You can turn off Location Services for Siri by going to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy, then selecting Location Services. Click the lock to make changes and enter your password, then deselect Siri & Dictation in the list of apps and services to the right.

If you do not want Siri personalisation to sync across your devices, you can disable Siri by going to System Preferences > Apple ID > iCloud and deselecting Siri in the list of Apps on this Mac using iCloud.

You can also restrict the ability to use Siri & Dictation altogether by going to System Preferences > Screen Time > Content & Privacy > Apps > Siri & Dictation.

You can control which apps use Siri for transcription by going to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Speech Recognition.
With one phone and one pair of headphones, many cheaper truly wireless Bluetooth devices will be comparable to AirPods and probably suffer some of the same related annoyances with losing audio in one of the buds.

Moving to multiple Apple devices, the AirPods are amazing, but still suffer the annoyances OP mentioned. I can pair AirPods to phone and then move them to Mac for zoom, watch for exercise, tv for listening to content in kitchen not appropriate for younger kids. Being available across all those devices was automatic.

That said, the annoyances are real.

The weirdest situation I have had recently was some how getting the left AirPod connected to one device and right connected to a different device with audio and mics simultaneously working. Luckily, mute worked on both devices and didn’t have to speak to both at the same time.
> when clicking the active AirPods in the bluetooth list, there is a short 3~ second delay which makes you think they haven't been disconnected, leading you to click it again. But your first click did actually fire leading you to be confused as to what state you are currently in.

There is a known correct way to do this in UIs: no large delays for UI state change, even if the underlying function takes a humanly perceptible duration.

Apple used to be good at this stuff, it's just attention to detail in UX... it's not like this is an area of opinion.
>Modern front end javascript frameworks are made to offload the compute from the server to the end user. This saves the company money

Does it? I doubt hiring people to produce dozens of megabytes of compressed (!) javascript costs less than the cpu cycles it takes to produce html, especially if that's succinct html, not said megabytes of diarrhea. And "people" here almost definitely does not mean "that one guy who makes the frontend" - no single human could ever produce such abomination. For one thing he just wouldn't have the time! And then if we're frank there are no traces of humanity in twitter's front end - only the pungent smell or festering corporate development.
> … the YubiKey is being used as a portable air gapped system.

If it’s plugged into a networked system, it's not air-gapped. And if an air-gapped system is connected to any device which has previously been connected to a non-air-gapped system, it's no longer air-gapped.

I hate to nitpick, but this is really, really important.
“Can the VM be infected?”
I assume that otherwise you feel none health-related issues, and it's just the "work-mode" that's affected. I also assume, that it's not a personal discipline issue, that is you usually have no problem following your own plans to completion.

Have you tried just letting yourself not doing it (whatever kept you at the desk) for some defined time (a day/week)? If this is affordable (wrt deadlines or income), then after awhile you may get bored with the not-doing and may feel the draw to get back to work on it again (thanks, the personal discipline).

Another thing I'd try would be to see if there's some subject blocker there, either specific to what you currently study or more general to the direction of your studies.

It may help just to talk to fellow students about a course/topic, or to a prof, even TA at the tutoring sesssion about your thoughts re direction of studies. Most people have had this sort of blockers at some point in life, different experiences, different solutions, but common feeling at the time.

And, of course, a universal advice. Get in tune with your animal nature - sleep well, eat well, take walks outside (rain or shine), use your body as designed, the mind will recharge!
Bluetooth audio is a mess with no way out.

I really think that Apple is going to just drop Bluetooth audio at some point and make their own protocol, with Bluetooth perhaps being the "green bubble" fallback option.

Yeah, the "wait one extra pay period" to get your first paycheck is clearly one of those "because we can" demonstrations of power by employers.
I definitely get a kick out of seeing it, very nostalgic. I had a few shows on my college radio station (88.5 WRUR in Rochester, NY) back in the early 90's, including the 9am news slot on Friday mornings and a brutal 3-6am slot on Wednesday mornings where I did whatever the heck I wanted (nobody was listening at that hour anyway).

I think it's largely Parkinson's law.

Computers are faster so it becomes viable to build slower, more complex and less efficient systems.

By large, computer systems have similar capacities as they did 20 years ago, and similar performance too; only difference is that back then we accomplished the same thing on a potato processor, and today we use a world brain.
Is that really any dumber than doing any similarly dangerous industrial jobs that require a lot of training?

I've "enjoyed" most of these including the occasional loud blast of white noise when trying to connect, and my favourite; they disconnect immediately when there's no output for a few seconds and then take a few seconds to re-connect. Mac OSX also doesn't seem to enjoy that, immediately reconnecting takes a bit and often fails. They're nice but they suffer from "trying to be smart" but end up being annoying.

That's entirely fair, but the issue is the demand for the less bulky bluetooth headset isn't there. To think that this will be solved from the supply-side is wishful thinking at best; if folks really demanded repairable headsets, the supply would take care of itself.
It must not be - even Apple has kept it on their laptops and desktops.

Admitting past decisions were bad is hard.
Science seems to be a rather stretchable concept lately.

What about "unconstitutional"? No people want to know your medical status, that used to be protected privacy. Also how can we block people from going outside or gathering?

Maybe for 10% deaths that's a reasonable thing to ask, but for <1% this is waaaay out of proportion for my taste.
Yes, that's the obvious conclusion. But surely you can see how clients needing to deliberately refrain from standard pleasantries doesn't contribute to lawyers having a good reputation.
Not to mention how the wired apple earphones are way better in terms of audio quality during calls than airpods (own both, and airpod "pro" to boot). Heck, during most calls, my colleagues tell me that the sound is way better when I use my macbook air builtin microphone than when I use my airpods .. on zoom, ms teams, whatever. Not to mention how my airpods pro started discharging in a skewed manner - with one ear piece discharging faster than the other. None of these are problems with the wired earphones.
I'm surprised by the popular take on this. Hasn't HN spent the last 3 years lamenting how the FAA ceded too much regulatory power to industry?

... because this is where it starts. The answer to "there are regulatory inefficiencies" is not "get rid of regulations" or "allow industry to self-regulate."

Some people hate to be physically tethered to their desk from their head. Maybe wireless headphones have to be paired and charged, but that beats standing up an pulling your laptop to the floor while your headphones are jerked off your head. And nothing is better than being able to pace around while on a call.
A few things here:

1. We pay basically the same prices for dedicated hardware you would. Hetzner is cheap, in part, because they run in a single facility and optimize for price. We run in 22 locations and optimize for "cheap enough for most app devs".

2. All our servers are AMD Epyc CPUs – meaning more expensive than consumer CPUs. Our margin on hardware is almost exactly 70%, if that helps.

We're not competing with Hetzner, Hetzner is a great f'n company. If they do what you need we'd rather you use Hetzner. I could give you some TCO nonsense but I won't. I do think we're a pretty good value though!

Marketing is all about lying. Making up fake reviews, customer testimonials.

Exaggerating (which is lying) about the product.

Explaining how good it will make you feel, or better yet, showing photos of people very happy, using the products.

Acting = lying, photshopped photos = lying, fictitious scenarios of use = lying.

Lying is required to write a story (when you read a fiction book, you want the lie about reality, for it is fun to imagine.)

This is a lie all parties engage in willingly.

But marketing types have a sole purpose. To lie, but make it look like truth.

So they don't care one iota about really updating an article or not.
> And it Just Works. Although my Mac has a tendency to switch back to my speakers (also bluetooth) after ~15 minutes without my input, that's really annoying.

So, what you're saying is, it doesn't just work!

I promise I’m not trying to be sassy! This is exactly the type of issue I always run into with wireless audio, and basically never experience with wired headphones. I hate these types of little, persistent annoyances.

I don't like wires either, to be clear, but I think they're a small price to pay for their reliability.
Almost all of the issues you described I have also experienced with AirPods.

Sometimes going into the Bluetooth menu and selecting them is not even enough to convince them to play audio from my phone. I had to get out of bed and turn off the Bluetooth on my laptop.
So your argument for why Airpods suck is that "hey, everything else sucks too"? I thought Apple was supposed to be a shining beacon of simplicity, hence they should absolutely "just work".
