There are so many variables to this it's obnoxious. What do you define as loud? Are you using them in ANC? Is it regular Airpods or Airpods Pro? Do you notice tinnitus after using ear plugs for a while? When listening to music other ways?

I have tinnitus due to ear infections when I was younger. In my subjective experience, my AirPod Pro's have not changed it in any meaningful way. I use them enough that I have two pairs of APP so I can swap when the batteries die. Now I also have added AirPod Max when I don't want the "joys" of fully in ear. Only mention that because they have similar ANC.

The challenge with tinnitus is that it's highly subjective and can vary based on a lot of things. Just take a skim of https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/tinnitus/symp... -- There are 8 "Other causes" listed, with the last one being "including diabetes, thyroid problems, migraines, anemia, and autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus have all been associated with tinnitus."

There are certainly days when my Tinnitus is worse, to the point where I have to have sound on to keep me mentally stable. Other days when I forget I even have it.

TLDR: If you have ringing in your ears that is bothering you, see a doctor.
I don't really understand why people like signals again. I used a signals-like reactive programming model in VueJS a while ago and hated that you could never be sure exactly where things were being changed. Thankfully it seems that the React creators and maintainers are not hopping on the signals train and are instead adamant about unidirectional dataflow with explicit mapping of state to UI, which, as has been the reason for why React had been invented in the first place, makes reasoning about the application much easier [0][1].

This is a good thread about their drawbacks [2]. Apparently, both the below examples actually do different things:

function One(props) {
const doubleCount = props.count * 2;
return <div>Count: {doubleCount}</div>
}

function Two(props) {
return <div>Count: {props.count * 2}</div>
}

Like the tweeter says, signals are mutable state. I'll stick with unidirectional data flow in React.

> There's a wave function, it obeys the Schrödinger equation."

Or perhaps more precisely: "There is no wave function. The wave-function we talk about is just a mathematical recipe for computing the expected test-observations".

Functions are abstract things, they don't exist in the physical world. They only describe the physical world, at best.

So that really leaves the question why do our measurement results follow the predictions of the wave-function unanswered. I think we would like to come up with some theory of why the wave-function so closely predicts our observations.

Mezquita and Hagia Sophia: two sacred symbols – culture wars belie their history
Here's a real-world example of using C# to create a set of file paths, aiming to eliminate duplicates. I'd've written this in Java as:

Set<File> s = new HashSet<File>();

s.add( new File( "c:/temp" ) );
s.add( new File( "c:/temp" ) );

System.out.println( s.size() );

This prints 1.

The C# code:

ISet<FileInfo> s = new HashSet<FileInfo>();

s.Add( new FileInfo( "c:/temp" ) );
s.Add( new FileInfo( "c:/temp" ) );

Console.WriteLine( s.Count );

This prints 2.

They are line-for-line identical. IMO, Java prints the correct result. C# may have reasons for this behaviour, but when you're looking at the code, it's not obvious that two FileInfo objects for the same paths are not equal.

When I wrote KeenWrite[0], I chose Java because of all the reasons you mentioned, plus JavaFX. JavaFX is one of the richest cross-platform GUI libraries available for desktop applications, although it does have quirks.

I don't use AirPods specifically but every pair of ANC headphones I've used all exhibit that pressure that I feel but can't hear. I wish there was a way to dial down the ANC amount for less effective cancellation along with less ambient pressure.

If I really want quiet like on a plane, I'll use non-ANC earbuds with good passive isolation and put a light pair of Bose cancellation headphones with no signal over top.
The choice of language is never irrelevant. Especially if you are launching a start up. You are about to build the foundation of your future development architecture.
For example C++ is a great choice for heavy data processing and number crunching, but horrible when aggregating multiple web services or building HTML. PHP is like the opposite and Java is a poor choice for either (imho).
Also you will need more developers later on who fit into your working culture. Good C++ devs are likely slightly older than your average NodeJS-Hacker and they care about family and such non-work-related stuff.
Haskell guys would probably stay for some late hours to discuss wether their new typeclass is just satisfying a semigroup or fulfills all monad laws…

My advice: choose a well adapted language from the field of industry you aim for: general web/e-commerce - NodeJS/TypeScript, automotive/industry/embedded - C++, finance - .Net/C#/F#, Science: Python

It is likely more of a niche market, but niche markets can be profitable as well, especially on a worldwide scale. And given that it seems to require additional pre-prompting or fine-tuning for Bing to not exhibit that behavior, it wouldn’t cost much to make that mode available as well. The main reason not to do so seams to be worries about the brand image or possible backlash from certain societal groups.

In any case, I wanted to counter the statement that “People don’t want a friend who occasionally becomes belligerent and spouts 4chan conspiracies.” Some people actually do want that, in particular the emotional personality part. And maybe more people than you’d think, especially when it’s just an online text bot that you can turn on and off at will.

To clarify, I don’t think much of their excuse, this is obviously a situation the distilleries should be trying to fix, and so on. Mostly just a caution not to assume the solution is simple, obvious, and risk-free. Making spirits is not a science, nor even an art - it’s luck, and mass-producing spirits is like trying to crystallize that luck and replicate it. It’s like being told to fix a legacy codebase to stop throwing errors, except nobody understands the codebase, not even the people who wrote it. Oh and any subtle change you make can destroy the current production database as well as four years of backups.

This part at the end is something I use a lot to re-attach to a running session:

The -d makes the sessions resize to match the current scrren size which is useful for me because I use different screen resolutions on both laptops.
That difference in the snippet you mentioned has 100% to do with how Solid is compiling its JSX, and 0% to do with how signals must work.

Did they merge it?
In college, we had to wire wrap an 8-bit (6809) CPU with an EPROM and UART to connect a terminal. It looked nothing like your image. A 16 bit address bus, 8 bit data and only RAM/ROM/UART sharing the "bus" meant that the wiring was actually quite neat and it was transparent what wires were doing what. Inevitably, part of the work involved diagnosing poor wraps which would clearly be impossible with that pile of spaghetti in your image. It was one of the most fun projects we had in the 4 years. I thought it very valuable as it brought software (writing a simple monitor using a cross-compiler) and hardware together.
yea i always do `tmux new -s dev` to start one and `tmux attach -t dev` to attach

correct me if im wrong but it seems like i can just do `tmux new -L dev` and `tmux attach -L dev` which is actually better than my old muscle memory. its a win-win for me

edit: actually jk it doesnt work.

meh who cares i always put my env vars in ~/.profile its weird how OP doesnt mention that at all

That's basically the conclusion Wolfram made in this excessively long article [0] he wrote (which is nonetheless worth a read):

> The specific engineering of ChatGPT has made it quite compelling. But ultimately (at least until it can use outside tools) ChatGPT is “merely” pulling out some “coherent thread of text” from the “statistics of conventional wisdom” that it’s accumulated. But it’s amazing how human-like the results are. And as I’ve discussed, this suggests something that’s at least scientifically very important: that human language (and the patterns of thinking behind it) are somehow simpler and more “law like” in their structure than we thought. ChatGPT has implicitly discovered it. But we can potentially explicitly expose it, with semantic grammar, computational language, etc.

theoretically. it's never going to match the input exactly though and therefore it will generate noise of its own. it's conceivable that there would be less variation in this noise, due to quantized nature of the system that synthesizes the cancellation, and that a fixed synthesized signal for long durations could exhaust parts of the cochlea that are used to the high variability of natural sounds and/or trigger an adaptation in auditory cortex.

or the software is bad or the anc mic fails, and it generates a high pitched whine that causes short term tinnitus.

just spitballing because it's fun. would be interesting to analyze the frequency responses to benchtop and realistic scenarios for anc in modern earbuds.

also would be interesting to understand the psychophysical response to those behaviors!
@dang I'm not sure what the correct approach is to ask about this - my comment on this thread was flagged.

Okay, choose your back-end language randomly.

I suspect you are wrong, and that the differences are relevant (and the optimum choice or set of choices depends on a lot on what specifically you are doing), but if you think the value of getting the choice right is outweighed by the cost of evaluation, or if you think there is no difference, go ahead and choose randomly. It's your (and your investors', if any) money, not mine, and you should definitely do what you think is right.

Most are building industrial capacity and modern infrastructure. Degrowth is something you do after growth.

yes, let us quibble: not tested to the degree required for regular FDA approval as safe and effective, hence “Emergency Use Authorization”. I think maybe piling on the OP is unwarranted here.

IIRC in the UK the vaccines were touted by fact checkers as having “stopped hospitalisation and death from covid”, even though this was clearly not true from ONS data (yet more controversy abounds[1], predictably government statistics are intrinsically flawed because official agendas take precedence over reality[2]).

Have a look at this: https://www.heise.de/download/product/bitfummler-70589?hg=1&...
the basic answer is that tinnitus is inflammation. so in order we reduce inflammation is either sumpplementation of food or avoidance of behavior that induces that response so the avoidance is possible through strength and conditioning like another commentor mentioned tensor tympani muscle activation is primary defense. secondary would be healthy diet.
furthermore : a device that augments noise cancellation invokes a third princiople regarding muscles use it or lose it.

theres a single cause to this which is damage to cilary hairs now under my own subjective belief is that these are a growable or compensatable based on the outcome of blind patients with increased hearing ability

Your concept looks nice, it reminds me a bit of the Lisperati: https://www.hackster.io/news/the-lisperati1000-is-a-cyberdec...

So, did you consider Lisp or maybe Smalltalk? Plan 9 or Inferno might also be options.

Plan 9 comes in different variants, the "classic" one (with a Raspberry Pi port by Richard Miller) or 9front, an Inferno porting tutorial can be found at https://github.com/yshurik/inferno-rpi

Lisp and Smalltalk can run with or without Linux underneath, e.g. on the Raspberry Pi.

Bare-metal Lisp is available with interim: http://interim-os.com

Finally, bare-metal Smalltalk is available in my crosstalk system: https://github.com/michaelengel/crosstalk

Of course, Lisp and Smalltalk can also run hosted under Linux, e.g. using Squeak (https://squeak.org), Pharo (https://pharo.org) or InterLisp (https://github.com/Interlisp/medley).

Or - a crazy idea - build an emacs-only machine. That would be fun! :)
