The one I have and most I've seen support two connections so I can have both PC and laptop output sound on some speakers.
You could probably chain a multi input receiver to a single output transmitter via 3.5mm to your Bluetooth headphones and just toggle connections on the receiver to select the device you want your headphones to use.

The bad news is the latency which is about 200ms regularly and 40ms with APT Low Latency or 80ms with APT Adaptive. If you go BT > BT RX > BT TX > BT this might be doubled. Both devices will also need to support the same codes and only newer devices support APT Adaptive.

Read the definition of right to work: "the term "right-to-work laws" refers to state laws that prohibit union security agreements between employers and labor unions which require employees who are not union members to contribute to the costs of union representation"

In EU this is already a thing, we see this is as a natural right to workers. In USA this is a hot topic, liberal states have unions forcing you to pay for membership even if you aren't a member.

> Even more strongly, trying to learn math without a solid understanding of how proofs work is something like studying English literature while refusing to learn how to read English.

It depends why you're trying to learn math. Are you interested in math for math's sake, or are you trying to actually do something with it?

If it's the former, then yeah, you need proofs. Otherwise, like in your analogy, it's like studying English literature without knowing any english grammar rules.

But if you're trying to apply the math, if you're studying linear algebra because it's useful rather than for its own sake, then you don't need proofs. To follow the same analogy, it's like learning enough English to be conversational and get around America, without knowing what an "appositive" is.

The software industry, similarly, is full of people who make use of computer science concepts, without having rigorously studying computer science. You can't learn true "computer science" without an understanding of discrete math, but you can certainly get a job as an entry-level SWE without one. You don't need discrete math to learn python, see that it's useful, and do something interesting with it.

The same applies to linear algebra. Everyone who does vector math doesn't need to be able to prove that the tools they are using work. If everyone who does vector math is re-deriving their math from first principles, then something's gone terribly wrong. There's a menu of known, well-defined treatments that can be applied to vectors, and one can read about them and trust that they work without having proven why they work.

EDIT: it occurs to me, an even stronger analogy of this point, is that it is entirely possible to study computer science, without having any understanding of electrical engineering or knowing how a transistor works.

Their mass production of the Pi keyboard should clue you into at least one direction that they believe "the Pi is all about"; education, and increasing access to modern computing hardware. Enhancing the performance envelope and connecting to a monitor do, to me, seem like worthy steps toward that end.

Everyone uses general purpose computers differently. I feel your statement "they've forgotten what the RPi is all about" isn't just ignorant; its hurtful. Maybe their direction isn't parallel with what you want out of the products they make, but you should at least have the empathy to recognize that you aren't the main character in this play.
I made a CLI for devs that allows file sharing in seconds
Hello HN!

I started cs uni a couple of weeks ago and found myself and my friends struggling with C.

So, we'd send our files to each other, trying to debug a language we'd never coded in.

However, git, google drive, dropbox and sharing flows consumed too much time.

ZIP - Upload - Authorize - Share Link - Download - Unzip - Move

That's why I made ICS/Instantaneous Code Sharing (Im very creative ik).

Essentially a CLI with which you can share/receive files via terminal

Im sharing this bc I think it can benefit someone else as well

The difference?

- just 2 commands to get started, `npm i -g ics-cli && ics username reserve <username>`

- receive files to your current dir

- password protect files

- encrypted (at rest but its sth)

- the tedious tasks (unzip, download, move) are done automatically

- no need to leave your active workspace

- CDN coming soon

- its free

A co-worker in the early 90s (he was a tech writer) told me of a cost savings device he invented in the 80s at Texas Instruments to fix a process where occasionally a mirror on a very expensive piece of military camera gear got scratched (I think it was during field disassembly). It was basically some forceps with more metal welded on to make them longer and that allowed you access via a different route than where the mirror was installed. TI gave cost savings awards as a percentage of money saved and he did very, very well with that little invention.

It depends on how much you mess up. Mess up large enough as an employee and you can end up sued by your former employer. Losing a lawsuit is losing capital.

Facebook ARPU for Europe is $19.04 per quarter, or $6.33 per month. This is based on monthly active users and includes Messenger. If you adjust for that - someone paying for a subscription is likely to be much more active than an average monthly user - it's likely that 10 EUR is a loss. The big winners are Apple and Google getting their cut if it's an IAP.

The economics are even worse in US/Canada, where an MAU is worth $56.11 per quarter, or $18.70 per month.

(EURUSD is 1.06, near parity.)

Unions are labor monopolies, so there are a lot of missing positive incentives, while offering incentives for corruption

My employer has a monopoly on providing me with a paycheck, with tons of incentives for mistreatment and corruption.

I'm told that if I dislike this, I should go find another job, or start my own company. Perhaps that could be the solution for someone who doesn't like their current job's union..?

Part of the secret sauce of silicon valley is CA doesn't allow non-competes, so there's a lot of employee churn. Too much or too little are both bad, but some churn spreads ideas across the industry, leveling up everyone's game.

I understand that some people want the stability of a lifer, but in innovative industries, this is a negative, and I'd rather see a better social safety net from the government to make people comfortable with taking risks and changing jobs.

I saved my company $1 million a year a couple of months ago by noticing that there was an S3 bucket that kept growing and costing 80k a month.

I poked around and realized that there was a system that we weren't using anymore that was copying files to the bucket I reached out to the stakeholders and they turned it off and we deleted the files.

The higher-ups didn't seem to really care, My boss's boss told me to reach out to another team that should've caught this and that was about it.
Some of the jobs go up to $180k/yr. That's not too bad considering it doesn't look like it requires DC location. But others like the grad assistant for $22/hr is laughable.

With no customers, one of the purposes of code-review is removed, but it's the lesser one anyway. The primary goal of code-review should _not_ be to "catch mistakes" in a well-functioning engineering team - that's a thing that happens, but mostly your CI handles that. Code-review is about unifying approaches, cross-pollinating strategies and techniques, and helping each other to improve as engineers.

Your attitude towards code-review on the other hand is one I've seen before several times, and I was glad when each of those people were fired.
But that's precisely what makes this a good exercise, you can see how far you are able to close the gap between the naive looping implementation and the optimized array implementation.
Recoding America[1] is an excellent book about this problem, but it extends a lot further than just contractors charging inflated rates. The government itself has a culture that is so averse to trying new things and compliance with existing policy that it's actually dangerous to the careers of civil servants to do anything innovative, because that is one of the only things they can actually be fired for.

The solution she proposes effectively would be an expansion of the US Digital Service (which the author spearheaded) into something that approximates the British civil service, which is actually highly functional and effective.

If you actually care about this problem and have a spare Audible credit it's worth a listen.

> and the unspeakably horrible lifestyles of centuries ago.

That sounds like an over-the-top fairy tale to constructed justify modern society.

I assume by "unspeakably horrible lifestyle" you don't mean something like "lack of color television." That's an assumption I have to state, because there are a surprising number of people who say they consider the lack of modern creature-comforts to be something "unspeakably horrible" and that they'd rather die than be without them.

That said, I'm sure you could cherrypick an "unspeakably horrible lifestyle" out of the history books, just like I can cherrypick an "unspeakably horrible lifestyle" out of the news. I also wouldn't be surprised if the ultimate causes are the same or similar for both. Such cherry-picked examples don't speak to typical experience and don't speak to what's possible.
Client work is its own unique hell of misaligned incentives. You've just replaced one boss with a dozen bosses, all of which have the power to "promote" or fire you.

I'm not saying that any one individual can't find a job that is the unique perfect blend of incentives for them, indeed, the entire point of this framework is that alignment between your goals and the incentives of your job is the most powerful lever an employee can pull. But that incentive structure will necessarily make others working there deeply unhappy as its unique choice of tradeoffs is just shitty in a way invisible to you.

The people telling you to roll this out slowly are doing so mostly to protect themselves from having their incompetence exposed and to appear useful. Protecting them will help them steal your credit and will get them promoted.
I find the luck vs. hard-work a weird dichotomy - both are true and both are false.

If you don't work hard, you probably won't be successful. But if hard-work were sufficient for success then the richest person in the world, or the President, or however we measure success would also the hardest working, which I don't think most people who agree with.

Similarly, although I think most sports-people would be acknowledged to be very hard-working, there is a matter of luck in their success - you need to find the right sport for you, you need to avoid injury, you need to perform at your best on the day of the big competition / when the talent-scout is visiting.

Perhaps it's just a problem of perspective - if you are relatively successful to begin with you can see that there are a lot of people less successful than you who worked harder by some metric and so would attribute success more to luck and connections than hard-work; if you are relatively unsuccessful, perhaps the correlation between success and hard-work is more immediate - you see that the people who work hard are more successful than you, and that those who slack-off are not.
These are not quite equivalent, since using the hodge dual explicitly incorporates the geometry of space in a way left implicit by your geometric algebra formulation.

No it's not. Plenty of people don't like math and it has nothing to do with how the universe works. The way that math is taught to most people is absolutely atrocious, involving rote memorization, following rules for the sake of following rules, very little intuition involved.

If anything, most people who express a hatred of math do so because it's taught to them in a way that completely divorces it from the universe or anything whatsoever.

Most people I know who appreciate math did not learn it at school, but learned it either at home from their parents, or learned it independently. I have also made it my own responsibility to make sure my daughter learns math from me and applies math to every day situations and can develop a basic mathematical intuition.

The unsaid part is that this kind of situation is everywhere. It only really hits home when (IMO) when you’ve had a couple of decades in the industry. We have totally squandered the abundance of resources in many sites/situations/use-cases. Whether it be IOPS or threads or memory or network bandwidth and latency. Yes premature optimisation is the root of all evil, but the other side of that coin is pretty ugly looking too. Not even because of monetary waste in many cases, but because of unnecessary complexity and fragility. For what? A slightly higher level of abstraction? A bit more interoperability? A marginal gain in some other metric?

My dad did this once. He drained the acid from a car battery and put it in a container with a narrow opening, then dropped in a bunch of zinc galvanized nails. Sulfuric acid + zinc = hydrogen gas. He then stretched balloons over the mouth of the container to inflate them, tied them up, and attached a strip of newspaper to the bottom. Finally, he lit the bottom of the newspaper on fire and let it go. Balloon floats up, makes pretty fireball.

We ran into two problems. First, a number of the flames blew out on their way up. No fireball.

Second, we ran out of balloons pretty fast. So he cast around for ideas, and decided to fall back on a box of condoms. They held a lot more hydrogen than the balloons.

They were also equally likely to go out before blowing up. I always imagined them coming down on someone's lawn, causing no end of confusion.
