Check the tone of the comments by myself and trog above, we're a mostly friendly nation happy to meet people from across the globe, currently something like 25% of the Australian population was born overseas.

If you look at the graph I linked in a comment above you can see the current pressure - way more new people arriving than normal .. overstressing the existing means for absorbing fresh meat into the BBQ Borg collective.

The extremists we have a few but feral .. we have small pockets of bush nazis and some leafy suburbs with nervous elders who remember a distant White Australia policy. I think they're most worried about the first people moving in next door: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hu0_Hb7QRlw
This happens exactly the same for instance on Mac or Windows with BT headphones, it's simply a fact of Bluetooth. If at any point you open an app that accesses the microphone of the earbuds / headphones, the format will downgrade from high-quality, playback only BT profile to a low-quality duplex profile. There's no high quality duplex audio profile in the Bluetooth protocol yet afaik, and certainly not implemented by any vendor. Just do t use Bluetooth if you care about sound quality is the answer.

No catharsis or inspiration?

2014. Finals of 4x400m female relay for the European Women's Championship.[0]

The last French runner, Floria Gueï, gets the baton passed to her in a distant 4th place, well behind the top 3 favorites for the race: Russia, Ukraine and UK.

In her own 400m solo race she was eliminated in the semifinals, a titanic disappointment. And now she is so far behind in the relay race, the French TV commentators are focusing on watching the battle unfold at the front and writing her off as a lost cause.

That day, she performed one of the most impressive comebacks in the history of the sport to finish in first place.

I would say that there is way more catharsis and inspiration in watching someone beat their own limits and rise above the odds, than you can find in most of fiction entertainment. I certainly don't find Rocky or Die Hard to be more impressive or inspirational as this 2-minute video.

Years ago I worked on a calendar application with recurrence. After lots of research I settled on using RRules to represent this, which I was very pleased with. That initial work was when I was at an agency.

Later I joined the company full time and discovered to my amazement that a contractor from a different company had removed the RRules in favour of creating and destroying instances of events on the fly. It had no/little fault tolerance so sometimes the script (which did other things that would sometimes fail) would fail to create new events. You'd have monthly recurring events with missing months.

I found it so frustrating that (after going through a lot of thought and research) that someone hadn't put anywhere near as much effort into removing mine. It took just a few weeks at that company to realise that the CEO expected the Engineering team to pump out features (that nobody used) at his will and, in the uncertainty of the job market, sadly I stayed there for 2 years.

Unrelated footnote: After Googling them, it's really sad to see what are blatantly fake reviews by the CEO on Glassdoor all written in the same style with nothing bad to say. I (and a bunch of other people I know who worked there) hated him, but the silver lining is that I wrote some of my best essays there. The CTO was hopeless too.
What I particularly like about the Descript version (though it is overdone as mentioned) is that it reduces or eliminates the pesky S sounds and P sounds (called sibilances and plosives) that you get when you talk into a microphone and you're not perfectly distanced from it.

I haven't found another app that reduces or removes these.

As someone who started to loose his hair in the mid 20s and thinning until I buzzed it in my mid 30s. I will say that being bald sucks especially considering meeting people, sexual attraction and possibly your own perception of yourself.
Having said that I don't think about it at all normally, but I'm not gonna pretend it doesn't matter.

Loads of people take the 'high road' and say it doesn't matter but having hair is such an level up that its ridiculous. Maybe more now in a digital age with Snapchat, tiktok, youtube, tinder than before - looks have become way more important.

Here's an example of balding vs hair and there are loads of such examples on the web; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72wf4NLglOY

> Apple pretends they don't need antivirus the same way some Linux advocates will, but viruses exist on both platforms.

Sure. But when was the last time a company was in the news when they were hit with macOS-, iOS-, or Linux-based ransomware?

I'm in IT, but Windows was never my thing/niche. Generally I've viewed two problems with it:

1. when it becomes a monoculture where basically everything in the company runs on it

2. something about its architecture/designs appears (to me, at least) for very easy spreading of malware (does it have some weaker SSH-equivalent that allows easy remote control?)

Just ask Maersk about these two points:

I would be surprised if Orca did use Pulse directly, it uses speech-dispatcher (IIRC) which then uses PA if configured that way.

Also, Accessibility != Audio. I, for instance, use Braille only. No need for speech synthesis. So equating Accessibility issues wth the crazy audio stack is a little bit too simple.
I'm a carnivore, but that's a very weak argument.

Even if it were true - it isn't, incisors are for cutting grass and fruits too - humans are more than anything, adaptable, and our survival and evolution sits on the top of that adaptability.

We are who we are because, between other things, we eat whatever is available and plenty.

If meat becomes a luxury product, and/or becomes even more dangerous to the environment to the point it's even less sustainable, the proper naturalist argument would be we shall need to adapt and stop eating meat altogether.

Às I said, though, I'm quite fond of my Picanha, and sincerely hope I can get to eat a sustainable version of it at some point in my life so I can do it with a bit less of a guilt.
I have a blog that's connected to my academic website. While my homepage gets some traffic from people googling papers, my blog gets much less. I post a few times each year, mostly about stuff I've been reading. I did have one post go viral-ish a few years ago (https://bcmullins.github.io/foreign-affairs-100/).

I was surprised to find that some workplace acquaintances and even students read my blog. A colleague out-of-the-blue messaged me about some python function I'd written (https://bcmullins.github.io/parsing-json-python/). A student asked about reading recommendations and how I choose books. So people you know IRL may be reading your stuff (or some of it) but just not mentioning it.

As another post mentioned, I feel much more pressure about my writing after learning that IRL people read it.

I am using a pseudonym on my blog and I tend to use a different pseudonym on all websites/services/medias I use. I have often pondered wether I should just publish under my own name or not. The thing is once you do that, there is no going back and I have never felt ready for that.

I know it puts off some people who mistake that for anonymity and think this is ruining the web, that people can't behave if they aren't talking under their own name, I respect that.

I am not looking for anonymity. I don't pretend to hide from authorities. However pseudonimity allows me to express myself while not engaging my current or future employers directly.
Yeah so you determine the offset at display time. Store “Europe/Amsterdam”, not “UTC+1” so that if Amsterdam (or likelier, the Netherlands) decides to shift timezone or move the DST change dates or something insane like that, before the event occurs, you can trivially take that into account by updating to the newest tzdata file.

Converting from timezone to offset is a lossy conversion.
"I eat real meat!"

Cultivated meat IS real meat from meat cells, it is not a meat imitation based on soy, wheat or whatever. Potentially much safer. Think of dead zombie disease or suspected cancer risk of beef.

why do you think that cultivated meat would ultimately be different? It will definitely be more customizable - Kobe, Angus, Wagyu - just select the corresponding option in the app.

And i see at some point convergence of technologies - human transplant growing would be pretty much the same tech, just the options in the app would be different, like how much kevlar to add into the heart muscle.

I took cyclosporin for a while in my youth. One side effect is increased hair growth. Every where. I looked like a Wookie. I was even shaving my ears. Us patients would lose all our hair (chemo, radiation) and then a few months latter look like plush toys. Pretty wild.

> Peradventure is a good word. Do you have to be a lawyer to know it?

Agreed that it's a good word. I'd never heard or seen it myself until I was a mid-level partner at my then-law firm, and our senior partner used the phrase "beyond peradventure."
Where did you get "connected" from? We're talking about whether they are "a trio of mutual friends" or not; that requires them all to be friends with each other, not merely "connected".
I don't think you are quite talking about the same kind of design here.

You are talking about very high level choices. (Do we bundle a charger with every new phone? does the phone have a jack?) Those are not really good examples where familiarity is important.

The argument about the importance of familiarity is in the UX paradigm of the phone. Think about the task of pairing a phone with a wifi network. You usually do that by unlocking the phone, finding the settings (which is most likely under an icon resembling a gear, or a spanner, even though neither of those things had anything to do with setting up wifi). Then inside the settings you have a long list of things you can set, you can move between them by dragging the screen up and down. You find the menu item for wifi (probably has a wifi logo, or radio waves icon) you click that. Then you see something where you can turn the wifi radio on or off, and you see a list of SSID's you can join. You click the one you want to join, and it asks you for the password associated with the network. Usually you can tap the password field and an on-screen keyboard appears where you can type the password in.

This is by and far the way to connect to a wifi on any modern smart phones. This is the "familiar".

To better illustrate what "lack of familiarity" would mean imagine a phone where instead of finding the wifi settings in a "settings" menu you can connect to a new wifi in the maps app. Why? Wifi networks are location dependent, so why not? These designers decided that wifi networks appear as small colourful dots on the map. Then imagine if after tapping your selection from the list of SSID's you would need to push a button on the side of the phone to "accept" it. Otherwise it won't connect. Then imagine that instead of showing you an on-screen keyboard to type in the password you need to morse-code tap the password in by tapping the back of the phone. The phone would indicate this to you by showing an icon of a drum kit.

This is what "lack of familiarity" would look like. Clearly this imaginary phone would be very hard to use, and the users would reward the manufacturer's creative thinking with a lot of returns and complaints.

I love personal websites but I don't really like blogs. I prefer when people can rework/refine some of their pages instead of publishing new blog posts related to previous ones when revisiting a topic. And as a writer it allows me to write whenever I feel like to. With a blog you kind of feel guilty if you don't publish on a regular basis, and end up abandoning it altogether too easily if you cannot sustain a rhythm. A web page doesn't force you into a rhythm. A blog might be useful for historians in the future, when chronology might be useful but as a publisher and casual reader I find it lazy and unwelcoming for the reader.

I do like however personnal pages that have a small log mentionning the updates to which I can subscribe to.
