   I think that's just marketing bait trying to get to amateurs' ego for them to become self declared audio enthusiasts.

   "will definitely sound better than the HomePod" -- hard to make that statement without actually hearing it. The technology behind it looks promising.

   Supposedly it is a very good speaker, so if you compare it to Sonus Play3 or Play5 it is within that range.

    Very nice. This reminded me of a tool that my college professor created many years ago called The World of the Actors [1]. He used in his class to teach Smalltalk and OOP. I can't seem to be able to find the source, though. [1] https:

    Make sure you ask for a ceiling as well. I asked for a small office and I got one. It doesn't have ceiling because my boss didn't want to put one, for whatever reason, so it is useless.

    Is there any tool that converts one to the other? I think it is worst to have such similarities with very small different details than having completely different languages. For a developer working on both ecosystems it feels like hell to r

    While doing the calculations I read "Cost of Powerball ticket" instead of "Cost of Powerwall battery"... laughed loud as it would be useful to help pay it off.

    I had the same thought when they announced those push buttons for products. Unfortunately, the truth is that pretty soon you will be able to send nudes just using your voice.

    yeah, this is very suspicious. I just can't think how "fashion critic" is actually what motivated this.

    I agree with multi-tasking only with other "automatic tasks", but regarding the kind of audiobook my list looks like yours in reverse. I've listened to dozens of audiobooks and by far my favorites are the nonfiction with tech

    Any recommendation? I have found many podcasts that use this format of mixing the narration with voices and sounds from people in the story and this is so distracting and annoying to me. I never go beyond one episode when that's the fo
