A nice idea, but living space is limited and expensive in most major cities.

Germany has about as many cases in total as NY, yet less than 1/2 of the deaths. The death rate seems high in NY, maybe because hospitals could not cope?

Or they found a good market fit with privacy conscious customers and are going all the way. Either way, it's a win for the consumer.

i am not saying there is no valid need for it, but nowadays it's a niche need and the market seems to have moved on. I was very skeptical of bluetooth for a long time, but the current generation of devices, especially those with Apples

i have a chromecast audio on the stereo which i find more convenient to use anyway because you can keep using your phone like normal while the chromecast is running spotify. For rare cases where I need direct audio, Bluetooth audio receiver

i use bluetooth airpods for calls and even for cycling long distances. They are very light and basically no messing around with bluetooth. Battery life isn't stellar, but enough for a couple of hours continued use and when i put them i

my car also doesn't have BT, i use a cheap adapter to charge and have audio out at the same time. It's not great, but in your case you would also have to run two wires, so not really a difference.

I don't really get the hate for the lack of a headphone jack tbh. Have people complaining about this ever really given good bluetooth headphones a chance? My Beats Solo 3 have fantastic battery life, i can switch between devices with a

Some bluetooth headphones have outstanding battery life. Beats Solo 3 for example. Personally I have no reason to go back to wired headphones, just switching them between devices with a click of a button is so convenient.

This is a cool hack but is it really legal? In the EU speedometers have to be carefully calibrated, have strict regulations to pass and your car is not allowed to drive with a broken one. Just replacing it with a, sometimes spotty, GPS sign

they are often "up to 1Gbps" and also not available everywhere. In my area it's also at least 70 EUR, so I am fine with 400Mbps at home.

if you work for smaller or non-tech companies maybe. My employers in the last 5 years have all had at least 1Gbps, current one has 10Gbps and a 2Gbps backup.

That's a bit harsh on F1 drivers tbh. Sure, ultimately you need money, but Senna started early in Karting and was already showing great talent there allowing him to get financial backing and support that helped him further his career.

Doesn't the median age of 60 years for positively diagnosed patients suggest a huge number of non-detected cases?

I wouldn't be surprised if it's similar. Many countries, even ones in Europe with high infection rates, still don't test people if they don't show severe symptoms because they don't have the capacity to do it on a l

That might work well if you are single and have no obligations in live, all power to you but it's just not an option for many.

(from the article) 80% of people who died were over 60 years old and 75% had underlying health conditions including cardiovascular problems, so the fact that the virus caused fatal cardiovascular events in some of those cases is not unexpec

Due to PSD2 every bank in Germany/EU has to offer APIs for 3rd parties to access the data, but they all do it in their own way so the open banking standards like the UK has are still better, but it's something.

Well 80K can get you pretty far in Berlin, as opposed to SF. Rent is probably cheaper than Warsaw too.

You have all my respect for embarking on a journey that difficult and seeing it through. However, I am not sure it really weeds out the competition. Solo-self-financing founder competition for sure, but if somebody else with some money back

Not an expert, but the multiplatform story for ionic is pretty nice. One codebase to run on iOS/Android and Web is easiest with ionic and I see a lot of small-mid size businesses using it. It's usually not about top-of-their class

Well there are still a lot of 737 Max around, I don't think they will all be written off? Maybe if passengers continue to avoid the plane. But this is also not the first time in history something like this happened, usually people forg
