I remember full well that music was much richer to me until maybe my mid 20s. It would be amazing to get that back somehow.

Thankfully, by now we put air purifiers and generally good HVAC solutions everywhere.

Interesting that social media's gamification “engagement” really seems to be influencing academia at this point. Also terrible news about LinkedIn apparently becoming an escape hatch? Has LinkedIn enhanced its user interface to boost e

I’d guess they have meanwhile unlocked “bigger war chest” to try see how far they can scale up their process? IIRC they actually said they don’t know if it will. Just like last time. Optimization will come later just like they are trying no

Yeah I was never above ~180-200GB used storage on my 256GB iPhone X. I splurged on that one as usual. Sorry ranting, not aimed at your comment at all just as I came back to this context: So I'm definitely a long standing and good custo

It’s probably fully deterministic in that case. It was bought summer 2015 and the SSD intermittently started to have write errors end of 2019 so 4.5 years. Were you running a “hackintosh” on that one? macOS is way more memory intensive tha

It’s not in my experience. “Normal users” are starting to run into this issue as I can anecdotally pass along (browsing, google suite, slight photoshop use, etc). I actually had lots of reservations before I “green lighted” those first gen

Ted Nelson’s “intertwingularity” isn’t far off from the data entry problem described. He argues for universal data access where duplication is obsolete. Imagine form data as a single, linkable object across the web, editable in one place, r

As someone who immediately deactivates most Tesla features whenever I rent one I’d like to understand what’s the allure of FSD in particular? Do you feel like you are able to read HN while on the road or are you keeping “check” on the drivi

I remember when someone at CCC (I think) coined the synonymous “Ortungswanze” <> smartphone - and it got way worse since that. https://translate.google.com/?sl=auto&tl=en&text=ortungswanz...

Reddit is an especially appalling platform and the only thing more appalling than that is their doubling down on “app vs web” all the while having terrible UX and performance as you say. Something something about Conway’s Law I’m guessing :

How does software do this usually? :) I guess it’s a combination of heavy multitasking / using it for work + private plus - again - constant-drum of increasingly bloaty websites and applications following whatever the current ceiling i

OOM kills are basically the sole reason for me to upgrade iPhones. Nothing more annoying than force-reloaded/lost state in/between apps while on-the-go and under tight time constraints. Also somewhat true: new lenses are amazing b

Agreed, especially the increasing greediness with regards to RAM and corresponding upselling is unfortunately real at this point. I just upgraded to the iPhone 15 Pro Max because of the 8GB RAM and I will probably need to do so for my two M

As a user of many Apple Silicon generations in different / mostly top configurations by now I’m obviously a big fan. One thing that I have “observed” though (with no data to back it up): it seems to me as if under heavy load / res

Zero-rating = skewing whole internet playing field, not just stifling small creators; subtly - or not so subtly - influences user behaviour, leading to a constrained experience. Users might feel financially pressured to use certain services

The metered pricing model doesn’t align with reality of data costs for ISPs which are often negligible (thanks to technological advances and peering agreements especially). This makes the metered model more of a revenue strategy than a nece

by musha68k 3y ago
It’s true that smaller ISPs have their challenges, but the cost for both interplant and extraplant connections has been generally decreasing. Economies of scale and peering agreements can mitigate many of these costs.

ISPs face costs for peak usage / level of “playing with the numbers” yes, but economies of scale and exchange agreements reduce these costs significantly. Bandwidth caps not only have a weak financial justification but also run counter

by musha68k 3y ago
Peering agreements at internet exchanges make additional bandwidth very cheap to provide and infra costs are spread over years and many users, further reducing ongoing costs.. Bandwidth caps not only have a weak fiscal basis but also clash

AFAIR was only the case if nap was longer than ~20 min? I don't remember if this was a consistent thing, I doubt it though as this stuff is inherently individual. Experimentation is the only way with sleep optimization..

It's not necessarily 0 or 1 is it? E.g. a "short espresso" in the early morning hours at least from my sleep tracking / particular (heavy) physiology doesn't make a difference vs when I'm off of caffeine (on we
