ForFreedom··on iTunes will never work well
Just realized that... thanks

also if you could get the app to move all music from iTunes on the iPhone to TinyPlayer it would be great.

@tomasandrle How do I add music?

When I toggle "ENABLE UPLOADS", "no network available" error pops out

ForFreedom··on iTunes will never work well
One of the features I hate in iTunes is adding music to the library. When adding songs it should create a shortcut from the music folder that is being added from rather than creating a copy of the songs in its folder. When creating a copy into the iTunes folder the storage space on the macbook is lowered.

ForFreedom··on This Is What Python Beginners Have to Deal With
The trouble I had installing numpy, scipy and theano on python was over 3 days and only numpy & theano works.

3 days to go over the internet find out what the error... then trial and error.

Yes its difficult. And as the author says,"people get down voted"

I never have the tangled wire issue. 1. You can either wrap it around in the box it came in or 2. wound it in a circle and it stays as is.(That is how I put in in my laptop bag)

1. Removing the headphones is not what people are complaining but unable to charge the phone and use wired headphones is one thing people are complaining about.

2. USD 160 for a AirPod! thats too much and the design really is not up to the mark

ForFreedom··on Neural network spotted deep inside Samsung's Galaxy S7 silicon brain
iPhone excel because the OS and HW is designed by one company unlike Samsung where the HW and OS are from different companies, add to android Samsung bloatware.

The iOS works well with the iPhone simply because it is fine tuned for the product. On the androids side the OS is tuned to add bloatware of the respective HW manufactures. To add the so called speed the HW manufactures put in more RAM.

ForFreedom··on Why There Are So Many Ties in Swimming
Technically a lane cant be shorter in a swimming pool.
ForFreedom··on Why There Are So Many Ties in Swimming
Will someone explain the below in simple terms?

"In a 50 meter Olympic pool, at the current men’s world record 50m pace, a thousandth-of-a-second constitutes 2.39 millimeters of travel. FINA pool dimension regulations allow a tolerance of 3 centimeters in each lane, more than ten times that amount. Could you time swimmers to a thousandth-of-a-second? Sure, but you couldn’t guarantee the winning swimmer didn’t have a thousandth-of-a-second-shorter course to swim."

ForFreedom··on Xiaomi’s first laptop is a Macbook Air rival
I dont understand why everyone is comparing their products to the Mac/iPhone and then they say "cheap" as $xxx.

You cant compare a KIA to Bugatti and say cheap as $xxx.

The point is create a product people speak about and has a value

Down vote was regrettably someone slipping on the payment and blaming me.

A save would be good and would stay within the login of news.ycombinator.com
