There's rarely a continuous 30min free time slot with a one-year-old running around.

Where I live Tesla has quite high insurance rates. Mostly because it’s very expensive to repair but also because Tesla drivers tend to speed and cause more accidents than other drivers.

Probably correct but not sure Russia’s rule applies here? SAS is Swedish/Danish and Norwegian is, well, Norwegian.

Teenagers now have a third screen (TV + phone for friends + tablet for watching a streamer)

Sometimes it’s reversed. Spotify has less than 50% of the artists and albums I have on CDs and I have been tempted to buy missing songs on vinyl. Spotify’s playlists also rot, roughly 1% of songs disappear per year.

It's interesting how much art direction there is involved in a relatively simple video (train driving from A to B), and for example rmoriz's cycle videos. What is the field of view, how high is the camera? How is sound recorded? Do you cut when the train is stopped on station (or bike in traffic lights), do you fast forward or just show the stop in real time?

As a viewer I'd want there to be zero cuts: If your video puts me on a train I want to experience the whole train journey. Some train videos record audio from the train cars, maybe to avoid recording radio traffic in the engine but this also makes the experience somehow worse.

Exactly this. I’m also afraid that it sets a flag somewhere that “this person has been banned at some point” which will affect something down the line.

Do you use the official Twitter clients? Because they seem to push different, “popular” content pretty hard. Many people joked that ‘Super follow’ should have been replaced by ‘Super block’

I enjoyed HI but the community on Reddit always seemed super weird to me. People just competing over who’s most in on the joke and endless posts “Brady would love this...” I can imagine it being tiresome to try to “manage” that. Other podcast communities don’t seem to suffer from same kind of super fans as much.

I feel like many if not all podcasters are my “friends” who I chat with, only I don’t need to speak. I don’t see why they should convey their ideas any faster. I enjoy whatever time we spend together and it’s usually enough to fill the time on my commute or washing the dishes.

Is there a target audience for Facebook hardware products? I guess HN crowd isn't but I'd want to know what part of the population could be. Curious.

Same problem with QC15 here, to the point that I can’t use them anymore. I had to use them in our open office to get anything done but the ringing in my ears got pretty bad. Working from home and not listening to music has helped a bit.

I'm in the market for a VR headset and Oculus tech seems to be the best right now but because of this I'll be waiting for whatever upgrades other companies release next year.

Whoops I thought this was a digital ovulation test. They have multiple strips and you test one each day.

I didn't find it mentioned here or in the Twitter thread, but the digital test also keeps track of previous results and alerts you when the scores are ramping up. Of course you could do this manually by keeping all the strips and comparing them but the device makes it a bit easier.

I meant iPad running a version of macOS

I don't mean as a product to sell to the masses but something that could be used to develop / test ARM apps before the new shiny laptop arrives sometime in 2021. Not the most ergonomic way to develop apps but maybe possible?

Could the new iPad Pro works as a development machine?

Maybe they meant the 16" laptop which has 1mm of travel.

A cloud you can control yourself.

I've suggested this to an insurance company. Unfortunately keeping a list of dangerous drivers (or dangerous license plates) is a bit illegal re: GDPR and using it for pricing mandatory traffic insurance is also not doable. Pricing is only allowed to use factors that can be demonstrated to correlate with the risk the company sees in actual claims.

But one can dream :) A good thought technology for reducing anger towards reckless drivers is to assume the crazy BMW driver just had a bad case of diarrhea and needed to get to a bathroom very fast.

I created a short questionnaire with TypeForm that asks some of these questions and linked it to my LinkedIn profile. Now any recruiter either answers ten or so qualifying questions or skips the questionnaire and goes straight to trash for not even reading my profile.

Vinyl's growth is somewhat limited by the world's pressing capacity. Old pressing machines are being brought back online where possible: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2017/dec/10/record-demand-... [2017].

I recently started seeing songs that had 9 famous artists in the artist field, some of which were artists I follow so the song appeared in my recommended playlists.

I had a dock and replaced it with wireless charger as soon as they were available. The ease of just placing your phone on a surface vs. lining up your phone with the dock is well worth it.

Looking at the RTINGS.com "Angular Resolution" chart, at 6 feet viewing distance you'd need to have a 100" TV to be able to see the difference: https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/by-size/size-to-distance-r...

It’s not free or simple if the sun doesn’t shine where you live.

Install an ad blocker that supports hiding page elements. I added these to 1Blocker on iOS.

The archiving delay kills me. I used to archive an email and close the window but not anymore. One would think it’s a single request to the back-end and the UI could be updated after that.

I asked them about it and they told me the feed is sorted based on what they think is most interesting. They have a survey about it at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NewStravaFeed
