I’ve had multiple instances of my Mac unlocking while I was more than 5-6 meters away. At some point I decided not to trust the time of flight calculation and disable it.
I assume, perhaps incorrectly, that everyone has the same catalog (at least for my fairly boring taste in music) and actively choose Spotify’s personalization over Apple Music’s tighter integration with my phone, car, etc. Just a single data point though.
Anecdotally, I love the personalized station Apple Music generates for me. I have pretty eclectic, cross-genre taste and the quality of the personalized station - the mix of stuff I already love and the new stuff that I don't know yet but that I end up loving - is by far the stickiest part of the service for me. It also seems to be improving over time? I know, anecdotal, but that has been my experience..
"No" seems to suggest that you're disagreeing with your parent's post, but your parent is saying why they chose it, not why you did:

And I am saying why I chose it. You don't need to read too much into the "no", nor have to find some perfect formal consistency in a quick response. It's just "no" as in, "no, that's not my case".
"The bar is set extremely high for universities like Caltech, which are selective, close to prosperous cities and teach mainly lucrative subjects. If their students didn’t go on to extremely high-paying careers, the college would probably be doing something gravely wrong."
Isn't that an inherit flaw in the system? It is also based on the assumption that everyone prioritizes money over everything else. If I worked in the Yale marketing department I could easily spin this as a being caused by the high character of Yale graduates who are more willing to dedicate their life to lower paying but higher impact jobs like academics or public service while those greedy kids from Harvard only ever chase money.
Every other publication's college rankings prioritize "everything else" over money. The Economist just came up with a different ranking based on expected value.
It's not a problem that their ranking is based on optimizing for income, since they state upfront what they are ranking them on. However, it could be a problem that not all of the students included in the data are optimizing for that. A school that was very good at helping students increase their potential income, but that attracted mostly students who aren't interested in maximizing income would be ranked low, but it should receive a high rank.
I dunno, how about pursuing careers as scientists rather than as hacks for the finance industry? Is that "gravely wrong"?
And as far as being close to a prosperous city -- that is because Caltech is near the world hub of the entertainment industry. A Caltech education is mostly irrelevant to finding employment there.
