- These domains sound weird (for average Joe)
- Even if they office 5GB for they average Joe will try
- BTW, I bet they cannot do proper customer service if they have a 10th of the google's customers
- We at a German scientific institution got email services from a Berlin based (privacy first, eco-friendly) provider (starting with letter M-). We had significant issues with SSO, email-sync (in outlook), password resets were painful (as these were emailed to the admins in plain-text - seemingly someone manually reset it at the provider), No 2FA, calendar-sync worked awful in iPhones.
only those android users using usb-c, not those with the various preceding usb's.
You are correct, it's only ever lightning accessory that becomes junk, despite lightning preceding usb-c, and having more physically robust construction.
I switched from Android to to iPhone SE- mostly as a matter of longevity and relatively cheap repair prices.
Lighting is not better, it slides out more easily, it’s connections are less consistent (if you’re using a headphone adapter you will get disconnects), and it just doesn’t feel as good.
Physically Lightning is better - way more robust and resistant to potential damage. There's literally no way you damage connector on normal daily usage.
I don’t damage my ports I don’t have a frame of reference for them not being robust.
I do know that I can’t really use headphones with my iPhone because the experience blows because they disconnect.
I do know that often my phone isn’t charged because the connection from the charger wasn’t good.
C type is a better experience and the only time I’ve had a defective or damaged C port was on a sub $100 BLU phone
This is misinformation, the USB-C connector design is more robust than the lightning port. The reason there's a "tab" in the middle of the phone connector is so that the cable can grasp onto it with spring-loaded contact areas. In the lightning connector the spring-loaded pins are in the phone instead of in the cable, these spring loaded things are what breaks in the connector (if it isn't just full of lint which you can get out). The reason why it appears the lightning connector is better is because Apple manufacturers high-quality devices.
Lightning is designed to wear out the contact, USB-C is designed to wear out the cable.
Those android users who are using usb-c are definitely most of them. I haven't seen an Android phone on the market in years that isn't USB-C. And those few who are left are the outliers, politicians have to focus on the masses. It's not like there aren't adapters in those cases anyways.
Only accessories got access to those speeds, not charging cables (because just like USB-C, it would be a nightmare of telling fast and slow cables apart).
Rather than move 5 gpbs data rate support from iPad Pro to other devices like the iPhone, they decided to replace lightning with USB-C on the iPad Pro.
Lets be honest. Searching for https://hn.algolia.com/?q=burnout in hn shows so many people suffering from burnouts working in industry.
My SO is a research software engineer.
1. As you say, she doesn't build ad-ware and do take pride...
2. relaxed and convenient job timings
3. In EU - close to 31 days paid + usually Professors are very generous about going home early etc...
4. Pension, unions, unlimited contracts
5. No one gives a shit when github/gitlab/heroku loses credentials on a Easter weekend. (We were in roadtrip) - chill life.
Obviously "research" and "industry" are not monolithic entities. It's possible to have a relaxing and fulfilling and balanced work environment in industry too.
