Much as I have read research and heard stories of the knock-on health improvement effects of GLP-1s... Expect a lot of that economic value to be captured by pharmaceutical companies charging for them. And insurance companies charging higher premiums, because they're paying for everyone to be on them.
Two unconventional things I do to improve my iPhone's battery health (which follow this article's findings):
1) Don't use a case - Otherwise, you are literally wrapping your phone in a rubber insulator 24/7, increasing its overall temperature.
2) Don't charge at night - Turn off your phone at night. Instead, charge it during the day when you're at your desk. This reduces the number of cycles over years (because your phone is continually draining/recharging all night even when you aren't using it)
iOS will not fully charge your battery during the night - it will top off the battery just before you usually take it off the charger in the morning (it learns your usual schedule + it probably also makes sure the battery is ready based on your alarm settings).
This feature doesn’t help. The problem is that the phone is still using energy during the night, draining the battery by, for example 8-10%. Over several nights, this adds up to 1 cycle.
The fact that the OS waits to top up the battery just hides how much energy it used on background activity and notifications during the night.
Agreed, recent tech layoffs are a symptom of a bigger problem in corporate America: a “restructuring industrial complex” where blending up teams appears accretive when it’s literally counterproductive.
First priority of a business is to transform human work into something a customer needs. How does perpetual strategic and human churn accomplish this? The uncertainties of churn actually makes it super hard for employees to do a job. How about just DOING WORK to grow a business? Be decisive, focus teams on a goal and keep doing what customers want.
Seconding this. There is also a huge SMB and commercial business that supports many agencies and production companies. This could replace a lot of that work.
There are most definitely performances that you will enjoy less if you learn how it works. You're trading off "knowing" for being suspended in awe or mystery.
Nah, peak HN would be someone writing a shitty scraper in Rust to do the same thing without taking the time to realize there’s an algolia api available.
I would argue "peak HN" would be shitting on a side project with no practical purpose that was obviously done for learning/fun because they did something somebody else already did and didn't have a perfectly unique idea.
