My build pipelines have been failing the last 7 hours because of this.. Amazing that it's still green on the status page. Twitter reports a lot of affected users as well.
For me it's not about the playback. It's about curated playlist, suggestion and discovery.
And especially Spotify does this extremely well.

Ha! This explains why I always get "cookieandkate.com" suggested when I want to visit another site that starts with "cookie". I was extremely frustrated that it suggested that site with higher priotity than the one I actually visit mostly every day. And I had never myself gone to that site.
Now I know why...

Did you use a browser to get that command? And did you type it by hand, or copy pasting it?

The OP posted the same link 9 days ago.. And it's not really noteworthy, as there is nothing secret about secret region partitions.

4) Maybe they are doing remuxing when multiple clients are on the same chat? Would definitely lower bandwidth.

Re:Ask HN: Is it normal to fall out of love with coding?
on Wednesday January 09, 2019 @07:21AM (#18864184)
I felt the same way after CS, and then working a year as software engineer. And I think it's because of two reasons:
1) I never loved coding (even though I thought so). I loved the process of finding solutions for problems, and solve them. But coding was not the deciding factor in this. The research, investigate what should be done, speaking with customers etc. _This_ I loved. But I did not love coding. All those problems, debugging of code that does not work etc. I'll compare it to an architect drawing the buildings, making sure that they live up to the requirements ("solutioning"). But the architect is not building the building (coding).
2) What I loved about coding in those 10-15 years I was a hobby-programmer before CS, I was working on small, fun projects. They were quick to get working, and then I was quickly moving to the next thing. And I think that is a problem when working as a professional. You get sucked into large projects that (seemingly) never ends. And that's not the spirit you had in the beginning.
Have you tried going to hackathons? I can really recommend it! Having a weekend where you hack with other hackers and do some coding is a really nice way of working, and can get you the spirit back!

You can build and set up a Hackintosh in a day og you just follow Tonymacx86’s guide. It has a list og builds with working components. Just buy them, set it up, install Mac OS and it just works.

Re:Interview: Apple’s Craig Federighi about Face ID
on Saturday September 16, 2017 @03:15AM (#15263370)
The thing I'm really looking forward to with Face ID is when apps are using it. Fine for unlocking the phone, but think about it.
Right now, if you access your bank, Dropbox, 1Password etc. you open the app, wait for the Touch ID dialog to appear, then move your finger from the screen (where it was) and to the Touch ID to authorize.
With Face ID; just open the app, and you're authorized. This is a HUGE thing in regards of usability.
I love it.
