Yeah, jira is too customizable. I mean I wouldn’t give any of it up, but the one time someone let me have the reins, I mostly simplified. Removed workflows, removed customizations.
There needs to be better ways of defining standard projects and sticking to them. Currently everyone wants their little tweak and you can’t even pick out what’s consistent and what’s not until you run into problems
OP is talking 6 AH batteries. If that’s all SiC can do, why would Apple use it in place of current 18AH batteries?
Apple was never leading edge - their goal is to incorporate when it works well
But you’re both cherry picking and wrong. There’s huge lists of features on every new phone, you’re picking two and deciding that means no innovation. Take a look at the dozens of other features on models from each manufacturer.
SiC batteries that offer 6-8k mAh
You’re complaining about battery chemistry that you believe is innovation, yet current batteries are much larger. Why switch if the technology is not as good yet?
As an American I’m still not convinced.
Apple successfully sold themselves as a better choice, the “in”thing - to adults. Most adults I know have iPhones and the ones who don’t seem self-conscious about it. It might have partly to do with Android phones originally sold as the budget alternative. We’re the shallow ones.
Kids can take their cues from adults: they see iPhones as the “better”, more desired choice. But also take it to the next level, with teasing and bullying.
I find it hard to believe anyone cares about the color of text bubbles, especially since kids don’t use iMessage, despite all the media making that claim. It’s just an excuse, but the social stigma is real
The specific request is kind of interesting - when I was a kid, everyone had to wear Nikes or get teased. However for my kids, Nikes were always out.
Fads always come in cycles
Competency implies having some qualification other than loyalty, listening to subject matter experts, considering consequences. The result of competency could easily be just a matter of degree and awareness.
For example, tariffs can be a powerful tool for addressing specific trade inequities or supporting local production, especially in conjunction with other tools. Many US administrations have successfully used them. Only an incompetent buffoon would just throw them down everywhere all at once as the only tool, or as a bullying tactic.
And some turnip brain has thrown down a random slalom course of giant boulders of tariffs, terrorizing immigrant labor, and a full clown car of national “leadership” whose only qualification is personal loyalty
When someone says you stand like you have a stick up your ass, they mean the other way. It should help keep you vertical
But the question is deaths by car and you don’t need to entirely get rid of cars to make a huge difference.
Traffic calming really can work. I’m not talking about speed bumps, but things like curb bumps to narrow the road at intersection while increasing pedestrian visibility, traffic islands, roundabouts. Even repainting lines can make a difference. My town’s master plan is driven by accident stats, so every road rework is a noticeable improvement
A couple years ago my town repainted a two lane road into one lane plus turn lanes. Now traffic is slower and calmer yet you get through that area more quickly. Most importantly it’s no longer one of the most dangerous roads in town
Most recently they built a median. This was a dangerous intersection because it always backed up so impatient people would blast straight through in the turn lanes, causing accidents. Now they can’t
And yes, because of Florida Man, my town built medians at every railroad crossing so idiots can’t go around the gates. We never had that problem, but idiocy is contagious.
Every city and town can make a difference. Now. Relatively cheaply. Just by collecting accident data and prioritizing by that. Just by making small changes a little at a time
Best way to recover from a spin is push the yoke to straight down and rudder opposite the spin.
Not that it helps the victims but maybe we need a bunch of falsely abused and detained reporters able to afford significant lawsuits.
I like to think I’d stand up and do it, but I’m white and in a state where we don’t often have such conflict.
I mean we do, you can’t avoid it with the current administration. However it’s just not as often. Actually a couple of weeks ago one of my city councillors was roughly detained for videoing a gang of masked thugs depriving people of their rights. However while I don’t think it’s as simple as racism, he is Hispanic and that clearly makes a difference
What’s your goal in using fake info? If it’s general privacy, it’s easy enough to register where your info is private to the registrar
Maybe you’re confusing being aware with specific choices of how to respond. Being aware is always good, but you can always argue with what people choose to do with that knowledge.
Maybe I’ll have to try that. Apricot has always been a bbq ingredient and I don’t think I’ve ever had it directly
But most grocery store marmalade is overly sweet and flavorless. Trader Joe’s marmalade is so much better that I’ll go there even if that’s all I’m getting.
Speaking of which I need more and I haven’t been to Trader Joe’s in too long
Natural peanut butter with actual maple syrup, on sourdough
Personally I think the bidet is the problem - you aren’t going through tp quickly enough. It has more time to fall apart.
All I got is try other brands and clean more often.
While you say your partner is unwilling to switch, there are still multiple ultra soft brands. For example I’ve switched from Charmin Ultrasoft to Kirkland (Costco). It seems just as soft, but it has less dust, its individual sheets are bigger, and it’s cheaper
Are you open to moving?
My niece jumped on a video program in high school and is going to college for film. In both cases, industry connections were a huge part of the program, and she has been able to find a good amount of part time work to help offset the costs of college. She even has IMDb.com profile and credits.
From what little I know about the industry, this seems like one of those careers where connections are critical. Of course the problem is you’ll find only a small number of schools and locations with those connections.
I know moving is not realistic for most people so I’ll second the other recommendations about seeing what your school can do for you.
If you want to read it yourself, there’s an entire section. Table of contents ….

Recently dug one up. My older kid is interested in retro tech, so he has the boom box, a record player and a cassette player. He’s started buying vinyl and cassettes, and discovered my old crate of CDs in the basement
