Yes, I think for your use case they work fine. I also read a review from a father that watches his kids while listening to things on the OpenFit. However, outside with noise, I find them unusable.

The difference is that the OpenFit are not bone conducting, they have speakers which sit over the entry of your ear. And I think that's the reason why they are not really working for me. Maybe I should give the bone conducting ones a t

I mean that at one point the surrounding sounds are louder than the music. Of course I could turn the music up, but at one point it's just too loud. They are just speakers on top of the entry of your ear. So the music competes with the

I was expecting that the surrounding sounds blend in with the music instead of drowning it out. Like you can hear music coming out of a speaker while a car passes.

Shokz OpenFit ear phones. I bought them to be able to go running or cycling while listening to music and hear my surroundings. However it doesn't really work, because as soon as there is a little bit of noise around I can't hear t

I wish they would make a 5a version that is smaller and has lower specs and is therefore cheaper. I really like the idea of getting updates until 2031 and being able to just replace the battery.

It states IP55 in the specification, so don't take it for a dive.

Yes, I reduced from full time 40 hours to 32 hours. Which results in a 4 day workweek. I did this when becoming a freelancer. I'm in Europe and salaries here are not that crazy high as in the US, so getting a 20% pay cut might even hur

I heard an interesting podcast where they interviewed a German pilot. And he said that in order to get promoted(getting to fly a bigger plane, in his case) the only factor that counts is the years of experience. There is nothing a pilot can

Depends what you want. If you want to go into Android development, then I would say that Kotlin is the go to language. Being able to read and write Java is also beneficial imo, since some projects also have old code in Java. However all the

It's true, there are electric bikes that are fast. However I never feel unsafe because of them. For me the bigger annoyance are the scooters which are also allowed on the bicycle lane (in my City, afaik not Amsterdam). Those are mostly

Yes, when you once lived in a city in The Netherlands you never want to go back into any other country, where are cars are used as main transportation inside cities. Everybody cycles here and it feels very safe to do it, however the infrast

I like the idea itself. However I would not use such kind of service since I'm always assuming that when I'm dead those services aren't there anymore.
