This seems to be a situation where the stated problem (protect children) is different to the actual problem (surveillance). Your proposal doesn't solve the actual problem.

Thanks a lot for investigating this further. I'll write a cleaner blog post to alert other potential victims. From the package downloads they're hacking around 200 people per week, just with `json-mappings`. I've definitely w

Some time ago I was looking for a similar solution –offline first and easy sync– and was happy to find https://jazz.tools/ . There are many things in common between these two projects. Just mentioning in case you want to che

How old was alphabet in 2024? And anthropic? How much was google revenue in 2003? It was 1.5 billions (2.6 in today's USD) Not saying the price is justified, but the comparison is not very fair.

It's a shame that modern browsers don't optimize SVG to be processed in the GPU. It has plenty of potential, not only feTurbulence, but many other effects as well. And being able to use SVG masks on standard HTML elements would al

My wife recently got her O1 visa approved and I'll be getting an O3 as dependent. I currently have an app that I'm actively developing that generates $50-$100 per month. I might be able to stop development, but at the very least w

So the only argument is that the token window is a disadvantage for languages that use more tokens for an equivalent program. But token windows are only getting bigger, and there's also no need to fit the entire codebase in a single pr

Was going to mention this site. One nice thing it has that could be useful for this app is to have the ability to save a preset and load it in the future. I found it quite useful in mynoise.net

From my research to write the post, it looks like: - the HFP standard was developed mainly for taking calls in a car. It seems like taking calls is still the main use case up to the latest version 1.9, - macOS switches to HFP whenever the

I'm always surprised with the very low standard for "nice" people have, so I'll vote for that one, even if both possibilities are correct

I have the pixel buds A-series, and using my pixel 7a I can feel the quality going down when on a call. It might be just the latest buds, or my pixel 7a not supporting the codec, or the HFP not being set to use it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I actually didn't know about Opus, but having read a bit about it, how aren't we using that codec for all things audio? It's open source, has good platform support, quality seems to similar to AAC, it could be used for HPF. W

I tried this as well and didn't work for me. Maybe it works for other people? When I connect my headphones and switch to the microphone, the same crappy sound comes up. I had tried before with the checkbox in the bluetooth explorer to

I'm using mSBC, but the quality difference compared with AAC when not using the microphone is wild.

Nice! I didn't know about this. I'll update the post with ToothFairy. Thanks for sharing :)

Ouch. I'm sorry about this. I've had users on Sonoma report this. It seems they made it harder to make Gatekeeper happy. I'll reach out to your email directly to figure out how to fix it. Again, sorry about that.

This made me think about the mic on my $300+ headphones. It's probably even a good mic. However, because they will only be used via bluetooth, it will most definitely be used under a HFP mode, which means that a probably decent audio s

by dgrcode 3y ago
Yep that's another one that has improved significantly over the years. I charge my headphones once per month, maybe twice. I'd gladly charge them once per week if that means I get nice audio in and outside calls.

This is the exact use case I have, and the frustration of not being able to select what I want made me create the app. I'm really surprised this functionality doesn't come with the Mac, but I couldn't find a workaround that d

Yes, with the A2DP profile (high quality music) things work good enough for me not to notice. Maybe you could hear some differences on a side to side comparison, but it's good enough. The real problem comes with the HFP profile. Lack o

I agree improved codecs is one of the solutions. I think other solutions could appear if Bluetooth wasn't restricted to a 3Mbps bandwidth, which seems to me –I have no information on this– it's a very outdated constraint. I mean,

To be honest I haven't used SoundSource myself, but one of the early users of the app I made talked me about it. He mentioned he could select the input/output devices and Mac wouldn't change them when connecting a bluetooth d

100% From what I've read in the last few days researching to write the post, it feels like Bluetooth was designed under some constraints 20 years ago, and it keeps using the same constraints today. Also, the companies listed in the HFP
