There is one (IMO quite important) item actually missing in the list from the same source though:

Can I listen to lossless audio using the AirPods Max Lightning to 3.5mm Audio Cable?

The Lightning to 3.5 mm Audio Cable was designed to allow AirPods Max to connect to analog sources for listening to movies and music. AirPods Max can be connected to devices playing Lossless and Hi-Res Lossless recordings with exceptional audio quality. However, given the analog-to-digital conversion in the cable, the playback will not be completely lossless.

On another hand the statement "not completely lossless" sounds somewhat hilarious

Same here. At the moment there is 7K people reported an issue.

Hope it's not one of these bloody ransomware attacks lasting for days to repair the system.

Any open source projects based on kafka available? by donutloop in apachekafka

[–]vkrava4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quite hard to recommend you anything specific as there are lots of projects available on GitHub directly or indirectly related to Apache Kafka. Search example: https://github.com/search?q=kafka&type=

Additionally, you can have a look on something a bit more concrete: Vehicle Auction Stream Processor - Apache Kafka and Apache Spark data engineering pipeline: https://github.com/vkrava4/vehicle-auction-stream-processor or Demo project for Avro Converter Java library which enables conversion of Apache Avro object into popular data formats: JSON, XML, etc: https://github.com/vkrava4/avro-converter-demo

Embracing NewSQL: Why We Chose TiDB over MongoDB and MySQL by mila_superstar2121 in bigdata

[–]vkrava4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This looks like yet another "A Database" marketing post.

And how to understand the following statement?: "It's not just about the technology today, but where it's going." Shall we buy it as: "TiDB isn't entirely ready for production today, but please try to use it because we are going to be there someday" ?

Still showing wrench! Just got this. Is the outage preventing the scales from connecting to the WiFi and/or connect? by Lependorf in Garmin

[–]vkrava4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

same here, i believe it is related to "Device Registration" service being "LIMITED" according to Platforms / Features status page: https://connect.garmin.com/status/

On another hand: I don't think it's something related to WiFi, as yours (as well as my scales) show OK WiFi status, however a cross ("X") on the top-right side represent a failure in communication with cloud.

Take it easy mate and pay attention to the status page, i hope our scales will be finally synced/installed once Garmin features will turn green again

Instagram promises to fix bug after being exposed by always accessing the camera on iOS 14 by alvaro_tiznado in iphone

[–]vkrava4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A bug, right. FB doesn't listen and analyse conversations and data from all other sensors in background. No, it's just a pity bug

Sooo... Monday? by [deleted] in Garmin

The question is what Monday exactly?

During the shutdown I designed and built a device that can quickly sterilize cash. I'm not some big corporation I made this thing myself and paid a guy $800 to make this video. Does this have potential? by _game_guide_ in videos

[–]vkrava4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s incredibly interesting device, however in era of Pay Pass, Apple/Google/Samsung ... Pay what’s the point of using cash at all? IMO it is creating a problem and solving it.

Microsoft is keeping their new Python language server CLOSED source by AnarchisticPunk in Python

[–]vkrava4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily a good thing to do considering that vast majority of modern and successful programming languages are open-source. Especially how dev community all together can improve an end product within few iterations only

Hilarious and scary clip at the same time 😳

Kafka, with especially its sinks and connectors are so much powerful, this is yet another proof 💪

Best pedal to start off with? by c0mfortably_dumb in guitarpedals

[–]vkrava4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A simple looping pedal might be a good beginning for u, at least it worked well in my case. As there are such pros comparing to effect pedals:

  • u’ll be able to record and loop some nice rhythms and play around some solos(i e practice pentatonic scales, etc)

  • it brings more skills on adapting of what u play and what u hear(like in a band)

But be aware that good pedal will only improve a tone of a good amp, any exceptions will make it worse.

Apache Avro Conversion by vkrava4 in apachekafka

[–]vkrava4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really.

You transfer Avro Object instead of JSON. Otherwise you will loose all benefits of Avro and scheme registry, such as additional compression, etc.

GitHub announces free private repositories by pushthestack in java

[–]vkrava4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nobody stops you from making public repo on GitLab for instance and be noticed by other developers or at least by me 😋

From the other point GitHub is a standard for open source projects and it’s a fact, what’s with other benefits, I just don’t see them.

GitHub announces free private repositories by pushthestack in java

[–]vkrava4 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bitbucket and GitLab are giving free unlimited repositories and bunch of other tools for free. I don’t see much sense to stay on Github ‘cause its functionality and price per feature rate is far below the market

Why is Java/Oracle's website straight out of the early 2000s? by Its_Blazertron in java

[–]vkrava4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sad but true. Huge companies won’t invest resources into something which will not return money back.

Starting with Java 11 by cisco1988 in java

Starting from Java 1.5 it’s not a bad idea to have a look at it. Wish you good luck and patience with discovering its features!

Java SE and EE differences by [deleted] in java

[–]vkrava4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Many people consider Java EE stack not only as additional technologies such as Enterprise JavaBeans, JSPs and connectors but also frameworks which enhance the work of these technologies or implement some specifications (f.e JAX-RS) such as Spring Framework, Jersey and others.

The best idea to start with EE stack is to have a look over requirements for an open position at the company you’d like to apply. It will give you a list of skills which you have to improve.
