I don't need to know if message was read so i disable it for my own privacy.

Besides, I think they're pointless in my case. I usually read the message in the notification and reply or dismiss it without opening the app, and the apps usually don't record these interactions as "read".

I used one of those to edit all my comments and then delete them. Then i requested my data under GDPR and all original comments are there.

I'd rather use snake_case for file names in Linux that way you don't have to press shift until the end of the first word, and byt that time you probably have enough characters for tab completion.

Initially i bought nexus/pixel phones for clean android experience and no bloat.

Staying with pixel mainly for camera quality and free storage on Google Photos.

Its not ideal, but I'm used to it. They never try to do something too gimmicky and it feels like phone made by Google will work best with the os made by google so my experience will be most consistent, but i haven't tried other phones in a while.

Haha, haven't heart about that. Sounds ridiculous!

It was a snarky comment and I replied in kind. Criticism is fine but I like Sync and don't go around putting down other apps. I just use the one I like and support the developer.

Pandas is more efficient than Python at operating on large datasets. Can you suggest alternarives?

Makes sense if you want to give the user the ability to import data from csv (see django import export package). Beyond importing data from user or another service i dont see other uses, but they do exist.

Ebooks. Kindle has a nice display showing how much is left in the chapter. It has a warm light back light, and i can take multiple books with me on a trip (i have some unfinished books).

I can put down the kindle without losing the page, or having to bookmark it. And i can sideload the books for free.

Physical books are tempting too as i can get them free at a library and very cheap second hand, but i know i would still prefer to read it on kindle where i can choose the font size I like.

Boys from Biloxi by John Grisham.

I found the first part (the boys) very boring, and unnecessarily detailed. I could have skipped it without consequence. But the rest of the book was pretty good and enjoyable.
