Another place where auto can be useful is to handle cases where the function signature changes without making changes at the calling site. An explicitly typed var would need changing or worse, can work with some potential hidden bugs due to implicit type conversion.

I don't use my watch for running (using a 7 year old Fitbit versa). However, I do keep it on the entire day unless it is charging. I was curious what the weight of the Time 2 was going to be (I don't see it in the specs). I just wanted to compare the weight of it to my existing device. Thanks!

Anecdata here but I bought a thinkpad T14 in 2022. My colleague bought the same at the same time. We both have identical machines except for me opting for an intel processor and him picking an AMD. My laptop has heating issues and terrible battery life. His lasts an entire day and no heating issues. Forums research shows others in the same timeframe are facing the same issue as me so it is entirely Intel related.

Isn't some of it have to do with it being a self selecting sample? If you come to America to study, you were a good student in your resident country leading to more chances of success than the average local citizen. Their children might be smarter on average. Alternatively if you are coming fleeing persecutions you are enterprising enough to set up something for your children. That hard work inculcates a sort of work ethic in such children which in turn sets them up for success. Speaking from experience as an immigrant myself.

I am not a youtuber or the media. I was seriously thinking about buying a model y late last year so borrowed a model 3 and a y from friends to test it out. I found it distracting TBH.

Not to mention the suspension issues (google "tesla whompy wheels"). After reading that junked the idea of buying it.

Nexus hardware (LG made) was crap. Both mine and my wife's phones bootlooped at 12-14 months of purchase. Never had such issues with any of the other smartphones we have owned.
