I too had WiFi trouble when bluetooth was enabled. The commands below fixed it for me (it might be that only one was effective but I've had no trouble since Feb 7). YMMV.

sudo ifconfig awdl0 down

defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser DisableAirDrop -boolean YES

Thanks for this comment. It made me see Apple in a new light.

Apple in my mind is now a consumer products business (has been for years I guess) not a computer business as I used to "feel".

Perhaps I'll be more open to other hardware for my next dev machine.

Could this have been solved by using "外人第一" as a suffix or instead of the romaji/katakana name?

I once tried to apply for a Japanese credit card online about 10 years ago (certainly things have changed with some banks sine then). IIRC the form would not accept romaji and my kana name was too long for the kanji input field.

This was painfully frustrating at the time but helped frame my approach to forms and DB specification when I got into web development (e.g. always using UTF8 in MySQL, full name as a single field in some applications, etc.).

Would it be an improvement if unanswered questions (or ones with no replies) were hidden from Google?

I find it pretty frustrating when searching a topic and SO's unanswered or closed questions are at top the of SERPs.

My weekend project from 2009 does this: http://www.crondroid.com/

One free daily cron, others paid on request (please use the contact form).

500 subscriber crons per day. We use it for in-house and client projects so have an interest in reliability ;-)

Accounts/dashboard/self-service will be added if/when needed (currently email does the trick).

All comments appreciated.
