My Garmin syncs its data to Apple Health. I don't see why Pebble wouldn't be able to do it. My understanding of the post is that it mostly refers to internal iOS APIs that are not available to third parties (e.g. actionable notifications).
I have the Q11 too (and I fully agree with your appreciation of it), but I'd like to say that I never had this issue with the keyboard. I _do_ have it connected to the laptop (tested both on a M2 macbook air and a M4 Pro macbook pro) through a `ThinkPad Thunderbolt 3 Dock Gen 2` -- not sure if that may be what's avoiding your problem.
Always a nice chance to recommend http://mynoise.net (and https://mynoise.pro/)
fyi I tried on my Android phone with Firefox and I don't see the problem you mention. Perhaps some additional display specs may be useful? My screen is 6.67" with 1080x2400px (20:9, 395ppi).
Noticed github.com wasn't loading correctly on my browser. First I suspected my adblocker, then Firefox, and after it didn't work on Chrome, I knew there was something wrong. Found on reddit [0] that Github and Cyble URLS somehow got added to the URLHaus malware database, which sources lots of malware blockers... and that's why nothing works :).

I'm glad I'm not the only one to have thought that...
I was just joking about people eating bats, which kind-of made the news a few years ago...
If only humans learnt to do the same...
Well, another one of the "sins of memory" (categorised along the sins of <i>comission</i>, instead of <i>omission</i>) is <i>bias</i>, which means modifying the actual transpired event with our beliefs and previous knowledge, either at encoding or during retrieval.
So, if at retrieval time, your beliefs (e.g. now you support legalisation of marijuana) and knowledge are different than what they were during the memory encoding (e.g. you didn't support legalisation of marijuana), because you see yourself as "consistent" you may actually remember the memory tinted with your actual beliefs (e.g. you were a supporter all along).
Furthermore, as we lose the complete experience details from our episodic memories, we start filling the gaps with our current knowledge and beliefs, too, to achieve some consistency of the event...
Quite interesting, but obviously, lots of variables and different things come into play in this topic.
The explanation can't be that neat.
It's not an absolute, I was telling OP that, in fact, there was some research on what he mentioned. Basically, that memory is linguistic-context dependent, but as a subset of cognitive-context dependent (as well as physiological-, affective-, and several types of context). This doesn't mean that memories are ONLY linked to language, they have lots of different associations, things that work as a cue of the memory, this (language) is only one of them.
You can have a stroke and lose language and still retain and form memories.
What does it mean to "lose language"? Are you unable to speak, to express yourself, to comprehend others, all together? What memories do you retain and form? Are you talking about semantic memories, or episodic memories? How do you measure that those memories are retained and formed, if you cannot test the subject due to the impossibility of communication?
It's a lot more difficult than absolutist statements.
Edit: typo (thinks->things)
I dont remember the thread but the context I think was regarding reading memories digitally somehow.
Funnily enough, apparently the language in the different parts of memory process (i.e. encoding+storage+retrieval) stems exactly from "digital computer memory" :), psychologists in the 40s/50s looked at the development of computers and started making analogies with the brain.
I wonder if revisiting memories often enough will reencode them before they are lost?
Well, you have Ebbinghaus' forgetting curve, which shows how (in this case, semantic) memory decays with time but, with rehearsal, the memory trace (i.e. the neural substrate) gets "stronger" ("neurons that wire together fire together") and lasts longer in memory.
There are multiple types of "forgetting" (Schacter's "The Seven Sins of Memory"), what we usually mean by it is the "transience sin", i.e. forgetting because of elapsed time. There are several views why it happens, mainly storage failure, i.e. that memory trace getting weaker, or retrieval failure, being unable to get the right "memory cue" to retrieve that memory.
So, probably, if you start associating one particular [0] cue with the memory, and training that over time, yes, it should be possible to not-lose the memory (I don't think it will help with Alzheimer's, though).
The funny thing is that every time you retrieve a memory from long-term storage, it gets re-encoded before it goes back to storage so, basically, every time you remember you are modifying the memory a bit with your current biases (another sin!), thus also forgetting :).
[0] And choosing the best cue is already a hard topic, as it should be different enough as to not trigger many different memories ("cue overload principle" from Surprenant and Neath's "principles of memory"), and the memory should be not so different enough that you may get the risk of other singular memories interfering with it.
To me, the last section of the article states exactly what happened after the hysteria.
I worked on this for a while, at a time and in a market where most of our recipients had @hotmail addresses. I discovered that mass email sending was akin to a "pay-to-win" game.
We had/opted to acquire the services of a company "expert in email deliverability" (Return Path), who somehow provided detailed metrics of how our IPs were scored by MSFT. I always wondered why MSFT didn't provide those scores by themselves, and how a 3rd. party could have access to them.
Re. your comment... slow ramp-up is the only way, with constant monitoring of deliverability and consequent adjusting of recipients (i.e. removing those who do not open or hard-bounce). I did also wonder if paying that company perhaps gave us a headstart when adding new IPs...
I'm currently finishing the related work of my PhD thesis which deals with memory, so I want to chime in to say that some studies [2] have tested this, i.e. that memory recall is tied to the linguistic environment in which the learning took place.

On (FB) Messenger and WhatsApp. It's not the same.
SimulaVR will do this (NUC+battery), but on a VR headset.
Perhaps you are not the intended audience for this article.
hm, perhaps you like edna?
This came up a few days ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42671472
Maybe you can use tabula [0] to extract the information from the PDF?
I know it may be at odds with "less hassle", but any thoughts/plans on making it compatible with Home Assistant? Would be nice to have an option to show an HA dashboard there.
Thank you and congratulations for this incredible work. Maybe consider adding some type of reference/credits to the PDF?
I think it would be useful for people downloading this and then not remembering where they got it from. It would be cool to be able to give credit where its due :).
Quite a jump from the original title: "WordPress CEO Rage Quits Community Slack After Court Injunction"
@dang could it be fixed?
I have not tested them yet, but (actually) self-hosted potential alternatives: linkwarden [0], hoarder [1]

USB-C mandate.
The myth is the game being a health hazard, not if it was banned (or not).
I guess it depends. My partner still gets woken up by my (smart)watch at the lowest vibration setting.
Model should be available for testing here [0], although I tried to upload a video and got an error in Chinese, and whenever I write something it says that the API key is invalid or missing.
They manage in neighboring Switzerland though
At twice the ticket price, probably :)
Or an accident that they try to pass as an assassination attempt, or an internal attack they try to pass as a foreign attack. Who knows. We certainly do not.
