I am actually thinking about switching from Garmin to Apple. I use smartwatch mostly for health tracking, partially as a smart watch and to help me train for half marathons.

Garmin is generally good but there are two issues:

1. Sleep and Hearth Rate tracking - it's still a bit hard for me to believe(am I missing something?) that Apple with Watch OS 9 seem to have much better sleep and hearth rate tracking (which Vo2max, HRV and other things are based on). Plus at least for me on Venu 2 watch GPS when running tend be really iffy , when running in small city with 5 floor buildings at most

2. App ecosystem - I don't really mind UX of Garmin it's ok for me. The issue is that I like to listen to podcasts and Garmins Spotify app is pretty bad at synchronisation. - The main app have bunch of things which are either useless (like insights), are often imprecise (Stress measurements) or are clumsy to use (setting up custom workouts through Web UI, strength training app) - I am bit capture by Apple now so I expect to get other marginal benefits with Apple - Access to data, there are only Apps integrating with Garmin and it's not really possible to create your own to have a full access to the API - garmin pay not as supported as apple pay in my area

The biggest challenge for me was always mainly the battery life and price to a degree - Ultra obviously doesn't really solve it. - I am hoping that annoyance of charging will be balanced out by more smooth experience - I don't like to wear my Garmin all day especially when just sitting behind the pc (maybe I just need a different band?) so charging might not be such a big deal, expect for travelling.

And as for a price I have same problem as I have with Fenix or Epix, I would pay for stuff I will never use. If only Apple Watch 8 would get the extra battery, battery GPS and extra button, but ou well.

So Apple would me to - get more of my runs without phone (thanks to apple pay, easy podcast sync, audible app) - more precise healthy tracking - bit better experience thanks to 3rd party and my reliance on Apple

or maybe I am just got convinced by marketing and try to justify it to my self :)

Yeah those headphones are great, but they are not true wireless.

I am extremely puzzled by true wireless bluetooth headphones to a point where it's hard to find high-end wired bluetooth headphones.

True wireless have so many drawbacks: - lower battery life yet people got convinced that they last long thanks to powerbank, I meant ,,case" which you need to carry.

- bulkier so they stick out of ear one way or another. They fall down easily when changing t-shirts, huddies .. - easy to lose

Any more details what does Chromium 52 and Electron 1.3.x bring to table?

Things like these shouldn't happen. I strongly believe that we have the resources and the knowledge to safe many people lives. It is tragedy that many of us willingly let those resources be wasted, by whatever plan politicians elected by us come up with.

This may sound like cliche but I believe it is truth

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.(Edmund Burke)

Question is what can we do to improve it?

Things like easiest things to do is spend some money on organization supporting research, helping those in need in general.

Help research by joining folding@home, rosetta@home or other distributed computing project.

Spend some time helping in some charity.

This is a little but it might help to safe life someone you know. I am curious if there is some other plan for this.

You might use it if you are familiar with javascript as many people are. It makes creating packages for many people possible.

You do have have few packages which helps you connect remotely.

2MB limitation should be handled when 1.0 is released, meanwhile view-tail-large-files package might help.

This is terrifying story, my question is what we can do , so less people suffer from it. Here are few of my suggestions. I am curious about your opinion:

1. Obviously take care about your health.

2. Send as much money as you comfortable can to somewhere, where you think it might make the biggest difference.

3. Support indirectly companies which focuses on these problems. As consumer you can give them feedback on their apps. You can promote them amongst the friends(although make sure you aren't promoting some pseudoscience nonsense). You can choose to buy products from companies which helps the good cause.

4. Work on problem your self directly in work or in free time, by working on open source project, helping some organization.

5. Inform others about science. Many people don't trust the science, doesn't understand basic of scientific research, which can obviously hurt the research (by less funding, cancellation of research), helps ineffective pseudo-scientific treatment.

6. Give info to others about different treatments, and scientific breakthroughs. Many people have information about last treatments only through news, who can care more about great headline than boring truth.

7. Use your pc/mobiles by joining programs like Folding@home.

Any other tips?

I would say it is because there are many branches of ethics and not every one is consequentialist as you seem to be. Meaning that some people think that what is or what isn't ethical depends of consequence.

Other group - deontologist believe in some rule or sets of rule and they might not be concerned with consenquences that much.

Famous trolley problem describe this idea nicely.

Obviously this is problem on its own.
