<p>For what it is worth, no graduate student would say they are doing 'Ph.D level' research. It is called 'graduate level research' or just, you know, 'research'<p>Sounds like a fun project, I wish you the best. I ran a similar program (independent study that encouraged freshman/sophomore undergraduates to explore using microprocessors, at the time the EE curriculum was completely focused on analog circuit theory and ended at boolean logic) and it went well enough that it eventually became part of the official undergraduate curriculum.</p>

<p>There have been leaps and bounds of progress in the last few years. Youtube hardware acceleration works perfectly in chrome/firefox now (assuming you have working video drivers).<p>As far as I know netflix still limits you to 720p under most browsers (although their support page shows that opera of all things supports 1080p)</p>

<p>The second to last bullet point on the post is about the Samsung client, which (as you are aware) has been written but is currently held up in review Samsung. The first round of review took about 3 months(?!), and they are working through reproducing the vaguely stated issues found in the review.<p>It is thankless work, but they are actually quite close!</p>

<p>Not OP but I have had a set of the bose noise canceling earbuds that I have worn 5 days a a week for over 5 years now and absolutely love them. Noise canceling is excellent, comparable to the over-the-ear-style.<p>My main complaint is the onboarding process really pushes you to install their app. It is entirely unnecessary (can configure them by various tap codes) but still annoying they don't tell you that until you install the app...</p>

<p>I have been self hosting a matrix setup for a few years now, using the spantaleev ansible playbook. It does require updates roughly once a year to keep up with changes of the 3rd party chat APIs. Generally that involves logging into the server and running 'just update' followed by 'just install-all', but occasionally there are changes that need updates to the playbook as described in the release notes. In the worst case, if one of your bridges does go down you can always fall back to the vendor client for that protocol until you get the bridge updated.<p>Overall it has been absolutely rock solid, and the new element x app has been night and day compared to the old one.<p>Feels a lot like the days of using Pidgin chat, but since the bridges run on the server you only need to authenticate once instead of going through the process for every device.</p>

<p>I got the same e-mail sent to an address unique to HN. 
It is a custom domain with a catch-all enabled, the e-mail only came to the HN specific address.<p>edit:
While the above statement is true, the e-mail was posted publicly on a 'whos hiring' thread so there is no mystery as to why it is receiving spam.</p>

<p>The only time I have used real-time linux was for CNC control through linuxcnc (formerly emc2). <a href="https://linuxcnc.org/" rel="nofollow">https://linuxcnc.org/</a><p>It works great, and with a bit of tuning and the right hardware it could achieve ~1us worse cast jitter numbers (tested by setting a 1ms timer and measuring how long it actually takes using the linuxcnc internal tooling). Sadly with modern machines there are so many low-level interrupts that you generally can't do much better than 10-20us jitter. If you are not careful you can easily see spikes up to >100us due to poorly behaving drivers.</p>
