Enable High Quality mode on your headphones (Updated for macOS Catalina)

If you're using a high-end bluetooth headset on your Macbook Pro it's likely your mac is using an audio codec which favors battery efficiency over high quality. This results in a drastic degradation of sound, the SBC codec is the likely culprit, read more about it here.

Find out what codec you're using

  1. Play a song on your headphones
  2. Option (⌥) click the Bluetooth button at the top of your screen Inspect the Bluetooth Coded
  3. If you're using AAC or aptX, you can stop here—those are the highest quality codecs.

Change your codec to AAC or aptX

How on earth does Asyncio work

What are coroutines?

Coroutines are functions that can be paused. We define them using the async syntax:

async def say_something(what):
    print(what)

But coroutines can't be run directly:

output += h.toString(16);

Running Python locally without driving yourself insane

This is my highly opinionated way of developing with Python locally. Use it, don't use it. But you probably know that it's a PITA to manage different projects with different dependencies targeting different Python versions, and there are different ways of installing Python too:

  • Using the interpreters preinstalled in the OS 😵
  • Using brew (or apt etc.) 😅
  • Using the binaries from www.python.org 😫
  • Using pyenv 😎
