I guess iPhoneys are just as far behind the curve as I always suspected.

I would imagine some of the more limited Bluetooth profiles (like A2DP, which is the music playing profile) are implemented entirely within the operating system, so are trusted services that can operate in background processing. On the other hand, transferring arbitrary data is probably going to be implemented within a third party application, so isn't trusted and thus isn't permitted background processing access?
That said, the relevant Apple docs do talk about applications having background access to Bluetooth, but it's limited in comparison to foreground access.

From my daily e-mail from the Oxford English Dictionary:Quote: As our lexicographers monitor the language developments related to Covid-19, 21 words, sub-entries, and revisions have been added to the Oxford English Dictionary in our latest update, including self-isolation, flatten the curve, and social distancing. [^]Quote: It is a rare experience for lexicographers to observe an exponential rise in usage of a single word in a very short period of time, and for that word to come overwhelmingly to dominate global discourse, even to the exclusion of most other topics. Covid-19, a shortening of coronavirus disease 2019, and its various manifestations has done just that. As the spread of the disease has altered the lives of billions of people, it has correspondingly ushered in a new vocabulary to the general populace encompassing specialist terms from the fields of epidemiology and medicine, new acronyms, and words to express the societal imperatives of imposed isolation and distancing. It is a consistent theme of lexicography that great social change brings great linguistic change, and that has never been truer than in this current global crisis. Now, if JavaScript frameworks for the web would only stop multiplying like proverbial bunnies ...

Whew! Realized what I had done after posting. NO WAY could I have come up with a clue. Just keep my guessed to myself from now on.

Is this still "winner stays on"? I think I know the answer for a change, but the only clue I could come up with would be the traditional "gegs".

Yes, it's still winner stays on, but I'll do it tomorrow if you get it and don't want to.

OK. Is it "railroad"?

How does "gegs" play into this? I had to look it up, but I don't get it.
Let me know if you want me to set it again tomorrow.

It's the traditional clue for people like me who can't come up with cryptic clues: gegs (9, 4)
I think I might have one, although it's probably not very good. What's the normal time for setting it?

I feel no.
There are three important things in a task item.
1. Title/Summary
2. Description
3. And all the pile of attributes. Assignee, date, created by, Link, severity, attachments, etc etc.
99% of the time, what a small project needs is just the title & description.
In the current project, 80% of the task's context/meaning is understood just with the title.
Only if something needs elaboration, they will go to check Description.
Now how the new version Jira shows me the screen is, (COLUMN-wise Vertical space, LEFT to RIGHT)
5:5:60:30
5% the standard full-time menu - On the extreme Left.
5% the titles, the List of items' titles.
60% on the Description for the currently selected item title (Big empty space @ the middle)
30% significant space occupied by attributes that are not used, For the selected item (Extreme right )
In the 5% vertical space I for the TITLES, I can only see 3 items at a time.
Just imagine. I have close to 160 items created.
And I have a tiny window of 3 items visibility per scroll.
I feel like ditching JIRA and running back to a spreadsheet.

GitHub’s my favourite - but for on-premises, Redmine has been good for us. Jira is too ‘enterprise’ for me.

I just use a text file, which is included in the project (and compiled into the exe, along with the mod history).
Date, type, description - that's all I need.
Simple, and works for me - but I'm a one-man band, so that's fine. For a multi-developer startup (or even a startup with a separate QA dept) I'd want more traceability and multiuser access.
JIRA is a bit on teh heavy-duty side unless you are part of a massive team IMHO though.

I've worked with Jira before and it worked well for us.
Enter a title and description and go.
There's a lot of bloat in the interface though and I'm not familiar enough with Jira to know if or how it can be reduced.
I know cards and boards are customizable though so I'm guessing you can make it work for you.
GitHub is pretty good as well.
And I've heard good things about GitLab although I haven't used their ticketing system all that much.
I've used Azure DevOps for ticketing as well, but only because it was already there (we used Scrum, but they have Kanban as well).
The real power of GitHub, GitLab and DevOps is not their ticketing though, but their overall package of (Git) source control, ticketing and CI/CD pipelines.
You might be better off with a simple Kanban board, such as Trello.
You can use Trello for anything because it's just a board, simple.

I think JIRA is too demanding for simple usage (when self-hosted)
Here are some alternatives: jira-alternatives[^]
Where I work I have to reset the JIRA server almost every day because it runs out of memory.

I know you just want to rant, but if all you care about most of the time is the issues title, use the backlog view instead of the sprint/kanban board views.
On my 15" laptop screen it's ~5-25% left hand UI (collapsed vs expanded), with the remainder a list of issues titles (as much as there is room to fit) with minimum metadata (type icon, epic if any, issue number, priority icon). Non-scrolling page header is about 20-25% vertical space, below that is space for 15 issues. On my main (1920x1200) screen there's room for ~25 issues at a time.

Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

JIRA — ImgBB[^]
JIRA2 — ImgBB[^]
I now see at the bottom we have "View all filters", Through which we can get to the list view.
But it's crazy. The whole UI navigation is a mess.
I don't think JIRA has a worthy UX team.

They obviously practice BDD, ( Driven Development) and have a lot of it on tap.
