How much time does ESP8266 plus sensor run before running out?

In that project they ran for less than a minute once every 30 min, on my 1200mAh they lasted around 2 weeks if I remember correctly. There's a lot of reading material online about sending the ESP8266 into standby mode.

As the other comment said, PocketCast does this for podcasts, you can set it to cut the silence. Also I believe Overcast on iOS.

For audiobooks, Listen Audiobook Player on Android does the same, though for some reason I find it distracting for audiobooks.

Unfortunately, PocketCast isn't very aggressive about clipping short pauses in speech, probably because it would tend to mangle things unless done carefully. (I suspect it would require a lot more software sophistication with human speech to appreciably change the average playback speed.) It cut out less than a second over the first few minutes of a conversation I used as an example, so it essentially does nothing.

Thanks for the suggestion, though. I never tried Overcast since I'm on an android, but I suspect it's similar to Pocketcast.

I really wants something that ups the average speed to ~2.5 while maintaining intelligibility.

Anybody figured how to get gold in "You can't get always what you want"?

I can't see any way to do it I think the solution is it's impossible.

I've been there for a while and tried everything... Nothing worked so far.

I started poking around with the javascript to see if I could hack it, but it seems to have server-side verification to stop you from moving to places you shouldn't be able to access.

Yes, Google Play store.

I've had the watch for some months now, and it works great with Android! With 4.3 and up, use can dismiss notifications on the pebble and they will be dismissed on the phone as well (using Notification Center). I use it to set timers on the watch (using Simply Alarm Holo) and also recently I've using it to track sleep with the Sleep as Android integration. And the biggest attraction to me for it is that with PebbleTasker you can trigger any Taskeer task you have set up to do pretty much anything you can think on your phone.

Any chance of Sleep as Android integration?

We have actually had a few people mention that recently and I definitely want to look more into it. How has your experience been with it?

I've been using the app for about a year and a half by now and it's been really great as an alarm (it detects and wakes you during light sleep). Plus it calculates sleep duration, which you could use in your app. I believe that the data are accessible as a .csv in the phone's SD card so it shouldn't be too difficult.

Fitbit has a reasonably good sleep API - as does Jawbone.

cool. we just started working on Jawbone, and hopefully will get around to fitbit in short order.

Latvia has been a member of the EU since 2004 (which entails all you mention), and now it joined the Eurozone as well, and will use euro as its currency.

I see. So they have been in a situation similar to the UK since 2004 until now? Thanks for the info!

Edit: After looking it up, there are 28 countries in the EU and 18 of them are in the eurozone.

EU countries other than UK and Denmark (who joined much earlier) are both required and allowed to adopt EUR as currency only as soon as they fulfill certain economic/fiscal criteria (don't have the exact figures in my head, easy to search though), whether intentionally or accidentally.

Hence.

Actually no. The UK is special in that they do not have to join the eurozone unless they want to all other EU members have to join the eurozone once they fullfil the necessary criteria.

>So they have been in a situation similar to the UK since 2004 until now?

Yes.. ..except not as many immigrants from 3rd world countries.

> from 3rd world countries

from ex UK colonies -- FTFY ;)

I bet a lot of people would fall in the category 0-1.

Yeah...I own 1/5th of a coin. There was a similar poll last week sometime I believe, and the poll had the same problem.

Points for trying to use a logarithmic scale, it just doesn't extend low enough.

Edit: I see it's fixed now.
