So apparently we can control our tensor tympani muscle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensor_tympani_muscle

That's a good hypothesis! But I have a strong preference for email over SMS for communication from companies, so I receive almost no texts from credit card companies. It's pretty much limited to an occasional authentication code for logging in (since TOTP-based two-factor is so unfortunately rare).

1. We didn't experience that many incidents that couldn't wait until working hours.

2. There was never an explicit expectation to keep an eye out. We did it anyway because we were at an early-stage startup, and we all deeply cared about making our products work for our customers.

Her name was (I sadly lost her to cancer) Bamboo! Because one of the first things she did after I adopted her was to try to eat my bamboo plant.

And thanks for the tip. I've been using Notion, but I've kept my eye on Obsidian and Roam too.

If the app doesn't bother to categorize its notifications into channels at all, I turn off its notifications entirely, and I won't turn it back on.

If something is important enough, I can always manually check on it. My attention is too valuable to me to waste it on useless notifications.

I do want more control over my notifications in general. I use Google Apps Script to automatically process/triage my email, and I want to do something similar with notifications. I can probably do so using Tasker, but I haven't gotten around to it.

And yep, It was my bad to misunderstand the first knob. I should have read the manual instead of assuming. I added a note to the post.

Looking at some customer reviews, I do see some complaints that it doesn't work very well on this model. But still, I should have read the manual. Thanks for correcting me!

Maybe the Bitwarden extension should warn users when they try to copy/view a TOTP code by searching for a login rather than using a matched entry.

U2F is my preferred method of MFA, but many services don't support it, and there can be practical issues even for the ones that do. For example, some services support U2F in a browser but not in mobile apps.

This is the main reason I rarely use voice controls. Even if voice is faster than typing for most cases, typing never fails catastrophically like voice does.

I could use voice only when I'm confident it will work, but then there's the mental load of making that prediction. It's easier to just always go with typing.

In a real life conversation, you digest in real time as you hear the other person. You don't have to wait for chunks of their thoughts.
