news.ycombinator.com Noah Hall 2026-01-21 20:26:32

Many of my philosophies in work life, my volunteer life, and my personal life stem from experiences. As a developer, many of those come from being burnt by rough edges or mistakes. Just as health & safety principles come from accidents, my development practices come from bugs, errors, and mistakes. With that in mind, here’s a war-story from my days running an R&D startup when we lost all the data we thought we gathered from a psychology study. I founded an R&D startup that worked closely with

Apple TL;DR Samsung is working on an on-device voicemail feature similar to iOS’s Live Voicemail. This feature would allow calls to be screened and corresponding voice messages to be stored directly on the device. Unlike Apple’s version, Samsung’s will let users customize ring time before redirecting a call, but lacks transcription functionality, at least for now.
