    Things such as these are increasingly important to me, because I'm almost totally reliant upon hearing aids. I have suffered from tinnitus 24/7/365 for maybe two decades.

    I currently use Oticon hardware with Oticon Companion on iPadOS – apps.apple.com/us/app/oticon-c – I'll use the app on Android before too long.

  2. Can you hear the beep? 👂

    An audiogram measures something extremely useful: the quietest pure tone we can detect at different frequencies.

    But:
    Detection ≠ Attention ≠ Understanding

    Real hearing means extracting a voice from noise, recognising incomplete information, localising sound, adapting to change — and doing all of that comfortably and without unreasonable cognitive effort.

    My new HybridMind42 article asks a simple question:
    Are we measuring hearing loss, or measuring enough of human hearing to understand what a person actually needs?

    The audiogram isn't the problem.
    Don't break the tool. Define its proper boundaries.
