The answer is custom layouts. Here's my layout for the Mitosis split ergo keyboard designed for dvorak if you want inspiration. https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/keyboards/mi... I

You don't have to customize everything you buy in the future. Even after getting a 40% (Mitosis) I can still type just fine on staggered keyboards. I recommend going to column stagger rather than ortholinear.

That's specific to HEPA filters. Most air filters are not as capable as HEPA filters.

So that's why clarinet "squeaks" sound so grating: the higher overtones don't fit cleanly into the twelve-note scale.

I think the problem is that there are two nearly polar opposite desires for UI and processing, that require totally different approaches to a camera. One is the smartphone user who desires good quality for whatever the situation, who just w

The inconvenience of processing raw files is why I wrote my own software [0] to do the tonemapping to truly make a wide dynamic range scene look natural on a low dynamic range display. Now I spend mere seconds processing each raw image, and

The A6600 sensor first appeared on the A6300, actually, not the A6000, so it's "only" three years old. That said, they've bumped into the upper limits of image quality; the newer 26MP sensor (which you'll find in th

The dynamic range is there in a raw file. You just need to apply tonemapping the way cell phones do it. My 2008-era 1Ds3 still crushes a modern phone (I have a Pixel 2) in dynamic range when processed properly, and a D7500 is even better st

They did all kinds of crazy stuff in the name of rocket science. Nothing like HF as an exhaust gas... Or injecting liquid mercury into an already carcinogenic nitrogen tetroxide/hydrazine-burning chamber to boost the thrust...

The benefits of cars are obvious. Nobody needs an article to point them out, just like how we don't need articles extolling the incredible energy density and wide availability of gasoline. The articles are here to point out the non-obv

I can definitely see the 12g springs being great for a chording board, but I usually favor heavy springs, with 55g Topre and Box Navy in my two daily drivers.

Neat! I actually got to lay hands on a Georgi yesterday because one of my online friends I met up with (for non-keyboard-purposes) brought one. Very solid-feeling.

The problem is you get to choose either a better layout or better keycaps. My Mitosis has a really great layout but I paid more for non-legended caps so I could get the profile I wanted. Other people with unusual ergo layouts go with non-sc

Pascal's Wager is something you either make or don't make based on your own understanding of the odds of each outcome and the costs of each outcome. Clearly you have a different understanding than Elon.

You might be right about there being more cars in the rural areas. In cities, it's no contest, there are hordes of scooters and only some cars. And 99% of the scooters were electric, in my experience.
