I so agree! As someone into photography, light is everything. It can even turn oversaturated fabrics into more uniform and less screaming colors. The diffusion of the light flattens things, but the interesting angles create interesting shad

I just think you're misdirecting your energy.

Your country has the most unpopular and ineffective leader in the modern history. Is this Elon Musks fault? The US is also having trouble with its representative democracy due to many issues, Elon Musk is a relatively small influence on the

No, you focus. Do you think you can focus on something other than mechahitler? Do you go to bathroom and can't poop because of Elon Musk?

That's a great feature... I think I just collapsed 10 threads last night and gave up. I decided to refresh the page this morning, and found a new comment at the top that resonated with my experience last night.

I came to this thread trying to understand the technical capabilities of this release and how it fits into the current competition. I want to see a discussion about this, but I can't find it, because every reply is like yours, about ph

Oh no, this meme again. Of course you should learn SQL. But also, you can use a library to help generate SQL based on classes and objects that you change, so you don't have to repeat yourself. Why don't you use both?

Yet, Quake III Arena had no single player. It was a fun MP game, I spent years playing. It's not really the same as Quake and Quake 2.

It would only be like that if MLK was trying to become the lead white supremacist.

The bigger head scratcher to me isn’t even one prompt, it is the prompt to build a platformer from scratch. Who does that? Absolutely no one. What about: take top 3 feature requests, top 3 bug reports for 3 popular open source projects and

Here is the thing, it’s a write only single file format. If you need to run analytical queries it’s optimized for reading, you just open a file and query for the parts you want. If you have multiple clients that read and write data to the d

I can see this as a critique on over-use of clustering for whether you have more than a handful of points to visualize. However, I do think this article completely misses the use case when you need to give a ballpark overview of density or

> You must have some state to handle tokens securely, and if you must have a data store, it's better to just store all the data. This is quite a loaded statement. Why is it better to store all the data? What if you have a CDN layer

How often does this actually happen? People have been studying capitalism for more than a 100 years and this argument has been rehashed for a long time. Free market capitalism will only allow a startup to gain ground via innovation and offe

This is slightly disappointing, but it's probably necessary cope. If you want to build startups which move fast and break things, you have to ignore many problems and many people of this state, country, and world. You start by ignoring

Have you tried the AirPods yet? I just want you to relax.

You're wrong. Here is the ranking based on aggregate sales to studios: 1. Audio-Technica ATH-M50x 2. Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro 3. Sony MDR-7506 4. Sennheiser HD 600 / 650 These are used in different situations. Most of the time head

There is no such thing as over the ear monitoring. There good headphones like HD600. It has good mids and great highs, however the base rolls off towards 20hz. Many AirPods, include AirPod Pro 2 have better low end than what people use for

What AirPods are you talking about? The wired AirPods that sound pretty bad have been overtaken by wireless Bluetooth AirPods for many years now. The AirPod Pro 2 sound quality is a world of difference from the wired earbud style AirPods. I

I actually agree with you, for the most part. The code I work with actually does contain some valuable algorithms, but Im pretty sure the effort of integrating them into a larger system is pointless without the data. It’s almost like steali

I love DL. I think tables, at least in the past, were misused as DLs even more in the past and the inconvenience of the table markup is even worse than a bunch of divs.

It’s harder depending on the language, which is clearly the point.

I actually prefer VLC to foobar2000. However, I still prefer classic Winamp to to all other music players, and I wish I could get Apple Music work in the same interface. I like 100% of the classic Winamp player UI/UX. - I like the sepa

Named arguments are a great feature in Python. I often forget TypeScript doesn't have this, but I use the object form all the times. As a bonus, you can also declare these arguments in an object an interface type, aptly named.

I do not downvote comments when I disagree, and I think it’s better to explain why I would strongly disagree. Downvoting in this case almost reinforces the notion that the downvoted comment makes such a good point that it causes people to g

Is this actually GeoJSON falling down, or decades of convention extended to JSON? Topology is great, but it is sidestepped by Shapefile/WKT/WKB/etc, in favor of independent primitives like POINT, LINE, POLYGON. If GeoJSON did

That’s not an accurate take. Microsoft has had a monopoly on the PC desktop OS. Anyone writing applications for users was targeting Windows and using Microsoft. To call most of these developers “not serious” is quite and overstatement. This

I love Zed. I was a fan of Sublime Text, and could never get used to VSCode. I thought I'd try Zed a try when it was still extremely raw, before the AI integration, and I loved the simplicity and speed almost immediately. When they add
