Out in California, living near massive crow populations is a plus, because they terrorize the hell out of the hawks would otherwise mercilessly pick off your backyard chickens. It's truly impressive stuff, watching the crows coordinate

The most passionate professional people are working on this. In 46 years, legions of amateur coders have fully reverse engineered game consoles, networks like AOL/Prodigy, retro computing systems, you name it. For free/fun. I trul

sorry, I'm having a hard time understanding what this thing does? Basically it removes the page numbers that would normally appear at the bottom of forum pages? Could that have been accomplished with dynamically changing display to non

It cracks me up when Microsoft posts these infinitesimally niche design projects/articles, where they pretend to care about good design, and then utterly fail to deliver it systematically across the organization, let alone even fractio

Here's my problem with it. F1 is a sport for elites + billionaires, but even the racers are all incredibly wealthy/fortunate nepo babies. It's one of the most inaccessible sports in the entire world. It takes an average of $2

You're being downvoted because most devs are blue collar and hate the idea of passionate talented devs doing something amazing quickly and effectively. Any anecdotes of small elite team success must be crushed.

I can almost guarantee you're getting mercilessly downvoted because half of the people here are sympathetic Meta worshippers who desperately (1) wish they worked there and (2) know they'd probably contribute similarly to this same

Comparing this to AE is absurd. And this is NOT suitable for motion graphics. This person is completely conflating what compositing/post is and motion graphics.

I love how this is done with jQuery. And it'll be obvious to literally anyone whose ever used jQuery (and is a good designer) how perfectly suitable and in many ways superior jQuery would be for something like this. But 98% of develope

Why has it been so utterly impossible for a single Windows laptop manufacturer to match the build quality? Just matching the body itself would at last be SOMETHING.

It's wild to me the author would overlook such a crucial thing (ignoring linear space). But then again, even Adobe barely supports linear and it's 2024.

I love how they can't help but to make this a Texas vs. CA thing in the first few sentences. So here we're go: based on Texas' track record, these batteries are going to fail disastrously the first hard winter they get.

I don't even use TikTok and I know this is a ridiculously naive take. TikTok is where all of the content is. Its algorithm is designed to optimize for exactly what you want to see. That's why they're the biggest. If you'
