We really need to stop expecting so much from speech in technology. It simply isn't a great input method. It's loud, it lacks privacy, and for short commands it takes way too long. I think a lot of people are counting on speech to

So far food scarcity looks like the most plausible explanation. Someone needs to get a massive campaign together in flyover zones to get people to scatter food for them. Assuming appropriate feed for these species is even widely available i

I've never come across a photo app without a WB setting. These people should discard their phones along with their notions that they are holding a camera that will always perfectly capture the scene as their eyes see it. You can use th

"That said, in this particular situation, you'd be changing the WB in post." I definitely would not be doing that lol. I would prefer to set up the camera so that I can get an idea of what I'm actually capturing before I

The fact that you had to add a wikipedia link for disposable cameras makes me feel old

That's not generally how it works. Although it's possible, I promise you professional photographers shooting in RAW are setting their white balance well ahead of importing the files into any photo editing software. You're not

Exactly! You could measure the collective eye-rolling of all the electronics engineers who work in the photo industry on seismographs around the world. (hopefully overstating the reach of this garbage article) Edit: Not to mention that the

Yeah, I can agree with that. Before I got into photography I believed the same thing. In fact I was driven to it by the disparities in my own images when compared to professional examples. The reason this article is so frustrating to me is

I didn't really agree with the top level comment either. This isn't an artifact of sensor size or A/D conversion or any of that. You can encounter the exact same issue with a $40,000 medium format camera if you don't und

Unfortunately this reality applies to _all_ digital cameras, not just the oversimplified versions found on many smart phones. Also, with smartphone sensor/lens quality improvements as well as computational photography enhancements, sma

As someone with a professional photography background, this article was actually super upsetting. The author is like "look, this gas station one is the only one that worked".. well yeah, the camera's white balance algorithm s

Just set the image's white balance to daylight (3500K). The colors that you see will not be corrected. You can tweak from there.

While I agree that RAW capture will provide an improvement in the amount of data gathered from the sensor, and available for adjustments later on, if a user sets a custom white balance while taking a RAW picture, that setting will generally

Unless I missed something in the article, this has nothing to do with sensor or lens size. This is purely an artifact of default image processing settings and ignorance of white balance. Any user with any digital camera can perfectly captur

Oh OK, I didn't see that when I scanned the documentation. CSS is an interesting solution for that

This would definitely be really interesting if it had the ability to create analytics in response to UI interactions. There are a lot of SPAs out there that use analytics for feature tracking, and the self-hosted aspect would fit well with
