Yeah I have no idea what the hell it was doing either. Had similar problems on a few other shots inconsistently. I did wonder if it was some artifact of image stabilisation. I have an iPhone 15 Pro now which is ok if you are careful but has

It's 2:1 zoom on a 64MP main camera on a Google Pixel 7A. It absolutely destroyed it. Wasn't low light either.

No one seems to care about carrying another brick around on top of the 11 pairs of shoes. The new stuff doesn't weigh a lot. It's not FF bricks any more. Nikon stuff is mostly magnesium and plastic.

I don't disagree with most of this. The thoughts around it only come from that one day you will inevitably have where you take a really good photo on your phone. Then you get home and realise that it's actually trash. This was my

This is probably a combination of the lens corrections, the pretty awful auto white balance (warmth), the terrible oversharpening and also a bit of True Tone. Portrait mode also wrecks a lot of photos due to the crappy emulation of DOF. Out

This is a silly take. I’ve got an iPhone 15 Pro and quite frankly the camera on it is pretty good. But it has severe limitations both on reach and quality which you can’t get around without actually putting some real glass in front of it. A

Someone is going to get sued. Inevitably it'll be quoted verbatim at some point. We are in such a bad place with this technology. And it is beyond criticism because of the amount of money resting on it.

There's a few more you're missing there which is the point of the investigation.

There is a whole chain of causality. They were killed by multiple successive problems compounding. See Swiss cheese model.

Possible comms failure. ATC are responsible for reporting surface wind. It may have lead to a bad decision by the pilots. Go around versus teardrop etc.

They retracted the gear after the first landing attempt. I suspect they either missed it on the teardrop or had secondary hydraulic failure and no time to do a gravity drop. I would err on the side of crew error because there were clear si

I don’t disagree with that. It is a compounding issue but I am much more interested in what happened up to that point. Many many small things or one big thing went wrong for it to even get to that point.

I wouldn’t state that with any certainty. They touched down 1500m down the runway with little to no braking or reverse thrust. The ending may have been less violent but the outcome may have been the same. I’d rather go from blunt force than

They already botched a gear down landing, which is almost never mentioned. They retracted the gear and did a teardrop go around from a headwind into a tailwind belly flop. Stinks of bad crew resource management and ATC which is why the ATC

I think this is disingenuous reporting. It’s too early to actually draw a conclusion. We should wait for the full investigation. There are a large number of compounding problems here. That was just the last one.

I disagree. The problem is more nuanced. A well implemented (native) app is always better than a well implemented web site. The problem is poorly implemented apps which are just UI wrappers hitting dumb APIs or embedding entire web stacks w

I suspect it’s because developers learn from the top down. Fifty layers of crappy abstractions are invisible.

I don’t think the principal market actually cares about that.

Idea: Markov-chain bullshit generator HTTP proxy. Weights/states from "50 shades of grey". Return bullshit slowly when detected. Give them data. Just terrible terrible data. Either that or we need to start using an RBL system
