In the modern digital era, that has actually changed quite a bit. Now cameras are really sensitive – the equivalent of what used to be 2500 to 4000 ISO is now really common – so instead of adding light, often you have to flag off light in a

Imagine light represented as a floating point number of the type a * 2 ^ b Stops describes the range of the exponent b. With a typical cinema camera, max_b > min_b + 14 You can use tricks like gradient ND filters to increase the perceive

I'm bilingual in English and German, but when I use "Kindergarten" or "Uber" in an English sentence, that's still English, while when I use "Sorry" in a German sentence, that's still German. It&#

There is a very simple way out that reddit could take, similar to what spotify does: Third Party Apps continue being allowed, but API access requires the user's account to have reddit gold. People would be unhappy and complain, but the

Something I can recommend is taking a bicycle and intentionally getting lost in the city. Cycle random intersections in random directions and you'll quickly start to build a mental map. You can go from being entirely new to having a me

Even in Düsseldorf, building an entire new subway tunnel for several lines through downtown was about a billion euros. Hamburg's new Hafencity lime was in a similar price range, and the new U5 will be as well. New York for some reason

Of course you can start an mp4 at an arbitrary point, that's what fragmented mp4 is for :) It's just lots of independent separate mp4 files concatenated into a single file.

Regarding clock, ideally you'd want to be able to genlock them. The goal is to ensure that all input sourced send their video frames at the exact same point in time, and that each audio device also samples at the exact same points in t

You're supposed to hold it in place the entire time, it's not two reads but many continuous ones.

I've had it working on several Google Pixels, Nokias, and Sony Xperias. With the eID of myself and several friends. Try if you can reliably read and write simpler NFC cards (e.g. a Mifare card as common for eTicket or university cafete

I've been using the ausweisapp on several phones, it's always worked reliably. But you have to hold the ID in the spot for NFC scanning for a solid minute, including while you type the PIN.

If you're running a community funded website, you don't need any of this overhead. In the 90's, pretty much the entire internet ran without these jobs. Sure, they're necessary if you have an actual company, but the point

That doesn't turn them off, that just consents to everything, including types of tracking that cookie blockers can't get rid of. Please use consent-o-matic instead.

European cats aren't native to northern america, and as result, they're quite an invasive species with significant harm to the ecosystem. But that's not just limited to cats, that issue applies even to different species of la

We've got to be really careful with those numbers. There's a massive difference in the ecosystem between continents. While we've become used to flora and fauna from continental Europe being brought to the rest of the world, t

Gaussian blur is "easy", you can decompose it into a vertical and horizontal component and parallelize and vectorize most of the task. But that's a special case. If you have to actually fill the buffer the traditional way, it

If you read the article, they actually argue that the cats don't really have an effect because those 40 million birds are usually of species that aren't endangered and are usually birds that otherwise wouldn't have made it an

Quoting your own linked article: The UK’s largest bird charity, the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), is not particularly concerned about the impact of cats on the British mainland. Instead it focuses on what it says is driv

This is why all those "don't have outdoor cats, they kill all the birds" stories annoy me. At best they're misguided, at worse they're intentionally misleading to hide the fact that pesticides and farming practices

If you've got a local public broadcaster, you might want to watch the stream via them instead. Eurovision should usually be free of ads after all.

It's precisely the same as with Google, just that Google does it directly via an API call and Sony does it with you manually typing the code.

Interestingly, that's less of a thing over here. e.g., productions of the public broadcasters in Germany usually end with the date in Arabic numerals. Including Sesame Street.

Considering how sluggish web applications are, please no. If you really want to, you can run Inkscape in the browser the same way Figma runs in the browser: compile it to WASM.

It's exactly this "we didn't start the fire" mentality that caused the situation we're in. If you want the world to change, you need to do that. You can't just wait for it to happen.
