i've been listening to ambient for years now. i don't find it boring; if anything I find anything with vocals and a beat distracting. there's a lot of forgettable ambient, as expected, but there's also numerous albums th

right? this is a very janky rig too, with an inverted tripod and the negative holders sitting on top of drink coasters in my bedroom. I want to see what happens with blocking out ambient light, a better carrier, a brighter more uniform ligh

it def gets easier with practice! i've found that colours stay pretty consistent across a roll and stock type so a per-film, per-light temperature presets work well (day, night, indoor).

i'm also exploring this, and have found my mirrorless to produce noticeably sharper images than the Epson V600 but not quite as sharp as an Imacon Flextight. to save time, i have saved some presets for colour correcting using a single

care to provide any sort of evidence?

whenever this comes up, this is inevitably the response, which sometimes betrays confirmation bias. these statistics are not hard to find.

i've had a Deluxe cabin experience with the shower. it was wonderful and private but anecdotally i still ended up sleeping better in the first class seats of the TGV that we had connection to right after the night train

that's a concern based on a reality that doesn't exist.

while i agree with you, there's a lot more going into performance and usability of a product than whether the employees are "the best"

The word "fast" appears 16 times on the page.

it's also a (decreasingly) culturally normalized break. it can feel strange to stand still or wander about aimlessly otherwise.

Touch ID in the locking button is neat but I've seen issues with the touch ID home button dying on previous generations of iPads. Wonder what'll happen with this generation.

we have a limited set of evidence and hysterectomies are one recent example. we just might know facts about other hospitals at this point. do you honestly expect the government to be an stellar example of transparency when it comes to force

i have the same experience. there is less retention when the object isn't permanent. that's another reason why i think it's important to keep notes as handwritten visually and not convert/OCR into typed text.

right, i'm talking about implementing something new. if you're trying to refactor or alter an existing codebase, it can be even easier: you add another test to an already existing suite. i don't think i've ever sat down,

by mitjak 6y ago
sure! write a few tests pretending your thing is already implemented, to capture what you want it to do. at this point it's a step beyond writing no test and just typing `YourThing.Do()` in a text editor. does it make sense? is it awkw

i see art is some amounts of aesthetic rendition and an encapsulation of an idea. Rembrandt might lean more into the former, while e.g. found objects (dada etc) and something like this are more the latter. "bad art" only exists in

are you really arguing there would be a higher chance of compliance if instead of making it law we resorted to politely asking?
