Is there any such standard that’s been supported for so long?

The first step is admitting (you have a problem), the next is trying the stupid thing to show yourself how stupid it is.

Thanks for the correction and fantastic resource. I still resonate with the less-reductive sentiment of the quote; among friends in fields with little relation to their personal interests, I'm (un?)fortunate to have willed my way from

His apparently original post, "automation is an inductive proof that Marx was wrong," along with that recent pseudophilosophical essay about "wanting what you want (to want)^n," concerns me as to whether he's jumped

Many of those you listed were, at least at my university, actually understaffed in my opinion, especially mental health services. Our department director of grad studies told me that the counseling center went through double-digit turnovers

I went to one of the schools mentioned in TFA (the one with a real engineering program) and thankfully didn’t deal with any of the bloated positions mentioned; I just did my classes, project teams, and professional orgs and got out in three

I can relate. It ebbs and flows, but right now I'm content with devoting my weekends to working on my projects: also practicing music, organizing several terabytes of photos from the past decade, hobby robotics projects, making a dent

The discussion on photography and its relationship to capital-R Reality dates back to the medium’s inception. There is no lens-sensor system that can capture what we see with our eyes, but is what we see even “reality?” Is the reality of a

I’ve never been able to get it to work. Setting it to act as a USB-C card reader and tethering to my iPad isn’t too bad, though.

The list of Fujis I've owned/sold/kept: - 5 X100s (2x T, 2x F, currently own a V) - 2 X-Pro2s (one went to my younger cousin) - 1 X-T2 (upgraded to an X-T3) - 2 X70s (sold them - too heavy for a point-and-shoot, fantastic oth

The Ricoh GR and the sprinkled offerings from Fujifilm have been the only worthwhile point-and-shoots for a long time. I still take my Fuji XF10 with me everywhere because it's unobtrusive and will archive better than anything a small-

It's a shame how well-designed and fun-to-use Fujifilm cameras are (I've owned several and they are the only digital cameras I use, apart from my phone) but how garbage their mobile app is. From what I've seen, Leica is the o

Most people that I know beyond a certain friendship threshold have told me similar. And with how noisy every space is, from the public gas stations with screens to the private smartphone apps brimming with ads, we're getting more and m

I've been dabbling with Talon to reduce the burden on my precious arm tendons. It's the most useful voice interface I've used due to its customizability, but with that great customizability comes a great learning curve that i

I also use Obsidian, and paired with a handwriting keyboard for Apple Pencil support (e.g. mazec; Apple's built-in scribble feature is too finnicky), it's been my Goldilocks note-taking method for the past few months.

Studies like this are never universal, nor do they claim to be. The only thing they can claim is statistical significance.

The best part is when they deflect blame onto the individual and tell us to "do our part" while they guiltlessly continue their polluting practices. Just like they do with mental health.

Thanks for the long response and I agree that experimentation like yours needs to have more venues for exposure, which is hard to do in our contemporary content treadmill. "The enemy of art is the absence of limitations." Seeing r

I got an Apple Watch in the endgame of my PhD to catch all the thoughts I'd have out and about, particularly on runs. I rarely reviewed them and a lot was adrenaline-induced ranting and raving, but the act of documenting helped cement

Similar things were probably said about smartphones with touch screens being inferior to physical buttons. After using my tablet as a second screen for production, photo editing, CADing, and coding, it's become woefully apparent that t

Ciani is the perfect example that I was about to bring up myself. I got to see her perform live at a conference, and out of her whole setup, she waxed poetic most about her iPad.

Dodging and burning and masking and using other photo-related tools with a mouse and keyboard feels like I'm producing a very calculated photograph. Using a stylus and multi-touch screen feels closer to the original affordances of craf
