With current digital sensors exposuring correctly doesn't even matter that much any more because of iso-invariance when under exposing photos. There's som uch information that wow. And yes, the auto exposure capabilities of the ca

I was excited about the idea, but PDFs are a big issue. I want my content as RSS feed, please (although having a RSS feed announcing new PDF issue could work...). Edit: The problem is that PDFs are basically usability wise readable only on

Yep, this is PITA as a user as well. 2.48.4 on Ubuntu 18.04 but finding about the same working version for Mac required additional hunting. But nevertheless Unison is awesome. Been using for the last 15 years or so <3

KDE’s terminal app Konsole is great and really ITerm-like at least with my usage patterns.

This is actually quite important. After supporting my family and relatives with Linux and Windows for 15 years, I decided that I’ll only support them if they buy Macs. My time has become more precious to myself than it was without family an

Agreed, my take on the same subject although from 2 years old, but I would make the same decisions still (though maybe switch to AMD Ryzen mobo and CPU;-) The Fractal Design Node 304 box is awesome. It's quiet, can host 6-7 disks altho

One of the things I’ve personally learned and been touting it ever since, is that it’s ok not to make perfect code in a hurry or when the real target is somewhere else, if the crude method solves the problem for long enough and is capsulate

I can kind of relate to you. Not sure about the 10x but on the previous job I ended up working as team lead, pm, janitor, process developer, architecture guy, partially managing the infra, teaching the stuff to others etc. We had quite good

Good compilation! I’ve been shooting digital-only for the last 12 years and tried 35mm film last year. Now my medium format itch became so bad that I ended up buying a Hassy with the 80mm lens to learn new (or old?) things. The mechanical f

In my experience this all boils to the fact that usually it's not the actual chosen technology stack but the missing craftmanship when making the stuff first time. Then you either end up refactoring the whole setup for years (which usu

Have you checked whether Vuescan or Silverfast supports your scanner model? They are quite amazing with supporting old hardware.

I really like white-on-black dark modes. They are somehow more pleasing than the other way round. There's a problem with all dark modes, though. If one is using laptop running on battery juice and needs to prolong the battery time, the

Now you’re comparing different sensor/negative sizes against each other. Usually ”full frame” (aka 135mm) diffraction starts to affect on smaller f-values (larger aperture) but on larger negative sizes the diffraction starts to be a pr

It's quite different to work for your own company as much as possible as you (hopefully) gain really something big in return. If you're doing mandatory constant crunch for somebody else without extraordinary recompensation, then i

This happens even in the best families. Yesterday Outlook365 informed me that there's a suspicious and blocked message coming from Github. And yep, that was the email confirmation I should've received from the real Github. I would

I did use the new 2017 MBP for few months as my trusty, old type 2016 MBPr developed keyboard/trackpad connector issue after 2 years of constant use. The company I work for had to pay for changing the upper part of MBPr just because of

Actually, that would be really, really awesome once you get used to Jetbrains' way of working. It's so unusual to be able to search for all the configuration, functionality, code and files in the same place.

The idea of your shell script and Makefile are the same. For me it doesn't matter which one is used but source code should have some kind of easily usable list of common development tasks. Otherwise developers are doing this and that a

Although Laravel promotes ways of coding that keeps the code readable and more fun that the traditional Symfony/Java way (Like really long class namespaces and names that have redundant strings in them etc). Laravel uses Symfony compon

Actually, I'm kind of surprised Tumbler is trying to get rid of the all content instead of moving it to some separate "Porn Tumbler" instance. Sounds like there could be additional revenue stream coming out of that kind of st

Sounds kind of familiar. We started a mvp/prototype that was handed to one guy without that much of a planning. That guy is really good coder but not a product owner/manager, documentor or planner. You see where this is going? Thi

Haven't had to use Zend but at least Symfony DI is really heavy to use with all the services.yamls and the javaisms it introduces. DI can be heavy or it can be something mostly automagical like in Laravel. That's something I'

The reason why Apple's iOS App Store is so successful, is it's the only store accessible/allowed. On Mac Apple is also competing with Steam, which probably taxes quite a lot App Store game sales.

About everybody else but Canon uses Sony sensors and fab. Canon still designs their own sensors and ATM they seem to be losing the sensor tech race to Sony.
