It's actually incredible how terrible google images seems in comparison. Yandex is just so, so good for reverse image search

There's really so much physicality to interacting with objects that we've lost as we switch to more and more touch screens and capacitive buttons. Also the reassuring "thunk" of a nice chunky button to confirm you've pressed it is just so important to user confidence

Talking shit about Linux support or the software itself? I know at least 4 YouTubers that do all of their edits in resolve

Bigger chip = more surface area = higher chance for somewhere in the chip to have a manufacturing defect

Yields on silicon are great, but not perfect

I have a pixel 6 pro, works great Never had problems with the microphones, and calls are extra clear because they do some ai nonsense to upscale the audio coming into the phone My 2 main gripes are: The modem, I have issues with reception in the strangest locations, I can have direct line of sight to 3 different cell towers and still get stuck on edge till I hit the "Fix connectivity" button in settings, but when it is working (which it does 95% of the time), works great The camera, amazing photo quality, videos look great, I have nothing against image quality. But the videos this thing takes are MASSIVE, even with HVEC on, a 50 second video can weigh over 300mb. Not sure what's up with that. Oh also the main shooter camera is mechanically separated from the rest of the phone, so if you shake the phone or whip pan it too hard, you can hear it rattle.

Overall 9/10 though! I hear the pixel 7 has a better modem

This makes sense for the small stop and go trucks for around town, but I'm not sure if it's that great of an idea for longer haul trips between distribution centers

My pick recently has been Eurobeat when programming / writing, but I used to listen to breakcore for focus too.

I would guess this would be for drawing purposes? I don't see the appeal of writing with a charcoal pencil

Re:Ask HN: What are you doing this weekend? on Saturday October 22, 2022 @11:40AM (#33299189)
I want to finally start learning object oriented programming.

I've written a lot of stuff for automating tasks at work (Windows PowerShell) and tinkered with hobby projects (rust, python) in my free time, but I've never been able to wrap my head around why someone wouldn't want to do everything functionally until quite recently.

I taught myself to program so I didn't even know about the term "functional programming" until quite recently :P

I forgot about Parler's existence, it was super hyped up for about a month, then it fell off the face of the earth and I never heard anything about it again.

The audio denoising / filtering they have seems quite impressive, if only I could use it in real-time on teams calls

ShareX is a great alternative for the built in screenshot tools, it’ll even take gif screenshots :) I think it also has screen recording, but I’ve never used that
