Gotcha. Cool setup!

> If you try to print big (let's say A3+) you'll rapidly find the limits of the m43 system I’ve printed a good number of images shot on m43 at about that size, and that’s not been …

Since you mentioned image processing in particular, I’d recommend looking into Halide instead of (or as well as) CUDA. Few reasons: 1. It allows for easy experimentation with the o…

At this point I'm pretty terrible at QWERTY on a physical keyboard. I'm fine with it on phones and tablets for some reason, but my brain is pretty hard-wired for Colemak on physica…

You may want to try using JetBrains' Rider as your IDE. I've hit similar issues with XF in VS, but Rider has been a much better experience for me. For instance: it won't lose its s…

That's fair, but I think that XF has a good story around integrations with other frameworks to fill its gaps: SkiaSharp has the SkiaSharp.Views.Forms namespace, for instance, and t…

If you're considering learning Dvorak, I'd strongly recommend considering Colemak instead. I tried Dvorak with the hope that it would mitigate RSI, but it spreads the work among fi…

Additionally, most cameras these days will under-expose by a pretty substantial amount. Digital darkroom software maintains a database of cameras with an entry for how much each ca…

I’ve recently been experimenting with this board, which looks to be quite similar (Allwinner H5): https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&... Overall it’s an im…

Whilst it can be somewhat subjective, and different styles of photography will benefit different amounts from exotic gear, it's surprisingly complex even in fairly narrow domains. …

As for camera makers releasing SDKs, there’s a few, though I’ve found them to be unimpressive (binary only blobs for Windows, etc). However more interesting to me are cameras that …

This is very well put. Much more insightful than my glib comments below. Thanks dude!

It's totally about laziness! But that's what computers are all about -- I could store printed versions of all of my documents in a filing cabinet, and go and manually sort them eve…

So, I will say that I bundled documentation and "openness" into one box, which I probably shouldn't have. The connection is that absented of the "openness" we were really looking f…

Don't know on the first one, but you can use ctrl + cursor keys to move between spaces. Fairly sure that's the default, but if not, it can be setup in preferences for Spaces.

I'll make just one refutation to this: I am not a Java programmer :) I had to learn Java specifically for this project. Python is my preferred hammer for most nails, but not an opt…

QEMU is a truly awesome piece of code. Everything Fabrice Bellard does is incredible. You could well be right that they're not using it correctly -- that sounds entirely plausible.…

The inception link was just a bit of fun :) Thanks for your comments, and the typo in that first sentence was pretty bad. Sorry about that. I've ceded the grammatical highground fo…

Oh, forgot to mention: I've been running Ubuntu on it exclusively for the last few years. Suspend and resume has been flakey in some releases of Ubuntu, ok in others (I've given up…

I love my Thinkpad. It's had all sorts of tortuous treatment and just keeps on ticking. It was kind of amazing the first time I spilt water on it to have it drain out through the h…
