How many images does your app typically need to avoid overfitting?

Most people probably don't even refer to the macOS versions by number but by codename.

I'm on a 2012 MBP with similar experiences. Every year I think about finally replacing it, but hold off on it because everything still works fine apart from some increased fan nois…

That will make you a 10x developer today but a 0.01x developer when shit hits the fan.

It's basically a Pi, a buck regulator, a tiny COB USB audio interface and an SSD1306-based 128x32 display. Removed all connectors and replaced them with soldered wires so it packs …

I built a guitar stomp box using a Raspberry Pi Zero to trigger samples with a foot switch. Runs on 9 volts and has a very bright OLED display so I can still see what it's doing wh…

Looks decent. I would suggest adding more tunings for us metal players that play lower tunings (for example, I play 2 whole steps down)

That's more keystrokes. ;)

Not really a trick of Vim itself, but when using Vim from the terminal I find ctrl-z very useful to background Vim, type in a few shell commands for git or whatever and then use "f…

That's great, now I need a middle name. Any good suggestions?

Well, please enlighten us then!

Looks fine to me. What's wrong about that syntax?

Yes, that works. However, you would be facing the same problems. You can read out the pressure of a touch but the initial pressure is not the strongest since the finger is still in…

Exactly. The general idea is that you get a measurement of the applied force, so integrating that value gives you an approximate velocity.

3D touch is not supported on all devices unfortunately.

The accuracy is a trade-off between latency and precision. The touch event arrives as soon as you touch the screen, but the actual force of your touch still needs a few millisecond…

I have been using React Native for a year now on a large project and came to the same conclusion. I find using Redux can quickly lead to over-engineered software. As goes with ever…

Most music is mixed not to have any useful spectral information below that frequency anyway. And if you want beat then a better thing you can do is look at the half-wave rectified …

Pretty boring if it's just FFT based. I'd love to see music visualizations make use of more sophisticated musical feature detection, like polyphonic note recognition or tempo/rhyth…

I wonder if it's possible to use some kind of translator, like Apple did with Rosetta to run PowerPC code on x86. This is of course not interesting for the Surface but it might be …

Don't forget there's also Xcode's built-in view debugger. Very useful tool!

A while ago I read about the DMZ between North/South Korea being a place where endangered species thrive again.

No, such a claim would be complete nonsense. We are using a local database as a mirror for offline use, which is a key requirement. Profiling (a forgotten art nowadays) shows that …
