Absolutely deranged

Or Grok just has just spent too much time on Twitter.

What problem is it aiming to solve (that the file name doesn't already solve)?

Just like a psychological diagnosis is often based on proximity to a cluster of symptoms rather than specific ones that must be met, you can't point to one particular line that mak…

Am I missing something or does the article fail to explain the point of Arrow’s Theorem? Is it satisfied for the discrete case, provably impossible, or what? > While this applies t…

Dumb question, but why don’t they just use a single more highly-curved mirror rather than a series of 3 bounces?

PDF sounds like a terrible format for reading on the kindle, why not MOBI or epub or whatever it uses?

I don’t think it is. What you describe is similar to any other industry disruption, and I don’t think those are unethical. I’d actually argue that preventing disruption is often (n…

Waiting for someone to explain to me why this is hyperbole and bluster.

Zsh has a better builtin solution. hash -d x=/path/to/x Then you can cd to there with just ~x And use it in commands like ls ~x/whatever/

With all due respect, I think you're wildly out of touch with how most people use "phones" these days. Actual calls probably represent about 5% of my phone use. The term "phone" is…

Why don’t you just keep it with the Pi?

“Siri, what’s 9am Pacific Time?” > gives me the current date. “Siri, what’s 9am Pacific Time in my local time zone?” > gives me the current time. I could go on…

Those things are bad because the people involved are not able to consent. The journalists and techies working for band camp entered into voluntary contracts that they can leave at …

Like growth needs to continue because just maintaining value is not acceptable for shareholders, maybe the problem is that the founders/sellers need a big payday because just havin…

Yes. That’s a problem to sort out between the employees and the company, it has nothing do to with users or customers. As a user I’m not going to pretend I know any of the relevant…

What’s your app?

I think this is just wrong. I don’t want “the same bitrate as ProRes”, I just want higher bitrate HEVC. For example YouTube has recently added a “high bitrate 1080p” option, which …

If you don’t have any constructive input why reply?

My main use case is family/holiday videos. Saving massive pro-res files would fill up the space quickly and I’m not sure how to process them into HEVC quickly and simply.

I don’t think the sensor is the limiting factor for me. I am happy with the photo quality on the 15 pro. It’s the video compression. Or maybe the speed at which the sensor can offl…

I don’t really have anything to compare it to as I have never used a proper video camera. So I’m just comparing it to the average YouTube video quality I guess. The main problem th…

I am consistently disappointed with the iPhone’s video quality. It looks like the bitrate is simply too low, either to keep file size down or because the phone can’t encode 4K that…
