Also I did had some small travel plans this year for every second weekend, where I wanted take my Pentax SLR out or buy myself a Sony Rx100 if space in the backbag runs out. (Moved to next year.)
But now? I'm not sure.
Yes, the dslr with its bigger sensor would be better suited to get more details in each pic and would be a much easier tool to use. But, there aren't really visible on your averaged sized print. And as long my trip isn't focused on getting pictures of animals, I don't need more reach than the short-/portrait- tele lens from the phone already provides.
But I save myself massively on packing space, weight, theft prevention and stress.
And the last point I think is the biggest deal in the end. If I travel to relax, I don't want to focus on getting the best out of my equipment to justify bringing it. (Or worse have to listen to others unasked opinion about my equipment choices.) A phone does the job and gets out of the way.
Sending pics home from a dslr? I hope you got your notebook with you and 1-2 hours in your hotelroom. I'm already done on the phone...
Alternatively you can debloat an android with a desktop thanks to adb, when you don't want to unlock and reset your phone for a new rom.
There are already enough open source alternatives to replace Google software from android phones. Even some who replace Google play services for the apps that need it, while only having minimal contact with Google servers.
Especially with your needs it is really easy to go Google free on the phone you already own. In any other place I would think you just don't know better, but here it just sounds like an excuse.
Rohrer & Klingner dokumentus or sketch-ink
First one is certified document proof, the others work the same, just that the used pigments are not as hardened against chemicals to allow strict iso certification.
They are both fast at drying and once dry, won't give a inch to water. Not even coloring the water and marking the rest of the paper, where it flowed.
Uninteresting for most photograhic fields, because of the big and hefty equipment to a APS-C/FF system, but it could make sense for someone doing landscape or architecture. Those bigger lenses have less of a problem to keep the "resolution" high before it hits the sensor/film, that gives small things in big pictures more detail.
Greyscale works as syntax highlighting, you do can get used to it after time. But what greyscale does to you is that isn't that interesting to you anymore to look at the screen, so you do start get "bored" from it and the eye starts to wander around looking for something else perhaps pretty to look at. Nice if you want to look often enough out of the window, but annoying if you have work to do.
For at dark at night coding it isn't that bad. But having an AMOLED with the right colourscheme and low lightness setting is more pleasing I found.
I worked with Windows 10 WSL/WSL2 for a year now just to understand how one could setup windows as a good workspace for my colleges. And I do have to say even with the vastly more performant WSL2, docker is slow and annoying if you are used to Linux docker or xampp under windows.
I miss those things. Shame they killed BIS in my country, so those are mostly unusable today.
I think the best way to achieve it all again is to create a set of interlocking apps who help you get things done instead of wooing you with animations for android and create your own distro with those apps pre-setup based on CyanogenMod/LineageOS/etc. This way you can use existing hardware, gain productivity and still be able to access tge appstore for everything someone needs for their personal work flow, like the tan generator of your bank.
In my city, php is still in the top 3, too.
When I try to see my self in the shoes of a primary C dev, I wouldn't see Go as a concurrent to C, but more as a less annoying scripting language. Every time when I switch from a "typed" to an "untyped" language, I do need a longer time to "feel at home" again. Therefore I think Go could be good language for a C dev for small tasks on the site, like creating small cli tools for the buildchain or generally inhouse, things like that what one normally tends to look at python for. Go makes it easy to create a good cli interface, easy to document the format of a config file and writing a test. Deployment is also easy thanks to that is just a static blob that comes with everything that it needs. So no worrying about if the right interpreter is installed on that dev server, just copy it over with scp and it works.
Some audiences just don't care or even think about that. And that audience are the main targets of those companies.
Do really think, that the sneaker community really cares about trusting a reviewer, if all the company needs to say to raise the prices, is that they produce that colour in a limited run?
No, she implied it. And May isn't really known to keep her promises in the first place.
