pragmatick

That's a weirdly minimalistic site. I mean it's nice that the front page is exactly what you want to see but I wish the About page would show some more information about the what the site can do, some examples, technology bits etc.

I may use my personal computer (not a laptop) for work when working from home. I live in germany and signed an agreement that I follow certain security standards. All work data is on a fully encrypted drive, the computer is locked when not used, AV is up-to-date.

I would not want to use my work laptop because my own PC is so much faster and already connected to my screens so I don't have to use a KVM and can use all the tools and hotkeys I'm used to without having to synchronize settings.

Whenever I have to use my work laptop I want to cry because it's so slow. But I do acknowledge that it's a risk for the company and am actually surprised they allow it at all.

https://github.com/RamboRogers/rfhunter/blob/master/rfhunter... contains amazon links. About $100 although many of the required components come as packs.

It should at least stop autoswitching after you pressed a button. I clicked back and it instantly moved forward to the next picture again.

Not available where I live.

Unfortunately kafka, for example, has not: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-kafka/commit/ae775...

Hey now, I'm 42 and like some LitRPG / progression fantasy (only read Dungeon Crawler Carl, Mother of Learning and Cradle, though).

Why wouldn't they get paid? You download the whole episode, it's not different than downloading it to your phone. They don't know if you listened to the ad any more than if listening via an app without this step inbetween.

Yes and you wouldn't believe how bad they are. We had multiple incidents where colleagues had to explain basic stuff to them and hold their hands. I was in a couple of calls with their engineers and those instantly reduced my impostorship syndrome.

Just "bought" access to the trial in Germany.

I agree, mostly. I'm hugely thankful for their license of the whole product line for my OS project.

But I also recently paid for a month of AI assistant of which I could only use it for a couple of days because of a bug in the authorization process. They make a lot of UI changes, many of which are at least questionable and completely throw off my workflow, and prioritize fancy new features instead of fixing bugs that are sometimes ten years old.

Good point, but https://www.producthunt.com/@james/reviews didn't review this.

If only they suggested more than the same three or five songs by bands.

I'm on the other side of the scale, I don't want to know anything about a book or movie. I often don't even look at the posters, never mind trailers. I just need the genre of a book and to know if it's good.

The reason is just that I want to go in surprised. Very often I've read books or watched movies that I probably wouldn't've because I thought "that story is dumb" or "that setting isn't for me". I don't want to read a book and think "When do we get there?". I've even disabled the progress display on my Kindle because I don't want to know if what I'm currently reading is still set-up or the grand finale. If I know a thriller has 100 pages left when the murder has been found I know that something is still going to happen and that affects how I read the rest.

It may have to do with how much you like being surprised and why you read a book. If it's for the prose then the surprise doesn't matter. If you enjoy a story well told then the surprise doesn't matter. But I like being surprised and going into it without any bias and as little prior knowledge as possible.

The Windows 11 Snipping Tool apparently has OCR as well.

The page is impossible to zoom. In my firefox the view doesn't change at all when I zoom out or in and on Chrome it only changes minimally.

Same here. From germany, if that makes any difference.

Off topic but the weird ligature in "especially" really threw me off. Strange choice.

"Normal" SEPA isn't instant either. You need SEPA Instant Payments for that and many banks don't support that yet although an EU directive is supposed to make it mandatory to at least be able to receive them, I think.

I think your comment is missing some context.

This is the most blatant case of false advertising since my suit against the movie The Neverending Story.

I only looked over your code for a minute but found some stuff I would comment on in a code review.

Comment for a method says "null safe" - why not use an annotation?

A package called "util" is a code smell for me.

UrlUtils only provides two methods for URL encoding so why not name it appropriately?

Unexpected but great reference. Wouldn't've thought of it but you're right.

Hi Jacobi. I love the content but the design is too busy for me. I can't concentrate on one clip because the others distract me. How about allowing to switch to a style where only one clip is shown and I can scroll down to see more? I wouldn't want to click to advance (like it is now when I zoom in on a clip), just endless scroll like you did it with one clip on the screen at any time.

Also, is https://eycndy.com/crab-shot?itemId=cxns025fad8r33ene8rmxxnw... actually a trucking / crab shot? For me it's just a pan.

They already changed the Billy at some point. My mother has a really old one (80s or 90s, I think) and we bought doors for it and they wouldn't fit. Turns out the "new" Billys are 2cm or so wider. We could install the doors but there would be a 2cm gap in the middle. Tried it with a Billy bought later and it fit.

Creating the actions may be easier but parsing / understanding them will often be easier in any format that prose / plain text. I'd rather have a UI with a list of steps and colors and what not than a text I have to read.

Take for example the list of steps in the project. They contain a lot of redundant information I have to mentally ignore.

What's lex.page? The landing page doesn't give any information, just requires me to login using Google.

I also didn't find it very helpful. It would constantly suggest code that didn't even compile, e.g. suggest calling setters for fields that weren't there. I spent so much time reading the suggestions or deleting them after using them and finding out they were bullshit that I didn't save any time at all.

This has been my go-to source for reviews and user opinions on cameras for 20 years. This really sucks. I hope they find some other site where they can at least continue the forums.
