I had some black and white photos of my passed-away tuxedo cat, fully expecting this to produce a terrible result, but instead I was blown away by accurate and subtle colors added. Pinkish nose, ears, green eyes all came out of the photo.

I know they came out with an LTE-enabled Forerunner 945 late in its cycle. I don’t know if they’ll add similar functionality to other models, but that’s one watch with that feature. Personally that device never interested me because: 1) if

Agreed. They say this is for explorers and adventure, but it seems like I’d be out of charge after the first segment of a backpacking trip. Need a map of an area for the return or the next day? Good luck.

No it doesn't? I'm on Chrome right now and cannot pop out vimeo videos. Youtube appears to have a "pseudo" pop-out that I suspect is their own js-driven miniplayer thing. Just a fancy change to the DOM. You can't re

My spouse (medicine) and several of my peers (journalism) have and they would disagree. Spouse has experienced both sides of the coin, and has seen better benefits and better pay in the unionized workplace than the non-unionized one. Very m

Ads create a twisted profit incentive that counters what Telegram wants to be, even if Telegram only pursues a privacy-friendly ads experience at first. Sell functionality, storage, customization, or digital assets. I know Discord doesn&#x2

So I like coding in linux too. I absolutely prefer it over anything else; but, lately my ubuntu distro has not been able to wake up from suspend so I force a reboot when I get back to my computer after a prolonged break. And I was pretty in

Full disclosure: I own about $11 worth of bitcoin if I round up a bit, so this might be biased. The most convincing "point" of bitcoin I've heard is to accomodate transfer of large sums of money across borders, quickly, with

That's like saying Amazon was actively helping hackers when your app allows anyone to log in when it can't connect to a passwords table in a shut down DynamoDB instance. Twilio shut down the account and Parler decided to pass all

I tried to spin up a repl.it session for the first time yesterday, with the intent to hack on clojure solutions to Advent of Code 2020. After a while I just got pretty frustrated battling the editor's default/only formatting setti

10-20 years ago places I lived and remembered being quite heavily snowy in the winter just get a bit of dusting at best now. New England has lost over 600 ski areas. There are fewer and fewer places with good enough conditions to grow coffe

clojuredocs[0] has some good examples. I more often use when-some or if-some over when-let or if-let, mainly because I'm processing over collections and I want to do something to the result only if the collection isn't empty (and

I’ve been wishing for dark mode for all 6 years I’ve had my MacBook Pro, so I’m pretty happy with that alone. I also have next to no qualms with OS X in its current state so I’m pretty easy to please. I will say that the hardware quality on

I switched from android to iOS about 2 years ago as well, and I see my spouse use android all the time. All those flows you speak highly of look like bloat and a barrage of buttons to me. There are notifications you can’t dismiss, and the n
