Yes, correct, there’s a feature for that. Unfortunately one of the audio channels from the camera footage on the motorcycle is never good enough for this feature to work for me.

I make motorcycle travel videos for YouTube, and the bulk of where my time goes in the preparation of a timeline: chronologically cutting the highlights, synchronising dual camera footage. If Claude + Davinci Resolve will enable me to cut t

It seems almost as if the car manufacturers don’t have guardrails in place to check for the implications of any software design change. I agree with you here… It’s frustrating.

That’s another good step. I wrote about this last week < https://www.maxvanijsselmuiden.nl/blog/touch-screens-everywh... >. Touch screens are an unsuitable form of interaction because of the implicit requirement t

I suppose Figma is a good tool for that as well! Glad to hear a positive response to the interaction!

I see why this response came to be, but I just wanted to briefly annotate that this was not my intended point at all. I'm not obsessed with being productive at all, it's just something that has been on my mind - and I'm inter

Glad you liked the graphs. They're my favourite part. I looked into The Now Habit, and added it to my reading list. Great addition, thanks! Trying to rephrase 'I have to' to 'I choose to' is already something I try,

You're right, in my initial draft, I also took a side-step into figuring out the obligation aspect, but this ended up scattering the article too much. It's definitely a related part of it, the same tasks I love will become a chore

It’s meant to be a fun reference to Figma, since it’s my design portfolio. I gather you’re not a fan. Noted!

Yeah, sorry about that. Not really made for many visitors at the same time. I’ll add a limit. (update: removed the cursor interaction from blog posts)

I absolutely loved reading this, bring back memories. I was that kid too.

TL;DR: I didn't achieve my goal, but I did spark an interest in books! The article contains some book recommendations.

I’m not even into math, but I enjoyed reading this very much. Kudos to the author!

It can be disabled (or at least tuned down) via accessibility settings.

I wrote about this topic earlier, I believe there is one main reason for Apple to go in this direction: universal design language (spatial computing, Vision Pro). Of course, there can be many side-effects (or reasons) that can be the actual

Yes, I've been on all the public beta's so far and yes, you can turn it down. You can turn on 'reduce transparency' in the accessibility settings. It breaks most of the effects, but text is definitely more legible. Haven

I stumbled upon a lecture by Josh Tenenbaum (MIT) yesterday. Starting from minute 19 he talks about world models, and how we're nowhere near 'real AI'. This lecture was from 7 years ago, I wonder what a more recent take from

The widespread trust in AI chatbots as all-knowing oracles is a dangerous misunderstanding of what they actually are. Large Language Models are sophisticated pattern-matching tools, not truth machines, a critical distinction defining how we

Ah, yeah, the irony. I've used Figma Sites to renew my website. Quite buggy. Any chance you could tell me what browser/configuration you were using? Perhaps I can fix this.

The tech industry's rush to cram AI into every product is making software worse and more expensive, forcing users to pay for features they don't want or need. From AI buttons on mice to mandatory chatbots in browsers, these integr
