A few times in my career I've been looking for exactly this role, a place that would value sense and design/ux sensibility as well as an understanding of what is technically possible. Larger companies don't hire for this role

You can calibrate your gut feeling, though. You do it, every day, as you go through life. You get a gut feeling that a specific person might be difficult, and you can override it consciously. But I often find that the “gut” feeling is more

Honestly, my gut is much less welcoming to the idea of me visiting McDonalds than my mouth. My gut says “I will feel bad”, my mouth screams “tastebuds demand an experience!”

After having worked with Latour (for two years, on his last exhibition and my artistic research), I got the feeling that he is much more a speaking philosopher, rather than a writing one. I found his speeches easier to grok and, once I star

In early photography history there was a pictorialist movement where people used special sort focus lenses to introduce more of a painterly quality. These lenses, such as Rodenstock Imagon still exist and are sought after.

Indeed, it is after all more of a mechanical extraction than a chemical one. I remember seeing tiny bits of grass floating in the tincture after extracting the scent of fresh grass - the cavitation bubbles practically shattered the cell str

I'll repeat my comment from the previous discussion, as ultrasound can be used to extract many things quickly: Alternatively you could use a (quite affordable) ultrasonic machine designed for gentle cleaning of jewelry, dentures, glass

I agree, and in some countries it does feel like your children get 'institutionalized'. Still, even there, there are differences between schools. What my parents did was to visit the schools, talk to the teachers, see whether they

From my experience with attending four schools in two countries - it is often the quality and the personality of the teacher that influences what I was learning, not so much the curriculum. I see very little chance for radical thought being

You might consider alternative schools like Waldorf or Montessori for your kids. It's not like there is only one kind of school available.

Why would that be considered a flaw? The rationale behind it is the same as behind the inability to name your child XAe or any random assortment of letters – to not make the future difficult for your child, even if you as a parent might wan

A pro photographer friend of mine stopped using Tilt/Shift lenses for architecture, he says the image quality is noticeably better if you correct the perspective in photoshop/lightroom afterwards.

Theoretically, it should be possible to create images from a static video feed that have higher resolution than the video. Also, it would be interesting to see if an upscaling model can de trained on a specific high-res image (taken e.g. wi

Looks great! Just last week I tried to use Calibre again and fell into the black hole that is its UI.. Thought of donating some UI/UX work but felt like that would be a multi-year project. Perhaps I could support you with UI/UX in

In Firefox's about:config switch dom.event.contextmenu.enabled to false to always allow right click. Though it is a bit unnerving on sites with custom right click menus, like discord or google docs.
