It's a good article, but I think you could sum it up neatly by saying "photographic masses search for photographic rules, come up empty." I've been doing amateur/hobbyist photography, as I suspect many here have as…
The site is a bit more enjoyable imho once you realize that even the satire is self-reflecting satire. (And checking html for comments in 2024? We've forgotten more than we ever knew.) On a more serious note, it pains…
I highly recommend doing this. I also highly recommend not doing it digitally. I recently came across an email I'd sent to myself a decade ago. It was a serendipitous find and could've easily been lost for all time…
Great point, I wish I'd mentioned it. The expense of the printf dwarfs the log / log (double divided by a double then cast to an int), which itself is greater than some repeated comparisons in a for loop. It's key to be…
Processors are inherently awesome at branching, adding, adding, shifting, etc. And shifting to get powers of 2 (i.e., KB vs. GB) is a superpower of its own. They're a little less awesome when it comes to math.pow(),…
Ahhh fonts, where everyone gets an opinion and they're all super important. If you're designing a font not just for legibility, but primarily for safety, then it seems extremely important that each glyph is uniquely…
It's a nice little tip, although I have to question any article that claims task manager items are "randomly moving around." FWIW I always assumed anyone who really cared about this stuff was using Sysinternals's…

That was one of the ostensible reasons, although the real driver likely had more to do with commercial than technical reasons. There were probably some AOL types who accidentally opened toolbars and couldn't figure out…
> “That means we have the real Christmas snow.” Well, maybe, but not likely. They have the snow from a well-intended but arbitrary chronological switchover. Now if they have snow from 6 - 4 BCE[1], then it's likely they…
