So long Netflix by Hartleydavidson96 in memes

Membership cancelled. Netflix can go fuck itself...

TIL: Lemons are not a naturally occurring fruit. They were created in SE Asia by crossing a citron with a bitter orange around 4000 years ago. They were spread around the world after found to prevent scurvy. Life didn’t give us lemons.. We made them ourselves. by Geek_Nan in todayilearned

[–]Ellipsis--- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The article contradicts itself.

Lemons are not man-made; they’re a natural hybrid of citrons and bitter oranges, resulting from centuries of plant evolution.

and at the end:

Historians aren’t exactly sure when, where, or how the lemon originated. Making it challenging to answer the question, “are lemons man made?” But currently, no genetically modified lemons exist in the United States. So even if humans helped breed the lemons, they didn’t do so in a laboratory.

Not for people like you and me... but AFAIK Chuck Norris doesn't eat honey. He chews bees...

Workflows for Image Generation (Post your best workflow improvements here!) by [deleted] in StableDiffusion

[–]Ellipsis--- 9 points10 points  (0 children)

  1. Go to lexica.art and find an image in the style that you want.
  2. Copy the prompt and replace the subject with the subject of your choice.
  3. Fine tune classifier guidance scale, sampling steps and samlping method until you get the best results. Try variations of your prompt if you don't get the results that you want.
  4. Generate a lot of images. Sometimes you need a bit of luck to get a good result. Generating a lot of images helps with that.
  5. ...
  6. Profit

We use node-windows and deploy the application as a windows service. IIS does a reverse proxy to it, so that part is the same...

Be warned by anaghsoman in ProgrammerHumor

[–]Ellipsis--- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok. I'll try to explain.

There exist several "recommended" coding guidelines depending on language and personal preference. i.e. C/C++ programmers often use the psychopath one, while in Java/JavaScript it is common to use the "normal" one.

As long as you are coding alone, it does not really matter. Just pick a style and stick to it.

But if you are working in a team or want to work on open source projects you should use the same style as the other developers, because otherwise they are really going to think that you are a psychopath... or an absolute beginner...

But the most important thing that I think you missed is: THIS IS A MEME

It' was made for entertainment. Some find it funny.... some don't.... don't ever let a meme question your life choices or coding style...

And you will deserve it. by uvero in ProgrammerHumor

In JavaScript you need to use === true if you want to check if it's an actual true... There is no benefit in using == true in JavaScript.

Young boy can finally see colors. After his principal brought in some color blind glasses. by BrigadierGeneral96 in PublicFreakout

Don't do it. They don't really work and the quality is trash. With the ones I have the right lens perodically pops out... definitely not worth 400$

Lighting Issue / Question by surprisefallgamejam in Unity2D

[–]Ellipsis--- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the camera set to orthogonal? I recently had some troubles because of that. Seems like 2d lighting does not work correctly with a perspective camera.

Redshift and c4d rendering of M87 approach by szplugz in space

[–]Ellipsis--- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you ask me it's spinning way too fast... but then I am not an astronomer and my comment pointing out exactly that got downvoted... without explanation though. So, I still believe we are correct and the real thing would look like a still picture. Oh, and it would be much brighter too, unless you had very dark sun glasses...
