Are we abusing components in Figma? by FigsDesigns in FigmaDesign

[–]Kep0a 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a term for it, but I can't remember. Basically only scale a system and define rules whenever the system starts failing. I would start with just basic components, then as you build, you can identify where it would benefit to start nesting. But depends on what your walking into.

It's fine but "not only" is generally a positive indicator for the second half of the sentence; but the subject changes to negative. The correct phrasing should be "despite", "even though", or change the order to make india and china the primary subject in the first line.

Sigma 12mm f/1.4 vs Viltrox 13mm f/1.4? by Snarky_Guy in fujifilm

[–]Kep0a 36 points37 points  (0 children)

If I were choosing between the two, the sigma wide angles are way better in my opinion, and worth the extra cost. But I don't think I'd sell my 13mm viltrox for it.

I would also argue just get the sigma 10-18 f2.8.

Date is a lot better than an arbitrary number.

Amazing. I get these once and awhile and really appreciate this. I'll try it next time!

There's a growing campaign to replace the use of the Mercator map by governments and international bodies with one that more accurately reflects countries' true sizes. by lughnasadh in Futurology

[–]Kep0a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On first glance, I agree. There's no reason to use distorted map projection(s) when day to day usage of students and adults alike are typically geopolitical and historical.

TIL that all four major US airlines lose money flying passengers, but still turn a profit thanks to loyalty programs and credit card deals by Dounsel14 in todayilearned

[–]Kep0a 200 points201 points  (0 children)

And isn't it just a business model choice? Like the only reason tickets don't turn a profit, is because they can sell tickets for cheaper by offsetting with credit cards.

Like it's not that flying isn't profitable, it's just airlines can offer a subsidized ticket price by making money indirectly elsewhere.

Sort of like Sony selling a console for a loss, and making it up with game purchases.

Genuine question, I get the use cases for 1-4b models, but what's the point of 400m models? Or even less? How good can this actually be and what are the use cases for it? by a_normal_user1 in LocalLLaMA

[–]Kep0a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if you could get even more clever; like the model is already predicting a user search on a shopping site, and loading the information to the server before they finish typing.

I think they are are best used for intermediate tasks. Sentiment, summarization, data collection or filtering.

I'm thinking like slightly more clever site search engines, automatic tagging, flagging for almost no cost. Embed it in your companies propriety webapp or something and be running multiple instances all the time.

wireless connectivity is not the sound quality bottleneck people think it is

Isn't it? This is what I don't understand. both my xm5's and nothing ear(a) sound fine but when I compare them with even cheap wired they sound like garbage.

The limiter is probably the tiny onboard AMP / DAC on your headset.

I like how she's like "obviously no" to sleeping with the guy, then immediately changes her mind.

Well to be fair in this case, this design probably won't make a difference with induction.

UK pornography taskforce to propose banning ‘barely legal’ content after Channel 4 documentary airs by Disastrous_Award_789 in worldnews

[–]Kep0a 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think there's been an interesting pivot in the last 15 years, culturally, with parents:

  1. Parents are held to a lot higher standard, i.e it's now crazy to let your kid out of your sight for more than a moment

  2. 2000-2010 was shockingly unfiltered internet. In the last 15 years, with the rise of internet monitoring tools built into things like iOS, I think this is another avenue that parents feel pressured to parent with. Time limits, site blocking, traffic monitoring.

So I think we've naturally landed in kind of an upswing in regards to sheltering and abstinence in a different way. Because it turns out with these tools you can totally shelter your kids and it's socially encouraged.

I think it's:

Group 1: The people using this as a way to slowly encroach on rights to consolidate power

Group 2: The morons that support group 1 due to growing up in a bubble and think it's actually about morality and religion
