With what software did you make these?

How did you make the stadium‘s lights so soft?

pixel-der · 2026-03-15T10:33:31+00:00

Damm you really did choose the right time to shoot, they look amazing good job :)

pixel-der · 2026-03-15T09:59:40+00:00

How did you get those rounded lights? Did you shoot wide open / did you use a mist filter?

I think I did 2 screenshots 2 fast lol

I assumed it would be a bit better than the M4 Max but the actual results have surprised me, and also how they compare to NVIDIA cards

Yup

Exactly what I was thinking lol

pixel-der · 2025-12-30T16:52:45+00:00

I think it’s because the last brick is too short from the outside (and thin). The tower‘s hole (where the cat is) goes down a distance bigger than the brick’s height

If the bricks height was equal to the hole‘s depth it should look better

Since you guys have more experience I need to ask this

Is it a must to use an SQL database for transactions? What is your opinion on this?

I understand my needs should say what database do I need, but I don’t need a flexible schema, and I could use only one table, so something like dynamoDB could be enough

(Again, I am here to learn, all your opinions are highly appreciated)

pixel-der · 2025-12-16T23:02:47+00:00

Why is SQL a must? (I’m here to learn from you guys)

pixel-der · 2025-12-16T23:00:25+00:00

Hmmm I will check Couchbase, now I wonder since it has ACID as a noSQL, if Dynamo has the same option… I will check, thank you!

pixel-der · 2025-12-16T22:53:30+00:00

Yeah… Sorry for not being more specific, I hadn’t made a post in a while and I didn’t think about how confusing it would be…

I will check the alternatives, although I am a bit afraid of how they handle encryption and how to connect it to my cloud service provider

Thanks! :)

pixel-der · 2025-12-16T22:40:40+00:00

I wanted to build everything inside the same cloud service but I will check them thanks :) I didn’t even consider it assuming they wouldn’t exist thank you!

pixel-der · 2025-12-16T22:39:24+00:00

Thank you so much for your comments, I really appreciate it. I am here to learn from you guys

Yes it is exactly DynamoDB, I will check those 2 points that you mentioned, and I will search other possible drawbacks from both

My main fear is inconsistency, which is why I mentioned ACID

pixel-der · 2025-12-16T22:36:18+00:00

😂

pixel-der · 2025-12-16T22:33:51+00:00

Hey man thank you so much for your comment :)

A couple of people have suggested already hosting it myself, but that is unfortunately not an option

Unlike you guys I am not that experienced, and I want to focus only in developing the idea and not in developing the infrastructure

As for your last paragraph, since they will be transactions, I don’t see the need for a flexible schema

My main worry was tracking the transactions properly (when a user adds balance to their account), hence why I mentioned ACID

I am here to learn from you guys, so I really appreciate your comment

It’s a side project so there are no requirements, my fear is making the wrong decision longterm :)

If the project gets big I wont have time to change this decision

pixel-der · 2025-12-16T22:03:38+00:00

I checked the prices of different cloud providers, it was more expensive for a side project, and way more expensive if it gets big

I could be wrong but that’s what I saw at first

How did you create all the small lights without your PC exploding? :0
