I want to ride a bike really bad, but cars have killed more cyclists in my city year over year my entire life.

It's just simply terrifying out there when a douche in an Escalade is in a hurry.

There's three different arm positions in a single picture. That doesn't happen in the blink of an eye.

The camera is taking many frames over a relatively long time to do this.

This is nothing at all like rolling shutter, and it's very obvious from looking at the example in the article.

Did you look at the example in the article? It's clearly not milliseconds. It's several whole seconds.

I don't think that's what's happening. I think Apple is "filming" over the course of the seconds you have the camera open, and uses the press of the shutter button to select a specific shit from the hundreds of frames that have been taken as video. Then, some algorithm appears to be assembling different portions of those shots into one "best" shot.

It's not just a mechanical shutter effect.

10 years ago, I started dating a girl and her cat licked my hair. We got married and have lots of cats together.

30? I wish! It's more like 60+ for one of their EVs.

All my colleagues who left faang companies to go to startups with big offers (and better titles) have lost out massively on comp becauss VC dried up and rsus are worthless.

One guy lost 90% of his rsu value. Another guy got straight up laid off. A third person I know lost about 75% of their offer in stock price declines in early 2023.

I agree that it's often exciting (and easy) to be exceptional at a smaller company, but in my experience it's almost never financially beneficial.

I fully agree with your sentiment.

But the frustrating reality that Amazon is exploiting is almost no other companies pay as much as Amazon and allow full remote work. Even less if you're one of the thousands of people on a work visa.

This would have been 30x funnier without the caption and... Laughing guy?

Easier said than done for a lot of folks. Online shopping put a lot of malls and other stores out of business. Good luck finding clothes anywhere but Walmart and the Internet.

Generally not being interested in $60 AAA games makes it so much more fun to peruse new games and experiment.

What are some decent scooter brands and models to look out for? There's so much shovelware crap out there to sort through.

Threatening to shoot people for being rude is psychotically unhinged behavior dude.

Sometimes yes sometimes no. It can really screw with the texture of some cheeses. Other cheeses last months without being frozen.

Goat cheese is pretty loose and grainy, so freezing doesn't affect it much.

Costco sells big portions of chevre for a lot less money than grocery stores. It freezes well too so don't have to rush to eat it.

Yeah, absolutely.

Yeah no doubt. Not saying there's no reason to be on the apps in college. I'm just saying there's less and less opportunity for meeting people in person by chance at social events the older you get, and the more your social life includes people from work, married folks, parents, etc.

College is the densest pool of single people with lots of free time you'll ever experience bar none.

College is perhaps the easiest time of your life to meet people irl and find a date or two or twenty. No surprise whatsoever that the apps are more regularly used by people who aren't in a 24/7 social mixer event with thousands of people their same age, education level, and (generally) class.

Right on red is most definitely optional. No need to be "predictable" in this situation - you're coming to a full stop no matter what. How is not moving again unpredictable?
