My musical tastes have changed a lot, I've found new bands and artists pretty much every year of my life. I listen to music from my teenage years now & then, but more often than not I'm listening to completely new music.
So Amazon-owned Twitch makes huge job cuts, they cut jobs in Prime video, introduce ads for prime video users, all within the last few weeks? Is something wrong with Amazon's financials that they're taking more drastic measures?
This is definitely the easier way to understand it. Imagine a point in the centre of the circle that is traveling. Draw the line that point takes, and then calculate using the new circle.
They're pretty essential for any situation where you can't just stop down the exposure in the camera. If you want a long exposure shot of some crashing waves on a bright day for instance, you might not be able to just increase the shutter speed or narrow the aperture without ruining the intended photo.
>How do you write the time? Do you put seconds or minutes before hours? Why not?
No, because the seconds are rarely important.
>How do you write the year? Do you put decade before century?
No, because that's not how numbers work.
>How do you write numbers? Do you put the ones place before the tens?
Same answer.
>Toddmorey asked why units don’t go from small to large and I explained that it is inconsistent with how we write numbers.
Dates aren't numbers. There is a lot more context and meaning around dates that we need to consider when we verbalise and write them. But, for the purposes of e.g. data storage then absolutely - we can consider them no different from numbers. You have to understand that isn't the case with conversational English, though.
Yeah, and that's great for storing things in databases. Not for everyday communication. We talk in terms of most relevant to least relevant - the day (or time) is typically most relevant, with the year being least.
Turning something you do for fun into something you do to survive has always been a great way to sap the enjoyment out of it.
I've been told numerous times over the years to turn my photography into a business. Or my baking. Or my cooking. Or to start music tuition. I can't think of anything I'd hate more.
>I think the next bottleneck is likely to be software longevity.
My girlfriend recently dropped (and broke) her iPhone X. She then bought a used Galaxy S9. The S9 is a few months older than the iPhone X.
Despite that, the app for our home alarm is not supported on her S9, because for some unknown reason it requires Android 11+, and the S9 only supports up to Android 10.
Is that so bad? The other way of looking at it is that employers would be more likely to allow WFH, since they don't have to pay for your commute costs anymore
I don't want to go to an office, but I still am very social & go out all the time. This is the case for most people I know. In fact, if I didn't have to commute for 2 hours a day I'd have more time for social activities.
I'd also love to have some extra time to be able to go to the gym, but right now I'm getting home, cooking, eating, and suddenly it's past 9pm and I'm having to think about getting stuff ready for work the next day.
