I wouldn't trust oracle with a 6 user blog about the family dog, much less this...

I'm not sure that's a hot take outside early uni programmers.

What are those?

As someone who wants to use Kotlin or Scala, is there another way to get around these two? Coming from .NET or NPM I found both of these to be terrible.

I am unsure just how revolutionary this feature is, though I am definitely interested in trying it and can see it's value. I've somewhat gotten away from Jetbrains, but I do still use and promote Rider for C# development so this is potentially a nice addition for my professional life.

Is this something you want to run manually or automatically? If you want to run automatically either look into dotnet service workers, or run the console app with a crontab.

You can use https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/dotnet-publish to create an executable. Then you would just transfer the resultant files, or file if you publish as a single executable file.

Firstly, consider spending some time with your phone camera. There are apps that should allow you to manually adjust ISO and shutter speed. Most phones aren't going to have good RAW support or allow aperture adjustments, so you will need to focus on a specific set of things. Read or watch videos on artistic ideas like composition and color. When I was first getting interested in photography I did this for about 6 months just to be sure it actually held my interest long enough to justify spending money.

I would recommend reading this:

Personally I would pay attention to the Sony and Fujifilm lineups. If you need a bit more portability then also consider Lumix and Olympus/OM.

I would recommend avoiding the RF(Canon) line for beginners due to the limited and expensive lens selection. I say that as a Canon R6 owner.

  • C# primarily with some T-SQL and Typescript sprinkled in.
  • Trying to learn Rust and so far I'm really liking it. Also using Typescript on Deno is a super comfy experience, though advanced typescript kind of scares me.
  • More Rust mainly, but also Haskell and Ocaml. I tried F#, which is Ocaml inspired, and liked it but the C# interopt made me also kind of hate it too.
