The repetition in the last sentence and use of "Overall". The structure of the first paragraph too.

I appreciate this may not have been the case (sorry OP), which is why I asked the above question.

Would you explain why this makes you proud?

I assume as the kid is showing a good grasp on identifying his emotions.

Am I understanding this correctly: you let your 3-5 year old daughter stay up each night to 02:00?

When did the sun set where you lived during that time? I suppose that was a big influence on sleep times?

One approach you could take is to license the code (or simply the tricks) to big tech companies. They can use the tricks, but must pay you x amount. You can provide technical support for implementation and benchmarking.

That's how I would make profit from what you're doing as many big tech companies have already achieved (and more) of what you claim.

I know this as I work in such a company. However, I'd bet they'd pay a fair amount for new solutions that differ from their own.

I'm not OP, but the answer is obviously both. Multilingual helps brain develop in new ways, and better personal development helps all nations.

Why did lists require less memory? Was it because you only held a subset of keys in the lists?

I assume it's the mobile version of the website so probably has slightly different stylesheets.

GPU acceleration may produce worse quality and slightly larger files. So there's a trade-off to be had.

Exactly as some encoders (H264) have keyframes at intervals (e.g., every 30 frames) rather than where the action occurs.

As such, they are suboptimal by default if a lot of motion occurs.

Why not run it on your main OS? Otherwise, Docker is fine.

You're right - not ideal to manually transfer. Maybe iCloud will offer transcoding as a service next haha.

Many smartphones support recording H.265 encoded video directly and the resulting file size is tiny and quality is amazing. Not sure if it's the default setting (or possible) on iPhones though.

Why not transcode the data after use to significantly reduce filesize? If the videos are uploaded elsewhere (e.g., YT) they're most certainly transcoded on such services anyway

My point was that I have never heard anyone describe a server or serverless in that way: as simply a process. I agree that thinking about server as a process/Daemon is a great way to frame serverless.

I've also not considered that wireless headphones have wires so it's been fun to think about that too.

Why are you defining server in that way? Do you have a reference?

A server is a physical machine with an operating system. It can run many processes.
