Just tried it on some random GoPro footage and was very impressed! First - by the quality of stabilization. It is if not better then at the same level as in Gopro itself (which is considered having best e-stabilisation on the market). And second, that now I can shoot with disabled stabilization and choose amount of crop in post. I know that Sony offers similar thing with Catalyst Browse, but it is very unconvenient to use additional application to render stabilized footage, here I can just use plugin for Davinci and have seamless workflow.

I saw arguments against ORMs a lot of times, but what about the opposite - you might not need raw SQL and ORM might work just fine?

No, I'd rather spend my time doing something useful than looking for replacements for words.

But wait, OCaml is not just a functional language, even the "O" in its name stands for "Objective".

For almost as long as I've been programming, I find Ocaml a fantastic language, which just lacked some development tools and improved concurrency. I still believe that under the right circumstances it could become a mainstream language.

And I want IPad Mini-sized Android tablet, but for some reason all compact tablets have terrible performance, and because of this you have to use a large phone to watch videos or play games.

"You can't dedicate something to the public domain in my country" - that's the whole point of Unlicense. Yes, I can do it, in my country, in your country, in any other country, and even on Mars. And I don't need an approval of any authority to be able to do it. The problem is not that I can't do it, the problem is that countries refuse to acknowledge that fact.

In the License section I write this text - "Public domain, see the LICENCE file.", and in the text of the license itself the word "unlicense" is also nowhere used.

I use it and will continue to use it because it most accurately reflects my intentions for my software. If some organization can't comply with it, it's worse for them. They should change, not me.

People fear being jailed, tortured and having their lives ruined by its own government much more than any consequences of economic sanctions.

For me it looks like all of those banking / swift sanctions will mostly affect regular russian people and small businesses, who will not be able to work with foreign markets. Russian goverment will continue to trade oil and gas like nothing happenned, and will find way to trade other goods through non-Western countries like China. And sanctions regarding high-tech export will take many many months to have an effect. Honestly, it looks like western countries try to decieve people, that they are actively helping to solve this situation, but actually want to leave everything as it is.

Same reason there is almost no phones with clean android - manufacturers focus on marketing and follow easiest path, instead of really caring about users needs.

Also, the 3090 costs almost like the whole macbook

Obviously, it's great that we get tools that provides such improvements, but somehow I feel that JS should not be that slow. I expect it to be about 3 to 5 times slower than lower-level languages, but when the difference exceeds 10 times, it means that the Babel's code is not written very efficiently. Another thing, is that usually you only need to optimize a few critical places, and that will give the biggest improvement. So I wonder if it is possible to optimize or rewrite some parts of Babel into a faster language, but keep all of its extensibility and ecosystem. Maybe projects like esbuild or swc will provide insights for Babels' team.
