How many images does your app typically need to avoid overfitting?

Most people probably don't even refer to the macOS versions by number but by codename.

I'm on a 2012 MBP with similar experiences. Every year I think about finally replacing it, but hold off on it because everything still works fine apart from some increased fan noise and reduced battery capacity (which doesn't concern me too much). If you treat your laptop with care it really does last a long time.

At some point I expect I will stop getting MacOS updates which will force me to upgrade to a newer model.

That will make you a 10x developer today but a 0.01x developer when shit hits the fan.

It's basically a Pi, a buck regulator, a tiny COB USB audio interface and an SSD1306-based 128x32 display. Removed all connectors and replaced them with soldered wires so it packs neatly into a tiny box.

The software is all custom and written in C, using Jack for low latency audio and my own driver for the display (Adafruit makes a Python driver but it eats half of your CPU and is not optimized for i2c bandwidth or high framerates).

I built a guitar stomp box using a Raspberry Pi Zero to trigger samples with a foot switch. Runs on 9 volts and has a very bright OLED display so I can still see what it's doing when I'm playing in a dark venue.

Looks decent. I would suggest adding more tunings for us metal players that play lower tunings (for example, I play 2 whole steps down)

That's more keystrokes. ;)

Not really a trick of Vim itself, but when using Vim from the terminal I find ctrl-z very useful to background Vim, type in a few shell commands for git or whatever and then use "fg" to hop back into Vim.

That's great, now I need a middle name. Any good suggestions?

Well, please enlighten us then!

Looks fine to me. What's wrong about that syntax?

Yes, that works. However, you would be facing the same problems. You can read out the pressure of a touch but the initial pressure is not the strongest since the finger is still in motion. Additionally, 3D touch is not supported on all devices.

Another interesting thing is that there are also private APIs for reading out the estimated finger size of a touch. This can give you even more information to determine the velocity from, as light touches are usually done with the fingertips.

Exactly. The general idea is that you get a measurement of the applied force, so integrating that value gives you an approximate velocity.
