Bond's fascinating map of "The Routes of the Principal Explorers of the U.S. from 1501 to 1844" [3,515px × 2,368px] by bigmapblogin MapPorn

Thanks for the reply. I had good luck with this one in the past:

The small size and laggy panning are what bother me about zoom.it. Unfortunately, I think panojs is not as easy to set up.

I like the maps, but you guys should find a new zooming interface. That one is so bad that never stay on your site.

Whenever you see such a huge price difference, always check the reviews; one of them might be very poorly formatted.

Why are Macs considered 'Industry standard' by LOLiver88in Design

[–]sakabako 1 point2 points ago

Apple and Adobe also collaborated on the first affordable laser printer, Illustrator and Photoshop were initially only for the Mac, many early employees for both Adobe and the Mac came from Xerox PARC, the list of Adobe/Apple collaborations is very long.

Final Cut Pro X 10.0.3 restores professional features; adds notable new ones by dirtyfriesin apple

[–]sakabako 2 points3 points ago

Your point is very valid for new shops creating a new setup. But for existing shops already using FCP7, there was no reason to upgrade on the day FCPX came out. Those shops would also be foolish to panic and change their entire workflow to another vendor without carefully considering all their options and the direction those packages will be going.

Initial releases are garbage for all software. It doesn't matter if it's professional or amateur. In fact, amateur software probably has much better .0 releases than professional because it's simpler and has to work with far fewer third parties. This is especially true for complete rewrites, such as FCPX.

No professional shop upgrades the software on their primary workstations immediately, doing so would be far too dangerous. They install it on test machines and make sure everything works with their system before rolling out upgrades. If the upgrades don't work for them, they complain to the vendor and the vendor can either listen to them or ignore them.

rbnc's minimalist point is that you shouldn't panic and spend thousands of dollars changing software because a .0 release isn't up to snuff. You should keep using what you've been using until a more mature point release comes, then make your decision.

Initial releases are never perfect and rarely last long. Check the version numbers of all the software you use, you are probably not using a single app that is a .0 release.

You will not be disappointed in the challenge department. I created a r/eggbot for all your eggbot needs.

The plotter is an egg-bot. I got the Ostrich model, it works up to 6 inches. I'm not going to lie, it's pretty hard to use.

Then they should make it accessible only to that user.

Any suggestions to improve this eggy-bread type? by Lite-Blackin typography

A little bit of cream in the eggs and cinnamon and powdered sugar on top.

Banks' bonus culture is acknowledged as a key cause of the crisis. Over three years later -- has it changed? by sixbitin economy

[–]sakabako 6 points7 points ago

Human behavior was the reason for collapse, and bonuses affect human behavior. Bonuses must be implemented in a way that mitigates risk.

I'm confused, are you under the impression that the first commercially available digital camera was in 1975?

Kodak is at death’s door; Fujifilm, its old rival, is thriving. Why? by stratomasterin TrueReddit

[–]sakabako 9 points10 points ago

Kodak couldn't become a prestige brand because they got their start with the brownie camera, which was the first camera a regular person could use and afford. Kodak likes to be easy and approachable.

When digital cameras first took off the software surrounding them was horrible. The only answer they had was to make their own. Unfortunately they're not a software company, so they had a hard time doing much better.

It's a shame that they didn't play off the value of their film brands by putting great sensors in their cameras.

Sake cups and shot glasses are always a good choice.

Make them larger than you want. They don't get really cool until they've been glazed.

What are these magical colours outside of the sRGB color space and where can I see them cheaply/easily? by pengoin Design

[–]sakabako 1 point2 points ago

You can see colors that monitors can't reproduce by looking around at real life. There are lots of them at paint stores, on tiles and other ceramics, or just look at the sky!
