It’s still surreal to see OpenAI’s need for training data be so vast that they casually developed and open sourced a generational leap in transcription technology just so that they could scrape online videos better.

NuPhy’s got some interesting options as well. https://nuphy.com/collections/keyboards/products/halo75-v2-qmk-via-wireless-custom-mechanical-keyboard

The low profile space is a little tricky. It leans into column staggered ergonomic boards really quickly. Kailh’s Choc switch is as low as you can go, but those folks get really custom really quick. They’re not big on function rows or arrow clusters, so the next step after Keychron or NuPhy would be something along the lines of the Afternoon Breeze. https://www.afternoonlabs.com/breeze/

Have you taken a look at any of Keychron’s offerings? https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k3-max-qmk-via-wireless-custom-mechanical-keyboard Checks most of the boxes other than the knob.

The two hardest problems in computer science are cache invalidation, naming things, and off by one errors.

It’s not literally about the color of the bubbles. Pictures sent over SMS are compressed down to postage stamp sizes, and group chats with mixed iPhone and Android users have some really wonky behavior. Green bubble bullying isn’t an in-group out-group social status thing. Folks are upset with the one Android user in their 8 person group text for making all of their experiences worse.

How much green bubbles chaff against you is going to vary wildly based on your personal messaging style. If your family texting group is all on the same platform and your friends all communicate on a messaging app or Discord, you’re basically never going to encounter green bubble issues. If your family, friends, work, and other social groups all live on text messaging, it can start to feel like more of an issue.

It’s 2024 on Lemmy. Even Android fans have been kind of turned off by Google. Did you read anything coming out of their recent antitrust case with Epic, or recent YouTube Music firings?

My favorite compile error happened while I was taking a Haskell class.

ghc: panic! (the ‘impossible’ happened)

The issue is plainly stated, and it provides clear next steps to the developer.

Thirty minutes. So mostly misspelled words. Most implementations of this type of feature also have a small “Edited” flag.

There’s a whole linage of arcade game button design, but you occasionally see keyboard switches show up in custom fighting game sticks.

Mice and trackballs often borrow from the whole universe of buttons to make their sculpted formfactors work. I feel like I’ve seen one or two with mechanical keyboard switches in them.

Like rockSlayer mentioned, they just bridge a physical connection between two pins and can technically be used anywhere a typical button could be. Keyboard switches are so optimized for their large square footprint and particular travel distance that they’re usually not the best fit for random industrial needs. You could make an elevator control panel out of key switches, but there’s probably a cheaper, more well suited button you could use instead.
