Oh, with leather I consider it great luck that I started learning from someone that have a lot of years of experience. I'm an amateur and sew only for myself and family/friends.
Want really good and consistent quality vegetable tanned leather made in Poland? Then she said that there is basically one place (they produce it from over 110 years, and they are quite low in Google searches). Want chrome tanned leather with a lot of colors that are consistent and ALWAYS the same as on sampler? Also only one place.
I was later learning normal sewing with her mother. When asked about good quality cotton (or other natural) materials in small quantities she basically say: "well, it will be quite hard and when I want really good materials I order them straight from Italy, available only in wholesale quantities from few manufacturers that I veted over last 40 years". She later said that in textile industry you can't really trust anybody, because they can send you few batches of great quality and then suddenly lower quality and will be telling straight to your face that "quality was always like that"...
Careful, Reddit is rumored to IPO later this year so they've been turning the enshittification screws. Expect to see less and less legitimate opinions, more and more corporate manipulation and ads, and likely a lot of LLM-generated astroturfing as the profit engine dials up to 11.
When you can find older stuff or well-reasoned opinions on Reddit, it's a goldmine. But sadly that doesn't justify the pricing Reddit's owners surely want to see in the IPO so it'll likely get crowded out by short-term profitable long-term garbage priorities.
This tool is looking really neat but I'm on Linux using Firefox and Android using Firefox so no luck. Web app is also working bad in Firefox on Android.
"The Smart Label uses the low-power cellular 5G connectivity standard (LTE CAT-M) to send data regarding device location and temperature back to a centralized dashboard, enabling logistics companies to track valuable goods..."
"The printed battery keeps the label as light as possible, while the use of low-power connectivity ensures that battery life is optimized and can last up to 6 months. The label could be used multiple times, depending on the frequency of the transmission."
Hopefully, there is surprising lack of ergonomic keyboards with function keys. That's basically the most important reason I'm waiting for moergo glove80 to arrive. But I would also like to have something flat and thin with low profile switches for portable usage.
I have Sony A7III and basically learned how to take pictures so that jpg files out of the camera looks good. I shoot jpg + RAW but I almost never touch RAW files. And people are really surprised when I'm telling them that (especially photographers). I like taking pictures, not editing them. It's definitely minority of people and I heard from many new photographers I meet that I'm wasting my camera abilities. Almost as if I'm not editing pictured from camera then I'm not "real" photographer. Thankfully I don't care anymore about it and I'm happy with my pictures (and my family, friends and other photographers that got used to me :P).
I mourn that StackEdit [1] got abandoned. It's online markdown editor that can use git as a backend. Fully cross platform editing (in browser) with synced all text. I used it with GitHub private repository for all my notes but editing on mobile was really buggy. So I moved to notion (unfortunately).
I would love to have search engine similar to Google (I search in Polish and English, duckduckgo is no good for this, I tried) with ability to have favourite pages. If there are result on any of this pages from my search always show them in top 3. It should not matter how old are this favourite pages are or when last time they were updated or if they have low amount of reference links to them. They are my favourite so show me results from them on top.
And they should still show in my results even if Google or any search engine delist them for some boggus reasons from default results (they are my favourite so I veted they are good for me).
