I want to write my own metering algorithms in the pursuit of ETTR instead of using the current garbage leftover from film cameras

Ooh that's funny. And I say that as an EVF lover

Surely Elon would leave a backdoor open for himself

1 Electron volts = 29.8 x the energy released Tsar bomba 69.5 x the energy released by convert 1 Kg of mass to energy. Something is way off, and it's not just the singular/plural of "volt"


Yes, the x -> Joule values were inverted. <blush> . Now fixed.


It comes back to my fundamental philosophy that apple is the problem and we should abandon it until it shapes up


I still don't think MacOS is such a great idea


Yeah, imagine if hypothetical scenarios didn't exist…then what?


the reader disappears in a puff of logic


How about this (choices are random): 1) Choose two bottles and one device 2) Measure the two. If they're the same, choose another device, if they're different, choose another bottle When bottles appear identical, make more measurements with different detectors on them (there's no way around doing that) When a device has accumulated n/2 0 or 1 measurements, the remainder are the opposite number (call this column constraint as per your table) When selecting the next detector, prefer the one that is closest to meeting the column constraint (otherwise choose randomly)

Sorry about the poor formatting of the algorithm but I'm typing on my phone and don't want to submit something AI generated

I was trying to figure out the runtime of this…it captures your best case scenario, and I think the worst as well, but what about the average?


Apple should learn some UX lessons from this


Hopefully the dummies were from the board of directors
