Iā€™m no photographer but Iā€™ve been disappointed many times with what iPhone does with small details in the photos. Looks like my problems are over! lux.camera/introducing-process

Niki Tonsky

I mean, how is this good, by any standard? Give me noise, at least noise is honest. My brain can add its own detail much better than any of your algorithm

Today, we are launching something unlike any tech product in 2024: a product that uses zero AI and zero computational photography to produce natural, film-like photos.

We call it Process Zero.

A new mode in Halide that skips standard iPhone image processing. It produces beautiful, film like shots and allows greater control over lighting and exposure. And there's moreā€¦

Say hello to Process Zero and Halide 2.15: lux.camera/introducing-process

@halide Hey! I might be missing something here, or I may very well have misunderstood 2.14 and earlier all along. But what's the difference between Process Zero and shooting plain ol' RAW before now? (I'd long opted for RAW in Halide rather than ProRAW precisely for the reasons you've mentioned in the post.)

@halide funny that long time ago RAW was supposed to mean ā€œprocess zeroā€ šŸ‘»

@halide Thanks for the update, I dig the new mode! But I'm missing the instant preset. Liked it a lot. Is it gone for good?

@nikitonsky I'm starting to wonder if this is just preparation to launch their own recall feature?

@nikitonsky Maybe Apple just should just disallow running any apps altogether. All security issues solved!

@nikitonsky I kinda want macos to be paid product again so that apple would need to prove to users that new update is worth something, not just force it to everyone

Niki Tonsky

So if Iā€™m not a customer, there is a public toilet for me? Right?

Mike Fikes

@nikitonsky it does sound like an ā€œif and only ifā€ statement, so Iā€™d agree

@nikitonsky Punctuation is missing, but the English ā€œforā€ not on a new line is very peculiarā€¦

ā€œWe need design for the umbrella holder. Can you make it?ā€
ā€œSay no moreā€

P.McNewHold :flagPiratbyraan:

@nikitonsky It hold your umbrella at least ! That's still half of the deal here however, as i do expect plenty of water leaking from the letters...

Dieter Komendera

@nikitonsky at least people will less likely confuse it with a trash can

Niki Tonsky

Thatā€™s the opposite of forever

Ben

@nikitonsky itā€™ll last forever*! But we want to extract rent for it instead of letting you own it

* it wonā€™t last forever, and youā€™ll have to buy a new one every time

A local-first system is one in which the failure of a computer you didn't even know existed canā€™t render your own computer unusable.

Animating _content_ in makes no sense. I came to look at content, just show it to me as soon as itā€™s available.

@grumpy_website Literally so insulting when websites do this shit.

It's like if the person who thought this was a good idea had a blindfold that you need to put on before showing you each item you wanna see so they can do a big wow reveal and you can clap at each one lol.

HerrHerrmann

@grumpy_website At first I thought only the images would be lazy-loaded and then faded in after they finished loading. But all texts are also doing that, so I suppose this was an explicit decision to animate all content ā€¦
