Bigger chip = more surface area = higher chance for somewhere in the chip to have a manufacturing defect

Yields on silicon are great, but not perfect

I have a pixel 6 pro, works great Never had problems with the microphones, and calls are extra clear because they do some ai nonsense to upscale the audio coming into the phone My 2 main gripes are: The modem, I have issues with reception in the strangest locations, I can have direct line of sight to 3 different cell towers and still get stuck on edge till I hit the "Fix connectivity" button in settings, but when it is working (which it does 95% of the time), works great The camera, amazing photo quality, videos look great, I have nothing against image quality. But the videos this thing takes are MASSIVE, even with HVEC on, a 50 second video can weigh over 300mb. Not sure what's up with that. Oh also the main shooter camera is mechanically separated from the rest of the phone, so if you shake the phone or whip pan it too hard, you can hear it rattle.

Overall 9/10 though! I hear the pixel 7 has a better modem

They look pretty clean, but did they really need to refresh? Everything looked fine before IMHO

I want to finally start learning object oriented programming.

I've written a lot of stuff for automating tasks at work (Windows PowerShell) and tinkered with hobby projects (rust, python) in my free time, but I've never been able to wrap my head around why someone wouldn't want to do everything functionally until quite recently.

I taught myself to program so I didn't even know about the term "functional programming" until quite recently :P

I genuinely enjoy the convenience of self checkout, if you know how to use one, they seem to be faster

Especially after going to the same store a couple times, you eventually memorize where the buttons are and the quirks of the system

But yeah I fall into the “less items” category most of the time, but even for larger loads I prefer self checkout

Maybe it’s just because it’s interactive, or maybe it’s because I don’t want to talk to a depressed cashier
