Episode notes
Why NASA Uses Older Camera Gear
- Space programs often use slightly older but proven camera models because programs lock hardware years before launch for validation.
- Marques and David note Nikon D5's large pixel pitch and Nikon Z9/Hasselblad choices prioritized low-noise lunar imaging over megapixel counts.
Try Vertical Tabs On Wide Monitors
- Try vertical tabs if you have widescreen monitors because they free horizontal space and scale to many open tabs.
- Marques and David prefer side tabs for heavy tabbing; Arc and Firefox already make vertical workflows practical.
The Real Tradeoff With Vertical Tabs
- Vertical tabs trade unused side pixels for visible tab labels, reducing top overflow on widescreen displays.
- Debate centers on personal workflows: multi-window side-by-side setups can amplify the vertical-tab width cost.
