What is the point? As long as your camera has a decent clock, you just need to record a gpx during your shooting session with an external device and you can add geolocation after you download your pictures. IIRC Darktable can do that.

This can be solved by implementing RfC 3514.

Well, you still need to track down the <filename> part and knowing what you want to search, so you need to examine the schema anyway.

However, if your all application state can be represented in a single json file of less than a dozen MB, yes, a database can be overkill.

> Dealing with even sqlite is a pain in the ass when you just need to tweak or read something, especially if you're not the dev.

How? With SQL is super easy to search, compare, and update data. That's what it’s built for.

> I forget how to type braces or back ticks.

US layout and compose key on AltGr. You'll never look back.

I feel like today an engineer with a modern framework and AI con produce in an afternoon a product that deliver real value, something that 25 years ago would have required a full hour by a high schooler with MS Access.

Actually, I sense a mounting "AI fatigue". Angry comments under AI contents. Social media accounts that proclaim to be "AI Free". I was thinking today that the killer app for AI could be a filter that automatically exclude all AI content.

Much like "the Cloud" solved a lot of problems in IT, and replaced them with more, different, harder problems.

But the point is, that's the same happening right now without religion. At least, with organized religion, you have someone accountable.

Again, this come from someone without a religious affiliation.

> You get certainty in an uncertain world. You get a community that will defend you. You get a simple heuristic for navigating complex issues.

This is what faith used to provide. I say this as a not religious person: Maybe societies really need something like religion to channel irrationality?

This is the real point. Just measuring the amount of water involved makes no sense. Taking 100 liters of water from a river to cool a plant and dumping them back in a river a few degrees warmer is different from taking 100 liters from a fossil acquifer to evaporatively cool the same plant.

"X-ray light" sound a bit like beer soda.

I can relate. May ask you how your relation with AI tools is? I tend to find myself translating my mental model into natural language, to have a machine convert it into code, then reading that code back to mental model. It's unnerving. It feels much more natural writing my mental model directly into code.
