As someone who also operates fleets of Macs, for years now, there is no possible way this bug predates macOS 26. If the bug description is correct, it must be a new one.
Sure, but less grain is often worth it. There's a reason why fast lenses exist. The high quality lens being used here can probably still resolve 20 MP adequately even wide open.
I had that lens. It’s soft as fuck around the edges open.
Peak sharpness is about f/8. They should have had the D5 on aperture priority auto iso, pushed the exposure comp either way and then just fired at f/8 and let the camera make the decisions.
But they are astronauts not photographers :)
The modern Z lenses are far better and sharper open but much larger generally.
In 1976, 14-year-old Chris Espinosa rode a moped to his job demonstrating computers made in Steve Jobs’s childhood home. The company has changed a bit since then.
HN's submission form removes the query string with the share code:
I think it should work at the user config level too:
> If project-, user-, and system-level configuration files are found, the settings will be merged, with project-level configuration taking precedence over the user-level configuration, and user-level configuration taking precedence over the system-level configuration.
> You can disable this escape hatch by setting "allowUnsandboxedCommands": false in your sandbox settings. When disabled, the dangerouslyDisableSandbox parameter is completely ignored and all commands must run sandboxed or be explicitly listed in excludedCommands.
(I have no idea why that isn't the default because otherwise the sandbox is nearly pointless and gives a false sense of security. In any case, I prefer to start Claude in a sandbox already than trust its implementation.)
The Redcat scope FL is 250 mm. The Askar scope FL is 1000 mm. The camera has an APS-C sensor (23.5 mm x 15.7 mm) giving it a crop factor of about 1.5x compared to 35 mm film (where 50mm is considered 1:1 human vision field of view).
So:
Redcat: 250 / 50 * 1.5 =7.5x magnification
Askar : 1000 / 50 * 1.5 =30x magnification
This is deep sky photography. Doesn't require lots of magnification. What it does require is dark skies and lots of exposure time.
I wish he had more info on his site about his capture process, but it sounds like some of his captures are over multiple nights? I'm not entirely clear on the terminology here:
I may be wrong with all of this. I haven't done any astrophotography since I was a teen and that was just a 50 mm Nikon SLR on the back of a Celestron 8" CST with motorized manual tracking from highly suboptimal skies (Miami, FL). Still, got some decent shots of the Orion nebula.
