Same for us.
We both have our own checking and savings accounts, plus a joint checking and a joint savings one.
We each put a certain amount every month to the joint account, based on our revenue (I earn more so I contribute more).
Everything is then paid from the joint account.
For big expenses, we both decide how to spread the money in different categories.
We both have money left on our own accounts to use however we want.
I would say this works quite well for us, and allow us to plan and budget for our expenses (I mainly do it, she doesn't really care about the software, but she can access it and see how much we have for each category).
IMO if that structure is autogenerated from the API specs (like protobuf, OpenAPI, ...), it's not needed to share it. Plus you can make it evolve at the pace of each service, if your API keeps backwards compatibility.
Same for mine, there's even a long thread about it in Lenovo's forum (T14 gen1).
I still think 4 days is not really great compared to my previous MacBook that could sleep for weeks.
Battery life is bad overall for this, at least on the sister T14s gen1. Is it the same experience for you and what tweaks have you made to increase battery life?
According to this thread we might never get AMD pstate driver working.
I enabled the pstate driver yesterday for my T14s gen3 (AMD). It almost doubled my battery life, the fan never spins anymore and it's very very quiet and cool now. You need to specifically enable it in Linux kernel, this is how I did it:
Yes battery life is awful since day 1. I initially thought I had a faulty device or something. Apart from that the machine is great, it's really a shame.
I tried a lot of various things mentioned in the forum, updated the BIOS, tested plenty of various configurations, to no avail.
It's a bit crazy that it's been so long and it's still a major pain point for me on Linux. Apart from that, I really enjoy the machine. Not really an issue when it's plugged in at home, but annoying on the go...
The one thing to note here is that an iPhone doesn't have any UI to manually control settings a professional photographer might change like shutter speed, aperture and ISO. It only has a rudimentary interface to change the focus and most of the times I've seen people take photos won their iPhones, they rarely tap to set the focus and rely on the autofocus.
The iPhone camera is definitely not holding anyone back from shooting pictures of "professional photographer" quality and I for one am glad to see so many people have access to something that allows for great photos to be taken without needing to know anything and everything about how cameras work.
> It only has a rudimentary interface to change the focus and most of the times I've seen people take photos won their iPhones, they rarely tap to set the focus and rely on the autofocus.
The "interface to change the focus", AFAIK, is just an interface to change the reference point for the autofocus, so even if you "tap to set the focus" you are still relying on the autofocus.
Using a professional-level camera won't make you a professional photographer either (i.e. your pictures won't be this good if you're not good at taking pictures either way.) Comparing how the pictures look when taken by someone who knows how to take pictures is really the only way to... compare how pictures look.
