Long-Term Usage Review for Oppo Finder X5 Pro
This is not a newly released phone. Thus, I did the long-term usage review. I have used that phone for about 8 Months. Generally, that is very happy. I brought the photo during two local trips. I used it as the primary camera for photos and video.
Actually, I bought this phone for photo taking. It has 50MP Camera. That is not bad. Moreover, it has Hasselblad-Branded Triple Camera Units. You can shoot the photo in Hasselblad color tone. Furthermore, it has A.I. Mode. I found it will tune the color, even it is better than your eyes. I got the feeling, it is a bit faked.
It has marisilicon X imaging npu. That is good for low light photography. I found it can enhance the light a lot.
I did not buy that for gaming purposes, although it should a good performance for gaming. Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 CPU and 12GB Ram, that is very good,
That is a flagship phone released on 2022, and the price around $800. I think that is a very value-for-money phone
Internet Outage caused by mouse
Two months ago, I lost my internet connection. The first thing I thought about was that my internet provider got an outage in my area. After I contacted my provider via online chat, there was no outage in my area. At first, I believed my provider was declining after I checked my NBN box at the house after it fell after I touched it. The cable attached at the back was loose. I discovered that the cable had been chewed. I grew up in a city filled with high-rise buildings. It's tough to believe that an internet outage could be caused by an animal chewing on the cable. Also, I had a humorous idea - is the optical cable tasty?
Charting Tool for WPF
Recently, we have been buying a WPF application. That is a budget management application. That is talking about money. Of course, charts need to play an important role. I have looked into various charting libraries. Some of them need to be paid. However, one is entirely open and completed under an MIT license. That does not require access to their AP. Charting is done locally. It supports everything, such as MAUI, Wpf, Winforms, and ASP.net. In addition, the documentation is alright. That is Live Charts.
Solution for WPF Combo Box binding with a object type value
I found that the ComboBox WPF binding in WPF does not work correctly if the binding value is of an object type. Even when I set SelectedValuePath="Id", the binding fails to set the value. When a different value in the ComboBox is selected, the new selected value should be set in the ViewModel too. However, this does not happen this way.
I got a solution for this issue, which is to set the SelectedValue to be the CategoryId:
<ComboBox Grid.Row="3" Grid.Column="1" ItemsSource="{Binding CategoryList}" DisplayMemberPath="Name" SelectedItem="CategoryId" SelectedValue="{Binding CategoryId, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" SelectedValuePath="Id" Margin="5"/>
Inside the ViewModel:
public int CategoryId { get => _selectedCategoryId; set { if (_selectedCategoryId != value) { //_selectedCategory = value; _item.CategoryId = value; _item.Category = CategoryList.FirstOrDefault(c => c.Id == value); OnPropertyChanged(); } } }
Then it will work!
Harnessing ChatGPT for Rapid Budget Management App Development in WPF
Creating a Simple Budget Management App with ChatGPT
Creating a simple budget management app in WPF can take a while, especially if you'd rather spend time working on more exciting areas of your project, like integrating machine learning using ML.NET. In this blog article, we'll look at how ChatGPT can create a budget management app framework, letting you manage and import budget items from a CSV file downloaded from your bank. By doing this, you'll save time and be able to focus on the intriguing parts of your project.
The Power of ChatGPT in Rapid App Development
Using ChatGPT to generate code for basic app functionalities can save you hours of development time. For example, in my experience, ChatGPT helped create a basic budget management app in WPF within 1-2 hours. This allowed him to shift his focus to implementing machine learning with ML.NET, which he had been eager to explore for the past two years.
Impressive UI Generation
ChatGPT is not only generates usable code, it can also create a great user interface in terms creating XAML that requires minimal customization. With this feature, you can quickly move on to customizing the app's appearance by applying skins or themes.
How ChatGPT Makes the Development of Budget Management Apps Simpler
You may create the following key elements of your budget management software by utilising ChatGPT:
- a.NET Framework project with the relevant WPF packages
- a graphical user interface featuring buttons and a DataGrid as a budget summary
- Data Models of spending items with pertinent attributes
- Generate the business logic for managing budget items
- Functionality for importing CSV for budgetary items
Focusing on the Interesting Aspects: ML.NET Integration
I can devote your time to the more intriguing components now because ChatGPT-generated code has already laid the groundwork. For example, I can use ML.NET to examine the imported budget data, spot trends, and generate forecasts or suggestions that can assist users in managing their money more skilfully.
Developers may now focus on more fascinating and complicated areas of their projects by spending less time on time-consuming app development tasks thanks to ChatGPT. For example, I can rapidly create a budget management app
