I was really hoping this was about wood frame house construction.

Same. Then I decided that couldn’t be it, it must be about creating software frameworks. And, lo, I was wrong a second time.
I was hoping it was about displaying artwork.
I was really hoping this was about how to make a patsy take a fall for an egregious crime I committed.
I am sorely disappointed this didn't explain where to position this object I want to photograph in image space.
I have a recurring data-sync error that I can't seem to diagnose or resolve.
My dad owned a picture framing shop for decades. I wondered why such an article would be on HN.
I'm finding it surprising that many come down to a perspective/point-of-view:

  - art/photo -> viewer perspective
  - patsy -> false perspective
  - data -> message start of protocol
  - stack -> base address in memory
  - mental -> selected dimensions/axes
  - inertial -> selected origin point
Before I would have thought of a frame as a rough cropping of bounds (I'm no artist), but the precise positioning of edges and direction of view can alter the meaning in some.
There's probably an obscure and wonderful web page about that which has never been submitted to HN before.
