Oh man, if you haven't seen "Reality Contains a Surprising Amount of Detail", prepare to be delighted.

Also: I thought there were framing nailers that fire larger coated sinkers like you'd drive with a hammer? When are those appropriate, and when should nailing framing be done by hand?

No one hammers framing nails by hand anymore, except occasionally. The framing nailer has completely taken over. There are even very good cordless framing nailers now, so no dragging an air hose behind you everywhere you go.
It's been a few years since I did any framing, so I could be wrong about the current state of the industry.
