When Data/File based workflows started in movies (around 2004), 2-3 copies was the standard from the get go and ideally this was with MD5 checksums (currently xxhash is more common because it's alot faster). LTO backups are also generally part of the copy chains as the 3rd or 4th copy. Before that, duplication with tape was while recording wasn't as common, but it was more common to duplicate after recording. Although you'd have some amount of generation loss depending on the format, not so with recording to multiple decks with the same source video. With film it obviously wasn't possible but original negative (o-neg) was much more cautiously handled. You'd have copies made going to an interpositive for editing and dailies process. Those wouldn't an identical quality so to get a negative copy, you'd be 2 generations of loss. By the time you're seeing a print in a theater, it would be 3 generations. (one->IP->IN->print)

The corruption runs deeper than you'd ever think. A multi-billion dollar industry you've never heard of. This is the world Patent Trolls thrive in: created for them by the U.S. Patent system.

The Micronics printer looked very promising. Seems like a good fit with Formlabs.

Robert lost alot of credibility with me after the yellow rain incident. https://current.org/2012/10/search-for-truth-results-in-radi...

Jad's defense of the story was also meh.

"I thought if we could encourage sharing of ideas between different areas of knowledge, perhaps more of the bigger picture would emerge, and eventually more wisdom might develop. Sort of a trickle-up theory of information leading to knowledge leading to wisdom.

This was the underlying inspiration for HyperCard..."

Diet can play a big factor in autoimmune disorders. proteins leaking from the gut into the bloodstream can trigger a strong immune system reaction which makes the autoimmune disorder flare up.

“Son, you got to know vi just enough so you don’t look stupid.”

Put that on a t-shirt.

Editing film was very much non-linear editing to being with. The transition to tape based editing meant that you were limited to managed edits from source decks to a destination tape deck.

Sticking with just restoring original components isn't necessarily the most interesting result. I like that a different path was taken.

They went all out with a snazzy video for terminal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gw0rXPMMPE

I had the same experience with a fasting/keto regimen. The fasting had a big impact on how deep my sleep was. At times it almost felt like coming out of anesthesia at the hospital.

They have detectives (sometimes ex-cops) roaming the store to spot shoplifting, tag swapping, etc.

I've had my cortisol tested quite a bit (I had a pituitary tumor. Most recently they tested with a salivary cortisol test which is supposedly good now. Previously they'd do a 24hr urine test for the best results. That's in addition to a blood test for cortisol.

Looks like a lenticular display with some filtering and refraction to expand the perceived focal plane outwards.

It also looks like it works best with a black background.

I want an easy way to remap the shift to up and both up/down arrows to down without using some bloated remapping software that doesn't get upgrade.

Hey, look at all the extra spaces from this fantastic MBP keyboard. Grr

Mounts are changeable to PL, Leica, PV, EF, Nikon on those Reds.

Depends alot on the codec too. Light weight codecs like Tico/jpeg-xs and some jpeg implementations can use very little ram (~12 rows worth). Others need alot more for rate control, motion estimation, etc.

There are methane storage wells as wells natural methane pockets under playa vista and that area or playa del rey. Those pipes are part of the wells.

As far as I can tell, that building is next to the karate school. My office last year was the two upper left windows. Crazy seeing how different it was!

More specifically would be the storage/bandwidth needed for the average mobile user to move their photos/videos to the cloud.

One statistic I found was 150 photos/month. For videos, I've not found anything yet but 10 mins/mo is a rough guestimate. Might be totally wrong...

Practially speaking, this doesn't add anything you couldn't do by rotating the model on the ipad... other than transparency but an opaque reflective sheet would work just the same.

I noticed the kiosk was there one week and gone the next. It did feel totally out of place.

Amazon is following the path of Sears which started of as a delivery based store and then ended up with a physical store network.

Why is it that low power mode is usable but slowed down mode because of a battery is sometimes almost unusable?
