That’s what $200 billion in fake news buys you these days.

What direction do you think “linked” implies? I find no bias in this language. To me, this reads as suggesting mere correlation.

I don’t think I agree, but ultimately only feel comfortable speaking for myself. I’m fairly new to programming so would be interested in hearing if someone else does this too... On a walk this afternoon (for some reason), I realized I had

You make some fine points. I may appear gullible in this exchange, but so be it. I cannot disagree with you here. Consider me won over.

Technically, it looks like the minimum age requirement is 4. From his website, which is linked to in another comment: Is This Legal? Yes! According to the Vermont Constitution and the Vermont Attorney General, you only have to have lived i

>“...and is taking his place with the state's more age-appropriate candidates on the Tuesday primary ballot” Blatant ageism! uncommon != inappropriate I’m only slightly kidding. I am thoroughly impressed with his comments thus far

Yeah don’t get me wrong. They pretty much all are. But, a few key ones aren’t, depending on the host app, and aftermarket plugins have a lot of multi threading support.

Ah, not surprised. I have the Intel 8-core. The best upgrade I’ve made for my video editing workstation has been going to 4x GPUs for DaVinci Resolve.

Thanks. That’s the answer I was looking for. I guess there would be no way to verify privately.

Overall, well put, and those points are tough to discount. > With electronic voting, the counting is done by machines and the mechanism is obfuscated and unverifiable. Could a blockchain not address that with public/private keys?

Does video editing or After Effects work could as home use yet? Video editing, in terms of cutting and splicing clips, is not going to benefit much from this chip, but a lot of effects rendering will benefit, and basic video editing uses a

I think you’re right. I should have specified formats and pipeline components. There are business reasons to not open source these things, but it couldn’t hurt to ask. OpenVDB was a crucial step. It’s hard to live without it these days.

That’s refreshing. Unfortunately, I have. At least in the past few decades, brutalism has been conflated with being unkind, authoritarian, or Stalinist. But maybe this wave has passed and I’m out of the loop. I also didn’t think brutalist a

Which “Brutalism” is BIMBYISM referencing? I don’t use Facebook so maybe someone here can answer this. Is it: - The architectural style? - The social housing traditions that birthed the architectural style? - The contemporary literalist mis

Very cool. Were there any projects outside of the VFX Platform (vfxplatform.com) you could point out? As mentioned in this article, it seems that the VFX studios, even the small ones, are very siloed and protective. Of the studios with Gith

My experience agrees with this. I am a different, significantly less comfortable person to be around when strangers are asking me so many questions about myself. I think it’s just about the worst way to get to know me. When I get hired this

Oh yeah, don’t get me wrong. It’s cool as hell! I’m totally gonna use it for a GUI menu-building script interface I’m making right now :). I have just never done it before, and I think this is the first time I have seen the concept, so the

Looking at your application process, I cannot help but notice how poorly Einstein himself would have performed in such an arena. But, maybe I’m missing something. You mention an aim to support high-achieving outcasts, but the application pr

My reaction to this, as someone who doesn’t use many of these on a regular basis (probably guilty of overusing __new__ though) is actually that I can imagine these causing some real problems. The operator ones seem particularly tempting and

Wonderful. I’ve never seen this resource before. A related article I got a lot out of was ‘Understanding Python Metaclasses’, an in-depth breakdown of Python class instantiation. Here’s the link to that: https://blog.ionelmc.ro&#

I am so glad you mention this! I always heard that as well. Cinematographers love this phrase, but I totally agree. That saying leaves the concept less than dependent on personal experience. I still don’t understand why, but the purest of e

Fair. I want to add that when I talk about “getting bored” of them, I personally do this in a childish and un refined way on a regular basis. So I don’t want to sound like I necessarily mean progressing beyond them. A childish rebel instin

You can get a good idea of this with virtual desktop software running on Vive. After trying it myself, I was reminded that I actually love retina displays and feel like an even higher resolution would be nice. Also FOV is major. Until I can

Well put. Everything you said and a little bit of elaboration on art... One of the best parts of photography is the speed at which you can have a conversation with your own visual system, refining it in the process. Understanding art can be

> Chronological is just one ordering. Why are you so attached to it? This is a very deep question you’re asking, and I don’t know the answer. But, this boat only goes in one direction so let’s make the best of it. But seriously, sure o

I bailed at the advent of forced non-chronological timelines. I would have been less insulted if Facebook hired someone to spit in my face. Easily the scummiest design decision I have ever whitnessed. Actively manipulating the structural re
