Spread rubber, tea, and contracts wherever we went. I’d guess the Malaysians and Singaporeans are happy for the global leg-up caused by having English integrated into their education systems. And for the roads. And the sanitation. And the p

You edit using ProRes or some other kind of RAW proxy, which is then either high enough quality to be used directly, or at the end of the process what is basically a list of instructions can be issued by the software to perform all the oper

What does that mean? The library of Alexandria was happy to burn down all on its own, centuries before copyright.

It's horrible advice yeah – but it deals with the reality of the situation. If you're freaked out by being 50 in a field that for some bizarre reason values youth and inexperience, then be 40. Nobody cares, particularly if you&#x2

Lie about your age and fabricate new skills on your resume/CV. Put “I code in C/Java/Go/Python/Javascript/whateverYouNeed”. Also you’re in the EU so could feasibly move to where needs your exact skill set. But

Yeah it’s pretty remarkable that as soon as the bandwidth and storage requirements for video catch up, the industry quickly pushes past to the next level. I’m sure there’s a way that will be found to distribute the output, but we’re still t

You would kind of expect that from a company that makes professional video equipment.

Making quality 10% better doesn’t necessarily mean the device is 10% bigger. The device could be 10x bigger for a boost of 10% in definition. Law of diminishing returns.

Sure… they’re going to ban one of the killer applications for their expensive gadget. Same as they won’t allow pron in Safari?

The pron made with this camera will be truly eye-popping. BMD knows its target market.

People will still be needed to translate the instructions from upper management, i.e. "make it better, now" or "make the red thing do what the blue thing does" most of which are never going to be parsable with any kind o

Tbh I’d probably use it more if it sounded like a dalek rather than some annoying valley girl.

Not if you’re burning someone else’s venture capital.

This is really sad. Ripe for the hackers of hacker news to get their teeth into helping with, if there are any wizards or mages reading this post.

Is it maybe because nobody owns them, because they’re all on finance, and so will be traded in for new in three years time and so it’s best that they be as generic as possible for the next buyer? Also this: https://www.hagerty.co

Plus I’m already getting downvoted but case in point from even the two articles posted in this thread, in terms of shifting sands of Hegelian contradiction which it peddles. “Economists across the west are alarmed by falling birthrates, whi

The guardian is spreading loony-leftist misinformation on a permanent basis, never mind the election. It’s like standing on shifting sands that one really does have to be a seriously critical thinker to see through. Reading it is a recipe f

I realise I’m oversimplifying yeah, but it still seems like TSMC has a fairly huge amount of leverage that they’re not wielding.

It does seem strange, because ok there’s competition, but there’s very limited competition – we’re talking maybe five or six chip manufacturers? And it seems they would all know the metrics of price and can ratchet upwards what they would c

Brilliant. Thanks for posting. Actually quite a good metric for thinking about valuation, ie it’s 5x what it should be right now.

This has been going on for a couple of years now in the UK.

Being brutally commercial about it though, DJs on Twitch produce content wholly dependent on other people's content – pre-recorded music. It's only reasonable that if the DJs are getting paid, the content creators they depend on s

by gizajob 2y ago
I think DJs were meant to monetize "live" – that was the whole point. I'm now imagining a Netflix of the best DJ sets of all time. It doesn't make any money. Musicians similarly have to "perform their best material

Metaphysically and morally, yeah. Getting the job done for things like photoshop replacements, no.
