To be clear, the only recommendations in the article are long hikes and maybe some arts and crafts. It's predominantly an anthropological case study.

I love looking for things. I think a lot of us do. Web searches, thrift stores, street photography, 3D models, Github projects. Momentary instances of challenge keep it exciting. I do think most of us find comfort in the "hunting and g

At first glance, I would think the prevalence of them relies on some lower level issues. But maybe you're right. They sure seem to occur along with most of the more rotten dealings. I guess the option of them just creates a judicial en

I guess so. Hmm... well I sure hope we get a more developed awareness of the issue so we can plan accordingly for ourselves.

This is approximately an equivalent of "because they can". There must be a deeper explanation, or a history of the law which can give us a better understanding.

Chilling read. I have never heard of this but it's making me much more eager to have children. Does anyone know why the daughter was powerless, or not their guardian herself? This felt like a hole in the narrative.

'Nearly two-thirds of gun deaths are suicides' and '85% of suicides are male' but does it mean to purport that 85% of "gun suicides" are male or not? The visualization represents this but the statistics given d

My first arena concert at age 14. My friends and I thought we had 'mature taste' compared to the others our age and drove 3.5 hrs to it. Going by the age of the crowd, were were correct. This was 1999.

My novice armchair estimate is that something like ZCash is broadly much less efficient than Bitcoin. Of course, no measure can go beyond a loose estimate.

Awkward semantics for sure, but I think they regret having to learn from the experience as opposed to learning by considering the possibilities beforehand.

Is HN competing with 4chan on this? I'm gonna be pretty disappointed if we lose.

I think their response is less than pretentious. I like how she says "I don't know if it's art" clearly acknowledging between the lines that there is no logical conclusion on the horizon. If she claimed it "was art&

This could be a great thing for art in the long run. Contemporary Art museums like MOMA (mentioned in the video) have already been catering to these crowds, albeit unadmittedly. I would not be surprised if this observation planted the see f

I love where you're going. I would eagerly join a team working on this problem. If approached in a critical fashion, I do belive there could be a cohesive approach. There are numerous seemingly impassible problems and barriers, but thi

These are some excellent suggestions! I just went back to doing freelance CGI but reading this post got me thinking. Thank you!

I spent a year or so seeking similar work, in non-gaming applications. This was up until about 10 months ago. My experience in the area was limited and my portfolio is mostly film work and a few small personal 3D projects. I could do CGI wo

It's called 'Rolling Shutter'. This was never a problem until the advent of using CMOS sensors for motion recording. It basically started with the Canon 5D and iPhone video. As a camera operator, this crap technology gave me

To learn about what you're calling "shakiness", look up 'rolling shutter'. It's a way of processing only one row of pixels at a time. CMOS sensors all have this problem. They are able to have much cheaper and s

Concerning arca mount, I would prefer the camera without it. I wouldn't want the extra bulk when using no mount. I'm not seeing the problem with screwing a mount plate on and leaving it there. If you really want it to be permanent

While not bad (I have it) this is not Marshall Mcluhan's work. It is some other guy's. The text is ripped from Marshall Mcluhan's work of the same name which is a for more exploratory work and not fit for a 2017 coffee table.
