I love what Grant Petty and his team at Blackmagic Design are doing. Creating cutting-edge, feature-rich, 10k cinema cameras at a fraction of the price of the industry giants.

I'm not sure how I'm making an assumption. They admit they were unable to form emotional connections prior to this convoluted methodology they've developed.

This is kind of sad. It just feels like OP has built this enormous apparatus over some emotional void they've picked up in their development. Making friends just isn't that hard for the vast majority of people. If you're h

I like to try and get a sense each day of what is happening in our dystopia. I start with mainstream news first thing in the morning to see the prevailing narrative / propaganda people are being fed. From there I go to broadsheet left

Is quoting a stoic on HN the same as playing 'Stairway to Heaven' in a guitar shop? I do love this quote of course (and all things Aurelius).

Forget nuance, what I would have given for one meaningful moment from my largely aloof old man. You are lucky to have that relationship in ways you'll never know. Either way, sorry to hear about his condition.

The French New Wave were all too different to generalise like this. Godard and Rohmer (or Resnais) could't be more different really. It was actually the previous generation of French directors that they were all reacting against - who

In my experience it just comes down to time and competing priorities. Would I love to deep dive into my fuse box and learn how to rewire it? Very much so. But the limited free time I have needs to go into side projects and life goals. I s

Sure, but what is your point? I never said the early French New Wave films didn't do well in their native homeland. My point stands that there were 'name' directors that excited the public long before the auteur theory.

What about Hitchcock? Lang? Sturges? Von Sternberg? Welles? Directors enjoyed top-billing prior to the articles and films by the Cahiers du Cinéma critics. While they made a huge contribution to the form of cinema, how many people real

I've not been diagnosed, but I think my problem with 'journalling' is that it is far too rigid and structural. When I put pen to paper in the morning, I am letting my absolute freak flag fly and engage in something that is mu

OT - but the insistence on italicized type for this article is rather bizarre. No other USC article I've ever seen follows this formatting.
