Tricky, I would say it's not worth it to gamble with winner takes it all type of things. You'll never notice that you made it and actually will probably fail. On the other hand I would not have much respect for young person who wo

I find it worrying that only now people start to be sceptical about visual information. There is a huge difference between real world and the framed and curated view photographer or documentarist gives you. If you go to school to learn abou

As someone working in film I think that quote is quite good. Director is hugely important, but it really is about the team. Good director picks the players and aligns everyone, but it takes lot of people to come up with the creative decisio

Standard lighting is way too dim and does not replace sunlight. It's very good idea to let as much sunlight in as possible. Even though it is only useful part of the day. Where I am from sun does not shine part of the year and living w

Yes I agree. I don't know if this Charlie Munger musing [1] on how some fields figure out not to engage in cut throat competition is relevant here. [1] http://theinvestmentsblog.blogspot.fi/2014/09/munger-on-ai

I think that's how insurance works on a basic level, but when it is run as business you try to maximize the profit. Healthcare is one of the best businesses around because in the event your client gets very sick they are willing to pay

Not sure how good option nuclear is with the recent experience with Olkiluoto 3. Probably safe yes, but maybe too expensive?

Also I hope people who go to museum would refrain from photographing and actually enjoy the art experience while there. MoMa especially was very bad in this regard and it was very difficult to look at anything and not be asked to move out o

I find that most of this discussion is framed through being right and needing to school someone. That is pretty easy special case. The useful thing to learn in conversation would be to actually have power to adjust your own beliefs. It&#x27

I have sometimes used a method where I start working in the morning and when I find myself losing focus I have a rule to stop and go home. It keeps me constantly underachieving and wasting time. After a while I actually just really want to

If it looks like what the client is looking for (a very big if), those are very cheap frames. If you hire someone to manually mangle 5 min of video it will usually end up costing way more than that.

I understand what you mean. For me it was not a problem. If you are working in office people can count the hours you are sitting as well. I didn't view working remote different. And you can still turn the stream off if you want to conc

Ok, I misunderstood snow days to mean generally snowy days. I am from north and we have snow many months of the year. I thought if snowy day causes school to shut down it must be in a place where it doesn't snow this often. If snow day

I've seen my classification go from Gen X to Gen Y and then to millenial over the years. I guess I should be happy to be considered one of the new kids, but I wish I would have grown up to be X like I was promised.
