Video is nicely sequential and eminently suitable for spinning disk service.

What's really confusing me is the 10G lan configuration because it's leaving little headroom above uncompressed 4K 4:4:4 10bit (12bit is broadcast and where source permits archive standard). What about multiple streams for a/b'ing a grade or first/ second camera edit roll?

Ed. added "really" replaced "for" with "above"

Equally it's a sorry indictment of our economic times that the meaning of unlawful has been hammered into a understanding that non prohibition is permission. This aggressive and putative new use is refuted by every founding principle of the common law in Anglo Saxon countries and most of the western world. See the argument of letter vs. spirit for a effect.

Ed. cleared up phrasing around new use, replaced meaning with use for .. meaning.

Sadly I think that the value of Wikipedia in this lamentable example of judicial laziness and professional under funding is the web just happens to be more easily searched than LEXIS. Easily != competently.

Ed. competently replaced usefully

Hang on, doesn't deliberate manipulation of the consumption of counterfactual legal precedent by a sitting judiciary (withholding with measurable effect the countering case references is the study method) only result in a spate of mistrials?

Ed. legal precedent replaced sources for clarity of this significance

I'd like to recommend a shelf of great to read erudite and intelligible financial history and financial social history and technicality, from which you'd recognize the simulacra, but it wouldn't help very much because this crypto game strips out everything fundamental economic and human from their imaginary systems and leaves solely a caricature of a carcass.

I'm despondent about the overall crypto situation, please forgive me for my cynicism, because I'm genuinely concerned about how many times people can exclaim the king is naked the cupboard is bare the promises aren't merely empty but never had meaning, and yet the socialized penny just won't drop.

This FT article [0] goes some way to describing how vulnerable young and low income people are to false investment scheming. What's needed (very rapidly) is to reveal the full extent of behavioural and technical engineering used in exploitation, instead of blaming the phenomenon on concocted reductio ad infortunium.

[0] Financial Times article "Generation Moonshot": https://archive.ph/3d4DW

Edit,: added for clarity, "...from which...the simulacra.."; corrected "onto" as "on" and thereafter revised with clearer unchanged meaning the rest of final sentence. (and Ed2 sp ip.); E3 people instead of folk ,(mobile sorry) E4 added, "scheming" after "false investment" for clarity.

I'm guessing that the VC premium pays for privileges like lock up and preferred terms.

VC buying - aka VC selling to greater fool LPs, with purported guarantees trails a wake of retail that fuels their vig.

I know nothing concrete about crypto n.b. but I think I can recognize the structured avarice. If my precis is all that's happening I'd convict this kind of VC instantly.

Don't smoke heroin, try Oxycontin!

Sorry for the snark but I'm nursing a hangover created in the company of a important friend who's promising to quit drinking after moving state next month, so this is a rather timely paper. However if my friend were to merely substitute another intoxicant I'd lose my mind and probably my wonderful friend. So I personally wouldn't suggest alternative habits at least.

Edit: punctuation

I think that all the analysis I've found with a quick search isn't very helpful.

The seller had to sue to either obtain payment or void the contract or else spend energies and time pursuing payment by persuasion whilst the entire time granting the ostensible buyers a free call option on FOB Liverpool cotton. My cynical guess is that regardless of evidence of foreknowledge about the duplicate ship names, Lloyds Register [0] most certainly did exist and importantly was considerably more accessible from Liverpool than India. Seller's imperative wasn't recompense but prior to marketing the cargo and taking profit, obtaining title and clean hands. Why go to so much effort? Letters of credit access and costs issues that could have been affected by a impossible distance impedance to necessary restorative PR.

Edit:.. evidence of foreknowledge..

There's no form of marketing that I "like" or actively reward, at most there's marketing that I fell for.

For very high value software licensing agreements there's huge financial rewards for performing the marketing dance with the vendor. Paying list for enterprise software doesn't happen. Customers who even know what Oracle RAS is , or SQL SERVER Parallel, are numbered in the hundreds. The expenditure on manpower to design and commission a new major database installation is two to three orders of magnitude greater than the license costs. That's per database not enterprise wide. You embark upon a courtship from the outset.

This isn't what the article nor what most everyone's discussing, but I thought it worthwhile to offer a real illustration of a very viable means of sales and marketing that can be made to work if you have a high value application or service and can identify a small finite number of customers.

Edit: I probably should have said the number of customers who know what they're doing with the most sophisticated databases is very likely in the hundreds. Arguably the market is rather larger but if the behaviour F500 generally is any indication, there's a lot of nameplate and marquee buying driven by C suite egos. If you're selling a unique and expensive application this is where your margins are. And where tales of sales excess and bad reputation / hubris attaching to your product originate.

In the UK the 1980 banking act introduced formerly excluded commercial banks to housing loans and simultaneously increased the statutory maximum loan value from 3* single wage earners salary to 5* combined household income of married couples. Previously only mutual savings and loan member societies aka building societies could lend private housing loans. Not only now was the public forced into paying for profit margins, but access to capital enjoyed by commercial banks vastly outgunned the much more regulated thrifts who eg couldn't easily raise their offer rates above long term deposit bases. Disastrous in the up rate eighties. Louis Ranieri of Solomon Brothers fame opened The Mortgage Corporation in London and shipped in top trading talent but the thrifts not only knew nothing about their books but weren't persuaded to unload like the accidental priming of the US mortgage market. Although profit seeking it seemed only Ranieri ever gave a damn to do anything that might have saved UK S&Ls. Nothing contributed to the dissolution of the family more than this legislative enforcement of the necessity for one of any separating couple to forgo the ability to afford a home.

P.S. Increasing the lending limit naturally turbocharged inflation. Adjusting your books to manage changing rates environment requires at least functional treasury and cash desks. Into this century several household name UK mutuals turned into banks didn't have their own CHAPS terminal. (Clearing House Automated Payments. Entry level facility for a even a token treasury function. Edit: for that matter even for a small company such as ours.)

Edit: added about the rates market and the abysmal neglect of UK capital economic underpinnings. Things were so desperate and freewheeling the largest UK thrift only was persuaded to return the six billion it's actuaries deemed in excess of pension fund requirements at the time of demutualization in 2018. No carry paid. Edit2: only Ranieri.. have / gave a damn. Ed3 Louis' name correctly.

I don't know when I first heard students boasting about these scare away intro lectures [0] but it was noticeable by the early eighties.

I've a few unsubstantiated hypotheses why:

Zero Sum Game taught by boomer parents conscious that the party was already over but would be sustained inevitably with increasing ruthlessness.[1]

Intellectual Property laws started slicing and dicing knowledge that became temporarily more valuable by fencing it in.

Higher Education caught performance metrics (without much if any performance pay) and so especially elite schools but eventually the rest cottoned onto input pre selection as a way of surviving.

Society became a overt lottery particularly for low income families. This placed the easy weight of the burden of responsibility of tutors on the side of direction to easier subjects.

I believe all these factors and more began compounding exponentially with the enclosures act imposition of a requirement for a degree for work with no or marginal utility for the same.

Marketing, loans and for a particularly insidious enclosures act, the UK's "classless society" introduction of University status not only for a tsunami of new institutions (the UK will now accredit degree granting university status in only two years..) and the white washing of the vocational STEM/ Engineering focused UK Polytechnic system (making them independent degree awarding institutions enabled diversification and dilution) which multiplied the demand for least effort maximum passing grade tertiary education throughout the world ,by the turn of this century to lamentable result.

Bought military tech suppliers :-| Point being we need the new program before we are fully grown up so to pass it on. With massive shifts to younger population and the current generation of middle aged folk being capitalized by three bull cycles the last two payable like a Japanese 80's mortgage, by the grandchildren, this means now.

Drexel was shut down by order of one certain ambitious NY Assistant AG by the name of Rudy Giuliani. The indictment? Criminal prosecution for statutory civil offences of two counts of failure to file stock transfer forms that by the letter of the law impose a fin e. Sentence: 12 years in federal. Appealed and won. Key witnesses for the prosecution included the convicted fraudster Ivan Boesky. RICO was the act abused to overnight shutter the single most critical liquidity provider to the savings and loans industry. American Thrifts to almost the last were bankrupted instantly. Cost to the taxpayer for the bailout? Cheap at four trillion.

Oh and Lowell Milken, Mike's brother, was charged before anyone else by Giuliani in a overt and well documented hostage manipulation. Lowell never held operational executive office sufficient to have any involvement with the affair and his indictment was dropped. I should probably also note that Mike infamously never spent money on lifestyle and had to be brute forced into upgrading dress and toupee. Anyone on the street as successful as Mike and not spending money will have accumulated substantial wealth even if you don't count the Rodeo drive era. Much of which wealth went into settling civil suits.

Edit2: Giuliani's correct job title at the time

And the fines fund the pseudo regulatory bodies in reward for not regulating.

It's Rota's 10th point, on ageing, that's ringing in my ears. I'm the oldest person in the room far too often (and the population growth of recent decades serves to increase the effect and maybe even accelerate its onset) and I can absolutely attest, with the benefit of belated hindsight, to Rota's observation that this transformation happened overnight in a simple erasure of a former life. I'm searching for any indication whether I can see how to formulate any potential insights from my recollection of my time prior to this moment, for the purpose of possible improvements in approach before this life event, but I'm rather lost in thoughts about my experience with the latter half of the ageing phenomenon which has never been so succinctly put.

Rota encourages you in your increasing age to enjoy being regarded as a institutional being. Possibly this needs to be updated in countries where there's been institutional and government scaling creep, because being perceived as institutional and bureaucratic (which effects I could already create too long before qualifying for Rota's advice) in my recent experience creates more difficulty than value with younger folk.

Edit: forgot now inserted that what I have been reflecting on is whether there's better ways leading up to becoming a overnight old aged institution .

Ukraine can choose whatever allies it damn pleases.

If only it was so easy then this would have been over as soon as it started.

We did but according to anecdotal evidence self preoccupied boomers forgot to pass it on.

I think that corporate sponsorship of education needs of to be outlawed. We've had at least three generations of exponential feedback of antisocial principles dominating business education. Taking much longer to go hockey stick. MBAs can't keep resting on the laurels of bringing the first GI Bill gen from draft to serving technical competence to industrial relevance. For a start the foundation for the qualification is absolutely rooted in post war growth imperatives.

I intuitively understand that we're using the whole of our brains in the same way that we use the full capacity of NNs and discard the majority of results. In other words the"unused" 90% of our brain is actually importantly figuring out all the less good fits that are essential for the ultimate deductions we utilize.

3M sell a range of security film for after market application. Also IR/UV blocking films. Former external latter internal. Worth looking at the energy savings because which can be significant depending on your local climate. Variants provide internal reflection suppression and tints which might make it attractive to executive pursors. The (public SKU) electrically conductive window film was discontinued unfortunately..

Reading this man's homepage he comes across as a insufferable egotist. I couldn't find any trace of didactic value among the self aggrandizing rhetoric not possible to convey with infinitely greater humility and persuasion as well as concision.

Edit: reference source decades of being quite intolerable myself. Takes one to know one. And by my experience incredible good fortune and more decades to repent.

Is enabling the same as normalization? Surely normalization is acceptance into culture whereas even in dysfunctional organizations the individual actors all think that they're solving problems and not taking any shit.

The pity is often how the most qualified talent for resolving poor behaviour is so often subordinated into slopping out the pigsty. There needs to be a foundational next step.

Edit: since Fairchild we've been scared of merely assembling raw talent under a thin layer of management capabilities and from this is developed the pseudo matrix management system that e.g. Microsoft operates.

That's nothing I watched Oracle pump Oracle 6 all down route 101.

Edit: see the shareholder suits that followed. Customers were also buying bits and a promise ^h^h support and getting their assets frozen.

Precisely because of the minimal gfx world I can't imagine it ageing. Ironically I think it's possible only Disney of the major studios could have understood the necessity as well as potential of audience imagination to fill out the emotional picture.

EVFs can be better than the Fujifilm you have and especially Nikon is (currently giving theirs better signal than other makes.

I cannot agree more about low light photography.

The problem with EVF design common to all current mirrorless is the autofocus needs more exposure to work in low light. This refutes just one of the OP's marketing claims which I disagree with Thom Hogan isn't the under sold story because of poor marketing (Nikon is selling their flagship to, to quote Thom *[sic] "users who buy my 1200 pages guidebook to use their "automatically everything" wonder and don't even know how to download and open the PDF" my view is that the Japanese manufacturers are being sensitive to over promising during this extremely painful transition. Having a six figures toolkit (not atypical sports pro investment just buy a couple of super telephotos and the accompanying bits) made obsolete and second class over night naturally offends American and most western sensibilities.

Edit: spelling of EVF first line; can be instead of are first sentence; about not able para2; under sold story for story told para3

The primary not secondary effect of random sampling is noise.

Remember that John Sculley has been the only one who could. Kinda. Sculley invented the Pepsi Challenge, (and infamously failed it on camera) signed Michael Jackson to promote and went off to Cupertino and did some interesting things there too. But Coca-Cola Company had Michael Bay and still does. If you're dealing in visual impact imagination Michael Bay's a trump card.

My advisor taught me that the point of a citation is not to give your opinion on which other papers are good or bad; it's to tell the editors which other scientists should be on your paper's review committee

As a professional consumer of academic papers paying commercial rates for decades I appreciate your candor profoundly. Nevertheless what you say is a statement at least of disingenuity and in my opinion prima facie admission of the existence of a defrauded system.

Real investors making real investment decisions don't know in advance whether sectors like VR or 3D printing or clean tech or low-code/no-code or etc. are going to be hot or duds, they have to guess

Did you just baseline against a random walk?

If so, then at least 60 years of quant investing will beat the model control sample.

Erm, it's VW due to overtake Tesla for EV sales by the end of this year.

Edit: ouch that statement might have been correct if VW hadn't sold out annual production by May and supply chain problems hamper ramp up. So it's predicted for 2024 VW BEV sales will exceed those of Tesla.
