for all the screen recordings we use Screen Studio by Adam Pietrasiak. Really a all in one workhorse for everything screen recording related.
The main teaser video was made by our incredible video editor Célestin (https://www.celest.in/) who is working with After Effects, Premiere and Blender.
No one is going to pay you more unless they think you're valuable and you're departure is a credible possibility.
I know it's a lot of work, but the best strategy is to interview for jobs consistently and regularly, regardless of whether you are happy with your current job. Shop around your offers, get companies to fight over you. Use all the leverage you have. You don't get more money without demanding it.
Power and money are never given, they are only taken.
At my 2nd full-time job, starting as a junior in a team, I got a higher starting salary than what I was comfortable asking at the interview, plus got a yearly 10% salary increase for the next 5+ years. When I left the company I still got invited to the Christmas party, even though I was no longer working for them. Also, the local managing director grew out from being a developer 15+ years prior (in the same company), and new all his 300+ employees by name. There are always exceptions to a rule.
Paradoxically, the BEST time to job hunt and negotiate is when you're in a job you really like.
This sucks, of course, for all sorts of reasons, but it's amazing how much "Actually I really like my current job, so you'd need to pay (some big number) to get me to move" will sway people more than "well I think market rate is about X"
This is good knowledge. You probably can't say you know directly. But build a case for asking for more and you now know an upper limit (you can even go a bit higher). Try to find a local salary survey, that can be very helpful. Good Luck :)
I was confused by that for a minute, but I don’t think it is in anyway related to the rest of the comment. He was just pointing out a mistake and making a separate point about being a good open source Citizen
Craters, or lack thereof. They assume some rate of impacts, validate against other parts of the surface, other planets, and Chiron. No craters, the surface has been remodeled too recently for impacts to mark it.
Hi Jake, I wish you the best of luck. My only suggestion would be to proof read it again. I found a few obvious mistakes. e.g. " I learned to do a lot of non technical things things as well"
Just to add to that, this sentence needs reworking: " I have a ton of experience developing web applications, but I have worked with a variety of platforms and technologies to build software and have deployed software to the web, Mac OS X, and Linux."
The word "but" does not sit well there. There is no "but" :)
Retrograde advantage. I listen to my scanner and have some aviation interests and it seems a depressing truism that nobody ever needs helicopter ambulance service right next to a wanna be helipad in perfect weather. The human pilots are quite skilled and seem to fly almost by feel in the worst conditions. Lots of on site judgment calls about winds and power lines and trees and obstacles.
Something I think likely / inevitable is assistant drones flying in formation with a rescue chopper very closely coupled to the chopper autopilot. Its easy for a surprise wind gust to kill a chopper, but if you have a perimeter drone force hovering in perfect formation 100 meters away, you have 100 meters warning for the autopilot to react and prepare. Not to mention the usefulness of a drone for exotic rescue (ferry that rope down the gully for us to climb down and reach the victim) or accident scene lighting under bad conditions.
In theory it should be cheaper to fly, there's much less going on mechanically in a fixed rotor and there doesn't seem to be a pilot. However, I'm pretty sure that people have shown that creating human-scale quads is actually impossible with current battery tech. So, IMHO this is just another design that doesn't have anything to do with what is possible in the real world today.
For a quadcopter you need very fine control of the rotors, making a combustion engine hard to use. So then you will need to do combustion -> dynamo -> electricity -> electric motor.
A helicopter is controlled in a completely different way.
Larger multicopters are free to use alternative control methods. The method used in toy multicopters is both inexpensive and cheap yet other options do exist.
A quadrotor doesn't have any sort of 'redundancy'. If you lose a rotor, you've lost control, and will be hitting the ground in pretty short order. I see multiple rotors as a disadvantage... more things to go wrong.
That depends heavily on your control system and how well you've tested it. In theory, a control system for a quadcopter that has independently controllable rotors could keep itself stable if one goes out. In practice, any control path you haven't tested probably won't work.
I'm not sure that's feasible. I've been flying multi-rotors for quit some time and if you lose a motor on a quad it's nearly instantaneously on a collision course with the ground. Y-6 or Hexacopter would be more feasible from a redundancy standpoint.
Potentially allow the vehicles to go to hostile environments (battlezones), bad weather conditions, and of course, epidemic zones (like ebola-struck regions). It will save pilot lives (crucial when there is a major event and many pilots are needed). And it will help contain disease.
It's a drone so we can assume that at least most of the piloting will be done by the computer. So you could have EMT just enter the address press "Fly", adjust lever to Fast and wait.
Nope, it's less stable as the giant rotor acts as a large gyroscope. Quad copters work well with ultra-light weight electric motors, but the concept is focused on quickly changing how fast the blades spin so it does not scale very well.
@lultimouomo having a real-time computer to control four rotors in not something unachievable with current technology :) I would say that it's becoming almost a DIY tech.
