ben_vulpes: trajectory tweaks for ballistics or sniper action, though...
ben_vulpes: corners attractive to purchasers in urban combat are unrealistic
ben_vulpes: i find it hard to believe that corners can be turned with the control forces effected by mems systems
ben_vulpes: i am a child of my time
ben_vulpes: i want mems-controlled aero surfaces in my projectiles

ben_vulpes: "please list all people with whom you cohabitated or were in a relationship for the last two years so that we can ask them if you're going to go shoot them"

ben_vulpes: you just move the work into post.
ben_vulpes: there's no easy button.
ben_vulpes: good ol marion county
ben_vulpes: thestringpuller: why bother?
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> the "profession" of photography is not evolving towards going back to film cameras. it's evolving towards drone cameras. they find the right spot on their own, fly around, take a bunch of photos for you etc. << the "red" cameras are another interesting evolution here. by my limited understanding 'filmmakers' are in the habit of blanketing the scene with them and then making zooms/pans/dolly actions happen in post

ben_vulpes: in retrospect though i probably could have negotiated half up front and charged another 25%.

ben_vulpes: but when the codemachine could run just as easily on 60/year...
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: granted, 300/mo is a piddling amount.
ben_vulpes: this is fitting.
ben_vulpes: i will be remembered for derping in public.

ben_vulpes: the only way to change it is to bury it in a sea of "jeez, i guess i was wrong" and subsequent self improvement.

ben_vulpes: immediately after hs she ran the kids program at an art museum
ben_vulpes: oh it goes fair deep
ben_vulpes: which to be fair to the poor art student, is a subtlety of the practice.
ben_vulpes: one bespeaks a fundamental failure to understand the mechanisms at play, the other a poor grasp of thermal inertia and the concept of localized heat stresses.
ben_vulpes: "oops"
ben_vulpes: whereas the "hot oil in cold dish" is more along the lines of sudo rm -rf /
ben_vulpes: i'd liken this one to an iptables fuckup
ben_vulpes: or perhaps more accurately, another edge case has been brought to light.
ben_vulpes: and yes they've been taught.
ben_vulpes: the worlds edge cases are numerous.
ben_vulpes sighs
ben_vulpes: the problem was not actually that a non-rated object went on the burner, but that sweet love put a chicken leg into the hot oil and the local stresses exceeded the crystal's bond strength.
ben_vulpes: and also a lesson in geometric heat distribution.

ben_vulpes: a) let the contract terminate, accept our sw in its current state, shit your pants, blow your demo.
