@aaronpk Hey Aaron! Just wanted to say THANK YOU for all the videos you're putting out. :D I just picked up the ATEM Mini Pro. As a wedding photographer, things have gotten a bit, hectic.. So I am offering streams now. I had a question though, how long can I run and HDMI cord?

Thanks! HDMI cable length is pretty limited, and unfortunately there's no hard and fast rule. It depends on the cable itself as well as the strength of the signal put out by the camera. Generally you won't get more than 20 feet in the best case scenario though.

Q for web marketers:
What, if anything, would nudge you (& your company) to *pay* to attend a virtual conference?

Been asked by some friends in that field, but struggled to come up with compelling answers.

can someone point me to a CSS tutorial "this is for folks who used to be pretty decent at CSS from about 2004–2014 but who haven't really written much since and floats aren't what people use anymore so what do I do?"

I had way too much fun doing this. Some people thought I was seriously a CVS Receipt Designer. Thank you to @ADotMartin for the inspiration. https://www.reddit.com/r/mac/comments/f6de3n/im_a_receipt_designer_for_cvs_pharmacy_ama/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

I don’t understand.

It's not a good argumentative technique:

"A straw man is a form of argument ... based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not presented by that opponent."

Oh, how is it particularly evil or capitalist to have the concept that something existed before something else?

because it's literally defined as existing before health insurance. don't strawperson this argument.

@aaronpk what was the name of the controller app that you use on your iPad for the ATEM Mini?

It's called Strata Macros! I talk about my workflow with it in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNzU-TPdxR4

One of the reasons I dislike stacked line graphs so much. It's so hard to see the performance of each item. This tells the same story but allows you to pull apart the weaker players.

I find it so interesting that people want free content from us daily, but then get so tilted when we make some money or do a sponsorship or something

Would you prefer I just make thousands of hours worth of content and make nothing?

Would you prefer I quit and get a job?

There's a domain still in my @namecheap shopping cart, and I genuinely don't remember what the project idea was for that domain. I guess it's good that I didn't actually buy it.
