Wow its crazy how much your taste for color grading changes over time.

Heres a sample with 6 months difference between the two.

Someone needs to tell me how to effectively get the table in the shot like that. How close is the camera to the surface of the desk? Are you looking down at the camera in these?

What have I missed? I'm guessing it's likely a bunch of 'long tail use cases' e.g. turning off water main for a broken pipe.

I'm not against smart homes! Just saying we need to drill down a bit and find better, more pragmatic use cases.

Probably my favorite "smart home" feature is the bed is tied into the whole system so the lights come on and off contextually. It sounds simple but it's so nice. I talk more about it here https://aaronparecki.com/2019/11/07/1/home-automation

Looks like a “true simmer” is actually lower in temperature. What I’ve been calling a kind of simmer for years is really a kind of low boil.

I think this old physics major has become the punchline of the “imagine a spherical cow” joke .

My main argument is that you can't cook the pasta faster even if the water is boiling harder, because water can't get hotter than boiling.

The temperature of the water is the same, either way. Your method is the more climate-friendly and energy-saving.

you wouldn’t believe the number of times I’ve tried explaining this to a certain someone...

You know, even if you are fully vaccinated you still need to check signature, issuer, audience, expiration... 😛

You forget the rest of the stuff in my rack… this doesn’t really give me anything I don’t already have.

If this was my Extreme to keep, I would. But this is just on loan.

if you keep playing with it long enough I can guarantee you're gonna want to hold on to it

If you were closer I’d say drop one off for my Post Production World class tomorrow! Oh well.

Ah well, next time! I have some (mostly functional) prototypes I need to get rid of so don't be surprised if one of those shows up, unless you want to buy one of the "real" ones tomorrow 😉

Haha have you expanded your design to accommodate this beast?

I sure did! It's launching tomorrow, and it's the reason I have made no videos for the past 6 weeks

I guess this (mini) tip on the Mini isn’t so mini after all.

The only thing missing from this picture is a nice stand for your ATEM Mini Extreme to attach all that gear to... 🤔😉

@aaronpk I've spent the past few days setting up InideAuth, microsub and micropub. Pretty happy with it. I'm now at the point where I need to parse all those micropub posts into a nice feed, like the one you have on your website. What tool did you use for that?

Nice! The thing that does most of the work for me is all in a library XRay:

https://github.com/aaronpk/xray

It normalizes content from Microformats feeds as well as Twitter and other stuff. Then it's a matter of reformatting the resulting JSON into a nice feed using some templates
