(Ninja is an Assassin, Tamer is Mobile DPS.) Not to mention we have nobody that uses dark magic, no DPS Tanks (Zerk is a drain tank, Valk is a DPS Tank) or mobile DPS. but there are are a few notable archetypes missing from the male side like Noble, Antagonist, etc. Females have every archetype here from little girl, ninja girl, buff girl, soft girl, powerful girl, etc. I'm not saying having female characters is bad, but can we get some male characters? I feel like guys who like playing as guys have little representation. And now they've released it, but its a female character. Every time i stop playing the game I say I'll come back when they release a new tank/bruiser character. We have almost double the female characters than male characters.

I got to spend time with the GX, a previous model, which cost $3,299 and is no longer in production. But can you put a price on love? Probably. Today, Gocycle offers two models on its webstore and from authorized dealers: the $4,000 G4, and the G4i, which clocks in at $5,000. The Gocycle GX 2020, which I had the chance to ride. Ah, the memories we shared, my e-bike and me… I almost felt that it would have been better if I’d never been given the chance to test out a Gocycle at all. The notoriously rollicking route is quiet, the perfect setting for the final ride of an e-biker and his beloved (foldable) hog. I’m cruising around the northwest corner of the bike path in the park. I’m not riding with Gocycle founder Richard Thorpe this afternoon, though, as much as I’d love to pick his brain on how he built a bike that seems to glide peacefully above the ground like a flying saucer. ![]() I was allowed one final ride on my (or rather, formerly my) folding e-bike, which I’m referring to as “the Cadillac of E-Bikes” because it sounds sharp, but it should really be compared to the McLaren, since the gorgeously sculpted marvel of carbon fiber transportation was designed by the guy who used to be a design engineer for the British super car company. It was sunny in Brooklyn's Prospect Park, the wide-stretching landscape of rolling hills, ponds full of turtles and geese, and constant, constant barbecues that provided such indispensable refuge during isolated times. ![]() I had to say goodbye to my Gocycle a few weeks back. ![]() The breed and the bird are part and parcel, he said. In our 800 acres farm breeding facility we have the space set aside and now the talent and leadership to specifically select pedigree birds into alternative diets to reduce the use of corn and soy, which is not being studied at all,” he told us. "So we have just brought on a PhD in poultry science nutrition, and a regenerative feed manager to build new poultry diets that are selected into breed. Regenerative feed modelĪ lot of the work the company is focused on now, and which the funding will go towards, is developing feed alternatives that work in a regenerative system. He is also a former COO and founder of Blue Apron, a US meal-kit firm that grew to $795m in sales in just five years before launching an IPO. Wadiak vision is a new type of environmentally and economically sustainable food system. “If you out there shopping for what you believe to be a product of higher quality, a product free of antibiotics, hormones or ractopamine, and you are spending time and money and feeding your family and friends off of that, you should be able to get what you think you are getting,” said founder and CEO of Cooks Ventures, Matthew Wadiak. “The reason why we should test is that verification via paperwork is inadequate we have seen a lot of label fraud associated with organic and non-GMO products, especially organic products that are imported and falsified at ports, but there is also label fraud associated with claims, specifically around antibiotics. We have been working with Food ID since March 2020 and have tested all our flocks. It is the first test of its kind, and can be done for a few dollars, on the spot, and in real time, giving results on the use of those inputs. “Food ID tests for the presence of antibiotics and other adulterants in meat. Partnership with Food IDįurthermore, through a new partnership with Food ID, a company set up by natural meat stalwart, Bill Niman, Cooks Venture has become the first company in America to test for synthetic inputs it says it can now independently validate that it never uses antibiotics and that it provides verified non-GMO feed to its birds. Its birds take around 60 days to grow, they are raised on a single-stage meal-based feed, one that is currently based on non-GMO soy and corn. The farming method it promotes is one that builds organic matter in the soil with the goal of sequestering more carbon from the atmosphere than it releases. ![]() But to really upend the long-serving US poultry production model, Cooks Venture is looking to apply regenerative agricultural practices to poultry feed and breeding. ![]() ![]() Not to mention DeShawn didn’t have a whole lot to do with the plot or anything at all aside from being there to introduce and develop Will’s character. It’s as if we’re supposed to think, look at how these black people don’t even care about their own people. The fact that this white cop has to convince them, especially the black nurse, that this little boy’s life is worth saving is insulting writing. How is it even possible that the only person who wanted this black kid NOT to die was the white cop? We, the audience, are supposed to like Will because he’s so good and kind and even though black kids hate cops he’ll still do his job and help them! #NotAllCops am I right? The only two other people in these scenes, both black characters, are antagonized - they’re both cruel, refusing to help this kid because he might grow up to be violent. The white savior trope is SO heavy in these scenes. A while later, after DeShawn successfully pulls through surgery this black nurse again insinuates that Will should have just let the kid die because he’d grow up to be a violent gang member who’d probably end up killing a cop. ![]() When they get to the hospital, Will has to practically beg a black female nurse to help the kid, whose name is DeShawn. You do not want to stand there and let this kid die either.”ĭiego: “That’s what he’d do if it was you or me.” In the scene, Will tells Diego, his partner, to get an ambulance and Diego replies, “What? What do you think this is, TV?” The dialogue that follows is this: Will’s partner, who’s an Afro-Latino cop, wanted to just leave the kid there. Let’s discuss the white-savior storyline we get from the very first episode when white police officer Will saves a young black boy from bleeding out from a gunshot wound. Is having LGBT characters and characters of color supposed to enough for us in terms of representation? Because for a show that’s supposed to be progressive or whatever, Sense8 is unbelievably racist. The show features characters of various ethnicities and sexualities and an interesting plot line that could have been captivating enough if only it wasn’t overshadowed with all the problems it brought with it. Sense8 is a popular Netflix show that has been hailed for its diversity and progressiveness since the release of its first season. ![]() Alternatively get yourself a copy of my In Camera book, an official Cameralabs T-shirt or mug, or treat me to a coffee!

The second alliance is L-mount, based on Leica’s full-frame system, but now partnered with Panasonic and Sigma who have both released full-frame bodies and lenses, all of which are compatible with each other. The former employs a Four thirds sensor that’s a little smaller than APS-C and was co-developed by Panasonic and Olympus who share the same mount, allowing them to use each other’s lenses, as well as third party models designed for the system. ![]() The exceptions are two alliances: Micro Four Thirds and L-mount. ![]() Nikon has the Z-mount for APS-C or full-frame bodies. Canon has RF for APS-C or full-frame, as well as the older and now discontinued EF-M mount for APS-C. There’s Fujifilm’s X-mount, designed for APS-C bodies only. There’s Sony’s e-mount which is designed for APS-C or full-frame bodies. Like DSLRs, most manufacturers have developed their own mirrorless system with a lens mount that’s not compatible with rival systems. For me, mirrorless cameras are more compelling than DSLRs in almost every category and price-point, and I personally made the switch ten years ago when Panasonic and Olympus launched Micro Four Thirds, later supplementing my collection with Fujifilm, Canon and Sony gear. Compared to a DSLR there’s inevitably greater power consumption, so batteries won’t last as long, but the latest models are certainly catching-up. The best mirrorless cameras have also banished performance issues of early models and now boast viewfinders with large, detailed images, not to mention focusing and burst shooting capabilities that most DSLRs can only dream of. With 100% electronic composition, you’ll also be able to use a viewfinder for everything you’d see on the screen, including playing images, assisting focus, previewing effects, white balance and colour adjustments, as well as filming and playing movies, and even navigating menus – all much easier in bright conditions than using the screen, not to mention more comfortable for those who are longer-sighted. Since they use their main imaging sensor for focusing, metering and white balance, they also have the potential to track, focus and evaluate subjects right into the corners while also exploiting face and eye-detection, sometimes even for animal subjects. If you’re shopping for a mirrorless camera, you’ve come to the right place! Mirrorless cameras pack the quality, control and flexibility of a DSLR with their large sensors, exposure adjustment and interchangeable lenses, but by dispensing with the mirror, have the potential to be smaller, lighter, quieter and faster. It is super flexible, fast and exclusively designed for gaming purposes. NoxPlayer is Android emulator which is gaining a lot of attention in recent times.

Most general career related questions should be placed in the Monday Career Megathread. Post titles must be a question about engineering and provide context - be specific. You can insert a clutch head security screw with a regular flat-head screwdriver but you cannot use it to remove the screw unless you have a clutch head security screwdriver to release the fastener.Call for Engineers: Tell us about your job! (2020) New to AskEngineers? Read our subreddit rules and FAQ page before posting! Topic Filters Removing this type of screw is very difficult, which is why it's used to discourage theft. The screw head is designed with sloping inserts that help the fastener go into a surface one way permanently. However, a newer style clutch screw, also called a clutch head security screw or irreversible screw, is meant for anti-theft purposes. You can't mistake this type of clutch drive because the screw head hole is shaped like a bowtie, butterfly, or dog bone. For example, the clutch screw has evolved from a drive that was commonly used in the manufacture of mobile homes, recreational vehicles, and classic automobiles and trucks produced in the 1950s. Best for: Use for either older clutch screws or newer clutch anti-theft screwsĪ clutch screwdriver will depend on what type of clutch screw you have.Note that a Frearson screwdriver, commonly used in the marine industry, is similar to a Phillips head screwdriver but its tip may be sharper and has a 45-degree angle for better torque. Go slow to ensure that the screwdriver tip grips the screw properly to avoid stripping the screw head. While Phillips screwdrivers do provide better control and driving power, the tip can still slip out of the screw head if it is driven with too much force. Similar to flathead screwdrivers, there are a wide range of sizes and lengths for Phillips screwdrivers and they also come in both manually driven and electric options. ![]() These tools were developed in the 19th century as an improvement over flathead screwdrivers because the shape of the screwdriver head provides better traction or grip when you are driving or removing screws. Phillips screwdrivers have an X-shaped tip that is made to fit inside the X-shaped notch of a compatible Phillips head screw. ![]() Best for: Driving or removing screws with an X-shaped notch. ![]() This effect can be lessened, but not eliminated, by carefully matching the correct sized driver to the slot in the screw head. The inertia of the screwdriver tip overcomes the friction between the two surfaces, resulting in the screwdriver tip slipping from the screw head. This can happen if the screwdriver is misaligned in the screw head slot, but can also be caused when the amount of torque applied to the screw head exceeds a specific limit. You can find manually driven and electric flathead screwdrivers, though these products are limited by the cam-out effect, which occurs when the screwdriver tip slips off the screw head. These tools can come in various sizes and lengths, including oversized flathead screwdrivers that are useful in automotive work, standard-size screwdrivers for furniture construction, and precision flathead screwdrivers that are suitable for working on computers and other delicate electronics.
“We recognize that kids are spending increasingly more time playing on devices,” says Sterling. She says physical goods are still the largest percentage of the company’s revenue currently, (which the company declined to disclose.) And the exposure alone could help remove the fear factor around coding and computer science in general, which could also benefit them in the long-term.įor GoldieBlox, expanding its product line further into digital is something that’s critical for the company, in terms of its bottom line.Īccording to founder and CEO Debbie Sterling, the company has sold over 1 million toys and is available in over 6,000 retailers, like Barnes & Noble and Toys R’ Us. That’s not the same as saying apps like this can actually get kids to learn to code, though.īut while getting a young girl into coding won’t as simple as plopping them down in front of a game, it certainly can’t hurt. To what extent apps like these actually encourage new users to pick up coding later in life is still something of an unproven concept, however. There has been no real research on whether exposure to coding apps and toys actually build enthusiasm or motivate young players to fully immerse themselves in computer science as they grow older.Īt best, research has proven that classroom exposure can help build CS skills later on, or early exposure can help women stay in the field in college. But the app tries to present these in a way that feels more like play than a school assignment, of course.Įssentially, the app uses storytelling as the hook that pulls in kids and gets them to learn about these coding concepts, which they put into practice as a means of progressing through the game world. In the game, several coding concepts are introduced, including sequential execution, mental modeling, debugging, clean code, and tuning procedural generation. ![]() The map also gets trickier as players progress through the game. The the gameplay involves the company’s flagship character, a young engineer called Goldie, who is trying to deliver cupcakes to everyone in town.īut along the way, players will have to execute a sequence of commands in order for Goldie to pick up ingredients and cupcakes, then deliver them to Bloxtown. As the name implies, the new app’s goal is to teach children, ages four and up, the fundamentals of coding through a puzzle-filled game. GoldieBlox, the educational toy, book and game maker best known for its line of engineering toys aimed at young girls, is expanding its digital footprint today with the launch of its first paid application: GoldieBlox: Adventures in Coding.

I enjoyed Christina's last take on literal interpretations more than this one, but it's hard to resist the allure of an Iverson / Donaldson collab two of my favorite crossworld people. With respect to Modern English, Old English did not include J, U, and W. Especially with the BICENTENNIAL CENTER being outdated, I'd have preferred something easier to spot, like A (PENNY) SAVED IS A (PENNY) EARNED. The Old English alphabet was recorded in the year 1011 by a monk named Byrhtferð and included the 24 letters of the Latin alphabet (including ampersand) and 5 additional English letters: Long S (), Eth (Ð and ð), Thorn (þ), Wynn () and Ash ( later Æ and æ). It is professional enough to satisfy academic standards, but accessible enough to be used by anyone.

CENT isn't easy to imagine in there, either - this geography dummy ARAL as a US time zone and didn't look back. Tremendous thanks and appreciation to all of you.
