SEEKING WORK | Brazil, GMT -3 | Remote | Filmmaker | Video Editor

machado.cristhal@gmail.com

Hello! My name is Cristhal and every day that I have a new video project is a happy day. I really love my work!

I have been filming and editing videos for more than 5 years now. When working on my videos I really try to look at the "big picture", trying to create sensations and pass beauty, desires and emotions. I think I achieved a unique way to editing my videos, where everything is connected and the result feels very real and natural.

I'm super responsive. I also speak Portuguese. I'm on GMT-3 timezone.

Here are some examples of my work:

So thank you for reading this. Hope we can work on a project together, bye!
And it is completely impossible for the user to do so.

So, the tool is worthless if you want to use it legally.
Thanks! I would love to hear from you directly about your cooking experience or any feedback on the app. Email me any time :)
Yes, and someone who's followed the case pretty closely agrees with you:

> Except, Siggi retracts nothing substantive that is alleged in the indictment, so this drama is instead a demand that you accept the word of a liar rather than read the documents to show that the liar’s claims are irrelevant to the charges against Assange.

I switched to Alexa just because I hated saying hey google.

I do use the computer wake work and it’s indeed annoying but the fun makes it worth it for me lol
That's not even gig economy, it's just cutting employee benefits and rights by pretending they're contractors. Same thing uber does, it seems.

The gig economy is good in theory - being able to work a few extra hours freelance when you need some extra cash, but giant scummy companies are trying to pretend that this is what they offer in order to screw over their full time employees.

This one is in line with The Register's style. It fits in when on their site and reading from there.

But out of context and seen in a news aggregator, it indeed looks really funny.
I would think that most front end developers already know JavaScript. It might make sense to look at some other approaches like Go (and maybe Rust/C/C++), which is designed for back-end work unlike JavaScript which was basically shoehorned into back-end work in order to leverage all the JavaScript developers in many companies.
AFAIK you can't easily check keys, but current behavior is still much better:

1. Android only allow you to update existing apps with APK signed by the same key. Google can't just push you update that gonna steal app data.

2. After you installed an app through Google Play you can safely update it from different APK source and know that it signed by correct developer. This is helpful when app you being using through Google Play blocked in your country or something.

It has the same issue that the other suggestion of your parent comment had: it can’t deal with fractions of cents, which is an issue you will most likely run into before you will into floating point rounding issues.
Who said there's an average of 3-4 packages per delivery?

I wonder how prevalent those storage lockers are on a typical route … the last few places that I’ve lived have had Amazon or Luxer lockers, ranging from a couple dozen to maybe 100+ individual spaces. The 400/day seems a little more feasible if a quarter or half can be dropped in the same location, but I really have no idea how ubiquitous those lockers are.
You think too well of the Hacker News crowd.

On the whole, HN readers ARE reactionary. Whether it's about technology or politics, submissions like these, which ask the user to examine their own views, always end up inviting controversy.

But it's always with politics--specifically, with regards race and gender--where it becomes most obvious.
Yes and hence like warehouse workers not taking bathroom breaks for fear of being "off-task" Amazon drivers cut corners too. I have seen them blowing through stop signs, and one of them after blowing through a stop sign, ripped a three point turn and came within one foot of my car before my beeping stopped them.

I called Amazon and they of course speak of them like they are some completely separate affiliate that has nothing to do with them. This is despite the fact they say Amazon and deliver only Amazon packages.
I agree. Imagine finding something like a Pachycephalosaurus skeleton without a modern education.

If you're in a pre-civilized, just-barely-scraping-by survival mode, you'd probably conclude: (1) this thing was a monster, and if it lived here I'm not safe. (2) This thing must have been killed by something worse, and if it's around I'm really not safe.

What grief should I come visit on you, so that you can prove your point by accepting that the responsibility is all on you to deal with my action and not even 50% mine for commiting the action?
Yeah, let’s only focus on the production problem. There is totally no demand for oil or plastics. I assume you are typing this on a laptop or cellphone that has plastic parts.
Our entire global economic system is predicated on companies never facing consequences for their actions. Given our astoundingly poor response to COVID, I don't think we're going to solve climate change. The human race has decided that selfishness and greed are virtues and this is the result.
There is a possible structure that could work. But it would not be a simple add-on. It would require a restructuring. No loans. Medical should be profit free but with investment, and justice, well that needs a complete rethink doesn't it.
If you buy quality goods from companies that care about their products and customers you will barely need any return guarantees. If you buy Amazon junk on the other hand...
It might sound depressingly fatalistic, but I suspect designer babies by mechanisms like this are inevitable.

After all, once a means of improving IQ/health/height/whatever is available, it only takes one country to refuse to ban it and what are the other countries going to do - let that country run away with the prize?

There are few examples where the international community has managed such a feat, and many examples where they haven't.
Feel free to email them over, sure. (Full disclosure, I'm sometimes terrible with reply latency.)

And FWIW, you actually tripped over a small longer-term cluster of internal grumbling - I like my screen to be completely blank at startup, and I've stared unimpressed at AE_NOT_FOUND-like messages (including that exact string) on my own system before I get to a login prompt.

So what kinda started out at "hmm, that's probably a misclassified priority or something..." ended up as a small wall of GitHub torvalds/linux links. Woops. (And then I didn't figure it out anyway... hmph)
Then name a usage of the tool that is legally sound. I can not think of one.

All pretty cheap compared to the labor costs.
I agree. I am happier using my iPad Pro, and some languages are supported (Swift Playgrounds, Pythonista, LispPad (nice Scheme implementation) and there is always using Blink as a mosh client for using servers).

I think that Playgrounds will be a good app development environment sooner than you think. The problem is that Swift is by far not my favorite language (those would be Common Lisp, Racket Scheme, Haskell). I don’t doubt that the iPad Pro will soon be a very good Swift and SwiftUI dev kit. Off topic, but I started wring a Swift artificial intelligence book, but I put it on hold. Swift just does not give me the joy that Lisp languages do. However, for most Apple platform developers, Swift and SwiftUI is all they need.
> That's why sometimes I think working in IT or software should require a license.

IMO the problem isn't lack of training or another licensing scheme but the lack of budget companies allocate to QA & Security.
Conversely, any UPS driver is about guaranteed a handful of business stops that have a dozen to several dozen packages at the stop.
Makes sense. Maybe something like git-lfs/git-annex would be sufficient to address the linking issue, but it seems like the bigger concern is whether a court would accept this as valid attribution. In a sense it reminds me of the LavaBit stunt with the printed key.
Love that they refer to a reactor that ran unsupervised for millennia without any major incidents ;-)
Well either there's a bounce, or some other indicator in the postfix logs (collected by filebeat, with alertings in kibana).

If I'd still be getting blackholed with a "250 delivered" in my logs, then screw it.

I would even argue people hosting their small selfmanaged mail servers helps preventing monopolization, eg. "only allow mail from google".
That's interesting, I can't say that I've ever seen an Amazon delivery truck. I've only hit non UPS/USPS driver when getting something big that required freight delivery.

I suppose that the article goes in the same pile as the 'how Costco pressures vendors', 'how Walmart beats up it's employees', ranging back to manufacturing companies, traveling farm labor, and block haulers on the pyramids.
>We'll let you sell in our market as long as you sign away all your IP is the same as we'll let you in on presidential press meetings as long as you'll say nice things.

Those are not comparable at all though. One is a law that the US seem to believe is A Good Thing to try to enforce everywhere, but that doesn't make it universally true, while the other is preferential treatment (or corruption, abuse of power). One can be bad (it's not in this example IMO) while the other is always bad.

But mailbox.org is also priced per mailbox by default. When I checked with Mailbox.org support a few years ago, there was no way to go beyond 25 aliases on a single mailbox (even when one is willing to pay).
No, it's just that we're in the realm of predictions and modelling, not accounting. If you're constructing a curve to forecast 50 years of interest rates from a limited set of instruments, you're already accepting a margin of error orders of magnitude greater than the inaccuracies introduced by floating point.

The models also use transcendental functions which cannot be accurately calculated with fixed point, rationals, integers etc.
> We should use the original title but something like a misleading flair would be helpful.

When the mods find a title to be problematic, they go ahead and replace it with something better. This seems better than keeping and flagging problematic titles (the approach used on reddit).
You can't really reason with True Believers, especially not if you're someone they already deeply distrust.
I’ve always wondered this about the realistic photo generators. How do we know they’re generating new faces and not just regurgitating ingested faces?
From the fourth paragraph in the article from “ivfbabble” linked at the top of the article:

“Those at the forefront of science around childbirth still face major ethical questions and arguments. We do not seem to have learned to trust our scientists.”

An author should not be asking the public to trust scientists. Scientific results should stand on their own or not at all.

For what it’s worth, the very existence of the author (and by extension, the article) shows that IVF meets this criteria.

Sorry for the soapbox, but I’ll still show up the next time anybody suggests I should “trust science” or even worse, uses the term “settled science”. Both terms are fundamentally incompatible with the scientific method.
> Is that the real problem, in your opinion?

I suppose the best answer I can give is what I said in another sub-thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27711219

> useless bla bla at a time when we may be witnessing the actual sunset of American democracy

Must we devote literally 100% of our time to discussing "serious" issues? Looking at the front page of HN right now, I see a lot of stories that could be considered "useless bla bla" the only difference being that they're "useless bla bla" of interest to a particular audience. The OP might be of interest primarily to another - historical, etymological - audience, but that doesn't make it lesser. Discussing other topics, even those far more frivolous than this one, can be considered a form of rest and recreation. Even literal soldiers get time for that, because it avoids exhaustion and makes them more able to fight when it really matters.

If it's not your cup of tea, or even not a high priority for you, that's OK. But I don't think suppressing discussion of it will help wrt getting people to discuss the issues you do consider important. It's not a zero-sum game.
Essentially yes. It's an in browser editor that deploys your code as a public API endpoint as you type. It has the functionality of Lambda + API Gateway + Cloudwatch Logs with a lot of other utilities built in to expedite building small serverless functions
We've passed the point where openly gifting your work to the world is just that. Now its political and incurs ongoing social obligations and maybe even legal liabilities.

If the problem is the inequality of individuals vs corporations in law; lets address that problem, rather than making corporations to serve as conservators of individual rights because the law no longer does that.
What a terrifying way to work!
As if the high-tech solution didn't have to be maintained?

Anyway, that's what cheap labour does, it leads to stagnation. Why invest in to improve the state of the art when you can throw more bodies at the problem?

There's also the other problem: Jeff Bezos strip-mines the workforce and takes the gains to Washington. Meanwhile his underpaid employees can't invest in their own communities.
You left out Iran.

Neat! Seems like what's old is new again. I'm up to the same shenanigans (sans java, TCL and a graph database). spreadsheets are a great medium to provide non-technical people access to adjusting production with nuanced precision.
> Can you give an example?

The answer is the same as _any_ time you should use floats: where you don't care about answers being exact, either (1) because calculation speed is more important than exactness, or (2) because your inputs or computations involve uncertainty anyway, so it doesn't matter.

This is more likely to be the case in, say, physics than it is in finance, but it's not impossible in the latter. For example, if you are a hedge fund and some model computes "the true price of this financial instrument is 214.55", you certainly want to buy if it's being sold for 200, and certainly don't if it's being sold for 250, but if it's being sold for 214.54, the correct interpretation is that _you aren't sure_.

When people say "you should never use floats for currency", their error is in thinking that the only applications for currency are in accounting, billing, and so on. In those applications, one should indeed use a decimal type, because we do care about the rounding behavior exactly matching human customs.
I think their point is that you probably can't compare these two numbers very well because they measure different things, and in the case of Amazon if on average they have 3-4 packages per delivery then the two companies would have very similar numbers.
Sidenote, I hate "cant compare apples to oranges" because you eminently can. I'd argue it is much easier to compare things that are very similar! Apples and oranges both have sugars and acids, skins, are recognized as fruits, and are frequently interchangeable. Comparing apples to cranes is much more difficult. "comparing apples to oranges" should mean the comparison is relatively easy to make on a variety of axes!
I'm curious - how did you come to this conclusion?
I find it incredible that they hide the title of the current tab. While it's active, you can only see its URL, and you have to switch to another tab to see its title. This is madness, no?
Thanks for the link. I'll take a read when I have some time :)

If there is a small core, it's not necessarily obvious. Yes, a lot of things are pushed out to libraries, but even the basic language features, liked (defn) (cond) (ns) threading etc. - are all implemented through macros. There is prolly a small subset of the language is which is actually made of language primitives implemented in Java or JS. From a language development point of view this probably makes life much easier. And if you wanted to port Clojure to a different backend then that'd probably be much easier than a language where syntax is added more explicitly. There is a design elegance to it, but as a language user it really makes no difference if a feature is a macro or language primitive. I mean to say Clojure isn't big, but it's not some barebones Scheme-y thing either. It probably has a Scheme-y core, but you'd need to root around to find it
> Since that point their growth rate has been quicker, they just got started later.

That's not true. You can see the historical growth rates for China and Korea here:
https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.KD.ZG?end=2... . China's growth rate at no point in time was greater than Korea's was in the 1970s and 1980s.
Employee opinion is linked to company opinion. Insofar as the market cares what a company thinks about politics, having the wrong opinions can hurt the company.

If you force a company to keep a "disruptive" employee, can you force a customer to purchase from that company?
> Could you explain why this is sub-optimal? It's sub-optimal because of the added risk?

What usually happens is that they make it a quarterly or annual target, so they do things that expensive in the long term to hit the target for the period.

For example, I can increase my profit for the quarter in an airline by deferring maintenance, so the plane flies more. But if the plane ends up being out of service for longer next year because of that decision, that is sub-optimal.

Another thing they can do is shift revenue around or offer large future discounts for upfront orders or shift project work depending on when end of year is. All things that are suboptimal, but work for the numbers.

As a non financial example, one company I worked for had quarterly goals around test coverage. But they didn't really budget time for it. It was just expected that it would somehow be done.

What happened was that worthless tests that called as much code as possible without testing anything were written to hit the coverage number. So even when time was available to write tests, the perception was that we already had test coverage so they never got fixed.
I should clarify that comment with if you made a naïve assumption of 3-4 packages per delivery then it's a similar workload. I don't doubt that Amazon workers are treated worse than UPS workers but comparing packages to deliveries without normalizing somehow is not productive.

The 400 package number from the article is also specifically cited from this company and we have no idea whether that is a nationwide figure while the UPS comment implies that it is.
Unification as goal seems foolish, but I'm not entirely sure that's what Apple is doing. So far they're mostly unifying things that make sense, and avoiding things that don't. The Safari changes may change my mind once I actually use them, though.

I think the bigger issue from Apple is that they seem to feel the need to change something visible and obvious about MacOS with every release, and while not all of those changes are in service of unification with iOS, many of those changes seem unnecessary at best, and counter-productive at worst.

The "unification" label is more a product of observers than Apple themselves. They have repeatedly stated explicitly that they have no intention of merging the two OSes, and I believe them on that. So far.
That is some epic clickbait. The actual paper [1] is far less exciting. It does not talk about "terror pigs" nor "radioactive pigs". tldr; domestic pigs have been breeding with wild boar in a "wild area" devoid of humans.

> We found that there were likely successful hybridization events in the evacuation zone ... we speculate two hypotheses ... (i) an abundant wild boar population caused increasing introgression of wild boar genes into the invasive pigs and a decreasing introgression of invasive genes into the wild boar with the increase in the distance from the invasion source. (ii) The pig legacy passed on to the next-generation hybrids was dependent on the ability of pigs to naturalize in the wild area of Japan.

The people whose attitudes don't align with Facebook will recognize this paternalism for what it is. Those people whose attitude align with Facebook won't. That's been my experience with these kinds of things.
Publishers don't send a game key to a "let's play" channel ... have an influencer use their product.

Is a let’s player a creator or an influencer? Yes, they are playing someone else’s game. Yet many people prefer to watch their favourite let’s player over playing the game themselves. This indicated to me that the let’s player is creating some value that the game alone did not have.

It may be, for some people, that they want to save money by not buying a game and instead enjoying the story as provided by their favourite let’s player. On the other hand, lots of people like to play the game alongside the let’s player and talk about it with the community. They also donate money to the let’s player directly so it isn’t necessarily about saving money.

I think there is real value in these communities that gets built up around a game or genre of games, especially during the pandemic. Many people who would otherwise not get a lot of socialization in their lives are able to socialize with those in their favourite let’s player and streamer communities.
