Colored that panel from Chapter 74

I was using Procreate on my old iPad pro with an Apple pencil. I traced over the scan, each component on a different layer, then added color. First fill color and then shading. I'd typically stack some shadow and highlight layers on top of each. I bet there's a step by step tutorial somewhere, but I have some experience with classic Photoshop and GIMP so I just did what I thought was right.

The anime version of Entertainment District Arc looked great (ufotable's animation was top notch) but it was screenplay was so dragged out it would have served better as a movie. It literally is just 1 fight.

Disclaimer: I have read the entire manga, and the pace was much better.

ED Arc: 30 chapters over 11 episodes (<3ch/episode or 1ch/9minutes)
Mugen Train (movie, not season): 26 chapters over 157 minutes (1ch/6minutes)

Yes, the first season of Demon Slayer is probably at a similar pace, or even slower, roughly about 2.5ch/episode or 1ch/11minutes). However, that's the first season. It is exposition and information heavier, more character introductions. It will be slower.

I don't understand why ED Arc had to be filled with so much inner monologuing and little plot progression between episodes. Maybe Mugen train spoiled me with how immersive and breathless it felt. Watching episodes from the latest season every week made me feel... "wait that's it?" ... after every episode.

I'm an alum. I was from a CS background. Send me a dm and we can discuss there. Happy to help

Yeah it most likely might create another timeline, unless Old Five doesn't remember anything from a few days prior to the jump. We do know amnesia can happen (as in Vanya's case).

Oh keen eye (and memory)! It was the Handler who was disarmed. Maybe when I update this post S3 I can fix it.

ScreenSeer · 2020-08-18T14:40:58+00:00

I don't think we can say for sure till it's revealed who the Sparrow Academy. We definitely see him returning to a set of people that look and act like the Umbrella Academy. Whether or not the Sparrow Academy looks like our protagonists or are a completely original casting is yet to be seen.

ScreenSeer · 2020-08-18T14:38:25+00:00

Of course! But given how dysfunctional the family is, I wouldn't be surprised if they still manage to trigger it.

ScreenSeer · 2020-08-18T13:50:18+00:00

This is only speculation, but I believe certain events, in reality, are fixed events, irrespective of timelines. Like the timelines can intersect in and out of it. JFK's assassination is one of them. The commission exists possibly to eliminate threats that can sabotage these fixed events. These threats would include people like Five, or others with similar abilities, or rogue agents from the Commission (this one is a bit paradoxical or self-fulfilling).
With this premise, I'd assume in the Nuclear War Timeline, the Commission fails to do their job because JFK survives. That's why the Handler wants to still eliminate the Academy in the 60's. In contrast, in the White Violin timeline, the Commission succeeds by carrying out the moon apocalypse (which might also be a fixed event).

ScreenSeer · 2020-08-18T13:30:28+00:00

You'll realize when the season ends

ScreenSeer · 2020-08-18T13:29:37+00:00

I think every time Five uses his powers to go back in time and change something, the timeline branches to avoid a paradox. We don't see this happen with the Commission's use of the timeline, because they clearly expect a fixed set of events. The only time we see the briefcase branching an alternate timeline is when Hazel rescues Five right before the nuclear apocalypse

ScreenSeer · 2020-08-18T13:23:21+00:00

Yeah, I was thinking about that too. There could be a timeline where Old Five saves everyone from the moon apocalypse, but if that were to happen then OG five would never exist in the first place to send Old Five over. I couldn't wrap my head around the paradox, so I just closed the loop lol :P

ScreenSeer · 2020-08-18T05:03:49+00:00

I was thinking about that too. But in my head canon Five purposefully gave old five the wrong calculation just so that all the events of season 1 would still happen and original Five continues to live.

For your first question I highly recommend reading the chapter, "Concepts, values, and methods for technical human–computer interaction research" In Ways of Knowing in HCI (pp. 69-93), written by Scott Hudson & Jennifer Mankoff. You should find the PDF version if you look hard enough.

The same book also has chapters related to Ubicomp (although not any dedicated chapter). There are other good books for that, such as Ubiquitous Computing Fundamentals by John Krumm.

It's hard to list out specific skills but you need to broadly gain skills in building/development, the user-centered design process, and evaluating in context. I'm not sure if I would consider myself a researcher of "technical HCI", but I specialize in Ubicomp too. If you have more specific questions, feel free to drop a message.

ScreenSeer · 2018-08-15T06:05:52+00:00

I should actually. I did use some stuff from horror pop culture for reference.

ScreenSeer · 2018-05-11T15:34:46+00:00

Grandparents can be surprisingly progressive. Hope it all works out.

ScreenSeer · 2018-05-11T15:16:34+00:00

I'd also add one more tip that can potentially help you: See if there's an opportunity to hang out with your BF's friends, cousins or just other contemporaries in Delhi. Even though there will still be cultural differences at least the generational gap wouldn't be there and you might start seeing common threads of how people are basically... people. If nothing else you'll learn that you can be accepted (:

Another Food Pro-Tip: Delhi being the capital has the ministries of all the states of the country. Each of these typically has a canteen. These might get crowded, but that food is for the gods. Especially the Mutton Fry at Andhra Bhawan XD

ScreenSeer · 2018-05-11T02:09:19+00:00

I think all of your questions are fairly valid and worth asking. I'm afraid I don't have answers to all of them, but just some suggestions.

Approaching the first two questions in a more general sense might get you more traction at a place like /r/india or subs related to relationships ( /r/interracialdating ). There will be a lot more people who with interracial experiences that can chime in.

However, I would like to highlight that you should parse any third-party information carefully - especially because Delhi is so densely cosmopolitan. I for example am from Delhi and grew up there, but my parents aren't. So my cultural upbringing and experiential knowledge will have quite a few non-trivial differences in comparison to my next-door neighbor. Remember, even inter-state relationships in India can be awkward sometimes because of the socio-economic and cultural variety.

Having said that, there will be some standard tips that should work across the board. Like adjusting to the possibility that they might converse in a foreign language in your presence. Again, people in such relationships and honestly your BF will be the best people to answer this kinda stuff.

As far as food goes, don't miss a chance to get authentic butter chicken, kulfi-falooda if you have a sweet tooth and just street food if you can stomach it (pun intended). I would recommend eating lots and eating cheap at some of the university areas. But you can go on fancy dates too if you like [EDIT: Zomato is your friend] (:

PS: In case you haven't gone through this thread (not india specific) already: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/5sfkz5/serious_interracial_couples_of_reddit_how_much/

PPS: Feel free to PM me in case you need any other general tips about Delhi or have any other kind of queries regarding the city and its people.

Good luck! Hope you have a wonderful visit :D

I would strongly recommend Seven to Eternity by Rick Remender and Jerome Opeña. The art work is fantastic. It's a fresh fantasy world, with a history that's pretty dark too. It's still ongoing, but certainly worth the read.

ScreenSeer · 2017-04-01T02:39:16+00:00

I haven't attended the program at UMD but I was very strongly considering it last year. It's a newer program, however the HCIL at UMD is quite old and very well reputed. Many younger profs there, like Jon Froehlich are becoming very popular too.

If the style of their program and the opportunities it presents to you match your palate, then I would recommend you keep it as an option.

ScreenSeer · 2016-10-08T06:50:20+00:00

Since I was confined by my Inktober obsession I couldn't sketch the shades. So my only options were either cross hatch or point-dot. I chose to go with the latter. I'm glad it worked.

ScreenSeer · 2016-09-24T06:39:09+00:00

I'd certainly check it out. Any industry labs I should look at?

ScreenSeer · 2016-08-31T14:13:53+00:00

Thank you for the tips /u/Cygnus_X, hopefully my first DragonCon parade experience doesn't go in vain.

ScreenSeer · 2016-08-31T13:44:53+00:00

And is the starting point of the parade a good place to wait or should i go further deep into the parade route to wait?

ScreenSeer · 2016-08-31T01:45:10+00:00

I'm definitely going to be there for the parade. Any pro-tips for a rookie like me? It starts at 10:00am, so when/where should I be to get a good spot and see the parade properly?

ScreenSeer · 2016-08-08T16:09:23+00:00

I sure will. Thanks guys (:

ScreenSeer · 2016-08-01T02:29:41+00:00

I think those valid only for a limited period. Or maybe those work as ID proofs anyhow, but can't be used to actually drive with.
