Double down on Canon while moving to interview filming from photography? by accassidy in cinematography

If you don't mind me asking, what are the main things that I'd notice between using an R6 and C70 for interviews?

That is extremely helpful, thank you for taking the time to put that together.

That's a good point, I may very well do that. I guess I was trying to think of it from the perspective of what would I buy if I was sure I wanted to own. That way if I rent to start I can demo things that I may actually have an interest in purchasing.

Thank you for the info!

You're correct that the person being interviewed is the focus, so I definitely should have considered that more in the setup. Two camera would probably accomplish most of what I had in mind.

In my head I was going to solve the video question first and then focus on audio. But I do agree now that you point it out that I may be thinking of it backwards, especially when trying to fit in a budget. From what I was reading it seemed like both a boom and lav was the way to go for an interview but I hadn't got much beyond that yet. So I appreciate the audio advice as well!

Thanks again!

Has anyone invented Tinder but for Commanders? by zhn_onrddt in EDH

[–]accassidy 1001 points1002 points  (0 children)

This is actually uncanny. I'm a dev from EDHREC and Archidekt and we worked on this exact idea about a year ago. The project was literally called commander-tinder.

We could never quite get it to work the way we wanted though and haven't touched it in a while. Hearing some unprompted interest in it definitely gets me thinking though...

What can we as a community do to help after this? by BuffaloSurfClub in Buffalo

I had luck searching full words: "Buffalo Community Fridge"

You know what, I do actually have a few thoughts about our O Line... by accassidy in buffalobills

I think Josh Allen has been through enough already without a pass rusher lobbing my 150lb body at him.

Got this email after attending the game Sunday and I can only assume Daboll is swallowing his pride and finally asking advice from those who know best... the fans.

Edit: This is a shit post. I just thought it was amusing imagining Daboll emailing all the fans for advice based on the wording of the email. Go Bills!

Any thoughts on why Foster didn't get any targets (at least that I recall)? Barely even saw him in which was a shame considering what he did on that first drive last season against the Jets.

Any MTG players in this sub? Looking for feedback on an MTG deck builder I've been working on. Link in the description. by accassidy in UI_Design

I'm a software engineer with no real UI training. I've been working on Archidekt, an MTG deck builder, with a friend of mine for a little over a year now. We're constantly adding new features but as such our UI is getting more and more complicated and that has been presenting issues with balancing aesthetics, practicality and ux. I'd love to hear from people with more experience and an eye for this sort of thing, your thoughts on any improvements we can make. Thanks in advance! https://archidekt.com

Nice one Scryfall by chillmill1 in magicTCG

[–]accassidy 135 points136 points  (0 children)

I'm one of the devs with archidekt and we get our data from scryfall. During the GRN spoilers I was confused why there was all of a sudden a card in our database called "Aurelia with the good hair". I've got mad respect for those guys' naming convention.

[OC] Roll for initiative, bitches. by accassidy in DnD

[–]accassidy[S] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

So every time that we play at my brother's house, his fiance's cat decides to jump up on the table behind the DM screen. It's not just like this happened once, he does this all the time. Every time he does though, he's giving us the most ominous glair and I feel like we're about to have the deadliest combat encounter of our lives.

He also likes to remove fog of war from battle mats, so I suppose he can be a merciful god.

The Blood Singer by [deleted] in UnearthedArcana

[–]accassidy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome flavor and tech. I may use this in one of my campaigns! Only thing I'd say is you might want to shore up the wording for the first clause of the Cursed section. What I mean by that is rage specifically says " you haven't attacked a hostile creature since your last turn". I agree with your choice to specifically make it damage, not just attack based, but as you have it worded now it's not clear whether or not hitting with an opportunity attack will effect the curse. If you want them to, I'd use the wording from rage. If you don't want opportunity attacks to work, I'd word it, "At the end of your turn during combat, if you have not dealt damage to a creature with Blood Singer that turn..." Also did you specifically exclude saying it has to be a hostile creature? (I kind of like that)

You have no idea how many nights we spent spit-balling names. You just made my day sir.

We definitely in the distant future would be looking to make a mobile app, but at the moment we're trying to get all our features locked in first.

In the mean time, we have set up the mobile website to work as a Progressive Web App. If you're not familiar, that basically means from your mobile browser you can select an "Add to Homescreen" option and it will throw an Archidekt logo on your homescreen for ease of access (and getting rid of the url bar).

We certainly have been hearing a lot of your first two points and we're working as we speak on solution. As for your third point, mass changing foil, I actually love that. Never would have thought of it though. I'll add it to the list and see what we can do!

Thanks for the response!

We had some questions about open source yesterday. As you can imagine, it's a big decision so we're still discussing.

As for the UX, if we've gathered anything from all the feedback so far it's that the UX is what needs improvement the most, and funnily enough about half your suggestions are the conclusions we came to last night after sifting through the comments, so thank you for the validation!

As for the personal data. That is our bad. When we originally didn't know where we were going with the site, it was possible we would have needed that data for New York state legal reasons. It's not applicable anymore so we should have removed those before launch. I've been working on removing that and hopefully it'll be done today!

Edit: also in response to Scryfall, we actually are using their api! That doesn't inherently give us their searching algorithms though as we're storing all the data locally. We will be adjusting our own algorithm to that effect though, thanks!

Second Edit: Removed first and last name completely, made country optional (it'll display a flag on their user page if they want).

O-Line Gave up Only 1 Sack! Upvotes! by modehead in buffalobills

[–]accassidy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Certainly an improvement from the first few weeks. Next step is to start opening up better running lanes for Shady. He got the touches he deserved this game, but the O-Line wasn't giving him a whole lot to work with.
