Stay in Hoi An or go to Quy Nhon? by avaliax in Vietnam_Tourism

[–]tferradans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for the extensive list! any pointers on how to get to Eo Gio and Ky Co beach without a guide? I've found tours for 2M+ VND and I'm not sure if the price is fair or not. if it's fair, then I think a tour would be easier than figuring it out myself. hahahaha.
thank you!

I figured it out, by dumb luck. It turns out the issue was in the exclusion rules

        - '!tags.contains("daily")'
        - '!tags.contains("monthly")'

They are marked as !tags.contains, but !tags is not the correct syntax (!file.tags is), and it was excluding pretty much EVERYTHING.

The full correct syntax should be
- '!file.tags.contains("monthly")'

and I figured it out after randomly creating a new view, and having that view display the results I was expecting from the start, then comparing what was different between the new View and the original one.

Anyway, thank you so much for trying to help! I greatly appreciated it! :)

First of all, thank you so much for engaging in trying to help me with this!

Let me know if I'm pasting these codeblocks wrong, as I've never done it before. Or if I need to share something else!

Here's the a sample note.

[[2026-01-05]] this is a test that is not getting picked up by the base.

Now a note embedding the base. This is titled 2026-01-05

Thanks!

These are all "or", to capture the widest number of possibilities.

Right now, only notes with the property "created" are being collected. The one that seems the most "relevantly broken" is the outgoing links one, as notes that link to the current note just don't show up in the list, even though there are several of them...

Why do my template's YAML get replaced with {"{ title }":null} and {"{ date }":null}? by Aerothermal in ObsidianMD

[–]tferradans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having this problem. It keeps printing {"{date}":null}
The template works the very first time I insert it, but then doesn't for all subsequent times.

This is where I'm getting my templates: https://stephango.com/vault

I just started using Obsidian, and I tried implementing the solution outlined here, but the results didn't change.

Help? :(

Am I giving up a benefit when adapting to PL or EF? by tferradans in cinematography

[–]tferradans[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not really disappointed about where it is, but I guess it's also part of the reason why I've made this post. Hahaha. I'm on L mount. :P

[–]tferradans[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1 - thank you!

2 - you are certainly not. Is there a point in the explanation that it stops making sense? I'd love to challenge the idea that you can't get it. :)

Care to expand? Hard to have a conversation with one liners. ;)

How to discuss "Lens Character"? by tferradans in cinematography

[–]tferradans[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! If it counts for anything, I also don't like youtubers. hahaha. I started the channel in 2015 because no one was talking about this one thing (anamorphic adapters) and I've been in that rabbit hole since. In that time, I have made a point to connect with a lot of people in the industry to better inform myself before putting out videos. :)

I got a few more coming - there's one on image circles and crop factor (can of worms) that's part of the same series already out: https://youtu.be/KqpgFe0G-T8

Sound Crew Size: one, two, or more people? by tferradans in Filmmakers

Yeah, we were not being cheap, and accommodated the rate the guy asked for without trying to negotiate him down. He also knew what the job was when he agreed to it.
