Were you the ghost writer for the Headhunters (2011) film ?


Is there a tool that records the timestamp of each executed command during a build, and when you rebuild, it tells you how much time is left instead of "building obj 35 out of 1023" ?

Or (for cmake or ninja) use a CSV that says how long each object takes to build and use it to estimate how much is left ?


OP Here. Thats an interesting idea. What The Fork knows all the commands run, and every path they read/write, so I should be able to make it estimate build time just by looking at what files were touched.


Is it possible to create a tixy QR code that contains a link to itself ?


That creeps me out, and probably everyone who realizes it. But, and it's not a tongue in cheek question, why not try to use it to your advantage ?


There are people who live for every ounce of attention, us introverted tech folk probably aren’t the majority of users.


Would I sound better on Zoom if I took out one wireless earbud and spoke into it ?


As long as you hold it out towards the camera when it's somebody else's turn to speak.


Yes. Then there's the fact that they do this on a daily basis to avoid accountability.


What 8K TVs are the best ?

Definitely go with Acme, they're our highest paying^W^W best performer in this segment.


"Assembly language of FFmpeg" leads me to think of -filter_complex. It's not for human consumption even once you know many of its gotchas (-ss and keyframes, PTS, labeling and using chain outputs, fading, mixing resolutions etc).

But then again no-one is adjusting timestamps manually in batch scripts, so a high-level script on top of filter_complex doesn't have much purpose.


I use filter-complex all the time, often in batch scripts


what do you mean by no purpose? you can adjust them programmatically in batch scripts.


For some reason, when ffmpeg reencodes from 23.97fps h264 to the same fps and codec, the result looks choppy, like the shutter speed was halved or something. The smart lossless encoding you mentioned helps a lot here.

He doesn't seem to state his position on whether proper sex work should be stigmatized or not, just that others think it should be.
