About five years ago, I took my kids to a petting zoo with baby animals. I was so struck by how cute baby goats were. I couldn't shake the feeling that I had made fundamentally wrong choices in my life because I didn't have more time with baby goats.
This is my current daydream to own goats (because that's probably the best way to get consistent access to baby goats). I was specifically looking at the breed of Nigerian dwarf goats. There would be cheesemaking, vegetation clearing, and current dreams also include an apiary.
Totally, I too am not in a pro vfx type person. But I have been slowly learning Da Vinci Resolve (which is really nice). I'm just a real fan of Serif, which as been producing solid apps for a reasonable price.
What strikes me with the performance is the potential to use the engine for a motion graphics app. Think somewhere in-between After Effects and Apple Motion. This might be wishful thinking, but I would love to see it and would purchase it in a second.
Except the NYT and Wapo have a much better history of correcting mistakes. Comparing Daily Mail and NY Post to other serious news organizations is really an apple to oranges comparison.
Throughout the pandemic I have re-read Anathem several times. The thought of a cloistered community in pursuit of knowledge (mathic society) ends up being my happy place.
The real missed opportunity for Google was expanding reader's social/collaboration features into a more robust social network.It would have saved them from trying to ham fist Google+ for everyone. It could have been a home for Wave and Buzz type of tech. Instead they threw out the baby, be damn the bathwater.
That being said, I have a found NewsBlur a great replacement.
I believe pain is relative and she is obviously under a lot of stress. I have decided that I am not in a position to judge what others are going through. I hope others would extend me the same courtesy.

Ahhhh.... goats.
