![]() The first of these was the ability of Brain&Brain to use writing that emphasized how childlike its story actually was. In fact, most of the game’s redeeming factors rely on its ability to make me want to shrink down to a child again just to enjoy the impeccable writing and amazing storytelling techniques. But what the game brings with this is a presentation and style that makes it feel more akin to a child’s night time book. Yes, you point and press a button to interact with things in the environment, occasionally solve puzzles, and progress using these two methods. I use that term loosely because, in reality, Burly Men at Sea falls into a genre of its own. That’s important, seeing as Burly Men at Sea only falls into one “real” gaming industry genre: point and click adventure. That seemingly small amount of input is used in cool ways throughout the game, and though it took a minute to get used to some of the control designs, there wasn’t a moment during the game where I felt bored with the way I controlled what was happening. Nevertheless, Burly Men at Sea has a way of letting the player interact with it that is both interesting and unique.Ĭontrolling the three sailors means using your controller’s triggers, an on-screen cursor that acts like a computer mouse, and one face button. These beginning moments were (like most of the game) slow and methodical and consisted of learning brief snippets of information before being whisked away into some other situation. After finding an island inhabited by a coffee shoppe owner, the map sends the three on a grand adventure. It all starts when characters Hasty Beard, Steady Beard, and Brave Beard find a crudely drawn map with barely anything on it. The experiences in my little adventure stemmed from three sailors and a world popping with color and imagination. That philosophy of good storytelling in games is bent, challenged, and sometimes ignored in developer Brain&Brain’s newest title, Burly Men at Sea. It has to mirror gameplay and art so perfectly that the entirety of the project feels like the same package instead of tiny parcels of separate mail. The story has to flow with the game at hand. Good writing in a general sense led the way, but today, I noticed that telling a good story in video games is much more than just good writing. The ability to maintain a well written and artistically independent story meant smaller studios could do much more with story than their triple A big brothers. At first, big budget, commercial games were the only ones to offer complex characters and well thought out plots, but through as time passed, indie games acquired the taste as well. From those beginnings to today, stories in games have evolved to mean many different things. Gameplay mechanics, audio, and visuals were always staples of the gaming world, but this fairly new pillar of design meant big things for the industry. You can see a map of the points in between on our website.At some point in the history of video games, story became one of the main features within the medium. We lived in a tiny house community, an old mining town in the Rockies, and more. ![]() The two of us spent eighteen months traveling North America as nomads, starting out as farmhands in Oregon and ending at the old mill in the Ozarks we now call home. ![]() There’s even a mystery, of sorts, waiting at the end of each playthrough, for those curious enough to find it.Īs a game that celebrates adventure, it’s fitting that most of Burly Men at Sea’s development and its original release took place during a weird journey of our own. With its short branching story and discoverable choices, the game is designed to be played multiple times for entirely different voyages (though we do encourage breaks). You’ll play the role of storyteller, shaping the narrative around our ungainly heroes. I’m the creative half of indie duo Brain&Brain: drawer of beards and writer of salty exclamations in folktale adventure Burly Men at Sea, coming to both PS4 and PS Vita on 19th September.īurly Men at Sea tells a branching story of the unlikely adventures of the Brothers Beard as they muddle their way through encounters with creatures from Scandinavian folklore.

Finalmente, el diseño de Zelen, que se ha utilizado para algunos ECA, aleatoriza a los sujetos antes de que brinden el consentimiento informado, lo que puede ser ético para los ECA de detección y terapias seleccionadas, pero probablemente no sea ético "para la mayoría de los ensayos terapéuticos". Por otro lado, el "equilibrio colectivo" puede entrar en conflicto con la falta de equilibrio personal (por ejemplo, la creencia personal de que una intervención es eficaz). Por un lado, se ha argumentado que el equilibrio en sí mismo es insuficiente para justificar los ECA. sobre el tratamiento preferido") común a los ensayos clínicos se ha aplicado a los ECA, la ética de los ECA tiene consideraciones especiales. La aleatorización es el proceso de asignar sujetos de prueba a grupos de tratamiento o de control utilizando un elemento de azar para determinar las asignaciones con el fin de reducir el sesgo.Īunque el principio de equilibrio clínico ("incertidumbre genuina dentro de la comunidad médica experta. Para mejorar la presentación de informes de ECA en la literatura médica, un grupo internacional de científicos y editores publicó Declaraciones Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) en 1996, 2001 y 2010, que han sido ampliamente aceptadas. En 2004, más de 150 000 ECA se encontraban en la Biblioteca Cochrane. Ī finales del siglo XX, los ECA fueron reconocidos como el método estándar para la "terapéutica racional" en la medicina. Įl diseño de los ensayos también se vio influenciado por los ensayos de ISIS a gran escala sobre tratamientos para ataques cardíacos que se realizaron en la década de 1980. Uno de los autores de ese artículo fue Austin Bradford Hill, a quien se le atribuye haber concebido el ECA moderno. Įl primer ECA publicado en medicina apareció en el artículo de 1948 titulado " Tratamiento con estreptomicina de la tuberculosis pulmonar ", que describía una investigación del Medical Research Council. La investigación experimental de Fisher y sus escritos popularizaron los experimentos aleatorios. Más tarde, a principios del siglo XX, aparecieron experimentos aleatorios en la agricultura, gracias a Jerzy Neyman y Ronald A. Los experimentos aleatorios aparecieron en psicología, donde fueron introducidos por Charles Sanders Peirce y Joseph Jastrow en la década de 1880, y en educación. Įl primer ensayo clínico informado fue realizado por James Lind en 1747 para identificar el tratamiento del escorbuto. El término ensayo clínico controlado aleatorio es un término alternativo utilizado en la investigación clínica sin embargo, los ECA también se emplean en otras áreas de investigación, incluidas muchas de las ciencias sociales. No todos los ensayos clínicos aleatorios son ensayos controlados aleatorios (y algunos de ellos nunca podrían serlo, como en los casos en que los controles no serían prácticos o no serían éticos de instituir). De manera similar, el inicialismo a veces se expande como " ensayo clínico aleatorio " o " ensayo comparativo aleatorio ", lo que genera ambigüedad en la literatura científica. Los términos "ECA" y " ensayo aleatorizado " a veces se usan como sinónimos, pero el último término omite la mención de los controles y, por lo tanto, puede describir estudios que comparan múltiples grupos de tratamiento entre sí en ausencia de un grupo de control. Un ensayo controlado aleatorio puede proporcionar pruebas convincentes de que el tratamiento del estudio tiene un efecto sobre la salud humana. Los ECA cegados se utilizan comúnmente para probar la eficacia de las intervenciones médicas y, además, pueden proporcionar información sobre los efectos adversos, como las reacciones a los medicamentos.

Onyeka Okongwu out of USC is another big man who recently has shot up draft boards, and offers a stronger defensive skillset right away, which the Warriors might desire more given their expectation of competing for a championship next year. With such a lengthy offseason due to not being invited to the NBA bubble in Orlando, Golden State’s front office has had ample time to focus on scouting and researching players, and reportedly have met with and looked into several prospects projected to go later in the lottery or even further back. The Warriors have been linked to numerous trade scenarios, and missing out on Wiseman could push general manager Bob Myers to strongly consider offers from teams lower in the lottery. RELATED: Would trade for Nets' Dinwiddie make sense as Warriors reload? Minnesota is set at the center position with All-NBA big man Karl-Anthony Towns, and likely will be looking at other positions in the lottery. That alone is reason to have Charlotte as a probable landing spot.Charlotte could be looking to rebuild their team around Wiseman and the flurry of young former high draft picks on the Hornets’ roster. There is a not unlikely chance that Charlotte lands Ball without needing to even trade up. His pass-first mindset would be a perfect fit for what Borrego is trying to accomplish. ![]() Ball could come in and be a playmaker in the offense without needing to score.Ĭharlotte head coach James Borrego also recently discussed Ball’s fit within the Hornets’ offense. Both Rozier and Graham were high-volume scorers last season. In many ways, having guards ahead of Ball could help lighten some of the burden on Ball, particularly as a scorer. Add in Ball, who spent time last season playing alongside point guard Aaron Brooks and all three have shown the versatility to play on and off the ball. Rozier, meanwhile, did spend the near entirety of his time last season as a point guard but had experience in Boston playing as a two-guard. Rozier’s arrival changed Graham’s role, yet he still flourished. Last season, Graham spent 61% of his minutes as a shooting guard after spending 60% of his minutes at point guard the year prior. However, all three of the players are versatile enough to play on and off the ball. Under the assumption the Hornets don’t move one of Graham or Rozier to land Ball, the backcourt is crowded. If it all adds up to Ball landing in Charlotte, it would be a huge boost for a franchise that has been stuck in mediocrity and irrelevancy for the better part of the last decade. Minnesota could view one of them as a better fit next to D’Angelo Russell than Ball while Golden State could view them as the type of win-now players they desire. The latter has established himself as a rotational guard in the league while the former was a Most Improved Player contender this season. There also is the possibility the team could move up to secure Ball while using one of Graham or Rozier as trade bait. In that situation, the Hornets could be in prime position for Ball without having to give up assets. The Timberwolves could draft Anthony Edwards and the Warriors could either not find a trade partner and draft someone that isn’t Ball or find a trade partner that moves up for James Wiseman or another non-Ball prospect. Unlike basically every other team profiled, there’s a realistic scenario in which the Hornets can land Ball without needing to trade up. Though the team doesn’t have a need for a guard with both Devonte Graham and Terry Rozier on the roster, they do have a need for a player that will bring notoriety to the franchise, which Ball would do. One of the luckiest teams in the draft lottery was the Charlotte Hornets, who jumped five spots into the top three and into the conversation for LaMelo Ball. What’s the outlook of the team, how does Ball fit into their roster and plans and what’s the likelihood of him landing with the franchise? We continue our profiles with the Charlotte Hornets. With the date for the 2020 NBA Draft set, we begin our look at each team in the lottery relative to LaMelo Ball. ![]() ![]() Overall, the Chefman Food & Deli Slicer is easily the best slicer available at this price. The problem is how many little nooks and crannies there are, so expect to spend extra time on cleanup with this slicer. Though the food carriage is equipped with a quick-release for easy cleaning, the Chefman could be easier to clean. Whereas most meat slicers will take up twice that much space on your countertop, the Chefman can be left out indefinitely without crowding your kitchen. ![]() The compact 9” x 12” footprint for the Chefman definitely puts it in a class of its own. It’ll get the job done, for sure, but don’t expect picture-perfect edges on your sliced meat and cheese. That’s more than enough power to make smooth slices - a feature that’s only hindered by the roughly serrated blade. It’s the only meat slicer under $100 that I can wholeheartedly recommend.įirst of all, the Chefman is incredibly affordable given its powerful 180 Watt motor. But what if you’re looking for a small, simple machine to make your slicing life easier? Turn towards the Chefman Deli & Food Slicer. Wrap all of those great features up in a 1-year warranty that covers parts and labor, and you have what I consider the best overall meat slicer for at-home use.īuying any home meat slicer is going to eat into your kitchen budget. And when you take them all off for a thorough cleaning, the unidirectional serrated blade is fully exposed for easy cleaning, too. The blade, food carriage, food pusher, and “thickness control” plate are all removable. The entire machine is easy to disassemble and clean, too. This ensures that meat falls effortlessly away from the 7-inch stainless steel blade while you’re slicing. While most home-use meat slicers have an upright design, the Chef’sChoice goes for the more professional-grade tilted carriage. And because the motor has exceptionally high torque, it has excellent cutting power. But it’s small for a very good reason: It helps keep the size of this machine smaller and better for kitchen countertops. On paper, the Chef’sChoice’s 120 Watt motor may not look that impressive. The combination of value and performance makes it one of the best meat slicers for home use, bar none. Even though it’s offered at the price of a home-use model, the Chef’sChoice Electric Meat Slicer has a design that’s closer to commercial grade. ![]() Though I didn’t go quite that far, I did end up something that is quite flexible: What I effectively wanted was a Dockerfile I could use to build a disk image out of a base OS and a set of programs. While I could just boot the native version of Basilisk II and manually copy things over, if I made any mistakes, or wanted to repeat the process with a different base OS, I would have to repeat everything, which would be tedious and error-prone. I wanted to have a sustainable and repeatable way of building a disk image with lots of Mac software installed. Building Disk Images, or Docker 1995-style There is also basic prefetching support, so that sequential reads are less likely to be blocked on the network.Īlong with some old fashioned web optimizations, this makes the emulator show the Mac’s boot screen in a second, and be fully booted in 3 seconds, even with a cold HTTP cache. Using content addressing makes the large number of identical chunks from the empty portion of the disk map to the same URL. Manually chunking (as opposed to HTTP range requests) allows each chunk to be Brotli-compressed (ranges technically support compression too, but it’s lacking in the real world). Filesystem requests from Emscripten are intercepted, and when they involve a chunk that has not been loaded yet, they are sent off to a service worker who will load the chunk over the network. After some false starts, I settled on an approach where the disk image is broken up into fixed-size content-addressed 256K chunks. However, it seemed like this goal was fundamentally incompatible with the other goal of putting as much software as possible onto it - the more software there was, the bigger the required disk image.Īt this point I switched my approach to downloading pieces of the disk image on demand, instead of all upfront. ![]() There was some low-hanging fruit, like actually compressing it (ideally with Brotli), and dropping some unused data from it. Streaming Storage and Startup TimeThe first thing that I looked into was reducing the time spent downloading the disk image that the emulator uses. I wondered what it would take to extend the Basilisk II support to have a macintosh.js-like experience in the browser, and ideally go beyond it. However, it’s an Electron app, and it feels wrong to download a ~250MB binary and dedicate 1 CPU core to running something that was meant to be in a browser. macintosh.js comes closest to that - it packages James’s Basilisk II port with a large (~600MB) disk image and provides a way of sharing files with the host. They’re great for quickly launching a single program and playing around with it, but they don’t have any persistence, way of getting data in or out of it, or running multiple programs at once. However, none of these setups replicated the true feel of using a computer in the 90s. The Macintosh Repository is experimenting with in-browser emulation via either Basilisk II or vMac.RetroWeb Vintage Computer Musem, also based on James’s PCE.js work.OldWeb.Today, which extends James’s Basilisk II work to support a working networking stack.The Internet Archive’s Mac Emulation, which is partly based on James’s PCE.js work.James Friend’s in-browser ports of the Basilisk II and PCE.js emulators.Some research into browser-based alternatives uncovered a few options: As far as I could tell, that was still the state of the art, at least if you were targeting late era 68K Mac emulation. I had earlier experimented with Basilisk II, which worked well enough, but it was rather annoying to set up, as far as gathering a ROM, a boot image, messing with configuration files, etc. My heritage being of the classic Mac line, I was curious what the easiest to use emulation option was in the modern era. Projects like v86 make it easy to run your chosen old operating system in the browser. Between increasing CPU power, WebAssembly, and retrocomputing being so popular The New York Times is covering it, it’s never been easier to relive your 80s/90s/2000s nostalgia. ![]() Color analysis demonstrates how certain shades are capable of being flattering or, conversely, unflattering by observing the optical illusions that occur on the face when placing specific colors next to the individual. “Color analysis, also known as personal color analysis (PCA), seasonal color analysis, or skin-tone matching, is a term often used within the cosmetics and fashion industry to describe a method of determining the colors of clothing and makeup that harmonize with a person's skin complexion, eye color, and hair color with the benefit of being able to use this tool for wardrobe planning and style consulting. The other 11 are available on our Etsy store. This is the SEPTEMBER, SOFT AUTUMN palette. Using our own unique interpretation of the 12-colour system, we have 12 extended colour palettes available, each with 60 shades including metals, neutrals and cosmetic colours. I will provide the code for the first method and the second method is left for the readers to explore.Welcome to your new personal aesthetic! This palette is for those who already know their personal colours and want to go even more in depth. The second and the shorter route is to use the rgb2hsl() function form the plotwidgets package of R. The first method is to use the formulas defined in the previous section. There are 2 ways we can convert RGB to HSL. Now we have all the definitions we need to know about colors, let's put all this knowledge to build our code. It is also measured between the scales of (0,1). The chroma (C) on the other hand is the purest form of color without any blendings of either white, black, or gray colors. Luminance (L) on the other hand defines the intensity, luminosity, or brightness of the color on a scale of (0,1) where 1 represents the bright region and 0 the dark region or the pure color. This means the max/min value is calculated comparing the values of R, G, and B. To calculate the value of saturation, the maximum and minimum values of RGB are required. The 0 value represents the absence of color and 1 represents the color at its full brightness. The saturation (S) of color tends to tell its brightness. The possible outcomes are and the formulas associated with them for conversion to HSL: a) R>G>B then H = 60 ° * b) R>B>G then H = 60 ° * c) G>B>R then H = 60 ° * d) G>R>B then H = 60 ° * e) B>R>G then H = 60 ° * f) B>G>R then H = 60 ° * ![]() There are 3 variables R, G, and B so there are 6 possible ways to arrange RGB without repeating any color twice or thrice. Let us now look at the math behind converting the RGB values to the HSL color system. The angle varies between (0 °,360 °), and in terms of color, it starts with red and shifts to yellow to green to cyan to blue to magenta and back to red. Hue (H) represents the angle of the color with the dominant energy in the visible light spectrum. HSL stands for Hue, Saturation, and Luminance. ![]() If the RGB color format is converted to the cylindrical coordinate system then the HSL system originates. In RGB format the gray color is (0.5,0.5,0.5). Tones on the other hand are generated by blending the color with gray. The tint of color is generated in a similar way as the shades but by blending the color with white. Shades of color can be generated by blending them with black color. The RGB color combinations can be further tuned as: So, for the red, green, and blue colors the RGB values in the (0,1) scale will be: Red color |(255,0,0) is equivalent to (1,0,0) Green color|(0,255,0) is equivalent to (0,1,0) Blue color |(0,0,255) is equivalent to (0,0,1) The conversion is simply dividing the RGB values by 255. Sometimes, the intensity values are defined in the range of (0,1). So, for a red color RGB value is (255,0,0), for green color it is (0,255,0) and for blue color it is (0,0,255). The RGB values are specified as (red, green, blue) and the intensity of each color varies between (0,255). ![]() Duplicate Photo Finder is designed for the average computer user.
