Greatsite, I am impressed. I have been skiing since I was in 6th grade. As you know, I too am always looking for an excuse to get out there and make some turns. Hopefully we can get a chance to ski together. If you find yourself out here in Europe, please look me up and we will hit the Alps!
Jonathan,
You mentioned you would like the ski the 2015 Katana 191. I have both the 184 and the 191 mounted with Kingpins, I ski these with Freedom SLs. Will you be in the Aspen Snowmass area this season? Earlier I posted I had a question regarding lightweight performance mountaineering skis. Well, the Kingpin mounted on light twitchy skis (Movement Shift 1400+grams) changes the personality of the ski, it is much more powerful and not nervous at speed. The kingpin tours well, I can change heal risers mid stride and switch to ski mode, and rip the skins without removing the skis. Faster transition then my FT-12s. The interface with the ski is so strong I can use lighter touring boots and achieve improved performance at a net loss in weight.

Great site Jonathan. Did my first season in France last year and all the advice on here was greatly appreciated. Became a member on the back of that just now. Would love to see some reviews of Black Crows if you manage to get hold of any.
The reviews on the site are great. I am considering becoming a member, but I live in the bay area in California and primarily ski Squaw where the conditions are a little different than CO and ID. Do you have any reviewers who live in the area and can make recommendations on skis/snowboards for Tahoe snow?
I am emailing you because, I think after reading a bunch of the sites reviews and skiing on a bunch of skis, I think I know a ski you would like. A reoccurring trend in your reviews of big mountain skis are that you generally enjoy a longer ski 185cm+, damper, directional charger, that has girth.
The ski was nimble but wanted to go fast and really open up in above tree-line terrain. Based off of reading your reviews I think you should review the ski. It has girth, charges, and has a nimble feel. Feel free to email me if you would like to see some pictures of the profile of the ski.
Thank you for this excellent site. I have made many excellent buys based on your recommendations. It has enabled me to to orientate myself in a endless sea of products, and find out what works for me in different snow conditions both inbounds and out.
However, Rossi has really made it tough to follow their B.O. line up. From a super secret ski that just ripped (both 118 and 98) to a messy arrangement of skis to completely ending the line up. Surely it has to go on somehow.
The Roast Curve Editor could work to take a roast, make a slight adjustment to the curve, and run it back as a recipe, or allow automation to keep your roast as close to your edited reference curve as possible, or, use the edited curve as an overlay.
It would also be amazing to be able to save overlays in their own menu section So that when I have a reference roast, I can easily find it without searching through all my roasts, and needing to rename specific roasts in order to find them.
The roasting profile (curve) is not something we directly control. It is the indirect result of the 4 (+environment) inputs; preheating temp, drum speed, fan speed, induction heating, so editing it would only serve as a way to visually see it.
Right now this is not in the pipeline, however we have some other tools being worked on which will help you design your recipes by the help of machine learning. We are also working on better prediction, which is being beta tested right now.
As for saving the overlays, I think you should give #tags a try. These make it much quicker to find profiles which you tag in the notes. The most used tags show up on your main list of roasts, and others can be filtered.
I have been getting the same. I am using 2020.2 though.There was a change in how Unity does messages to let you know what it is doing other than just saying hold on, my guess is that it is related to that change.
This causes some problems that I have run into to. If I am writing software in visual studio 2019, save and then switch back to unity. Sometimes the unity editor will compile the code other times I will have to minimize/ maximize unity to get the unity editor to recognize code changes have taken place. (I have set the correct setting in visual studio and unity for auto refresh but does not seem to change anything)
Its a quirky issue more of an annoyance than anything. My guess is that I am floating around some edge case from using four monitors, I have four monitor layout setup for Unity and I switch between Visual studio 2019 and unity through the task bar. I put all of that info in the bug report along with a screenshot.
Yeah there is absolutely something to investigate. What would help the most is if you can submit a bug report and share your project that repro these slow down issues or if you can pinpoint where the slow downs are using the Profiler and saving the traces (.profile files).
I will create a better project if I am able to better reproduce the issue. Its almost as if the Unity editor when losses focus (click on another application or minimize) and I try to click back onto Unity it does not want to refocus or does focus but into to some weird state, hence the unity editor does not see the script code changes or when you click on the assets in the hierarchy the gui.repaint message appears.
How much more satisfied would you be with your photos if you could get gorgeous analog tones again and again? How amazing would it be to hear clients, followers & fellow photographers praising the colors and tones of your photos?
The NATE Cam E-Chrome Collection includes 10 breathtaking new film presets, based on classic films. While each of these has their root in a classic film, they go beyond this to bring out various aspects of each style. My goal is for each preset to be usable and aesthetically pleasing, while still retaining the look of the underlying film that inspired it.
You can take your photos even further with the included NATE Cam Film Toolkit presets for Lightroom, which makes it easy to add complex film effects. I carefully planned the settings in the Film Toolkit to compliment the existing presets. The combination of these two is really amazing.
Q. Will this work with my camera model?
A. If you are able to use Lightroom with your camera model, than these presets will work with your camera. You will get the most consistent results, however, if your camera is on the Custom Camera Profile List. If your camera is not on this list, the presets will use your default camera profile.
Q. Can I use these for video editing?
Yes, if you purchase the Video Preset pack, you will receive 3D LUT files which will work in Adobe Premiere and Final Cut Pro. If you are using a different video editor, please check first to make sure it accepts 3D LUT files.
Q. How do I install this?
A. For Mac, there is an included installer program, which makes installation a snap. For Windows users, there are instructions included on how to add these presets to Lightroom.
One of the major improvements in the E-Chrome series is the custom camera profiles. While you can still use these presets on JPEGs or with Camera Models which do not have a custom profile, you will get the best results if you shoot RAW and if your camera model is on the list below.
a few days ago I just bought your LR E-Chrome and K- Chrome Preset Pack. I am really exited to found your website and purchase this lovely handcrafted peace of light, tone and color they made to my photos. With the new version of LR Classic CC there is a new process version into LR. Did you upgrade your presets to this new version?
He's been a mainstay of Sunday mornings on Weekend Edition since 1987. In all that time he's rarely ever missed a puzzle. That sort of commitment is hard to find these days when instant gratification is king. But I've found that commitment is what Shortz is all about. If he says he's going to do something, he does it.
Our first stop was the Westchester Table Tennis Center, which Shortz has co-owned and operated since 2009. Table tennis is Shortz's outlet in the much the same way that his puzzles allow many people to unwind. But Shortz approaches his hobbies with the same tenacity that he approaches his day job.
At the front of the Westchester club, there are big display cases filled with table tennis memorabilia, including a black-and-white picture of Shortz in high school playing the sport and some of the trophies he earned in tournaments as a kid.
"I love the exercise," he said. "I love that I'm pretty good at it. I love the geometry of the game, the speed of it. You can never master the game. No matter how good you get, you can always get better. I'm now 71. I'm still learning."
After giving me a tour of the club and coaching me through a few rounds of the game, we sat down to talk about Shortz's day job. I asked him how it feels to be the Puzzlemaster for nearly four decades.
"My dad was not a very playful person, but I remember once when we were on a trip out West and we were driving, and we came to the top of a hill in the Rocky Mountains. And you could see the top of a hill miles and miles away. And he stopped the car and challenged everyone in the family to guess how many miles it was to the top of the other hill. My guess was way off. But I'm the sort of person who can turn anything into a game."
"In the eighth grade, when asked to write a paper on what I wanted to do with my life, I said 'a professional puzzle maker.' Can you imagine a kid deciding that is his life's desire? So that's what I wanted to do. And I was willing to live in an attic somewhere and churn out my little puzzles for $10 each and try to scrape out a living. So that's why I have the world's only college degree in puzzles."
