Apparently its specific to takeoff and landing, shouldnt be an issue in flight though.

Ngl Ive eaten some of the best sushi in the world at various spots (Jiro Roppongi for example) and the sashimi that Costco started stocking recently is impressively good. I dont mean by grocery store standards either, just in general.

I was floored by its data analytics capacity recently. I can now ask Claude how our technical win rate has tracked quarter over quarter for the last 8 quarters, break it down by region, see if anyone on my team is performing better or worse than others (pulling from CRM data), and if it sees a pattern it'll review Gong transcripts to look for trends in talk track, paired AE, loss reasons, etc.

It's actually the most powerful thing I've found to show that we're not losing because of our SEs but something in the process that happens before them (qualification being a big one).

Jazz cups

Closest to me is Sportsmans Warehouse but I'm not sure how common those are. Other than that, no clue, sorry!

You should! Or any of the full frame mystery ranch packs, since the Screen 32 is discontinued now, but they use the same harness system. I can carry twice the weight and it still feels lighter compared to the other packs I've used.

Also note that this is specifically the 32 - the 33 is too tall by default

So far yes. The one part that can exceed in theory is the total height, which for the bag itself is within spec, but for people of our height it adjusts via a velcro panel and will exceed that.

You could get around that if you ever needed to by just shortening the back panel during checkin/boarding then re-extend it after the flight.

6’4” here, this is how I finally landed on the MR Scree 32. All other bags, the hip belt doesnt reach the hip

Yeah I guess the hard part is one setup with a big OTA and high frame rate video, and another setup with a wide FOV and HA visible. I guess I'd just lean this way because it's a cheaper starting point, and the mount can later take a heavier OTA and cheap planetary camera

I'm no expert but I'd be curious what other people think about this as a budget setup: - Askar 50p $300 - iExos-100 $300 - Used astro modded camera from ebay $200 - Various adapters, battery, etc $150

It lacks focal length but it should be usable for moon and nebula right?

This is what I use too, its far better than any of the modern styled ones.

I do think a lot of the SIDS prevention stuff should be viewed not as a strict ruleset and instead as a set of guidelines - you have to weigh the risks of every decision including how it affects your own mental health. As an example, the risk of the baby getting positional asphyxiation in a bouncer is probably lower than the risk of something happening if you fall asleep with your kid on you. Neither of the options are ideal, and I'm not saying you made a right or wrong choice or anything like that - just that the realities of being a parent are often at strict odds with the stuff they tell you to do to reduce SIDS, and we can't min/max our way into being safe parents.

Why not both? Mystery Ranch tri zip

Could be. Robin Wongs youtube review did show him having the same slow autofocus, but he didn't mention the slightly off focus issue I had. He does call it the slowest AF he's seen on an M43 though.

Yes... ish. It's actually heavier and a CHONKY boy, real thicc. But it's shorter, especially with the hood removed but even if you leave the hood on it's short enough to be able to slide into a jacket pocket. Not nearly as pocketable as a true pancake or even the 12-32, but its enough.

Funny enough, its actually so thick that on my GX7 when i set it down on a table with the hood + lens cap on, the lens cap touches the table too.

Totally a possibility! If you do get it you'll have to let us know how it works for you, I'd be curious.

I haven't tried it but from what I've seen online, I'd agree. If I wasn't looking for more of a walkabout/pocketable lens I think it'd be the obvious choice for a non-pro lens. The Lumix isn't exactly bad, it just falls in a weird area where it isn't the best at any one thing, just mediocre at all of it.

I only drink Kirkland Signature these days, everything else is overpriced

Without storytelling, we’d all be replaced by AI by now

Agreed - I've got a stop right by my house but its 90 minutes by transit or 10 minutes driving.

That said, I've found getting dropped off at the airport costs $10-$20 when using rideshare, but if you get dropped off at cascade station near the target you can take the max just the one stop and save the cash.

I don't know if this is the case universally, but my own pack and play has a bassinet attachment which results in the walls being fairly low relative to the mattress when its used. The risk in theory is in the baby rolling up and out of the bassinet entirely.

The odds of that happening in reality have got to be incredibly slim, but not zero.

Honestly not bad for a 46L bag

we use a RAG framework behind a LLM. The RAG pulls from past questionnaires and RFPs which we try to keep updated, then tell the LLM the structure and tone we're going for. The RAG has access to both Q&A format RFPs (usually .xlsx) as well as written style .doc options, and I'll tell it which to emulate. For the latter (i.e. when someone asks for a written proposal solution rather than a bunch of individual feature match requests) I'll write up my proposal casually to the LLM, and have it restructure my guide to fit the format of the previous responses.

IMHO even with all possible information given, it's not creative enough to propose a solution better than what I'd come up with, but its better than I am at formatting it in a way thats concise, detailed, and sales forward without sounding too overt.
