What Is Object Oriented Programming? | OOP Explained - Duration: 1:54.
Object Oriented Programming is commonly used programming paradigm.
Let's take a closer look at it.
Early programs were expressed step by step as a list of instructions.
While this approach, called structural or procedural, was good enough to write a simple
applications, with growing complexity and size of the source
code, there was need for something more convenient.
And that's where Object Oriented Programming, or simply OOP, steps in.
OOP solves a problem by creating objects that interact with each other.
An object can be anything, a dog, a game player, or a some UI element such as button.
It describes what a thing is and what it can do.
This is done by writing a class, which is like a template or a blueprint, where you
define it's attributes and methods.
To bring the object to life, you create it's instance, set the attributes and tell it what
to do.
What's great about OOP is that you can create as many instances as you want without the
need to implement functions for each of them.
Object Oriented Programming allows to write code with none or minimal code duplication.
This helps keep programs organized and working with them easier.
And that's it.

What do I do when my friends and family don't support me? - Duration: 3:39.
Sometimes what can happen when you're building your dreams, there's going to be people in your lives that don't support you.
Maybe it's your husband, your wife, your family, your friends...
Today we're going to be talking about specific tools and strategies on how to keep moving forward when the people around you
maybe aren't as supportive as you would like them to be.
Hi, I'm Stacey Berger with Mastering your Mindset. Often times
what can happen is when you set a goal and a vision and you're very excited about that,
you want to tell your friends and your family and you really are expecting them to buy into that. To get as equally as
excited. So what happens when they're not as excited? And maybe even start to plant those seeds of fear,
doubt and worry in your mind, which can then derail you and maybe set you back.
So how do you handle that feedback from other people as you're building your dreams?
There was a time in my life where I was offered a pretty significant opportunity, and I was really excited about it,
but there was also a part of me that was hesitant,
and I wasn't quite sure if I would be able to do that job.
So I went to somebody that I cared deeply about, and trusted and talked to them about it and
right away they said, "I don't think you should do it. I think it's too big of an opportunity. What if you fail?
What if it doesn't work out?" and that
really planted a seed of doubt into my mind.
Luckily I had tools, I had other structures of support that I went to, and eventually said yes to that opportunity.
So why do people we care about, why can't they always support us in our dreams and our visions?
What happens is our friends and our family, they have their own paradigms.
They have their own beliefs and when they see us growing, when they see those opportunities,
sometimes their natural instinct is to protect us because they love us and they care about us,
and they're also wondering what that impact is going to be on them.
So don't be surprised if the people who you care about deeply and the most
can't always hold that same vision for you and for your life.
So how to handle that? First of all there's a difference between keeping your vision and knowing that it is sacred
versus secret. I always say until you're really
confident with your vision, with your goal, to be very careful who you're sharing that with.
That sometimes that raised eyebrow from the wrong person it can kill a dream.
And so if we're not careful about who we're sharing it with,
oftentimes we don't move forward. And
so, knowing that the people around you that care about you, they love you, and they're doing the best that they can -
but to make sure that you're surrounding yourself with other people, other mentors, other people that have
accomplished the things that you want to accomplish so they can be those verbal supporters.
Knowing that as you're holding that vision strong, as you're moving towards, that oftentimes the people around you will eventually
buy into that vision and support you, but it often happens on their timeline not our timeline.
So just keep moving forward, have other verbal supporters around you knowing that it's really what lights you up,
that's the most important thing. If you're ready to step into a life that you love and accomplish those goals
and want to learn about the structures of support that can be in place for you,
go ahead and sign up for the complimentary strategy session in the link below
and we'll have a conversation about what that could look like for you.
What are some ways that you keep
motivated when maybe you've got those doubters and
rhose people who are trying to squash your dreams in your life? Comment below,
I would love to hear from you, and if you want to stay connected and receive more tools on Mastering your Mindset,

Gueve, Financial Analyst Part 1 - What I do and how much I make - Duration: 7:43.
My name is Gueve Ataie.
My job title is a financial analyst
at a private equity firm.
The salary range for someone in my job is typically between
90 and 150 thousand base and bonus, all-in.
My firm specifically, it's a private equity firm
so they do traditional buyout private equity,
which is the business of buying
public or private corporations
by issuing large amounts of debt.
What I specifically do is I work in the real estate group,
which is what my private equity firm is best known for.
We invest in distressed debt, non-performing loans,
hard-asset real estate, and we also have
a lending platform where we give out performing loans
to performing hard-asset real estate owners
who are trying to do things like develop, renovate,
whatever it may be, to their existing properties.
I build and manage all of our portfolio models
so when we make an acquisition,
depending on how busy we are, I may or may not help
with our acquisition and underwriting team,
but my main focus is the dispositions of assets
and the management of our entire portfolios
once we've acquired them.
Our models are pretty in-depth.
It's within Excel.
It can be anywhere between 10 and 50 tabs,
hopefully lower than 50 because it makes them
pretty convoluted if they get that big.
But, once we've underwritten some portfolio properties,
they've already built-in a certain set of assumptions
for the acquisition.
We have to build in assumptions on my side for disposition,
so we'll build in things like expenses for selling,
broker fees, legal costs, things of that nature.
We'll also build in interest rate expenses,
financing expenses, asset management fees, performance fees.
We have our own internal line of credit
that we have to pay interest on.
We model our distributions to our limited partners,
and we are the general partners,
so to the people within our company
that are getting paid by our distributions as well.
That's sort of where my area of expertise lies.
There are very many times where I have to learn new things
within Excel, within real estate, within finance,
whatever it may be, and the harder it is
the more I enjoy it.
I don't like the more administrative, repetitive things
that come with any job.
But, the stuff that really makes me happy to go to work
is knowing that I'm gonna get pissed off a lot
because I'm gonna be challenged a lot about something.
You get frustrated, and you get mad,
and I'll yell profanities every now and again
at my computer screen,
but that is what I actually enjoy doing
because at the end of the day when you complete
whatever it is that you're trying to do
after struggling through it
and having to learn a lot through it,
that's when I think you learn the most, number one.
And when you really kind of put yourself at your peak
in terms of your performance.
When I first was applying to jobs and I had an internship
in New York between my junior and senior in college,
I worked at a trading firm and it was by far
the most terrifying experience of my life.
I was completely horrified by my boss,
but he was a great guy.
I don't have nothing against him, he helped me quite a bit.
But, it was just an overwhelming experience
and I was thinking, oh, this is finance in New York,
it's super intense.
I was like, I'm not prepared for this.
What I learned after moving to New York
and working full-time in finance
was that really what I think are the best traits to have
is number one, you have to be likable.
I mean, I know people always think,
oh, you have to be a genius to be in finance, math.
I mean, people outside of finance.
I could tell you from first-hand experience
you do not need to be a genius to work in finance.
What I've noticed is that people like to hire people
that they like being with.
I mean, it doesn't matter if you're
the smartest person on the planet.
If you're not an enjoyable person to be around,
people don't wanna hire you.
Past that, you need to be
very detail-oriented and organized.
That's something that I've had to work with
because generally I've been good at
just keeping things in my head
and always being able to remember it,
but when you have a lot of things on your plate,
you need to actually properly organize yourself
and schedule yourself so that you don't forget anything
or that you don't miss something that
even if it's not super important,
it can make an effect on someone.
It can give an impression that you are lazy,
or not lazy, or you're super on top of the ball.
That's something that you need to be wary of.
Then, like I said, detail-oriented is hugely important,
that's something that I've also had to work on
because my boss, she's so incredibly detail-oriented
it's not even funny.
It's very impressive.
If you have an email that you're sending to someone
that's of high importance, that needs to be properly worded,
grammar needs to be great, but whatever you're sending them
needs to be very well done as well.
Whether it's a simple Excel sheet, or a Word document,
a very extensive Excel sheet, you may think that
you've gone over it once and then that's good,
but if they go through it and they find a mistake,
they may not trust any of the work that you send them
for quite a bit of time onwards.
I learned that the hard way when I was a little bit younger.
That's something that I've tried to be
very, very focused on, and my boss is extremely encouraging
and helpful, and she gives me a break
when I make these mistakes, but those are things
that people really, really care about.
If they find even the smallest mistake,
it deters their trust of you,
and that's something that is hugely important.
That's not something that I thought about
when I was an intern, or even when I was early on in my job.
Being hardworking, no one wants
to have someone who's lazy, obviously.
And that goes without saying.
That shouldn't even really be something that I bring up.
You need to be hardworking if you want to do well
in any job, regardless of the industry or specific area.
I've gone home at two in the morning just to come back
the next day at six to make sure
that something is out at nine.
That's sort of just the nature of this industry,
especially within New York.
There's no sympathy for the late hours.
If they set a deadline, they need it to be met.
I think that's just, again, it comes with the territory.
Depending on where you work, some companies pay
extraordinarily well.
Some, if they're maybe a smaller boutique firm,
may not pay as much, but, in the same breath,
some small boutique firms that are very high-caliber
will even pay more than some of the largest firms.
It really is just dependent on the culture,
the management, or whatever it may be.
I guess a typical range, all-in bonus, salary,
everything all-in for a financial job for someone my age
is typically between 90 and 150 thousand
depending on what group, within a bank,
or a private equity firm, or whatever it may be.
I'm not giving you my exact salary
because I guess within the world of finance,
it's negotiable to some extent.
It's just something that's been frowned upon
within finance, as far as I know,
to publicly display your salary in a way
that someone could potentially
hold another company accountable to say,
hey, why am I not getting paid this,
or why am I getting paid this and someone else
is getting paid that much more than me, whatever it may be.
Bonuses depend on discretion of your manager,
or your boss, I should say.
Your annual salary increase, if you wanna call it that,
I mean, it's probably 5% maybe, something in that range.
But, if you get promoted, obviously, it's more.
A lot of times you can ask, you may get shut down,
you may be welcomed with open arms for more money.
It really just depends on how you are perceived
within your company, if your company is even open
to doing things like that.
Some companies will just say no no matter what.
Even if you're an absolute all-star.
It is really dependent from company to company.

What is a Virtual Private Network | How VPN works and why VPN is not all you need for privacy - Duration: 12:37.
Most consumer Virtual Private Networks are terrible.
That is at least if privacy is your main concern.
There are of course different threat models, which will vary for each person.
But as a general rule, most VPNs are just scams stealing your browsing data.
Sometimes they even make you pay for it.
But there is an issue at user side when it comes to privacy and VPNs, even the trusted ones.
When you visit a website over a VPN, the only thing that changes on your advertising profile
they maintain, is your IP address.
Websites will still be able to track your browsing history and identify you through
browsing habits.
The only people you are protecting your browsing history from are your Internet service provider.
And that's only assuming you have a proper VPN that doesn't leak your private information.
To understand why this is a case, you need to learn three things – what is Virtual
Private Network, how VPNS work, and how websites track you.
To answer the first question, we are going to look at the purpose virtual private networks
entered the market.
As Internet was becoming predominantly widespread means of communication, companies started
building local networks to speed up their business.
But as businesses grew in size, many of them started to spread to off-site locations and
send their employees to work from home or while traveling.
To connect two company local area networks at a reasonable distance, business would have
to dedicate a real-world connection through physical infrastructure such as leased lines.
This wasn't a problem, if a company had two networks to bridge.
But the longer the distance and the more networks a company needed, the cost of leased lines
would grow exponentially.
Internet is a public network, open and visible to everyone.
No company could afford to risk data breaches and have their private information stolen
by anyone.
They needed a secure connection that was fast, reliable, and cost effective.
Thus came Virtual Private Networks.
VPN is a private network that makes "virtual" connections routed through a public network,
which could easily be and in most cases even was the Internet.
Connection through a VPN could answer specific company needs, like speed, data integrity,
or confidentiality.
Virtual private network is a flexible model that can adapt to various standards that corporations
needed to adopt.
This is the first very important point.
There is no single standard for building a VPN.
Each provider has its own structure and protocols, which offer different features, and not all
of them are privacy.
So how do VPNs work?
Basically what a VPN does is that it takes packets of data that would normally run through
an insecure network, like Internet, encapsulates them in an entirely new packet, and puts its
own VPN header on top of it, masking the original source of information.
This process is called tunneling and it is how VPNs mask your IP address.
This is why you can trick websites to having a different IP and bypass geolocation censorship.
But this is not what guarantees the confidentiality of your data.
For that you need encryption.
Data confidentiality was the most important feature companies usually needed.
VPNs achieve that by encrypting the traffic between a client and the VPN server.
This means that a company VPN client can encrypt data coming from their employee's laptop
working out in the field and connected to a local wifi.
For companies, this is near perfect security, because they can choose to host the VPN server
at their own headquarters, where the VPN decrypts all the traffic.
Encryption doesn't necessarily mean privacy.
For companies, encrypting their network gave them security layer to guard their data from
outside adversaries.
But it didn't give their employees within their network any level of privacy, because
the leadership of the company had direct access to their VPN server, and thus to traffic of
everyone connected to that VPN.
With your consumer VPN, you don't own the VPN server.
You have to trust a company maintaining the VPN server with you data.
Encryption still takes place on your device, where a VPN client configures your computer's
connection to be routed and encrypted through the VPN.
When the VPN server receives your data, it decrypts it and sends the request to a website
you are trying to visit.
Purely from analyzing the IP address, the website will only see connection from a private
VPN server, and not yours.
Provided it's a good VPN that doesn't leak other data that can identify you.
So by design, this is a totally different model from end-to-end encryption in email
communication.
And you should adjust your expectations accordingly.
The reason why VPNs work to protect corporate privacy but fail at guarding consumer privacy
is the fundamental design of VPN technology.
VPN server is always going to know some personally identifiable information about you.
Whether it's your real IP address, information you submitted upon account creation, and information
taken from your payment method.
The process of collecting this information is called logging, and there is not much you
can do to verify what a VPN company really does with user logs.
To help you better understand the issue with privacy on VPN, we are going to compare end-to-end
encrypted email service and a VPN service provided by the same company.
Protonmail's end-to-end encryption is done so well, that if you lose your password, they
are only able to recover access to your account, but all your messages will be discarded forever.
You'll lose your decryption key.
This may come as inconvenience, but it is actually an excellent defense mechanism to
protect yourself from hackers.
No one, not even Protonmail, can get access to your messages.
But the same company that offers Protonmail, also offers ProtonVPN.
And your expectations of privacy for these two products should differ significantly.
With email encryption, Protonmail can block itself from accessing your messages easily.
Users generate decryption keys, and Protonmail exchanges encryption keys.
Protonmail doesn't decrypt your messages.
Your web browser does.
But ProtonVPN has to both encrypt and decrypt your information.
Making ProtonVPN server a single point of failure.
A big cyber security no go.
Disclaimer – this is not just about ProtonVPN.
Every VPN provider has this problem.
It's technologically impossible to create a consumer VPN with perfect privacy.
Are VPNs useless for general Internet consumers?
For vast majority of VPNs out there yes.
But for a trusted few, and for specific threat models, VPNs can offer some protection from
your ISP, advertisers, and non-state hackers.
For example, the United States Federal Communications Commission recently repealed a rule barring
ISPs from selling your browsing history for advertising purposes.
This is incredible invasion of privacy, because they basically record what you do in your
living room to manipulate your economic activity.
So if you are in the Unites States, ISPs are selling your browsing history to whomever
they want.
This is not just a privacy violation, but also a security risk.
Because once they sell your browsing habits, hackers and foreign governments can and certainly
do intercept those exchanges to steal a copy of your private life.
There are databases of private information of millions of people available for sale or
for free and you'll never notice until you become a victim of a cyber crime.
Provided you can find a trusted VPN server, but be aware we are talking about a great
deal of trust here, it's sensible to hide your browsing habits from your ISP.
But the way the Internet works, you always have to trust someone.
And you need to decide for yourself whether it's going to be your monopolistic Internet
Service Provider giving you data caps, Internet censorship, and overpriced slow broadband
, or a Virtual Private Network made by privacy activists.
So how do you choose a VPN provider?
Well you need to do two things – you need to evaluate your threat model.
We will go over that on my channel in the future.
And you need to do a lot of research and educate yourself about the topic.
Never trust a single source.
Don't even look at torrentfreak or Pcmag reviews.
Look at what the community is saying about VPN providers.
One good source of reviews of a lot of features from a lot of VPN providers is at thatoneprivacysite.net.
Reddit is an excellent source of customer reviews and you can browse those without having
a Reddit account.
You need to ask yourself some questions to see what you care about the most.
Where is the jurisdiction of the VPN provider?
Is it in any of the 14 eyes countries that collaborate with the NSA on mass surveillance
and their government could force to log users?
What steps are you willing take against government surveillance?
Do you want to keep your private information away from manipulative advertisers?
Are you looking for protection of your sensitive information from hackers and cyber criminals
(on public wifi)?
Is your goal bypassing government censorship end geo-location blockade of Internet content?
What countries do you want to connect to websites from?
How much are you willing to pay for a VPN?
All of these questions are part of analyzing your threat model.
If privacy is your biggest concern, then VPN is not the solution.
Tor is.
If you want a better security when you connect to a Starbucks wifi, VPN is a great remedy.
Never EVER trust a free VPN.
Those are the most scammy out of all.
Although VPNs came as a cheaper solution for business networking compared to leased lines,
it's still pretty expensive to offer it as a free service.
But now we are getting to answer our third and most problematic question –
How can websites track you even if you use a VPN?
Let's say you find and buy your monthly subscription at a renowned VPN provider.
And then you do something like this.
You successfully configure your VPN connection, then you open your favorite web browser, which
should NEVER be Chrome, but statistically it most likely will be.
You login to your Gmail, which Chrome takes as if you are logging in to the browser itself
for syncing, and then you browse the web for all kinds of purposes – education, work,
entertainment, shopping, travel…
You just handed over ALL of your private information to the most privacy-violent corporation in
the world.
China doesn't have the surveillance capabilities of Google.
And Google will sell your privacy to every website and retailer you visit.
If you want to know more about how websites and advertisers track you everywhere on the
Internet, I recommend that you watch my video about Facebook surveillance and another video
on How to use Facebook anonymously.
If you don't block trackers properly, you are just wasting your money.
You need to re-assess your threat model.
You need to ask yourself: from whom are you trying to protect your private information?
Your Internet Service Provider, vendors of software and applications connecting to the
Internet, website operators, advertisers, governments, and hackers.
All of your adversaries use common points of access for data collection of your browsing
history – either through your ISP, trackers on websites, identification codes on software
and applications, and online communication tools, like emails and instant messengers.
For websites using trackers, everything about your identity remains unchanged except for
your IP address.
What stays visible is your device, which probably has a unique ID, your hardware, software,
configuration, operating system, software versions, web browser, browser plug-ins, extensions,
screen resolution, battery life… combination of all of these information and your browsing
habits make a unique personal identification.
You are giving many websites your real name to confirm your identity anyway, like your
Facebook and email accounts, and every online retailer that has your payment info.
If you are serious about privacy you need block access to all of these access points.
VPNs block ISPs.
Tor blocks governments.
How do you block websites from tracking you?
By using privacy configured web browsers, and by compartmentalizing your browsing habits
over separate browsers.
There are several extensions that block trackers, ads, cookies, and traffic analytics scripts.
Among the best are uMatrix, NoScript, uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, Cookie Autodelete,
and Decentraleyes.
You don't need to use all of these.
Properly configured uMatrix will make all the others redundant.
Take uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger, and set your browser to block 3rd party cookies
and delete them regularly.
But even if you go all these lengths, you'd still fail if you do the same mistake as I
described earlier.
You have to block access to websites with your online accounts, even pseudonymous ones,
to your browsing habits.
Have a separate browser for your social media, email, and banking, and a separate browser
for general surfing.
Only if you block all trackers, only if you put a wall between your online identities
and browsing habits, only then using a trusted privacy focused VPN has some sense.

What a Friend we have in Jesus * Animated Hymn Message - Duration: 2:37.
Deep in each one of us is the longing to be loved, appreciated and to hold a special position
in someone's heart.
We all started out trying to fill this void by initially looking up to our parents.
Think of those times in which all you ever believe is daddy said and mummy is your confidant!
And later on, the focus shifted to our friends.
And we had adventures playing all those pranks and tricks as young ones
And then there's that special friend who always turn your leg into jelly
and you love so much until most often, it culminates in marriage.
However, the truth is that we are often left disappointed from these quarters time and again.
But in Jesus, you will find a friend who shares all your sorrow and even though He knows all
your weaknesses, he remains faithful and true.
In trials, in temptations, in troubles, or what have you, it's a great privilege to
have a friend who is ready to share your burden and ultimately solve your challenges.
Interestingly, the hymn "What a Friend we have in Jesus" was originally written by
Joseph Scriven as a poem in 1855.
He wrote it to comfort his mother who was living in Ireland while he was in Canada.
While he was far away, he committed his mum to the One who is not bounded by space and time
He committed his mum to Jesus - the ever-faithful friend!
And if you are wondering about his piece, think of a friend who will lay down
his life for you, and you'll catch a glimpse of what he had in mind.
Are you despised?
Are you forsaken?
Are you cumbered with a load of care?
in Jesus, you'll find more than a solace for your soul.
Why not get acquainted with him?
Take your burdens to Him in prayer, and as you trust Him, you'll find Him an incomparable
friend that you can run to anytime with the assurance that He will never disappoint you!
Indeed, what a Friend we have in Jesus!

so an educator might be a teacher or a TED speaker
or an expert or a researcher in their field
and they pair those people with animators
who will work to bring their lesson idea to life
and to make those into a short, animated video,
so they're about five minutes long.
I work as an animation director and as an animator there
so I actually work with that educator to ideate,
so to make that lesson into, that script into a video.
As an animation director, what will happen is I will
get a script earlier on in the process and from there,
it's my job to research all of the information
in that script as I'm trying to,
of course it's been fact-checked when it's come to me
already so I'm not doing research in the typical sense
but more in a visual sense, so I'll look at other artists'
work for inspiration, I'll spend some time on Pinterest,
I'll be reading up a lot of extra information
about the topic, looking at all the different theories
and communicating with the educator quite a bit
to ask questions and get more information.
And then from there, I start to put together a style board
or a look and feel for the project,
so I'll start to decide what method of animation I'll use
because I work in traditional animation,
so I do stop motion, hand drawn, a lot of tactile elements
as well and then I'll start to create characters
and storyboards and at that point,
decide if I need other people onboard with me
to help me execute the project.
As animation directors at TED-Ed,
we get creative freedom, so we do get to decide
what style and what way to execute the project
we get to do each time, which is a major perk.
That said, if anything that we're doing is not in service
of the information, so it's very important
that we're creating an overall educational film.
So the educator can step in and say, this is inaccurate,
you've portrayed this person incorrectly,
that color implies this and that's incorrect, whatever,
but they can't say, oh I don't like your character design.
So that's the line, so we do get a lot of feedback
throughout from both the educator and our internal team
so that's the other animation directors who work
through our producer, our script supervisor,
our director up top, so it is, there's plenty of feedback
being given but we also work on super tight timelines
so you don't really have the option of it not being done,
it's kind of just done when it's time to go online, so.
TED-Ed produces 150 animated shorts a year,
which is a lot, and in house, we do about 20 of those,
I do five of those per year, each one is about eight
to 10 weeks production timeline,
which is actually really short for animation,
so short animation, I've also spent on a personal project
on a five-minute film two years before
so it is, this is a scaled-down version of that production
so we start, we basically pick up a script
before we finish our next project,
so that way, or our current project, so that way,
when we finish the project, we dive right into the next one.
My most recent project is about this manuscript
called the Voynich manuscript and actually
it came up in a script meeting and as I had mentioned,
it's not a topic that I'm normally interested in
but I just quickly googled the book to see the images
of it and it's a lot of these weirdly stylistic drawings
of plants and creatures that may or may not exist
and just was really fascinating stylistically to me
and also I really like plants and that sort of thing
so it seemed something in my range anyway.
And I got kind of obsessed with the idea
of seeing the pages of the book actually move
and seeing that, this object, which is from,
dated to the 1400s, come to life.
So I flagged it and eventually took that project on
and it was a big challenge because,
so this book lives at Yale University's Rare Book
and Manuscript Library, which means that you can't touch it
or turn its pages or really interact with it at all
so it was our job to do all of that either digitally
or some other method, so I knew that I wanted to have
some digital animation of the actual book pages
from the high-res photographs that exist of it,
but I also knew that I wanted to see the book in space
and I couldn't have that unless I physically created
a small version of that, so we actually made a miniature
Voynich manuscript, it's only a few pages long,
but that gave us the option of making stop-motion animation
and having the actual book's pages unfold in the book.
And then that also helped me figure out,
because one of the challenges in this project
was what method of animation do I use
when I'm not in the book pages, and I knew that I didn't
want to draw animation for it because I thought
that that would conflict with the already existing
style of drawing that's in the book itself,
but I had to tell a story through history
while also showing the pages of the book,
so it ended up being really helpful to use stop motion
to depict this because it was a very obvious change
from the digital landscape of the book's pages
to the stop-motion characters, so that part was super fun
for me because I got to make small puppets
that were all done in pen and ink and then water-colored
and very precariously cut out and then those were all moved
under the camera with map tacks as their joints,
so we used a piece of foam core that was covered with paper
under the camera and placed down those puppets
and all of their joints were operated from these tacks
right here and then I did all of that stop motion animation
under the camera, so that was my area,
but also this was, so this decision at the very beginning
was really an important one because it also dictated
that I needed someone else to work on the project with me
so I work in after effects and Photoshop in animation
all the time but it's not my, after effects is not
my strength so I have worked with this one artist before
who's really, not just good at making after effects
animation but she also really enjoys it,
which is where I fall off, I don't enjoy it at all.
Really like moving objects under a camera
but I knew Catelyn, who came onto the project and helped me,
would really just do a great job,
so she took over that entire section
and that was really fun for me because I was able to let her
also have ownership of a piece of the project as well.
So I also, in addition to my work at TED,
which is my full-time job, I also work as a freelance
animation director and I do similar explainer videos, PSAs,
short videos or experiments, whatever, on the side
and so between the two of those jobs,
I basically make around 80,000 a year,
that can change depending on the year.
But of course, I have the full-time job
that serves as something very sure and regular.
And it really depends, animation's a very,
it's lot bigger of an industry than it seems,
it seems quite niche but there's actually so many niches
inside of it, so I have friends who work in advertising
for animation and that's of course a higher end of income,
friends who work for big studios like a Pixar
or a Dreamworks or a Cartoon Network and feature film
is gonna be different than television.
I started in animation in the independent animation world
which is the low end of that, working on documentary stuff
and short films, festival films,
projects, ads when they come in, but that's the lower
end of it, so a freelance animator can make,
and I know this 'cause I hire them often for projects,
can make anywhere from 400 to 1200 a day
depending on the kind of animation that they do
and also what level they're at,
so you have a junior animator versus a senior animator,
someone who's been out of school for a minute
or someone who's been doing it for a decade.
So those would all be different rates within that range
but that's typically the range
and of course that's a freelance rate,
so that doesn't include things like healthcare or benefits
packages and it's, you get work when you get work.
So there are a lot of jobs within the umbrella of animation.
For what I do as an animation director
and especially working on educational material,
it's important to be really strong with visual storytelling
and some of that is something that just comes
from having watched a lot of content
and some of it's from having made the content,
worked under directors who made great decisions
that you watched and sometimes terrible decisions
that you watched so that way, you can learn from that.
But I would say that's the number one important skill
is that visual storytelling, which comes with a sense
of what's best to have onscreen to tell this story.
But in addition to that, there's so much,
so animators have to be, have to know a lot about drawing,
about cinematography, about how you light a scene,
about mood and composition, to be able to storyboard
and they have to know at least a little bit about sound
design and how to direct other people,
how to take direction from other people.
I would say one of the things that I've been able to learn
thanks to my role at TED-Ed, because we turn over pieces
so quickly and we are working just for two months
on a project and then it's a totally different style
and topic for the next two months,
you really learn to get rid of things that don't work
and to also not be afraid to share ideas you have
when they're in really really really rough places
and that's a thing that I was totally afraid to do
before I started this job.
I would wanna perfect a thing before sharing it
and you just don't learn that way
and you also don't get the best product that way.
So it's a lot about that but I also think it takes a lot
to know what your strengths are, so for me,
I learned pretty quickly in school that I really wanted
to have my hands on the whole process,
and I also, in learning that, learned that I'm not
the best character animator, for example,
but that does mean that I can identify someone
who is much better than me and hire them to come on
to the project and everyone benefits from that,
including the project that you're making.

What's New 2018 Tailstock Support - Duration: 1:22.
Mastercam 2018 includes a new Tailstock Operations strategy for Mill-Turn machines.
The new Tailstock Operations strategy is located on the Mill-Turn Turning tab in the Part Handling gallery.
In the Tailstock Operations dialog, you choose a strategy and then set parameters for each of the operations included in the strategy.
Use Tailstock Operations to quickly create a set of operations to load a center tool, move to stock clearance and, if applicable, advance the quill.
The available tailstock options differ depending on the selected machine.
For example, not all machines allow quill actions.
You can also create a set of tailstock operations to retract the quill and tailstock, and unload the center tool.

Iyanla Vanzant: "What Happens to You Doesn't Change Who You Are" | Iyanla: Fix My Life | OWN - Duration: 1:11.
IYANLA VANZANT: See, shame is not something anybody can put on you,
shame is something you wear. We shame ourselves even when no one
knows that we're ashamed. Are you ashamed of yourself?
Because if nobody knew, what were you feeling ashamed of?
Who you are? Because of what happened to you,
and that's a schism that we got to correct.
What happens to you doesn't change who you are,
and who you are is who you tell yourself you are.
So we really wanna do some work on reprogramming that inventory
so that you can stand in your story and your
identity with a whole new energy.
That is absolutely essential.

A pocket-size revolution in kidney research - Duration: 1:47.
Every day, your kidneys filter blood and produce urine,
making them a vital part of your ability to process medications.
They also help your body synthesize Vitamin D to maintain strong bones.
Kidney disease can develop over decades, so many people don't go to the doctor
until the disease is more advanced, meaning
researchers don't know what early stage markers look like.
At the University of Washington School of Pharmacy, researchers are addressing these challenges
with a device called kidney-on-a-chip. The size of a credit card, kidney-on-a-chip contains
live kidney cells that imitate the functions of a human kidney.
Because it takes so long for kidney conditions to develop, we're sending kidney-on-a-chip to
a place where time speeds up — the International Space Station — so scientists can
finally observe the early stages of kidney disease.
Conditions like osteoporosis and kidney stones, which may take years to form on Earth,
develop in weeks or months in microgravity.
Researchers are hoping for breakthroughs that benefit kidney patients and astronauts,
including the first people to make the long journey to Mars.
Thanks to kidney-on-a-chip, the School of Pharmacy hopes to transform what we know
about kidney function. This means better and earlier treatments for kidney disease,
as well as the ability to prevent it, both here on Earth and beyond.

What is the "job" of a McDonald's milkshake? - Duration: 7:10.
(light music)
- To give you an illustration of how we
develop this in a deeper way,
McDonald's approached this, and McDonald's
is a very sophisticated marketing company.
They have data up the kazoo.
They decided that they needed to innovate
in their milkshake product line
so that more people will buy milkshakes.
They had data that allowed them to draw
a quintessential customer of milkshakes,
milkshake customers.
They then would identify this profile
of a milkshake customer.
Turns out I fit that profile very well.
They would then invite people who hit the profile
into conference rooms and they'd ask them questions,
trying to understand, "How could we improve the milkshakes
"so you'll buy more of them?"
They'd get very clear feedback.
They would then improve the milkshake
on those dimensions of performance,
and it had no impact on sales or profits whatsoever.
So we invited ourselves, and they agreed,
that we could try to approach it in a very different way.
That is, you know, there's a job out there somewhere
that arises in people's life on occasion,
that causes them to need to buy a milkshake.
We need to understand what the job is
that causes people to buy a milkshake.
One of our colleagues stood in a McDonald's restaurant
for 18 hours one day, and just took very careful notes,
on what time did he buy the milkshake?
What was he wearing?
Was he alone or with other people?
Did he buy other food with it, or just the milkshake?
Did he eat it in the restaurant,
or did he go off in a car and take off?
It turned out that about half of the milkshakes
were sold before 8:30 in the morning.
It was the only thing they bought.
They were always alone.
They always got in the car and drove off with it.
We came the next morning and positioned ourselves
outside the restaurant so that we could confront
these people as they were emerging with their milkshake.
In language that they could better understand,
we asked them, "Excuse me.
"You're creating real trouble for me.
"Can you explain what job arose in your life
"that caused you to come here at 6:30 in the morning
"to hire a milkshake?
"What's the job to be done here?"
They would struggle to answer why they came at 6:30.
We'd ask them, "Step back a minute, and think about
"the last situation in which you had the same situation,
"needing to get the same job done, but you didn't
"come here to hire a milkshake from McDonald's.
"What did you hire to get the job done?"
One guy said, "Yeah, I hire donuts to do the job,
"but I can never hire just one."
Another guy said, "I do bagels.
"But boy, they're dry and they're tasteless.
"So I have to put cream cheese on,
"and steer the car with my knees
"while I'm putting cream cheese on."
It turns out one of them said,
"I hired a Snickers bar to do the job,
"but I felt so guilty.
"I've never hired Snickers again."
One guy said, "You know, I never thought about it before.
"But last Friday I hired a banana to do the job.
"But it doesn't do the job very well at all.
"You finish it in less than a minute.
"But let me tell you, when I go to McDonald's,
"it is so viscous it takes me about 23 minutes
"to suck it up that thin little straw.
"I don't care what the ingredients are.
"All I know is when 10 o'clock comes,
"I'm still full."
The job that all of these people were trying to get done
was "I have a long and boring drive to work,
"and I needed something that would just keep me
"engaged with life while I'm driving a car.
"I'm not hungry yet.
"But I know I'll be hungry by 10 o'clock."
So also part of the job is,
"I need something to eat that would keep myself full
"when 10 o'clock happens."
That's the job that they're hiring the milkshake to do.
That is, they have a long and boring drive to work,
and they needed to add dimensions of it
to keep them engaged with life.
From the customer's point of view,
the milkshake does the job better
than any of the competitors.
The competitors, from the customer's point of view,
are not just in the product category.
But they draw from bananas and donuts
and bagels, as I mentioned.
When you think about how big the job is,
you have to look at who the real competitors are
from the customer's point of view.
They come from very different categories.
How big is the market for milkshakes?
It's a serious question.
Well, who knows?
But the size of the milkshake just isn't
the sum of the milkshakes at Burger King,
Wendy's, and McDonald's milkshakes.
But it includes, from the customer's point of view,
all of those other attributes
of bananas, donuts, bagels, Snickers bars.
When they implemented this insight
in the portions of America where they developed it,
it turned out to be seven times bigger
than they had thought, when it was marketed
only by the attributes.
Most markets are characterized that way.
There is a lot of nonconception.
You can understand how to improve it
only if you understand the job to be done.
