When Data/File based workflows started in movies (around 2004), 2-3 copies was the standard from the get go and ideally this was with MD5 checksums (currently xxhash is more common because it's alot faster). LTO backups are also generally part of the copy chains as the 3rd or 4th copy. Before that, duplication with tape was while recording wasn't as common, but it was more common to duplicate after recording. Although you'd have some amount of generation loss depending on the format, not so with recording to multiple decks with the same source video. With film it obviously wasn't possible but original negative (o-neg) was much more cautiously handled. You'd have copies made going to an interpositive for editing and dailies process. Those wouldn't an identical quality so to get a negative copy, you'd be 2 generations of loss. By the time you're seeing a print in a theater, it would be 3 generations. (one->IP->IN->print)

The corruption runs deeper than you'd ever think. A multi-billion dollar industry you've never heard of. This is the world Patent Trolls thrive in: created for them by the U.S. Patent system.

The Micronics printer looked very promising. Seems like a good fit with Formlabs.

Robert lost alot of credibility with me after the yellow rain incident. https://current.org/2012/10/search-for-truth-results-in-radi...

Jad's defense of the story was also meh.

"I thought if we could encourage sharing of ideas between different areas of knowledge, perhaps more of the bigger picture would emerge, and eventually more wisdom might develop. Sort of a trickle-up theory of information leading to knowledge leading to wisdom.

This was the underlying inspiration for HyperCard..."

Diet can play a big factor in autoimmune disorders. proteins leaking from the gut into the bloodstream can trigger a strong immune system reaction which makes the autoimmune disorder flare up.
