The feature has since been expanded to over 50 cities. Leveraging AI and augmented reality, Lens in Maps helps users get their bearings in a new location by providing information about nearby amenities like ATMs, transit stations, and dining options. ![]() It also includes a dynamic time slider indicating how conditions such as air quality and weather change throughout the day, helping users plan their trips with more precision.Īnother significant improvement is the integration of Lens in Maps, an evolution of the Search with Live View feature. Launched last year, the tool combines billions of Street View and aerial images to create an intricate digital representation of the world, allowing users to visually navigate through bike lanes, sidewalks, intersections, and parking spaces along their route. One notable recent update in this regard is the Immersive View for Routes, which provides a comprehensive preview of a user's journey, whether they are driving, walking, or cycling. Google has introduced several enhancements aimed at enriching the user experience through advanced AI technology and more immersive visualization tools, and has even taken a leaf or two out of Apple's book. Have Apple's incremental improvements been enough for it to be considered an equal to Google Maps in users' eyes? Of course, Google developers have not stood idly by watching Apple Maps' gradual evolution. And in iOS 17, Apple made it possible to download maps for offline use – something Google Maps users have been able to do for quite some time. In iOS 15, Apple introduced immersive walking directions shown in augmented reality, curated guides for select cities, real-time transit updates, and more road details for enhanced driving navigation. A Look Around feature in select cities is similar to Google's Street View, and the updated maps have been rolling out to more countries in the time since. In early 2020, Apple completed an overhaul of its maps in the United States, adding significantly greater detail including updated buildings, parks, sports fields, pools, and more. In 2015, Maps was updated with "Nearby," a feature that offers up local points of interest and transit directions in a handful of cities. Real-time traffic information and navigation options for pedestrians were added to Maps in 2013, which is also the same year Maps was extended to OS X. Since then, Apple has made significant improvements to Apple Maps, building in new features and correcting lingering errors. Apple CEO Tim Cook offered a rare public apology for the frustration it caused customers, and iOS chief Scott Forstall was ousted just one month later. ![]() Launched in September 2012, Apple Maps was quickly criticized for having incomplete and inaccurate mapping data, which led some iPhone users on dangerous routes. Which do you prefer to get you from A to B? still have Google Maps downloaded as an alternative to Apple Maps, which comes preinstalled on all iPhones. However, according to data from Canalys, the overwhelming majority of iPhones in the U.S. Apple Maps has been providing navigational guidance to Apple users for almost 13 and a half years now, and much has changed about the app in that time.

![]() Pascal, feeling guilt for having taught them the concept of fear, mentally breaks down and asks that A2 fulfill his final request: erase his memories, and therefore who he is, or kill him. When the two return to the factory, they find all the children committed suicide out of fear of dying. A2 and an enraged Pascal take up arms against the machines and eventually overcome the enemy force when Pascal takes control of an Engels and kills them all. This proves to be a mistake, however, as a force of machines descends upon the factory. After dispatching the zombie machines, she and Pascal take the child machines to the Abandoned Factory to hide from the machines. She tells Pod 042 that they need to locate Pascal immediately. ![]() A2 returns to the village, only to find it in flames and the villagers feeding on each other. After obtaining a book on philosophy from Anemone, Pascal's village turns on itself with some of the machines becoming cannibalistic. ![]() Hesitantly, A2 receives help from Pascal, and in turn, helps him and his villagers with requests. After dispatching them, A2 spares the machine, despite her grudge, and continues to the camp.Īfter reuniting with Anemone, A2 finds out she needs Pascal's help in order to get a filter. After heading to the Resistance Camp, A2 meets Pascal, who is under attack by several hostile machines. After falling unconscious and reawaking, Pod informs A2 that her filter is full of sand and must be replaced. A mirage of 2B appears to her and tells her that she and A2 are the same, with A2 angrily rejecting the notion by throwing her sword at where 2B appeared. She defeats the machine and hacks into its mainframe, ultimately annihilating its core. He then directs her to the Desert.Ī2 arrives at the desert and encounters a Goliath-class Machine named Hegel. After requesting her motives several times, A2 finally relents and tells the Pod that her goal is to destroy machines. A2 scoffs at the notion of needing help and tells the Pod to shut up. A2 wonders about the Pod following her and is told that 2B's final order insisted that Pod 042 should assist A2. A2 is caught within the pillars' movements and is knocked unconscious.Ī2 wakes up on a piece of debris with Pod 042 greeting her a good morning. As he runs towards her, he falls off a bridge while gigantic pillars rise from the ground, forming the Tower. A2 cuts her hair with 2B's sword in a style reminiscent of the deceased android. 9S has a mental breakdown and angrily proclaims that he will kill the rogue android. ![]() A2 stabs 2B with her sword while 9S watches her take the sword out of 2B's bloodied corpse. Realizing there's no hope for survival, 2B relegates her sword and memories to A2. 2B and 9S attempt to give chase but realize she's already gone.Īfter the defeat of Adam and Eve, when a corrupted 2B is being accosted by androids of YoRHa, A2 appears and disposes of her assailants. A2 mentions that Command was the one who betrayed them and escapes. Following A2's defeat, 9S asks her why she betrayed them. 9S questions the directive while 2B initiates a battle against the mysterious A2. Pod 153 warns the pair that A2 is a wanted android and is recommended for annihilation. A2 is first encountered by 2B and 9S killing Immanuel. We worked with National Grid Ventures to propose a clean energy project that provides the reliability customers need at the best cost possible and with reduced impact on local communities.” “This project uses the most efficient design to be ready to carry clean, renewable wind power for New Jersey homes and businesses. “The Garden State Energy Path will enable the grid to accommodate new sources of renewable energy and handle increased demand as customers transition away from fossil fuels,” said Stuart Nachmias, President of Con Edison Transmission. “Pre-build infrastructure is a smart and coordinated approach to transmission for offshore wind, reducing the need to separately construct transmission infrastructure for each offshore wind project.” With our partners at Con Edison Transmission, we designed a cost-effective project that has the flexibility to support the latest grid technologies,” said Will Hazelip, President of National Grid Ventures, US Northeast. “New Jersey communities can rely on the Garden State Energy Path to provide a route that reduces community disruption and maximizes benefits. ![]() NGV and Con Edison Transmission both bring decades of experience in building underground transmission projects, and a longstanding reputation for developing and operating such infrastructure in the Northeast. This project is foundational to helping New Jersey reach its goal of 11 gigawatts (GW) of offshore wind by 2040. The project consists of “pre-build infrastructure” that will house the cables carrying electricity generated by four wind projects to the grid. ![]() The project will be underground, allowing the cables to be protected from storms and other extreme weather that can cause customer outages. The Garden State Energy Path will enable delivery of approximately 6 gigawatts of offshore wind power from its point of landfall at the Sea Girt National Guard Training Center to the Larrabee Tri-Collector Station, in Howell Township. National Grid Ventures (NGV) and Con Edison Transmission this week submitted a proposal to build transmission infrastructure that will carry offshore wind power to New Jersey’s electric grid. ![]() In this first part of the lesson we will be going over how to make linear gradients in Inkscape. ![]() The following video tutorial will walk you through the process of working with linear and radial gradients in Inkscape:Ĭontinue on for a brief written overview of the lesson. In this lesson we’ll be going over how to work with each of the four in Inkscape. The four different types of gradients you can make in Inkscape. Here’s a depiction of the four different types of gradients to better illustrator how they work: Conical gradients: a gradient type where colors follow a partially circular path.Mesh gradients: mesh gradients are when the colors are applied to a grid.Radial gradients: these gradients force the colors to follow a circular path.Linear gradients: these are transitions between colors that follow a straight (or “linear”) path.In Inkscape there are four different types of gradients you can work with: We’ll also be using the Fill & Stroke menu to edit the gradients further and apply color. In short, there’s two different tools we’ll be working with to make gradients in Inkscape - the Gradients Tool and the Mesh Tool. In this tutorial we’ll be going over everything you need to know to make gradients in Inkscape including linear, radial, mesh, and conical gradients. I’d just be sure to go into preferences first and set the bitmap export DPI to something >300, otherwise you’ll get “jagged” edges with the default 96dpi.Gradients are transitions between various colors, and they’re an essential part of graphic design and digital art in general. If the 1” size is too small I’d start over and follow workflow starting with the logo scaled to whatever size you want. Inkscape is really good at stuff like this The rescaling action is literally 10 seconds to do once you get familiar with it. …and now your logo is now in a circle that is 1” from the outer edge. use the alignment buttons to recenter things.That’ll also scale the height by the same. select the existing too-small cut circle.If you did want the logo to be 1” tall, then the way I’d handle fixing your cut circle scale now would be ![]() This is fundamental Inkscape skill set stuff, if you get the hang of it it’ll pay you back many times over. That same technique works with bitmap copy too, just like showed. The way did it was to scale the logo to 1”, I can see why she did, your phrasing could be read that way. This is why I was advocating scaling it before exporting. I would like it to be one inch from the outer edge of the logo New logo black and white 2.zip (538.4 KB) I attached the PNG of the logo from before resizing it. Then I forgot I can’t upload an svg with a photo in it on the forum, so it should be in this zip file. I deleted the original vector file from this, but you should be able to recreate it. I realized that the outer circle of your original logo fell outside of my circle, so I resized it to 0.99-inches to get it to fall into the cut circle (not sure if this was needed or not)Īlign and distribute the circles for just in case I didn’t have it centered.Īnd that was it. I made a 1-inch circle and assigned a stroke color to make it cut I took the copy and resized it to 1-inch. Selected everything and grouped it (this is because I have a habit of moving elements without realizing it)Ĭlick on Edit-Make Bitmap Copy (I have it set to save at a high DPI…I think I did this a while ago in Preferences) I’m a little tired so I don’t know if I’m following exactly, but here is what I did: ![]() From a distance it’s hard to notice the mistakes (alignment issues). 8-Bit End Grain Goomba | Super Mario Brosĭespite a few flaws, I’m pretty happy with how Goomba turned out.

All well-informed flat Earthers believe that the Earth is a circle. 4116 comes from 4111 – “Flat.” And 4111 means to “ shape” and “mold.” However, ball Christian Earthers use Isaiah 40:42 – where it says “The circle of the Earth” as a rebuttal against flat Earthers. ![]() In Revelation 20:9 and 21:16, the Apostle John mentions “The breadth of the Earth.” Inquisitive minds want to know, why the word, “breadth?” Strong’s English – Hebrew – Greek concordance cites that the word “breadth” actually means “flat.” According to Strong’s Concordance, the number 4114 comes from 4116. There are at least 200 verses, some say more, that proclaim a flat geocentric Earth, even the last book of the Bible mentions it. Many well intended Christian apologists claim that the Bible never mentions a flat Earth. So, what gives here? For the purpose of this chapter, I shall refer to the firmament as a “dome.” I am doing this because the Hebrew word for firmament comes from the word “Raqiya” – which means “an expanse” “an visible arch of the sky.” The root word is “Raqa” – “to overlay,” “ to expand.” They often pictured it flat, with a firmament (like a tent) covering the Earth. However, in the past the ancients, although knowing it was a circle, and not a globe, depicted the Earth differently. This picture became known by the title that was given to it: “The Blue Marble.” More on the “images” and “pictures” of the alleged “blue marble” in chapter nineteen. Twenty six years later, on December 7th, the Apollo 17 mission took the following picture. On October 24, 1946, the V2 Rocket #13 became the first man-made object to take a photograph of the Earth from space. And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the Earth. And God made two great lights the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: He made the Stars also. And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the Earth: and it was so. And God said let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years. and God made the firmament and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the Firmament: and it was so. And God said let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. ![]() ![]() The Dow retreated from previous record levels in early 2022 as the Fed embarked on its policy tightening campaign to fend off inflation. ![]() "It appears that the Fed is moving in the market's direction, rather than the market moving towards the Fed. "The Fed has given the market an early holiday gift today when, finally, for the first time, they have commented positively about inflation," said Gina Bolvin, president of Bolvin Wealth Management Group. The Fed's meeting statement acknowledged that inflation "has eased" over the past year and the central bank formally lowered its inflation forecast for 2024, seeing a 2.4% rate down from 2.6%. The central bank held the benchmark overnight borrowing rate steady in the 5.25% to 5.5% range as expected, but more importantly it forecast three rate cuts in 2024, which were more than it had previously indicated. Investors have been increasingly hoping for the Fed to give a clearer signal that it would start cutting rates next year with recent inflation data easing. All three major averages hit fresh 52-week highs. The S&P 500 jumped 1.37% to finish the session at 4,707.09 - crossing 4,700 for the first time since January 2022 - while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 1.38%. At its session high, the Dow touched 37,094.85. This marks the first time the benchmark closed above the 37,000 mark - exceeding a previous record set in January 2022. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped to a record Wednesday as the Federal Reserve signaled it would cut rates several times next year, satisfying investors who hoped the central bank would finally start to acknowledge the slowing trend of inflation with a less-aggressive monetary stance.
