Geometrics: Distinctly modern feel by being based entirely on geometric shapes Futura and Century Gothic are examples.Humanists: Slightly more calligraphic they include Calibri, Lucida Sans and Verdana.Neo-grotesques (aka transitional, realist): Plain and easy to read the famous Helvetica is one of these.Early sans serifs became known as “grotesques” because people found them so ugly.Īfter the grotesques, three other categories of sans serif emerged: People did not adapt to the change easily. The word “sans” in French means “without.” So there you have it: sans serifs lack those little tabs and tails that, up until the 1830s, were in practice mandatory. _ Left to right: Helvetica, Lucida Sans and Verdana typefaces The typewriter also introduced monospacing, or forming a typeface in which every glyph is the exact same width.Īlso known as: Egyptian, Square Serif, MechanicalĮxamples: Clarendon, Rockwell, Playbill, Courier. ![]() They are basically modern typeface styles, fattened up with thick, block-like strokes. The Slab serif arrived to fill this need. Courier is an example of a monospaced slab typeface Up until the 19th century, type was almost always intended for book reading.Īround the beginning of the 1800s, though, new uses for text became popular: advertisements, posters, and large newspaper headlines – things designed to catch your eye. _ Left to right: Clarendon, Rockwell and Playbill typefaces Nowadays, the style exudes luxury and high fashion. The style takes the stylistic progression of the Old Style and Transitional typefaces to its ultimate conclusion: super fat thick strokes contrast with hairline thin strokes with abrupt, right angle serifs. The first Modern font, by Italian printer Giambattista Bodoni, appeared in 1784 but the style really became in vogue (and in Vogue) in the 20th century. _ Left to right: Bodoni, Didot and Walbaum typefaces Thin strokes get thinner and thick strokes get thicker the amount of serif tails increases the vertical and horizontal axes rule - diagonal strokes and leaning attitudes disappear (except in italics, of course).įor a 300 year old style, we still use transitional fonts all the time today.Įxamples: Baskerville, Times New Roman, Georgia 5. It takes Old Style a step further, eliminating all remaining traces of handwritten calligraphy in favor of a fully mechanical look (the Enlightenment was all about ditching tradition and celebrating invention). This style came about in the Enlightenment period (18th century). _ Left to right: Baskerville, Times New Roman and Georgia typefaces Though its name might suggest otherwise, most people would find Old Style the first modern-looking typeface.Įxamples: Goudy Old Style, Palantino, Cheltenham 4. The horizontal axis becomes more prominent (no more sloped cross-bars on the “e,” for instance), while italics emerge for the first time. More sophisticated molding technology allowed for greater contrast between thick and thin strokes and more delicate serif tails. Old Style type was the first style to emerge in the era of movable type letterpress printing (late 15th century), rather than calligraphy and scribes. _ Left to right: Goudy Old Style, Palantino and Cheltenham typefaces The median height of its letters is distinctively low which has caused it to fall out of popularity nowadays.Įxamples: Centaur, Adobe Jenson, Verona SB 3. It is much lighter and less blocky than Blackletter, making it a lot easier to read by today’s standards. This typeface style emerged around 1460 and was based on the script style of Italian humanist thinkers. _ Left to righ: Centaur, Adobe Jenson and Verona SB typefaces The tall, narrow, sharp and blocky Blackletter emerged in solution.Īlso known as: Gothic, Block, Fraktur, Textura, Old English 2. When books became more popular with the rise of universities, scribes needed a more efficient typeface than Carolingian-something easier to write and more dense, so more type could fit on a single page. It is the direct descendent of Carolingian minuscule, which itself came from Uncial script. ![]() It emerged in Europe in the middle ages (around 1150 AD) and stuck around well into the 17th century – especially in Germany. _ Left to right: Uncial script, Carolingian miniscule, Blackletter typefacesīlackletter is the oldest typeface style that still has significant echoes in modern type. You may notice many of these old styles echoed in the modern type we see today. Now without further delay, let’s dive into the most fascinating chapter of all: the evolution of typeface style, leading right up to the massive array of fonts we have to choose from now. Over the past few weeks, we have gone over basic key terms in typography and explored the history of type technology. By now, you have probably realized that we at 99designs are totally smitten with the alphabet – arguably the longest ongoing graphic design project in human history.

![]() She ended the stream by singing hololive anthem Shiny Smily Story, promising to make Yagoo's dream come true, a reference to the founder's initial vision of hololive as an idol agency. She was extremely nervous at the beginning of the stream, during which spoke English, Japanese and German. Her debut stream opened with a storybook animation narrated by Mori Calliope. She was the second member of hololive -Myth- to debut. Kiara made her debut stream on 12 September 2020. A simultaneous announcement was made at the hololive Twitter account, and the hololive English Twitter account. On 8 September 2020, Takanashi Kiara was first revealed in a short promotional video alongside the other four members of hololive -Myth. Kiara's YouTube channel and Twitter accounts were created on 16 July. The members of -Myth- began training around June 2020, three months before their debut. Although she did not expect to be selected at first, she describes her confidence in her skillset as a factor in her success. Kiara was able to prepare for the third round by successfully estimating what would be asked of her, and credits her talent for creativity for helping her to think on the spot. She made it through to a second and third round of auditions, both of which involved phone calls. ![]() She recorded a number of takes for a song cover. She wrote a script for her audition in a Word document in the space of two hours in a burst of inspiration. Kiara learned about the holoEN auditions after they had already begun, and entered about halfway through the audition period. The initial round of auditions ran until 24 May. On 23 April 2020, following the success of the Japanese-language hololive VTuber group, Cover Corporation announced auditions for English-speaking members. After many setbacks in life, Kiara unluckily emigrated to Japan on a one-time visa just before the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, leaving her without any work and preventing her from visiting her homeland. ![]() ![]() She first heard of hololive when she discovered Shirakami Fubuki, and subsequently became such an avid fan of Usada Pekora that she boasted she had watched all of her YouTube videos. Takanashi Kiara was a fan of hololive before auditioning herself. She has a small white chef's hat and a red beret that has a black bow with white stars on it. She has a greenish bow ribbon around her neck and wears a mostly orange uniform. She has medium-length coral hair that fades into a teal green with similarly colored shiny feathery earrings and magenta eyes. Watson Amelia, in her debut stream, described Kiara as having a "positive attitude and lovely voice." Mori Calliope described her as a hard worker and an incredible singer with a great personality, and praised her fluency with Japanese. However, she often surprises viewers with moments of gentleness, compassion, and insightful wisdom. On a graph ranking members in purity and intelligence, Kiara was rated "bottom left"-maximum lewd and foolish, much to her bemusement. Her fanbase is no different, as the KFP have regularly been subjects of her gratitude for their support, while also playfully experiencing her frustration by getting sent to "The Usual Room". While her relationship with Mori Calliope may be described as flirtatious in nature, their interactions continue to reinforce the trust and comradely spirit between the two. Kiara is very fond of her genmates, and regularly mentions and commends them for their hard work, both on-stream and on social media. She prefers video games with fixed goals, such as RPGs, rather than open-world games like Minecraft. She is sometimes bird-brained, being forgetful or having a short attention span. Her energetic personality is also prevalent in her original songs, most notably SPARKS and HINOTORI, as they both have fast-paced beats and lyrics that feature an encouraging and positive message.Īlthough energetic and sometimes chaotic in nature, and eager to collab with other members, she is secretly quite shy. Kiara has no problem taking the lead in collaborations, and performing as host whenever the situation calls for it. She has seemingly no trouble holding a conversation with other talents, both within and outside of hololive. She cares strongly for her friends and family, and misses them a great deal while she is abroad. Kiara is enthusiastic, energetic, passionate, and friendly, and is open with her feelings. She works extremely hard since she will be reborn from ashes anyway. Kiara is a phoenix, NOT a chicken or turkey. An idol whose dream is to become a fast food shop owner.

![]() These cars, like many other fullsize cars, don't make great road racers or autocrossers, but they sure have their place cruising the street and can get up and go if needed. It wasn't until 1970 that the Fury Sport GT model was released, and ordered with a 440 engine topped with a six-pack carb setup. An extra-optioned VIP model was developed in 1966 and ran through 1969. The other two were the popular models among the average consumer, each with an increasing option list. The Fury I model was the bare-bones version usually ordered in fleets for taxis and other services. It came in three flavors: Fury I, Fury II, and Fury III. ![]() Ordering this Plymouth fullsized car in '65 was pretty simple. Unless you're a Pontiac fan, the Nova is a more economical choice. Unfortunately, the 1.5 milion Novas made verses the 350,000 Venturas made draws their values up. Early Camaro suspension parts are also interchangeable. ![]() This would make aftermarket parts readily available to transform the Ventura anyway you could want. The Ventura shared skeletons with the Chevy Nova, Oldsmobile Omega, and Buick Apollo. Later they would also replace the Chevy 250 I-6 with the Buick 231 V-6 found in the '80s Regals. Plans to continue the GTO package through 1975 were dropped when GM decided to use a Buick V-8 instead of the Pontiac. A special GTO package was available in '74 that gave it a shaker hood and special trim. It wasn't until 1972 that the Ventura came with a Pontiac 350 for the base V-8 model. The first Venturas came in a variety of Chevy six- and eight-cylinder engines. The '70s name Ventura II was given to distinguish between the two. In the '60s, the Ventura was a fullsize car as a fluffed-up version of the Catalina. Pontiac's entry to the GM X-body line was the Ventura II in 1971. They are light, easy to work on, and have more aftermarket support than all of the cars on this list by far. These third-generation Mustangs are being transformed into road racers, drag racers, and street cruisers. These turbo cars could easily be modified to make well more than that.) The 1987 production year brought styling and engine changes improved fuel delivery and air metering meant more power. Rather than a V-8, it came with a turbocharged four-cylinder, making nearly as much power as the V-8 in a lighter package. Letters from Mustang fans ultimately ended this idea, keeping the Mustang's traditional rear-wheel-drive with a V-8 option alive. For the 1990 model year, Ford was redesigning the Mustang based on Mazda's front-wheel-drive MX-6. These Mustangs were wildly popular since the day they came out and have quite a following. Look no further than contributor Stephen Kim, and his Project Fox. This one may seem too obvious to be on this list, but it's such a prime example of what you can do on a low budget. Obviously, our space is limited, and we couldn't represent every possibility here, but we hope we've given you some food for thought and some useful information for when you're shopping for your next project car! In either case, you'll have something that will stand out from the crowd of '69 Camaros. Either way you look at it, you can spend less or work less. You can get a car in decent condition for less money than the prime-year cars, or you can get a car in much better condition for the same price. (Please note that all our ratings are on a 1-to-5 scale.) Some are off-year models that come with a lesser price tag, and some are more plebian platform mates of more expensive models. We're offering a list of 20 cars that are both affordable, and inspirational. There is a lot to consider just like with any big purchase, so doing your research is of great importance. Conversely, the less you put into it initially, the more cash and sweat equity you'll need for upgrades. The better the car you start with, the less you'll need to put into it. The initial project car purchase is the most important part of your hot rod, and a large part of how much you'll enjoy the car when it's done. ![]() The individual track controls are on the far left, followed by the main arrangement window, and then the software instruments and sound loops on the far right. You have to invest some time and effort in learning all the ins and outs of the software. The interface is similar but not as user-friendly compared to Logic Pro. The interface allows for handling large arrangement projects with coloring and using icons to differentiate between them.Ĭubase, on the other hand, has a steep learning curve. The mixer section is located at the bottom with editor functions and the main control bar on top. This includes presets and software instruments on the far left followed by the main arrangement window. The software is easy to use compared to Cubase because everything is arranged properly. Logic Pro’s interface is very user-friendly and easy for a beginner. Logic Pro, on the other hand, is more well known among songwriters and musicians. Although you can do all kinds of music production on both Logic Pro and Cubase, music composers and directors like Hans Zimmer preferably use Cubase because of its excellent scoring and notation capabilities.Logic Pro, on the other hand, offers software support like GarageBand compatibility and Logic Remote apps for iPhone and iPad. They include audio interfaces like UR and AR series as well as Cubase controller CC121. Hardware resources for Cubase are much more diverse.This feature can be used to collaborate with other artists in real-time. Cubase offers a separate VST plugin called VST transit and VST connect 5 (not included in Cubase Element).The Artist option is mainly for songwriters and bedroom musicians, and the Element option is mainly aimed at beginners. The Pro version is focused on Professional Studio setups. Logic Pro is a one-and-done deal whereas, in Cubase, you choose among three options: Pro, Artist, and Element. There is one version of Logic Pro, whereas there are 3 versions of Cubase with different pricing.Although you get great stock plugins with Cubase, they are not as capable as Logic Pro’s for songwriting and producing. The stock plugins (Instruments, effects MIDI plugins), on the other hand, are excellent in Logic Pro.With Logic Pro, however, you must go in or add a plugin to make changes in the sound according to your taste. The channel strip modules in Cubase offer quick functions of Compression, Limiting, and EQ without even adding any stock or external plugins. Compared to Cubase’s channel strip, Logic Pro has a very basic channel strip.Logic Pro only supports AU format plugins whereas Cubase supports VST2-VST3 and AU formats (AU plugins only ever work on Mac though).Logic Pro is exclusively available on macOS. Cubase is available both on Windows and macOS.Unlimited Audio, MIDI, and Instrument tracksĦ4 MIDI tracks, 48 Audio Tracks, and 24 Instrument tracks External Plugin Compatibility (VST, AU)ġ000 audio tracks, 1000 software instrument tracks, 1000 MIDI tracks. ![]() Note, however, that the profiler shows the kernel run time separate from the migration time, since the migrations happen before the kernel runs. That’s what happens in my program when I run it on K80 or my Macbook Pro. This means there is potentially migration overhead on each kernel launch. Since these older GPUs can’t page fault, all data must be resident on the GPU just in case the kernel accesses it (even if it won’t). On pre-Pascal GPUs, upon launching a kernel, the CUDA runtime must migrate all pages previously migrated to host memory or to another GPU back to the device memory of the device running the kernel 2. Check for errors (all values should be 3.0f) Wait for GPU to finish before accessing on host Int index = blockIdx.x * blockDim.x + threadIdx.x CUDA kernel to add elements of two arrays To understand how, I’ll have to tell you a bit more about Unified Memory.įor reference in what follows, here’s the complete code to add_grid.cu from last time. Don’t be discouraged, though we can fix this. Hmmmm, that’s under 6 GB/s: slower than running on my laptop’s Kepler-based GeForce GPU. Now let’s try running on a really fast Tesla P100 accelerator, based on the Pascal GP100 GPU. First, I’ll reprint the results of running on two NVIDIA Kepler GPUs (one in my laptop and one in a server). The second reason is that it provides a great opportunity to learn more about Unified Memory. First, because Pascal GPUs such as the NVIDIA Titan X and the NVIDIA Tesla P100 are the first GPUs to include the Page Migration Engine, which is hardware support for Unified Memory page faulting and migration. (I was hoping that readers would try it and comment on the results, and some of you did!). ![]() I finished that post with a few simple “exercises”, one of which encouraged you to run on a recent Pascal-based GPU to see what happens. Unified Memory is a single memory address space accessible from any processor in a system. To do this, I introduced you to Unified Memory, which makes it very easy to allocate and access data that can be used by code running on any processor in the system, CPU or GPU. ![]() My previous introductory post, “ An Even Easier Introduction to CUDA C++“, introduced the basics of CUDA programming by showing how to write a simple program that allocated two arrays of numbers in memory accessible to the GPU and then added them together on the GPU. ![]() Mac Resource MonitorīuhoCleaner allows you to view the apps and processes that open automatically upon startup. You may have a list of the large files on your Mac, like these high-def movie videos, large Xcode projects or the long-forgotten compressed file folders whether you choose to remove them is up to you.

One example of this is 6 x 7, which is often said to be tricky. What also often helps is to use the tables you know well for answering the sums in the more difficult tables. Switching the multiplication sum around makes it easier to answer. For example 4 x 9 is easier to work out than 9 x 4. There are a few tricks which make it easier to learn the tables and continue to master them, such as putting the smallest number first, which makes it easier for many children to answer correctly. Not every child finds it easy to learn all the tables, so it is a good idea to keep on practicing them regularly after you learned them. The 6 times table, 7 times table, 8 times table, 9 times table, 11 times table, 12 times table and of course all the tables in random order are the next step. The 1 times table, 2 times table, 3 times table, 4 times table, 5 times table and 10 times table are the first times tables to be learned. ![]() Here you can find additional information about practicing multiplication tables at primary school. The game element in the times tables games make it even more fun learn. Learn the multiplication tables in an interactive way with the free math multiplication learning games for 2rd, 3th, 4th and 5th grade. For the big tables diploma you are given 40 questions which include all the tables from 1 to 12. Your little diploma shows you can do the 1,2,3,4,5 and 10 times tables. The little diploma is made up of 30 questions. On the tables diploma the questions are a bit quicker than on the speed test, but if you get all of them right you will get your tables diploma. The speed test is good practice for getting your tables diploma. This will help you learn all of your tables. If you make a mistake, you came see what the right answer is at the end of the test. Once you have got the hang of a number of tables you can select the speed test and choose the tables you want to practice getting quicker at. If you have forgotten any answers, just go back to the 'all tables in sequence' page and practice them again thoroughly before trying again. First you can practice the multiplication facts in sequence and once you have got the hang of that you can practice all the sums in random order for each table. ![]() Choose the table you want to practice from the following. ![]() To make things easier for you, these 5 popular task management apps are a perfect solution: 1.
