    If you’re doing chest compressions to save someone who has stopped breathing there roughly a 10% chance they will survive but a 0% chance if you don’t So it’s often worth it anyway.

    However it does keep the blood flowing and can prevent brain damage until a defibrillator is available which has a much higher chance of saving someone who has stopped breathing.

    The heart is also protected by the lungs and breast plate.















  • Cinematographer here. It is a very expensive industry but everybody starts somewhere and the technology has improved so much that even no money productions are doable now.

    Shoot on your phone. Shoot outdoors. Use your mates as actors. Writing a script costs nothing but bare in mind everything you write could cost you money to acquire. The clever bit is how to write that without it costing much.

    Above all story and characters are the most important so focus on those rather than expensive gear.

    There’s also some great books out there. The guerilla filmmakers blueprint helped me out a lot when I started out.

  • It was one of the most well polished apps I’ve ever used. It was constantly being improved without changing the core of what it did.

    Think of it as an Apple product. It did loads of clever things in the background, powerful and easy to use while maintaining a slick aesthetic. The content was the style and the UI was satisfyingly plain. It never broke.

    Media player was great and No ads ever.

    Lots of gestures to make it simple and quick to browse Reddit. My favourite was the swipe to the right to hide all the posts I’d seen above.

    I could go on.
