    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.

    What’s the rush? Rome wasn’t built in a day. If people are happy (enough) with it now it will grow with time and at the pace it should.

    If things get too big too quickly then the cake will always collapse.

    I like the amount of content here right now and things will diversify gradually over time.

    Most people seem to forget their Reddit accounts were more than 8,9,10+ years old and a lot changed over that period.








  • 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.
