Recalling the enclosed moorland farmsteads of the West Country, this single-storey courtyard house for a farm manager establishes a considered relationship with its surrounding rural landscape.Across the field from the house stands a recently constructed livestock shed, housing the cattle herd associated with the farm managers livelihood. Although, by necessity, the house is close to the neighbouring barn, its domesticity does not intrude into the agricultural setting. Instead, the house nestles into a wooded corner of the field, only a mile from the Atlantic coast. The building is protected from the elements through an introverted courtyard house typology, the two arms of its L-shape plan sheltering a south-facing garden.The protective wings of the house are formed by thick masonry walls, the depth of these a result of the specific construction system employed: monolithic clay blocks used without a cavity or insulation layer. At once load-bearing and insulating, the walls are simply finished with textured lime render to the exterior and lime plaster on the inside. This monolithic base supports a singular, unifying timber roof, legible throughout the interior, and redolent of surrounding older barn structures.Hugh Strange, director, Hugh Strange ArchitectsAdvertisementProject dataStart on site October 2020Completion Gross internal floor area 2Construction cost 400,000Construction cost per m2 2,285Architect Hugh Strange ArchitectsClient PrivateStructural engineer Price & MyersM&E consultant Ritchie + DaffinPrincipal designer Hugh Strange ArchitectsApproved building inspector Cornwall CouncilMain contractor GTL ConstructionTimber frame Timber WorkshopCAD software used VectorworksPredicted design life 100+ yearsEmbodied carbon (structure) 222 kgCO2e/m2Engineers choicesThe house is a modest, simple structure which attempts to reference the familiar clarity of rural building forms. At the same time, it uses modern materials and a level of quality in the resolution of the detailing, in the timber fabrication and in the material choices that elevates it to something special. Basic foundations and ground floor slab support thick terracotta Porotherm block walls to the perimeter. These are the only load-bearing walls and allow full flexibility of the internal layout.The roof is a system of tied rafters where a repetitive element is tied to form an A-frame every fourth rafter. The spread of the typical rafters between the ties is resisted by a flat wall plate timber, sized to span horizontally between the tied rafter feet but also to be large enough to span vertically as the window lintel. Taking this simple roof form around the corner of the 90-degree roof junction, with all the members and details exposed to view, required some careful detailing.Andy Toohey, partner, Price & MyersSpecificationThe preference for UK structural timber in the sizes required led quickly to the decision to use Douglas Fir a strong, durable and versatile timber, available in long lengths and large sections. We made an effort to find a sawmill willing to seek out slower-grown, older trees to ensure higher-quality stock evident in tighter growth rings and a lower knot content. Logs were sourced from both west Scotland and Norfolk.The frame was entirely prefabricated in our Devon workshop, then shipped, and installed on site. While predominately a process of manufacturing components in isolation, the principal truss that forms the corner of the building was framed up in its entirety in the workshop to overcome the more complex roof geometry in this location.AdvertisementThe timber was planed all round, and sanded clean after carpentry, but left unfinished. Canadian Douglas fir plywood doubles as structural sheathing and internal ceiling. Hot-dip galvanised bolts were left visible and unplugged but set into shallow counterbores to ensure some finesse when using these more agricultural-graded fixings. Similarly, galvanised brackets that connect the roof to the Porotherm blockwork appear above the wall plaster as a small reminder of how the house was put together.Alex Thomas, director, Timber WorkshopSelected productsGalvanised steel profiled roofingCladcoCladco Profiles (13/3)Roofcladco.co.ukClay blocksWienerbergerPorotherm, T8 425External Wallswienerberger.co.ukLime render/plasterHeritage Cob & LimeBespokeExternal renderheritagecobandlime.comFloor tilesLiving TerracottaBL012Flooring throughoutlivingterracotta.com

Sony announces donation to Los Angeles wildfire relief"The home of our entertainment business for more than 35 years."Image credit: Sony News by Tom Phillips Editor-in-Chief Published on Jan. 14, 2025 PlayStation maker Sony is among the companies that have announced donations to help with relief and rebuilding efforts in the wake of Los Angeles' devastating wildfires. A week on, several areas of the city are still burning - and there's now fresh fear of further destruction as forecasters expect "close to hurricane force" winds to spread the fires once again over the coming days (via BBC News). At least 24 people are known to have died, 23 more are missing, and 12,401 structures have been lost.As firefighters continue to tackle the blazes, Sony has announced a $5m donation to support first responders and the community affected by the fires."Los Angeles has been the home of our entertainment businesses for more than 35 years," Sony chairman and CEO Kenichiro Yoshida and Sony president and COO Hiroki Totoki said in a joint statement shared on social media. "We will continue work with our local business leadership to determine how best Sony group can support relief and recovery efforts in the days ahead."Other entertainment companies have also announced donations, including $10m donations each from Amazon, Netflix and NBCUniversal owner Comcast, plus $15m from Warner Bros Discovery. Paramount is chipping in $1m, while Beyonc has said she's donating $2.5m.Away from the disaster's human cost, the early impact of the fires was also seen in a spate of delays to Los Angeles' film and TV industries, including a pause in production of Fallout season two.

QuadrilateralWant to know why The Flash failed? According to its director, it's because it failed to appeal to the, uh, "four quadrants"Only four?Image credit: DC News by Oisin Kuhnke Contributor Published on Jan. 14, 2025 We all know The Flash wasn't a good movie, but according to its director it didn't do well because "it wasnt a movie that appealed to all four quadrants."It's pretty clear from looking at the original DCU that it was all a panic response to everything Marvel was doing with its cinematic universe. Like, who wanted a Black Adam film? You don't just make things for the sake of having a connected world, and you especially don't listen to The Rock when it comes to making business decisions (we all remember that Henry Caville Superman cameo). The Flash too clearly just existed to build that universe out more than having a good film for Warner Bros, and despite the cost it really should have been written off considering all of Ezra Miller's controversies. But if you ask director Andy Muschietti, the reason it flopped is because it didn't have enough broad appeal.To see this content please enable targeting cookies. "The Flash failed, among all the other reasons, because it wasnt a movie that appealed to all four quadrants. It failed at that," Muschietti said in an interview with Radio Tu where he also spoke about his upcoming Batman movie and Shadow of the Colossus adaptation (thanks, Variety). "When you spend $200 million making a movie, [Warner Bros.] wants to bring even your grandmother to the theaters." The director went on to explain that he found "in private conversations that a lot of people just dont care about the Flash as a character. Particularly the two female quadrants. All of that is just the wind going against the film Ive learned."For some context, that four quadrant thing he's going on about is the very reductive breakdown of demographics into men over and under 25, and women over and under 25. Personally, I'm not confident that even if you did take your grandmother that it would have helped out - the DCU was clearly on its deathbed at that point, so why go see a film that ultimately won't lead anywhere?Either way, Muschietti's fine because he still gets to make movies, who cares why it did bad! That baby rescue scene is a bit ridiculous though.

Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube792kNobody expected Nippon Ichi Software to announce a sequel to the 2004 PS2 strategy RPG 'Phantom Brave', but over 20 years later, the company did just that. Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero sets sail on Switch on 30th January, and for those who want to see what it's all about before release, NIS America has announced that a free demo will be available from 17th January (that's this Friday).In its reveal tweet, the company noted that all save data from the demo carries over to the full version, so you can give the trial your all and not worry about having to do it all again. Ahh, bliss.Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube792kWatch on YouTube But what's this one all about? The Lost Hero is a sea-faring RPG where you play as Marona, a young girl with the power to contact those beyond the grave OooOOooO. A fleet of ghastly ghost ships is on the prowl, and it's up to you and your spectral pals (and some alive ones you pick up along the way) to stop it.How you do this is through a series of strategic turn-based battles, where you can bind your phantoms to inanimate objects on the playing field and combine them with gadgets to take down foes talk about environmental hazards. It's a strange take on the genre's usual Fire Emblem-style sword-focused affair, but hey, at least it looks cute.Images: NIS AmericaPhantom Brave: The Lost Hero's free demo will arrive on the Switch eShop this Friday before its full release lands later this month.

Toward the end of 2023, an Israeli security researcher from Tel Aviv said that he was approached on LinkedIn with an opportunity to work abroad with good pay. He said that the companys HR department told him that it was a legitimate offensive security company that was starting from scratch in Barcelona, Spain.But during the whole recruiting process, the researcher recounted to TechCrunch, things felt a bit off.The whole secrecy was very weird. Some employees that interviewed me didnt use their full names, they took super long to reveal where the company even is, let alone its name. Why is it such a secret if everythings legit? the researcher told TechCrunch. It seems like a company that might get sanctioned in the future, and things might get dirty.When he spoke to the companys chief technology officer, the researcher said that he was told something along the lines of, we will only have legit customers and unlike other companies wont sell to shady nations.Alexey Levin, the hiring CTO and a former researcher at the sanctioned spyware maker NSO Group, told the researcher that the company trying to hire him was called Palm Beach Networks, and that it develops everything from the zero-day exploits used for compromising devices to the spyware implant itself, referring to the surveillance software that gets installed on a targets device, according to the researcher.The researcher said that Levin also told him that Palm Beach Networks had at least one U.S. government customer. (Levin did not respond to a request for comment.)But why found a spyware startup in Barcelona, which just years earlier was at the center of a wide-reaching political scandal where Spanish government officials used spyware to target local politicians who pushed for independence? Just like many other startups in the city; the researcher said that company employees told him that it was because living in the city is similar to living in Israel, that there are good tax benefits, and good weather.Those are some of the reasons why in the last couple of years, Barcelona has become an unlikely hub for spyware companies, according to multiple people who work in the offensive cybersecurity industry who spoke with TechCrunch, as well as business records we have seen.Having Barcelona become a crucial regional outpost for offensive cybersecurity companies puts the spyware problem squarely on the doorstep of Europe, which has a fractious relationship with surveillance tech, due to scandals in Cyprus, Greece, Hungary, and Poland all involving Israeli spyware makers.It is a concerning development if a major city in Europe becomes a hub for spyware makers, Natalia Krapiva, the legal counsel at nonprofit Access Now, which specializes in investigating and researching spyware, told TechCrunch. Krapiva said that the spyware business goes hand in hand with corruption and abuse of power.Spanish citizens, media, and policymakers should be carefully scrutinizing these businesses in terms of whether their operations are consistent with national and EU laws and whether the Spanish government may be involved in abusing their surveillance tools, especially given Spains history with Pegasus, said Krapiva.John Scott-Railton, a senior researcher at the Citizen Lab, where he and his colleagues have for more than a decade investigated abuses carried out with spyware tools, also expressed concern. Scott-Railton noted that in the past there have been cases of spyware abuse not only against human rights activists and dissidents in non-democratic countries like Ethiopia and Saudi Arabia, but also against U.S. diplomats and targeted individuals, including politicians and citizens within Europes borders.This will add fuel to the fire of Europes spyware crisis. If experience is a guide, its only a matter of time before this tech winds up used by customers against Spains allies and EU partners, Scott-Railton told TechCrunch. Governments that allow this industry to flourish take a gamble with their own secret capabilities and human capital. These capabilities tend to drain outwards, including to potential future adversaries, once mercenary spyware and exploit developers come to town and start hiring.View of the Sagrada Familia in the evening light in Barcelona, Spain, on October 19, 2024. (Photo by Joan Valls/Urbanandsport/NurPhoto/GETTY IMAGES)Sun, seafood, and spywareApart from Palm Beach Networks, as it was known at the time, Barcelona is home to several other exploit and spyware makers that too are making the most of the citys sunny, temperate weather, fresh seafood, and vibrant expat community.Among them are Paradigm Shift, a spin off of the embattled startup Variston, which lost staff and was struggling to survive in 2024; and Epsilon, which is led by Jeremy Fetiveau, an industry veteran who used to work for a division within U.S. defense giant L3Harris that was created after the company acquired the Australian startup Azimuth. Fetiveau did not return a request for comment.The city is said to be also home to an unnamed group of Israeli researchers who moved to Barcelona from Singapore to work on developing zero-day exploits. The existence of this unnamed team as well as Epsilons presence in Barcelona was first reported by Israeli newspaper Haaretz, whose article sparked coverage in local newspapers and news websites.Other cybersecurity companies have a presence in Barcelona, even if they are not headquartered there. Andrijana ekularac, the chief executive of Austrian cybersecurity company SAFA lives in the city, according to her public LinkedIn profile. SAFA has sponsored offensive cybersecurity conferences, including OffensiveCon and Hexacon, and employs at least two security researchers with past experience at spyware companies, according to their public LinkedIn profiles. ekularac also did not respond to a request for comment.These zero-day and spyware companies are part of a broader cybersecurity and startup ecosystem in Barcelona. As of last year, according to the Catalan regional government, there were more than 10,000 people working for more than 500 cybersecurity companies in Barcelona, or around 50% more workers than five years earlier.Contact UsDo you have more information about Epsilon, Head and Tail, Paradigm Shift, or other government spyware makers? From a non-work device, you can contact Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai securely on Signal at +1 917 257 1382, or via Telegram and Keybase @lorenzofb, or email. You also can contact TechCrunch via SecureDrop.Barcelona isnt just a hotbed for surveillance tech makers, but startups in general, with some ranking the city among the top startup hubs in Europe. The city is the founding home for food delivery startup Glovo, which competitor DeliveryHero valued at 2.3 billion in 2021 when it acquired a majority stake in the Catalan company; orthodontics startup Impress, which raised $125 million in 2022 and $114 million in 2024; and business travel management platform TravelPerk, which raised $105 million in 2024; among more than 2,200 other startups, according to the Barcelona and Catalonia Startup Hub, a local government project that tracks the startup ecosystem in the region.The city is attractive to workers because its cost of living is cheaper than other European startup hubs like London, Amsterdam, and Berlin. Then, theres the perhaps more obvious reasons, at least for anyone whos been to Barcelona: The city has nice beaches, similar to Tel Aviv, Cyprus, and Greece, places that are or were home to spyware companies like NSO Group, Circles, and Intellexa.There are also other reasons, apart from the citys attractiveness, that have brought Israeli security researchers in particular to Barcelona. As Haaretz reported at the end of December 2024, Israel has become more restrictive in granting licenses to export spyware to other countries in the wake of the scandals involving NSO Group, leaving the door open for companies to move abroad. It is now more difficult for companies to export spyware from Israel to the rest of the world, including the European Union, than from within the bloc itself.One person told Haaretz that this process is not emigration to Spain, its expulsion to Spain.While Paradigm Shift is openly advertising itself as an offensive cybersecurity company, with job listings for roles that fit this type of business, other companies arent as transparent, just like Variston used to be. Paradigm Shift is headed by Leone Pontorieri, according to the companys business records, as well as Filippo Roncari and Simone Ferrini, according to their public LinkedIn profiles. The three were part of an Italian startup that was acquired by Variston in 2018, when the company launched in Barcelona, and one of the first spyware companies to set up its operations in the Catalan city.Representatives for Paradigm Shift did not respond to a request for comment.A stealthy startup with many namesPalm Beach Networks has so far avoided any public claims of involvement in human rights abuses, unlike spyware makers NSO Group, and before it Hacking Team and FinFisher, have in the past. But the company does have an intriguing history of changing names, a strategy that other spyware vendors have previously used to mask their corporate ownership. Israeli spyware makers Candiru rebranded several times before the company was added to the U.S. governments trade ban list in 2021, and NSO itself had a complex corporate structure.The name Palm Beach Networks was a bit secretive and only said by Levin and others at later stages, according to the Israeli researcher.As it turns out, Palm Beach Networks may already be an obsolete name, and the second iteration of a startup with a different identity.A company called Defense Prime Inc. became Palm Beach Networks on May 11, 2023. On June 16, 2023 a company called Head and Tail started operations in Barcelona. Then on June 28, 2024, Palm Beach Networks was dissolved, according to business records filed in Florida and Spain.Defense Prime and Palm Beach Networks appear to be linked to Head and Tail due to overlapping executives and key figures.A person named Sai Gopal is listed as Head and Tails authorized signatory in Spanish business records, and someone with the same name was listed as the treasurer of Defense Prime in Florida business records. Gopal could not be reached for comment.Business records also show Alexey Levin, the CTO who tried to hire the Israeli security researcher for Palm Beach Networks, is the director of Head and Tail. Representatives from Head and Tail did not return TechCrunchs request for comment.A current executive at a spyware maker, who asked to remain anonymous, told TechCrunch that Levin works at Palm Beach Networks. Previously, the executive said, Levin was an early developer at NSO Group, and then also worked at Candiru.On its official website, Head and Tail makes no explicit mention of the fact that it develops surveillance technology, but instead says it addresses a myriad of cybersecurity issues, including threat intelligence, vulnerability assessments, security awareness training, and incident response. The company has job listings for Barcelona, Madrid, and Sevilla.In the end, the Israeli researcher turned down the chance to work at Palm Beach Networks, even though people he knows told him the company pays some of its employees eye-watering salaries that vastly exceed the countrys gross annual average.The researcher said he was worried he may end up like some NSO Groups employees, who have had to deal with the fallout from human rights scandals, Facebook blocking and deleting their personal accounts, and the U.S. government threatening to deny their visas.I could get good enough money elsewhere and not have to worry about what will happen or who Im working for, said the researcher, especially when I felt they arent a transparent company and I wouldnt know who the customers are.

Hey!I want to share a technique that I use when making muzzle flashes.Its pretty useful for adding some extra variety to muzzle flashes and getting more out of your flipbooks.The basic idea is that you dont really run through the entire flipbook on one particle but instead you use random segments of that flipbook to decrease the chances that any two particles in sequence will look too similar.In Unitys Shuriken it could look something like this if you use a custom shader:You would specify the range of the curve (How many frames will play during the particles lifetime) and then you would set a random start frame which will control where on the flipbook the curve starts.The start frame would work like this:See how its animating over 4 frames but the starting frame is being controlled by you. You can either set a Random between two constants to offset this starting frame or use random between two curves.If youre using VFX Graph you can set it up like this:In both cases you need to make sure you dont exceed the maximum number of frames otherwise itll looks super weird when it starts at 0 again.Happy blasting!

On land he acquired from family, Dwight Wellington Pierce (1816-1901) erected this large, temple-front Greek Revival estate just outside Cornwall Village in Litchfield County, Connecticut. Mr. Pierce farmed this land and built barns across the street from his residence on Popple Swamp Road, where he kept his livestock. The Pierce house is unique in Cornwall as a temple-front Greek Revival style house and features a two-story portico with four Doric columns, the center two are rounded and fluted with the ends square. The elongated house is seven bays wide and must have been quite the sight when it was built in the mid-19th century.
