The Life of a Demoniac

If you ever wonder what I fight about with demons the most these days, believe it or not, it's whether I can do and succeed at stuff like this... Today, I wrote code that splits a single iPhone video camera feed among multiple displays, each of which can be processed separately and individually and simultaneously, in real-time, without affecting app performing or significant increases to memory and energy consumption using multicast delegation . It displays video as it is acquired by the camera in multiple windows, but with a filter applied at a different setting in each one. The point of that is to be able to monitor the same scene for different types of demonic activity simultaneously; that would require separate windows, each displaying video processed to reveal and/or enhance visibility of the specific type. In order to process or filter a video feed in your app, you need the image data . Although you can set up multiple preview layers to display the image feed, the vi

Granted, I could have (and should have) picked a better still frame to use in my video demonstration, showing how to find demons in still frames of videos made during a period of high demonic activity; still, this is a bit much: One of several, recent tirades on Facebook, all of which are characterized by a flood of criticism, accusation and a decrying my psychological health for having posted "fake" demon pics The only reason why I didn't spend a lot of time searching for that "perfect" still frame is because I intended to demonstrate how quick and easy it is to find demons with a camera-enabled mobile device; if I spent a lot of time, that wouldn't be very quick, would it? I like to be authentic. Unfortunately, as you can see from the above, not everyone is convinced of that; however, fortunately, that's not a problem for me when it comes to demons and what-not as it might be for any other thing. My constant connection to that whole business a
