Freedom Scientific<p>Meet the March Freedom Scientific Student of the Month! Toby is a senior in Pennsylvania who started using JAWS and the Focus 40 Braille display when he was 16. Toby enjoys coding. Projects he created include a web-based interface for playing chess and a text chat app. "JAWS and the Focus 40 allow me to code independently, which is something I did not have access to before."

C.<p>A couple of days ago, I watched Jaws (1975) again. It turns 50 this year, and is widely credited as being the first "summer <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/blockbuster" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>blockbuster</span></a>" <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/movie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>movie</span></a>, which (for better or worse) has set the tone for Hollywood studios ever since.</p><p>The movie holds up really well.</p><p>A couple of days before *that*, I went down a rabbit hole of the <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/production" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>production</span></a> costs of the most expensive films ever made. To pick one example near (but not at) the top of the list, there's Avengers: Infinity War (2018). Adjusted for inflation, its production cost is over US$400M.</p><p>Four hundred million US dollars.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Jaws" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Jaws</span></a>, not adjusted for inflation, cost US$9M. Nine million. Its budget was originally set for $4M, but because of shooting on the ocean, which hadn't been done for a major feature, there were unexpected costs, and the mechanical <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/shark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>shark</span></a> effects ended up costing a lot more than planned. Adjusting for <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/inflation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>inflation</span></a> gives a number somewhere in the neighbourhood of US$50M.</p><p>Jaws is a <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/film" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>film</span></a> people remember. It has a good story, relatable and likeable characters, action, suspense, etc, etc.</p><p>The <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Avengers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Avengers</span></a> movie cost eight times as much and ... I barely remember it. It had lots of <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/pixels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pixels</span></a>. It had wooden acting. It was utterly forgettable, even though it was supposed to be the climax of the "<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/MCU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MCU</span></a>". In fifty years, will anyone remember it, or any <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Marvel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Marvel</span></a> film? Doubtful.</p><p>I wish <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Hollywood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Hollywood</span></a> would get back into telling <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/stories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>stories</span></a>, rather than trying to be <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/videogames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>videogames</span></a> you can't play, just watch.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/OldManYellsAtCloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OldManYellsAtCloud</span></a></p>
