"CODA," released by Apple TV+ after a bidding war at last year's Sundance independent film festival where it fetched a record $25 million, also won best supporting actor for Troy Kotsur. The win at the SAG awards, voted for by Hollywood's acting union, is an important precursor for the Academy Awards, whose largest voting bloc is also actors. "This validates the fact that we deaf actors can work just like anybody else," added Matlin, before teaching the star-studded audience the sign for "I love you." "We deaf actors have come a long way," signed a visibly shocked Marlee Matlin, a deaf former Oscar winner who plays Ruby's mother, as she and her co-stars accepted the statuette for best cast in a motion picture. Taking its title from an acronym for child of deaf adult, "CODA" follows high school teen Ruby as she juggles her musical ambitions with her family's dependence on her to communicate with the "hearing" world. LOS ANGELES: "CODA," a heartfelt indie drama about a struggling deaf family, won the top prize at the Screen Actors Guild awards Sunday, boosting its hopes as a potential dark horse for next month's Oscars. I just urge you to adapt and grow if you are serious about staying competitive in this industry is all.The cast of "CODA" - (L-R) Eugenio Derbez, Marlee Matlin, Daniel Durant, Troy Kotsur and Emilia Jones - won the SAG award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture. If you aren't looking for a job and just want to keep freelancing or whatever you may be doing now though, then have fun doing that. Would I hire someone that refuses to move from FTP to Git & version control? Absolutely not. It's all dependent on who you want to be and how you want to be seen. We are a premium service because we have a premium product and workflow. Are these things overkill for a client that needs a $1,000 website for their hobby? maybe, but that's not my company's target market. These are the things that larger firms are doing and it's good to get in the habit even if you aren't a large firm.
If all goes well, I then move and merge the code to the production server branch. Now when making large changes or things that affect the back-end, I will make the changes on the localhost then push them to the development server branch and test it there. I work with a local server, development server (that's hosted on heroku), and then a production server (that's hosted on heroku). sFTP isn't as secure and more importantly, you could accidentally save a line of code that then goes directly to the production server and screws something up. It's evolving on a daily basis and just ask around, FTP is an old dinosaur in today's terms. Fighting something like this tooth and nail just because you're comfortable with what you're currently using is not a good thing in this industry. It just helps you organize your code better and have backups upon backups upon backups. Until I FINALLY forced myself to try out and learn Git. I can just tell you right now that I was in the same boat two years ago.
