@danirabbit the subjective perception of the magnitude of change is a very interesting phenomena.

I look at these photos of you, and the changes seem tremendous—no subtlety at all. When people I’ve known for a long time first see me post-transition: “I wouldn’t have known anything changed if you hadn’t told me.” When I show new friends photos of old me, they can hardly believe it’s the same person.

Familiarity plays a big role, I think. And you look beautiful!

Basic models of flocking behavior are controlled by three simple rules: 1) separation: avoid crowding neighbours (short range repulsion); 2) alignment: steer towards average heading of neighbors; 3) cohesion: steer towards average position of neighbors (long range attraction). With these three simple rules, the flock moves in an extremely realistic way.
