Discovered by Eliza Callahan triggered by a poem in the middle of her novel. (Friend of a coworker)
That poem can be found here: https://durationandthebodyelizacallahan.cargo.site/ https://durationandthebodyelizacallahan.cargo.site/ - if viewing on mobile you have to Request Desktop Site for some reason, at least on Android it initially shows up as a Lorem Ipsum page
- raldi 4y agoOn iPhone Chrome it doesn’t show up either way.
- pvillano 4y agoit appears to be bugs all the way down
- roughly 4y agoAs arguments for the thesis that the tech world needs to embrace the humanities go, an author discovering a bug in a google product by writing a poem is pretty good, if maybe a bit too on the nose.
- hackernewds 4y agoPerhaps that is the missing link for why tech is so artificial and not humanly. we could use some more art than capitalistic efficiency in the Apple logo
- _rf 4y agoI know you didn't write that poem, but I'm 99% certain the apostrophes in "I thought about my body. It's past. It's present." have no business being there :)
- fluoridation 4y agoSeems like it could go either way.
- burkaman 4y agoMight be intentional, simultaneously talking about the past and present of a body and also literally that it is past. It is present. It would not be weird to have that kind of wordplay in a poem. But also this was from an early draft so it could be a mistake.
