The most powerful humans, and human systems, often score very low on stewardship and empathy. While "cancer" triggers as opinionated, using a less-charged analogy I think should probably make a similar point.

We saw a trickle of decent new young-to-middle-aged talent that was prompted in part by heavy marketing of VO training 20 years ago—many weren't sure what it was. But the animation and video game and social media meme generation knew f

Fable is the first one I found could bring brainstorming concepts closer to what I was striving for instead of adding in clutter and defocusing.

The bigger factor for quite some time has been the 10x of low-end competition since just pre-pandemic. Hard to find a decent human, hard for a human to start out and rise above the sludge. There has been a similar 10x of desire for VO, sinc

Simple and easy are often conflated a bit, but measured by outcomes, are quite different. Comments offerring humorous parallels of common simple and easy conflations will follow.

Carfentanyl potentcy is roughly 10,000 times morphine. The pursuit of optimized technology usually far outpaces regulation or any kind of control. As technologies are controlled, even the lessened availability of more potent types causes an

Of course, over time, I use custom entries. My snippet expansion entry in Wispr is "Chess Knight" = "Knight" ("Knight to f3" without customization was more reliable than "Chess Knight") I also use &qu

You seem to be referencing as core business value a combination of (1) the ability to maintain a (2) business criitical resource, but stating it as if catastrophizing from a hasty generalization. Can you clarify? It's really not that s

Causes create effects and eventually exist in a field of those effects. Kramnik was rapidly informed of statistical issues with his approaches in easy-to-understand ways (and also in technical detail). His "convincing for a layman&quot

I totally understand the downvote, as bad player adds bad tech must = bad. I'm just pointing out that the terrible search interface / results / algorithm / intention of Amazon is, for now, a bit alleviated by their AI in

AI chat interface works where search does not. Not perfect, but much better, and allows more specific, accurate filtering.

As a technical writer (off and on, for the U.N. at one point) since the late 1980's, I've learned that much good technical writing must start with some form of "It’s surprisingly simple, actually," or you're choosin

This happened about four years ago, and was worse than I am conveying in its additional details. I can't imagine this being encouraged, and I can imagine it being trained against, but the personality type/worldview seems too commo

Clueness sometimes goes hand-in-hand with perceived freedom. I think it's that cause and effect are not as often connected (consequences). I remember a Google employee updating a Google font that broke thousands of websites. Community
