the very idea that art requiring a significant amount of deliberate action is a problem to be overcome and not part of what makes it fulfilling-- like artists have just been practicing to so they can produce more work more quickly-- betrays

If you're looking for video for casual personal projects or fill-ins for vlog posts, or something to make your PowerPoint look neat, this seems like a rad tool. It has a looong way to go before it's taking anyone's movie VFX

I’m a technical artist, so wielding tech to make art is my thing. I come from a dev background but just graduated from art school this year. I reckon there are some hurdles to overcome before seeing a lot of non-technical generative AI imag

Masons deliberately don't respond to these sorts of things but few things tick me off quite as much as proud, confidently administered ignorance.

Oh, is that what I said? Or is that what you wish I said because you had a specious response to it pre-cooked? Does your response directly address anything I said? Are you sure you're responding to me and not some conceptual 'ot

Your distinction— understanding the law, broadly, and being able to try a case in court are themselves two extremes on the spectrum of people that understand law. The invective for clickbait obviously exists. None of those facts means that

Freemasonry only has 3 “ranks”. The organizations that have other levels, like the Shriners, York Rite, Scottish Rite (created in France in the 19th century) aren’t organizationally or legally related to any actual Masonic grand lodge — the

For sure. I think part of it is what happens when Dunning-Krueger strikes someone confident and charismatic enough to teach their ill-conceived ideas to others who find the idea appealing enough to take it and run with it. A runaway bullshi

Sure, that makes sense. Additionally, whether something is misleading had as much to do with the person reading it as the person writing it.

I agree that most readers won’t really ‘get it’ by reading the headline, and appreciate your useful addition so we all can get some context without the click, but in defense of the author, I think writing layperson-accessible headlines for

The approach works better with dedicated technical writers. It makes sense to have distinct user-focused goals for documents before they’re written, and then just dig into the necessary parts of the software enough to make that happen as n

I think that's probably ideal as a default approach. In my experience, when it moves beyond that into friendship, it's pretty organic rather than a conscious change in approach.

Some of the most loyal and connected colleagues I've had have been autists. I have a lot in my family so there's probably some amount of "safe person" vibes I give off, but in my experience, many autists realize the valu

The pre-update version of Gemini Advanced-- sold as a miracle worker-- wasted so much of my time in two small coding projects that I'll never touch it again. Constant hallucination, constant flip-flopping between the same three mistake

You’re the one that made the direct government control analogy. I mentioned a number of non-individualistic mechanisms in my previous comment. I’m not going to keep engaging in a fishing expedition of things to argue about — I think it’s pr

Sure, and people that already agree with you will feel good reading it, but other people who don’t agree see it as an attack. It’s pretty much impossible to slip a new idea into someone’s mind if your approach made them slam the door before
