Are you able to share what these parallels are that you've drawn? I've always thought them to be slightly different processes.

Completely agree. And it is funny how we put so much emphasis on developing our skills and abilities, when really our actual value is always determined by the market. I'm personally at peace with that, and would have a pretty hard tim

I despair a little at this. If I can do my job at home, then surely somebody can do it in the global south in tandem with AI for peanuts. Client-facing stuff gets centralised to a smaller team of specialists, and the ship gets much tighter

The answer is that it depends on the director. For David Fincher or the Coen brothers, having this level of exactitude and precision is what their craft is all about. But for plenty of other masters - think Cassavetes, Mike Leigh, even PTA

Well I'd say it encourages poor nutrition by allowing people to continue to eat terrible food, while briefly suppressing their appetite for it by slowing down gastric emptying. While this isn't every case, people's nutrition

Sorry to hear that. Look, I see what you're saying. But a punitive mentality is never going to lead anywhere. At least not for very long. My personal experience has been shifting my goal from "weight loss" to the much more

The article steps around the fact that Ozempic encourages poor nutrition and entrenches body dysmorphia. Working out and eating responsibly not only creates far more longevity, but it mentally empowers you to be the custodian of your own we

Cormac McCarthy? Georgia O'Keeffe? Robert Johnson? Plenty of artists excel beyond the urban fringe.

Pay a copywriter. Language like "boost up" instead of just "boost" risks making the product feel very amateur on first impression.

I've always loved your takes on AI. You should air them here a bit more.

The problem is getting so out of it that you can't reach the wet/dry knob to dial back the wacko.

No. It's Zerohedge, which is polemicist trash. I'm surprised to see this here.

The copy is atrocious.

Snark is also fun and is often a welcome reprieve from serious argument.

Interesting. Why do they want you to do it the old way? Or could you explain more? I've never worked somewhere like this, so curious as to why this would happen?

Haven't read this yet, but I did just read (and would certainly recommend) 'Building the Second Mind - 1956 and the Origins of Artificial Intelligence Computing'[1] by Rebecca Skinner of UC Berkeley. [1] https://es

Pitchfork died because it developed a problem with music itself. Prior to 2014, the site thrived because it took music at face value, and ranked new releases based upon what artists were contributing to the overall canon of progressive inde

Aren't you kind of presuming these people would not have injuries if they had chosen the non-academic vocation they're most likely qualified for? Any sustained outdoor work like landscaping, roofing, and plumbing is brutal on the

Heartbreaking that you went through all that. I don't mean to trivialize your situation, but I recently learned about nociception [1] and your condition reminded me of what sucks about it. Ie, the emotional trauma you now live with is

While there is a large public appetite for breaking up monopolies, it really does seem that antitrust policy has sadly become something of a bygone era. A decent authority on the subject is Matt Stoller's book Goliath [1], which lays o

I modded a vintage Leica Summicron about 10 years ago using some metal a colleague machined to try the effect mentioned in the article. Did it have anamorphic bokeh? Sure. But it never gave me the feel of anamorphic, as the look is all i

I'll check this out, thank you. No, this person just has a poor diet and patterns, depression, and severe learned helplessness (my diagnoses).

Sorry you lost this person. Super awful and I'm very sorry you are internalizing blame. In terms of a plan for my buddy... God I just don't have a clue. My friend is losing his wife/kids and likely moving back in with his fo
