I agree. Zimmer is a competent composer and even an old school analogue synthesizer guy, but he doesn’t have the sentimentality of Vangelis (RIP).

Wait, why would Roy know Deckard’s identity as a replicant?

That too is the kind of inference that allows these claims to proliferate.

Alongside “paid like a plumber” and “already this fucked”, I would like to see added the following wisdom: I think of music as something that I'm willing to work 40 hours a week or more to support, like a wife and family, right? Music

Maybe 75 years ago, in the golden age of SF, you could have found a publisher willing to pair you with an editor to help you get your story out. Video killed the print star.

Don’t overthink it, just talk about something you like about the language. The interviewer wants to hear relevant words that demonstrate you’ve actually worked in the space (and not just did a tutorial or read a blog post.)

Oh well if the CEO says so Edit: To be clear, you have read what’s not being said: no agency is funding this or taking delivery of anything. With internal R&D you can make any outlandish claims and no one can call you out on it. (Under

DARPA has been working this problem for decades. I’m fairly skeptical anything will come of “AI-enabled EW” on the battlefield. The fundamental problems are still of physics and hardware engineering - can I sense and retune my transmitter q

You think the Union boss can’t get your kid a job if it greases the wheels for something greater? This is the first time I’ve seen someone accuse unions of not being corrupt enough.

I want to know why Google hasn’t corrected their map overlays. The shift in the roads makes it frustrating to look at.

Growing up in WV, were you friends with a lot of Evangelical types? Fully 25% of the state is Baptist or Pentecostal, whereas OH is closer to 10%.
