Certainly true, but boredom is also the foundation of creativity so there is some middle ground worth seeking out.

How does that work in practice? Are you just paying them to lease it so you don’t have to?

In theory I agree with your argument, but in practice I find it’s very often the AI and other dominant companies — often tech — that are at the root of the risk averse landscape you observe. To put it simply, major tech companies are among

Stuff like specific terminals and parts can be used for insert shots and close ups (which are often shot by a 2nd Unit crew without the actual stars/main crew). So then you can build a simpler set and just shoot close ups for the fancy

I hear where you’re coming from, but you will note that AHS, while being an anthology, pulls continuously from the same group of audience favorite actors — which goes back to the “people putting on a show” variant I described above. The aud

A book doesn’t, and Foundation makes excellent use of every inch of the novel as a medium to explore itself, but the commenter above was specifically referring to what made the book difficult to adapt into a television series. And while Mal

This assumes such a database is necessary in this first place, which in my mind would require serious justification to prove, given that it creates a situation where the customer’s security is degraded by default.

Truly one of the greatest pieces of art on the internet.

FWIW I don’t want my mind actively polluted by the media and materials derived by people who consider art “content” and all human output “training data” to support their own misguided gambles in the hopes of saving their personal portfoli

There are many paintings of stars and sky. Why is this one the archetype? Is it because they are the best painted stars?

Just to put this out in the universe: I hope it stays 1-time.

Even just an e ink alphasmart would be killer — the key feature for me was the Mac keyboard + shortcuts so I never had to think while using it.

I for one was not bothered — the film up to that point had exclusively portrayed Oppenheimer‘s subjective experience in life. To showcase the footage you’re talking about would have meant showing events Oppenheimer did not see, but was cert

If you’re on Mac/iOS, contact journal may be exactly what you’re looking for — it adds tasks/reminder/attachments/etc to contacts.

As the purpose of communication is to communicate, language ends up being descriptive rather than prescriptive — as frustrating as that can be to the more precise among us (believe me I feel your pain). Or to put it in tech terms: language

I absolutely agree — my statement was merely one of fact; to get to point B, one must first achieve point A. Much like inventing the wheel (positive) is a necessary precursor to both ambulances/fire fighting (also positive), as well as

If you haven’t seen it, Patriot is fabulous and clearly has little to no interest in portraying anything close to objective reality, but instead conveys a subjective experience with just enough jargon and cartoon-intuitively-correct techniq

As someone who lives more on the artistic side than the technical, but appreciates both, that’s honestly reassuring to hear. And for what it’s worth: I think 24fps is partially why people of frankly similar talent and beauty look untouchabl

The obvious response being that counting cars on the highway is a necessary first step on the road to identifying and then tracking their movements. Similar to how insurance companies have offered voluntary, “anonymized” data dongles for di

FWIW, I truly hope 24fps never goes away entirely. Something about it is the key to making movie stars look like legends and regular people look like a stars, imo.

Not out of the box I believe, but I use a package from their directory to do just that.

Exactly my experience with both Kagi and NotePlan — Obsidian is great and free, but NotePlan looks gorgeous, has native apps, and works exactly like my brain expects right outta the box. Huge fan.

The lead prosecutor at Nuremberg described evil as “lack of empathy” which I think is just about the best possible definition available to human beings.

FWIW AnyBox also will save SingleFile archives and make them searchable to spotlight. Big fan.

They are trying to wriggle out of providing insight into how that voice was derived at all (like Google with the 100% of damages check). It would really suck for OpenAI if, for example, Altman had at some point emailed his team to ensure th

I actually believe that’s quite plausible. The trouble is, by requesting permission in the first place, they demonstrated intent, which is legally significant. I think a lot of your confusion is attempting to employ pure logic to a legal is

You seem to be misunderstanding the legalities at work here: reaching out to her multiple times beforehand, along with tweets intended to underline the similarity to her work on Her, demonstrates intention. If they didn’t think they needed
