The president who ran on the campaign slogan of “no new wars” just started a war. Remember how Afghanistan and Iraq went when the US ran those countries?

My wife got me “Reflections on Cinematography” by Roger Deakins for Xmas. I knew I was going to love reading it, but I had no idea how profound it would be for me personally. #cinematography

Jay Stein, mastermind of the Universal Studios tram tour, dies at 88
Stein saw promise in the Universal Studios tour when others did not, and incorporated jolts and flourishes that became known as 'JayBangs.'

It’s comforting to hear that people are getting less fearful of AI because its current shortcomings are coming to light. But, I fear that people are still underestimating how it will change the way we work. Think PC’s in the 80s vs in the 90s.

The Ethicist | Our housekeeper says there have been ICE sweeps in her neighborhood and asked if she could stay in our spare room for a few nights. But that room has turned into the cats' playroom, and I fear having Lucia there would disturb them. Is it better to fire her or just report her to ICE?

For an admin that wants to create jobs, they sure do like to pressure media companies into cancelling shows that employ hundreds and have huge economic impact on their localities.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Four years ago I started experimenting with AI. A year later, AI exploded with MidJourney and Stable Diffusion. This was an experiment to have a vision model create performance capture for animation.
