Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Six months ago, I made a mental note to fix a loophole in Caonima’s free trial. Then I completely forgot about it. Sure enough, a few clever users ended up with an *extended* trial. Almost every single one of them signed up for a paid plan after the loophole was closed. Trust and product habit. 100

Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Every once in a while, I check how far I can push a Clojure setup on the phone.

Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 28/05/2025Nice writeup. Best of luck channeling the energy boost. 110
Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 28/04/2025A photograph is meant to be experienced rather than interpreted. Susan Sontag makes that arguments in a book called "Against Interpretation". I agree, but interpretation has its purpose, too. In some contexts, it is unavoidable. As long as you let someone else do the talking. ai.tuppu.net 010
Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 25/04/2025Watch him elaborate. www.youtube.com/watch?v=id39... PS: René the AI shares the same outlook as Sean Tucker as to what constitutes progress in one's art. ai.tuppu.netyoutube.comIs your Photography any Good?YouTube video by Sean Tucker 010
Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 25/04/2025Sean Tucker's new video Is your Photography any Good? is an excellent take on self-assessment, something that many aspiring photographers struggle with. His answer is structured by three words: intentionality, consistency and originality. 100
Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 19/04/2025The illustration above was generated by Google's Imagen with the following prompt: Susan Sontag wrote in an essay on photography that the act of taking a photograph is sublimated murder. Please illustrate. 000
Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 19/04/2025On photography is a collection of essays carrying the voice of Susan Sontag, a nervous and hard-hitting voice, and the ideas are incredible. And by incredible I mean pertinent, thought provoking, long lasting, articulate, concise and frankly... beautiful. 100
Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 19/04/2025Because it is a seminal text, a lot of people get their hands on it without realizing what it is for. By the time they get to the line that equates the act of photography as sublimated murder, they recoil in horror. 100
Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 19/04/2025Photographers who approach Susan Sontag's On photography with the idea that it will teach them the art of photography are bound to be disappointed. Susan Sontag's On photography is not about photography at all, but rather about society and the ramifications of mechanical reproduction. 120
Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 14/04/2025The specifics of the spring festival rituals in rural China may vary from village to village, and they are rarely documented. No wonder, thus, that LLMs cannot pinpoint their nature. Nevertheless, the critique offered by René picks up on the intrinsic qualities of the image. ai.tuppu.net 010
Daniel Szmulewicz @danielsz.bsky.social · 11/04/2025There are no easy answers to come by in art. Extending a critique is as delicate a matter as receiving it. A critique is one possible interpretation of a work. It is never true or false. What matters is what one does with it, that is to say, how one listens to it. ai.tuppu.net #photography #china 010
