Even the best #earlymodern alchemists forgot sometimes, while working the secrets of their art, where they've put their bloody eyeglasses to see better what exactly they were mixing in front of them ...

A detail from a sixteenth-century alchemy printed, hand-colored, title page shwoing a man in a room working with stones and metals and other alchemic stuff placed on a table. However, the eyeglasses are positioned at the other end of the table. The source is: "Rechter Gebrauch d' Alchimei Mitt vil bißher verborgenen nutzbaren vnnd lustigen Künsten..." (1531), VD16 R 492.

The AI "race" is a race to the bottom. To be profitable, companies will be motivated to agree to the terms of the highest bidder, leading to serious social repercussions. No amount of "safety and transparency policies" should convince us otherwise. 🧵

"Is there technology the left is excited about?" is the kind of question you only ask if you're wildly naive about technology. mRNA vaccines. Heat pumps. Offshore wind. Urban mining. Sodium batteries. But god forbid we're not fawning over every new implementation of Making Computers Bad At Math.

In the last two days I've watched two movies based on books I absolutely adore. The new "Wuthering Heights" made me want to put my eyes out. The rewatch of "Tale of Tales" has reminded me why I love movies and books so much. 11 years after it came out, it's still stunning.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 mini diplomas are ready! 🥖✔️ With extra deco details ^^ #expedition33 #clairobscure

Miniature diploma scrolls.

Perfect gift for a Expedition 33 player.

Video shows example of size.
All scrolls are approximately 4” high and 2” wide (10 x 5 cm)
They are made out of paper with sturdy paper glued on to the back.

Pick between hook or magnet for the back.

The scrolls are glued on a little decorated sticks made out of wood.
These scrolls are perfect as gifts, as you can order ones with personalized text added to them!

All illustrations are designed by me, printed on to recycled paper.
By hand I add the patina and a tiny seal.
Therefore be aware all the scrolls look slightly different from each other and have a unique touch.
The tones of the paper can variari from what you see on the photos.

#SomethingBeautiful the angel eye view of the Duomo as the lights come on

White roof of the octagonal Baptistery, which looks tiny next to the duomo but is actually enormous, and behind it the facade and dome of the duomo, with Giotto's belltower at the side. This view is from the air, so around it you can see streets with the lights just coming on with a warm glow, and far off misty hills.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

Hi there, #BluePit! I'm Susana (Sana), I'm from Poland, and I write mostly fantasy and romance, from time to time some sport fiction, because I love figure skating. During the event I will probably share my queer fantasy-of-manners, originally written in Polish, but I'm considering translating it 😄

Reminder: Plato argued that, since souls reincarnate, souls in men & women are the same & equally capable of all things, so the sexes are equal. P’s mother Perictione was (ancient sources say) a Pythagorean philosopher. 19th C didn’t believe she could be a philosopher so erased her from P’s bio.

Happy Epiphany! It's the time when I traditionally post this manuscript image: There Was Only One Bed

In a green E of an illuminated manuscript the three kings are asleep in one bed, under a pink coverlet. They are wearing their crowns, but though we can only see arms and shoulders and heads, it seems like they're naked. One is white with a long grey beard, one is white with a short black beard, and one is beardless and black. There's a golden angel hovering over them in the top part of the letter, looking glowing and benevolent.
