More like we’re in a recession and halting data center construction projects will kill the fake numbers they’re pointing at to claim “actually the economy is fine”

If you give me 12 bn and I spend that to make 5 bn, I don’t think I’m a good business person. Hell, give me 2 billion and I’ll hand you back a billion in dividends and save you billions.

Watching Joe’s talks always fill me with enthusiasm. Someone said Joe’s approach to developing was to write a module, then test it and then delete it and rewrite based on what he’d learned. He repeated that process until he was satisfied. That spirit of always learning and exploring is beautiful.

I was in postproduction so I didn’t get to meet him. But based on the notes he gave in review he at least had a clear vision and he didn’t create any drama unlike some other directors.

I honestly thought he’d died until I had to work on Doctor Strange 2 and found out he was the director.

Honestly, I’d guess DHH has to go hard against Elixir because a smart, capable guy like José who doesn’t fit into DHH’s racist narrative is a threat to his ego.

There are so many people, so many, that love film and want to dedicate their whole lives to making films, in front of the camera, behind it, in editing suites and casting rooms and makeup trailers. And that these locusts can come in and just devour the industry, take it from us all, is devastating.

One thing I find endlessly funny about the rise of AI is that it has revealed that there is a large number of people who believe that the reason they wrote essays at school or university is their teachers were desperately waiting for them to provide a definite answer to “Lear: what’s up with him?”

They should just reuse the ending from the She-Hulk miniseries. It’s perfect and the point still needs to be made.

It sounds more like an indictment of the US’s terrible medical insurance environment than any sort of pro-AI stance. “Look! This dystopian technology *might*, if it worked better than it works now, make it so I don’t have to navigate a complicated also dystopian system we put up with as a society.”

The pain is real. There’s a setting called SRAM Save Interval that defaults to never that you have to set to make it save to disk. I lost an hour of progress the other day.

Is the coffee for me while meeting with the despot or for the despot? Because like I’ve got a long list of despots I’d like to see face the guillotine and I will certainly need a fair amount of caffeine to get through them all without yawning.

I think it really helps when the dissenters voices are heard. We all have a tendency to keep quiet and let people assume we agree. There’seven a fancy latin phrase about it, “qui tacet consentire videtur”. Thanks for having the courage to speak.

AP Stylebook warns against anthropomorphizing AI systems: “Avoid language that gives them human characteristics… Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.”

Artificial intelligence systems do not think, feel, want or understand. Avoid language that gives them human characteristics. This is called anthropomorphizing, when we ascribe human traits, emotions or behaviors to non-human things, such as animals or inanimate objects.
Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.

I think you could invent a female pilot for Asteroids or a female adventurer for Dungeon but I wasn’t sure if ‘character design’ took it from stress free to work.

I always think to myself, “If you don’t respect yourself and your craft enough to do your own thinking, why should I listen to you?” Add to that that the altar they worship at is built on stolen dreams and destroying the environment, and it’s really damaging my faith in humanity
