I’ve spent the last week in Orlando, FL and every service/gig worker I’ve interacted with has been an immigrant in some way. For a state hell-bent on pursuing every policy to literally sink it into the ocean, they really rely on those folks they say are “stealing our jobs and resources”

I love shooting film as much as the next person- okay, probably more- but I think photo books that are marketed based as “_____ on Film” is a little bit dumb. Don’t fetishize the medium, just use it!

The only real use for AI image generation is to sell a “vibe”, since the created image is total bullshit. On top of that, the vibes are mid, as the kids would say. (i think they might say that?)

Is anybody surprised by the examples that come up? Business schools? Adjuncts being asked to carry shocking teaching loads with little or no support? Online classes aimed at maximizing university revenue? It's an article about AI in the classroom, but points to a host of other pathologies.

This is a great example of Apple's weirdness around producing their own shows. "Only Apple" would care about ensuring something like this is shot on an iPhone and the end result looks... kinda terrible? If you check the photographer's portfolio, it's definitely not a skill issue here.

Aragorn kneels. Gandalf places the crown on Aragorn’s head, and proclaims: ‘Now come the days of the King, and may they be blessed while the thrones of the Valar endure!’ The streets are strewn with flowers as Aragorn enters the City and begins the climb up its seven levels.

If we could retire “POV” and “it’s giving” from the lexicon as soon as possible, that’d be great.

okay when we said the “miners to coders bootcamps” were potentially problematic, I don’t think any of us had the opposite in mind as the “fix”
