Wanna feel old? There's more time between the release of Star Wars (1977) and now than there was between the actual Battle of Yavin and Star Wars

Yeah — the main thing stopping me from putting more effort into it is that a lot of the Python ecosystem seems very resigned to "everything sucks" and isn't willing to fund improvements.
I genuinely have no idea how Astral will make money. I hope they are spectacularly successful for all our sakes

I think this confirms my non-canon suspicion that the Empire restarted the calendar at Year Zero when the Imperial Senate was abolished (i.e also about a week before the Battle of Yavin), and when the Republic was restored they didn't want to have to reprogram all the clocks again...

I’m an artist, man. Quality is a thing we sneak into people’s consumption like parents putting broccoli under cheese. You think most people care if it goes away?

Le pire c'est qu'aujourd'hui de par la poussée de ces entreprises, on confond les "IA" génératives avec d'autres outils basés sur les Réseaux Neuronaux qui eux sont utiles aux métiers du graphisme, par exemple les outils comme RemBG : github.com/danielgatis/...

Ed Zitron screaming into microphone about CEOs is propatainment/enterganda, not journalism. And IMHO that's okay. Unless he calls himself a journalist, which as far as I know he does not.

I’m going to further argue that it makes much more sense here, because subtracting string lengths is rarely necessary, but subtracting durations (for instance, in the course of computing cache timeouts for old data) is common.

I think the arts (and crafts) are where the labor theory comes closest to being true. Meaning, people will pay extra for you to do it in a more labor-intensive way. Like, I'm pretty confident artisan soap actually obeys labor theory.

Also CGI replacing practical effects, drum machines, even hand-loom work getting replaced. There's a long tradition, for better and worse.
