Linguists are probably the least likely people to get upset at someone using the “wrong” word. they might pull out their notebook and start asking you questions though
not pictured, but uniball eye micro was my goat for high school and college. I had to do british standardized exams in high school which required black pen (not pencil). these guys write super smoothly and create really nice lines, but they take a sec or two to dry so you gotta be careful not to smudge.
I think #1 in the pic is a thicker version of these
grammar pedantry is way more annoying than any grammar mistake
my friend did these for me yesterday
I always wondered if something like this could be possible in the future of terminals. glad to see kitty pushing the envelope! Looking forward to see this used for stuff like markdown rendering. Hoping this gets picked up by other terminals and neovim like the undercurl did.
it’s fat + fat + fat. definitely not something I could eat regularly but after a night out in cap hill it’s fire
Japan also has these at every convenience store:
they’re not good but they do the job
Seattle is probably my favorite. Good hack for New York is to ask them to put the hot sauce they usually use for kebabs/gyro on it
I have this as a sticker on my water bottle
If you’re going for “pop music all sounds the same”, that doesn’t really match my experience of actually listening to modern popular music. There’s so much damn variety and unique sound out there these days. Although I’m not a professional musician so I guess I can’t be sure what kinds of creative restrictions being in the industry puts on one
Soon for me “human being” will be high enough of a bar to be nontrivial to enforce
I loved programming since I was 14. This was an acceptable passion to spend time on because it would allow me to be successful (read: make money).
My sister always loved visual art, and is now in art school. This is an unacceptable passion, and when she tells people that she’s in art school the first response is almost always “oh so what are you planning to do with that degree?”
We have been conditioned into a very narrow definition of success. It’s not surprising then that we start seeing art as “the next big problem to solve”, and you have all these tech bros frothing at the mouth to be the first to “solve” it and become the next startup billionaire.
Low-effort art and music has always been around. You don’t see anyone bumping those inoffensive cover albums and lounge remixes that you hear at the mall or the driving range in their cars though. Anyone who doesn’t already love listening to music isn’t in that position because of a lack of options in the (sigh) market. So I promise you won’t see “billions of new customers” dying to consume derivative slop music.
one thing I hate about AI images is that if you have multiple of the same subject in the image, they often all look exactly the same. the backs and faces of those leopards are eerie in their uniformity
you’re right, it’s definitely easier to market and push a high budget movie or game and make a ton of money off of it. I guess I was thinking of total labor involved in publishing a book vs a movie without considering whether it will actually be read/watched
books are hard to make compared to tv/movies and video games?? how?
Once I got used to single-directory filetree browsing plus fuzzy finding, I have never been able to comfortably use a traditional filetree anymore. most of them are not designed for efficient keyboard use (vscode and intellij at least) and don’t really help understanding the structure of the project imo (unless there arent that many files). For massive projects I find it easier to spend the initial effort of learning a few directory names and the vague structure using oil.nvim, and then eventually I can just find what I need almost instantly by fuzzy finding.
jhfly is pretty cool (and squid ethics too)
Ken M made a similar joke a while back right?
So you write out all your commands as machine code I assume? wait no, obviously you set the transistor state manually with an electron gun?
