    Would be ever so awesome if the keyboard had feet. As far as ergonomics go, I don't care too much about split layouts and similar nonsense, but my wrists start to hurt really fast …

    Oh, forgot about that one. However, note that it's also "parasocial" in the way that the young female fans think the musicians care about them more than they actually do, by orders…

    Streamers have this feature called "chat", which feeds into the illusion. With rockstars, interactions are more limited, which is a sort of reality check.

    Reddit has quite a bit of drama that their favorite youtuber, it turns out, is a flawed person! And these subscribers disagree with them! Unsubscription "breakups" ensue. They, how…

    So are parasocial relationships with influencers or streamers. I'm not trying to relativize this, but those phenomena are in the same zip code. With the latter, though, at least th…

    The Red Queen's Race is real, though. Compilers keep moving, platforms keep moving, users of the library (I mean programs importing/linking them) keep moving, assumptions keep movi…

    In some jurisdictions, it depends. You may film “a street”, and people go into and out of the frame all the time, and it’s okay. But if you take a random passerby and make them the…
