That's like saying you can "replicate" Shakespeare because you can type. Copying something that's already been done is surely the bare minimum here.

I think that's their point. I think the proper (Spanish) pronunciation is gwah-dah-loo-peh.

Racket is such a sadistic way to introduce programming. It's disgusting what they've done

Are you saying that painters become proficient (even great?) from copying from life? I don't understand what you mean here. I don't believe there has ever been an artist that hasn'…

On the other hand, you should also be willing to criticize an artist's intentions and goals in themselves

To me at least, being human-focused and sensitive enough to be a novelist is contrary to being a web personality selling questionable financial advice... If the research is actuall…

Has reading fiction ever been considered an 'intellectual' past time?

But on the other hand, if at some point you become unable to respond (artistically) to your biting self-criticism, there's the danger of ceasing production entirely. Then five year…

My hunch is the author has more experience with tweets than articles - tweets in crypto communities often comprise a single run-on sentence packed with keywords and (counter-cultur…

More or less the theory behind Finnegans Wake

Your comment makes a lot of sense to me. But I think that "Today there were many crows, hundreds of them flying through the air" is your definition of data, not a story. Mentioning…

AFAIK it's mostly remembered for being a 4-player FPS at a time when those were rare for consoles. It was an above average movie tie-in game, but famously doesn't hold up to the sl…

"Stuck in time" is a positive. Why should I pay attention to a writer who's constantly changing their mind and retracting their work?

I assumed it was pin-chin, but "Thomas Pinecone" is too much fun to not to slip in every once in a while.

Reminds me of last 30 minutes of the film Cremaster 3, in which a man scales the inside of the Guggenheim, rock-climbing style, stopping on each floor to confront some sort a chall…

Think of it this way: props from the original Star Wars films fetch millions of dollars at auction. Most movie fans and even most Star Wars fans would never pay that much for a pro…

Some of the ideas/predictions I thought were relevant: - Technologists will mistake a novel method for novel results - The art world will see it as a fad on which to capitalize - T…

After the Holy Mountain in 1973, it wasn't until 1989 he made another proper 'Jodorowsky' movie. Then until the 2010s when he was able to make two more films from crowdfunding. I d…

Yes, that's a fine start. However to me 'home' implies either some level of authority/ownership or a relationship with an owner. From my understanding it's much more difficult to r…

Discord borrowed the term from online gaming, as its initial target audience was gamers. Models like 'subreddit,' 'Discord server,' and 'Facebook group' are simple to grasp because…

As an outsider to the art world myself, like most of us, some of the article's framing seemed strange to me--like the goal was to craft a narrative for potentially lucrative art de…

With television you turn it on and there are a few mediocre choices you can tune out. On streaming platforms you have to specifically select a program to watch. When Gen Z watches/…

Not necessarily. I did a neuropsychological evaluation because I suspected I had ADHD (I do) and it was causing me trouble. I was also diagnosed with autism/asperger's which isn't …
