Was ist diese absolut absurde Obsession mit ersten Sätzen in Büchern? Ich würde niemand, der ein Buch nach dem ersten Satz bewertet, auch nur ein abgebranntes Streichholz anvertrauen. Die Handlung muss auf den ersten paar Seiten irgendwie charmant genug sein, mich zu interessieren. Mehr nicht.

The sexual tension between you and the guy you barely knew at school who came out much later and now your relationship is simply liking each other's Instagram stories

Elon might be a trillionaire while thousands of families starve, but did you also know he suffers from ARFID and can only eat ethically sourced ortolan bunting OR A5 wagyu that has never been touched by human hands? Maybe don’t be so quick to judge, hmm?

Cue all the people thinking hating men is the same as fighting the patriarchy, when it is, in fact, the patriarchy.

instead of making a pithy joke (which I really want to do), I'll say that if you're struggling, and trying to cope with the horrors of every day life and your taught masculinity is telling you to bottle things up, you should reach out for help.

Men need help too. It's okay to not be okay.

"if you pass an array to a function it can no longer tell how big it is, you have to tell the function how big the array is in advance" - they made the language wrong then!

(i am joking but it is funny finding out how much harder this is than c# or python)

very irritating whenever anyone acts like a relative handful of incel nazi internet dwellers are representative of an entire generation. in reality when that generation see a more left-wing option on offer they flock to it
The Greens are winning the support of around half of 18 to 24 year olds.

Reform are on 5%. So much for young people's turn to the right!

And the Young Greens now have 40,000 members - the biggest youth and students wing in British politics

This might be the most realistic portrayal of being an artist working for indecisive directors/leads I've ever seen on tv. Everyone needs to be watching The Chair Company.

If you want to learn to make art, there are countless people out there willing to help you. The only thing is, you have to be willing to try. The AI pushers want what they perceive is the kudos for having made the art, but they don't want to try.

The products of genAI fucking suck because they don't require any focus, any discipline. They just require the easiest part of the whole endeavour: the initial idea. And the technology tells you that's enough. You only have to have one vague thought and it can be made real.

But unless you actually do that, unless you focus your mind and whatever other body parts you might be using on the task of creating a thing, it'll never be more than half-formed. It'll never be more than whatever popped into your head first.

There *are* barriers to entry for creativity. They're not necessarily monetary or even based on talent: the key component is making some kind of effort. Because that effort is where your raw, unfocused idea gets turned into something that is real and may have value (even if only to yourself).

Human brains produce new ideas every second of every day. Sit down with a tiny child and ask them to explain something they're doing and you will hear half a dozen of them. Ideas are what humans *do*. The idea is by far the easiest part of any creative process.
But the point (there is a point) is, people fetishise the idea over the hard work of plotting and character development and research and internal consistency and just writing the fucker, because the Idea is the sparkly magic bit.

And this is what makes them put value in the AI prompt.

Jesus was not only the founder of Christianity but also of AquaFitness, which is reflected in the ritual of christening, where you put the person to convert to Christianity under water as a primitive hazing ritual to make them aware of the need to perform under water.
