“'You Can See Everything' is a hilarious, thrilling, fascinating, beautiful piece of art. What it certainly is not is a documentary, and it’s dangerous to pretend that it is,” writes Theranos whistleblower Tyler Shultz. https://bit.ly/4Bk2nDJ

I really fucking need people to go to their local college and audit a documentary filmmaking class before saying shit like "I don't think this movie accurately portrays the facts therefore it's not a documentary" that's not what the word "documentary" *means*

🚨🚨INSTANT CLASSIC ALERT🚨🚨 Have you noticed we never talk about anime, gaming, posting, or jobs? You’re not alone! At long last we address why: turns out, a society that only allows you to do four things was a temporary luxury we were lucky to have. We now are able to do zero things. Oops!!

I frequently see "AI" boosters implying that LLMs are simply an innate and superior part of coding now, inescapable, and that literally all programmers agree with them. And, well. That, too, is a form of propaganda

Tiered success isn’t the greatest innovation of Apocalypse World. It’s not even the part that makes it work. The moves are what make it work. It’s not a single system of 2d6 with different mechanics, it’s a constellation of subsystems - moves - that just all use 2d6 as their randomizing agent
