I saw Coyote Vs Acme with a bunch of friends as a late birthday present and... it's so good. It's REALLY good. It's the Looney Tunes movie I've been waiting for. If you like Wile E., and loved Who Framed Roger Rabbit, you'll enjoy it.

The Amazing Digital Circus Episode 9. Saw it last night in theaters. Spoiler-free review: It made some bold choices (one in particular, the more I thought about it). I walked away satisfied by the conclusion. Gooseworx and crew finished a great story.

I'm backer #99! You could be backer #100! Think of the prestige! Think of the fame! Think of the penguins!

Having played the prototype myself, I heartily recommend. This one is super fun.

When I was a young child I read a very old sci-fi short story where automation had accelerated production of goods so far that consumption was compulsory, and immediately stratified by class. The joke was an inversion where the rich had hand-made, artisan possessions made from real materials...

For the first time ever, I watched The Nightmare Before Christmas last night. I'm sorry, fans... I think it's overrated. The movie has tremendous amounts of style, visual creativity, and good songs. But I found hardly any substance in it. I just didn't care about any of the characters (even Jack).

So, I get these YouTube ads that promise that if I can imagine a website, AI can build it for me. Because, after all, "coming up with the idea is the hardest part". 1. No, coming up with the idea isn't the hardest part. The hardest part is FINISHING THE THING YOU'RE WORKING ON.

2. Let's say that coming up with the idea was the hardest part. Either AI will have bugs building what you need it to build (and then you won't know how to fix them because you didn't build it), or AI will do it perfectly, which meant that someone else already figured out how to do your "new idea".

AI companies don't care if we finish the thing we want to do. They get money because consumers have flashy ideas of something that they want to make without much effort. It doesn't matter if the idea works; AI's already earned its money from "helping" you.
