Honestly he might be marketing himself as someone beyond “just a horror movie director,” but that doesn’t seem necessary in a world where horror movies are getting Oscar attention.

I didn’t say I think it’s art. I don’t know if it is, and I don’t really care if it is or not. I also don’t care if it’s called art. I’m just saying the mental gymnastics of trying to convince someone that something like programming as art is cringe.

I certainly don’t disagree with the points made in the video. It in fact points out something related to what I’m saying. He states he notices that people that claim something is not art are often gatekeeping something from becoming “elevated.” I’m extending the converse argument: many people trying to claim something is art are trying to elevate it to a new status.

My problem with calling programming art is not that I don’t think programming is art, but rather that I think that label is not useful in this context. Programming is something that is very much valued without that label. Thus adding the label is just an attempt to tack on unneeded elevation to the craft. In some ways the video supports my viewpoint. The debate over what is art is a bit tired. It’s worth having, but personally I don’t think it is needed in this case.

I honestly think trying to define programming as art is just an attempt to unnecessarily elevate it. Programming is utilitarian. It is meant for a specific practical purpose. It does not reveal a shared human experience the way a movie, book, or game does. I have no need to convince myself, a professional software engineer of this because I am perfectly happy accepting that what I do is useful and do not need to try to put myself in a category with artists.

All the author is saying is that people enjoy programming. I also enjoy eating. Is that an art? I even have my own “eating style” in that I like to eat food in specific order, combine two items into one bite, the way I build a bite, etc. But I’d never try to elevate it because I’m a normal person who doesn’t waste brainpower trying to make myself feel special.

A newer one: Strange Darling

Good movie

It’s very popular in scientific computing

Tbh I just thought it was legitimately a low effort monster design just lazily thrown in the top right of the poster. What indicates it is AI?

Eh, I think it’s personally the weakest out of the franchise. I still enjoyed Burn, but I enjoyed Rise a lot more, especially the final act. Rise hit a perfect balance in tone, whereas I actually left the theaters after Burn feeling like the “fun” wasn’t really there. I still need to rewatch 2013 to make sure it’s as good as I remember.

I tried the same user, and it worked for me just now. Thanks for working on this project!

Just fyi, I tried one your instance. Searched a user, clicked a result, and got an error.

When I saw the trailer for Obsession before Hokum (which is a great movie btw), I honestly thought it looked kind of generic. I’m surprised to see so much praise for it. I guess I will have to check it out.

Those actors either aren’t desperate enough to do a movie as pointless as a Rambo presequel or don’t carry the name recognition. It may surprise you to learn that a huge amount of consumers are completely unaware of Franco’s controversy.

Depends on the nature of the project. Is it a pure software project or is it a physical device + platform? Is anything implemented yet?

Wow, I really don’t like the character redesigns. “StarFox characters… but in real life” seems a bit uninspired. I think the rest of the visuals look great though.

Agree to disagree. I cook with EVOO all the time, and it does not taste bitter to me (and I regular cook with avocado oil, so I have a comparison point). It’s not “wasteful” if you buy a Costco sized bottle of their cheaper stuff. Yeah, don’t use your artisinal EVOO to fry something up. Kirkland brand EVOO is perfectly fine for frying and finishing, dressings, etc.

This is something that is repeated a lot, but it is simply not true. No, you shouldn’t use it for high heat cooking. However you can definitely sweat onions and do other low-mid temp cooking. If your oil doesn’t smoke when it hits the pan, then you’re fine. I cook with EVO every day.

I prefer much oatmeal much less loose. I do a 1:3 ratio of oats to water and cook it in the rice cooker using the timer function so I can set it up the night before I eat it. The texture I get is much more “clumpy” than liquidy like this.

If you are talking about the Fennec browser (i.e. Firefox on android), this link is not pointing to that.

It’s also the basis for a popular hardwaregeneration language, chisel. No clue why they chose it
