Herndon and Dryhurst are frequent collaborators, and xhairymutantx is their work. So they didn’t just prompt an LLM to make the image, they trained the model themselves. And they specifically trained the model on pictures of Herndon (who has distinctive red, braided hair).

I’m personally a really big fan of their work (which I don’t expect everyone to be), but the picture that’s being circulated in articles and apparently sold at auction without context is pretty uninspiring.

This isn’t a shitpost, this is legitimate. Being able to work through the physicality of emotions is an important part of processing them. You need to be able to cry when you’re sad, jump up-and-down when you’re excited, and scream when your angry, for examples.

How I react to having my face peeled off, layer by layer:

Was it The Most Unwanted Song?

Also, don’t judge people for what they like, yourself included. It doesn’t need to be reasonable or pretend to be intellectually significant.

“Did you see that ludicrous display last night?”

“Oh, no, I only pay attention when my gender makes it to the playoffs.”

Modal editing for just raw text input would actually be slower, because you also enter and leave Insert Mode. I find it’s very fast and powerful for navigating around the text, which you probably do a lot more than actually editing it. And when it does come to editing, there are a lot of higher-level tools (at least in Vim) for accomplishing things more quickly, like the ‘s’ command and ‘q’ macros.

I think getting into a mental “flow” state is really valuable, and muscle memory is important for being able to stay there. If your muscle memory is to navigate around using the mouse, that’s great, but Vim feels faster to me.

It’s a better replacement for the built-in >= predicate.

All I see is line go up. It seems like feminine is the right direction.

Wrong link? I still enjoyed it though

Shitty cope. I’m a good person because I don’t hate people, I just hate their gender.

Covid vaccine?

Are you doing the stretch and fold on the whole wad or individual loaves? I would want the latter, just because that’s what I know. Otherwise the bread does look fantastic, and your boss should get you an appretinceship at a bakery if it’s important to him.

Yeah, you would get a runtime error calling that member without checking that it exists.
