@it_backwards @MercurialMiss @Snow_Booper @mikerugnetta There’s definitely an Eric Andre meme - the one with the gun - in here somewhere, I’m just in the middle of something right now and can’t quite wrap my brain around it.

@Skylos_Official whoooaaaaaaaa - no. Didn’t know this. There is basically nothing I can do about it, but I’ll see - at the very least - if someone can leave a comment on this video from the IC acct speaking in support of the HK protests.

@QuinnWhalen1 mmmm… off the top of my head: - Modern Warfare rewriting history to make entertainment less challenging to its demo - Netflix’s decision to allow users to speed up video - Facebook’s turmoil of the week - Spotify as an “affect aggregator”

When you look at the qualities of Han Solo vs. those of Indiana Jones, that’s a Comparison Ford.

I'm at the back rewatching @pbsideachannel old episodes and eating chips by myself.

@caloboyle This blows my mind. I’m always impressed that the creators of levels like this can keep track of the narrow window of success that’s possible. It’s a sort of detail oriented videw I can’t imagine having.

@pbsideachannel BULLET HELL MARIO

I talked with some of my pals over at @HotMessPBS about climate change, and “hyperobjects"

@DaThings nice, nice don’t, uh, chill too much

@DaThings sup wyd

This is very (very) far from my decision to make, but I just want to register my complete, and undying support for the idea.

left: the "AI generated" portrait Christie's is auctioning off right now right: outputs from a neural network I trained and put online *over a year ago*. Does anyone else care about this? Am I crazy for thinking that they really just used my network and are selling the results?

Oh dip - nope, no we didn’t AUTHORSHIP STILL MATTERS “How Three French Students Used Borrowed Code to Put the First AI Portrait in Christie’s” theverge.com/2018/10/23/180…
