Even Leftovers was 85% turd if you look past the excellent acting.

Lindelof is going to sucker people in with overly dramatic characters in absurd mysterious situations only to fall back on his same old stupid canard “it’s not about the story”.

Among the most critical accusations leveled at Tesla’s “autopilot” this always seems to be overlooked, that Tesla vehicles are extraordinarily safe and protect occupants better than other vehicles in cases where the occupants would suffer injuries. I wonder if it’s some form of survivor bias taking place. https://en.wi…

There is so much more richness and meaning in what you’ve just written compared to that quote. I can’t really find much to disagree with now that I understand your ideas better.

Every war movie, even the anti-war movies, are pro-war movies.

I suspect most “40 hours” at game development studios are closer to 25-30 productive hours and 10-15 non productive hours.

Lang: We’ll just get more time or whatever.

I’m not one of these people who believes after 40 hours you start making more mistakes, and it’s ineffective.

I suspect the Dunbar Number has more implications besides max social network nodes. I suspect it also reveals our limited capacity to comprehend magnitudes. People really don’t understand the scale of video being uploaded every second.

Just a FYI, we tried “not all men” and were crucified for it.

Major red flag!

The apologistas are alarming to behold.
