@FFmpeg@lexfridman@TerryBlacks_BBQ Enjoyed the podcast immensely on my drive today. I took special interest in JB’s explanation for why he has passed up many millions of dollars in offers, for highly ethical reasons. Admirable!
@FountainCartoon Your post brings to mind the song "Money for Nothing" from 15 years before you made the good thing that you made with the tools available at the time.
life is f**king incredible. cows turn grass into ribeyes, trees turn sunlight into oxygen, fruits and coconuts, water falls from the sky and dogs exist. we get to do literally anything we want with our life, fall in love with someone who was a stranger and somehow sex with them makes new life forms. God is real, magic exists, manifestation works, and love always finds a way. dont fall for the doomer shit. we live in a magical dreamscape, dont waste it.
The Steve Jobs launch video for Apple Store from 2001 is a great rewatch: make tech super approachable.

@ABAOProductions Having a vision and getting the AI engines to cooperate with me to get it on screen presents a problem. Just figuring out which tool(s) will get me there, and in what order, is satisfying for me. Then tweaking until the machine coughs up what I want is fun too. (Continued)
