The message a disappointingly large segment of Americans need to absorb…but won’t before it’s too late.

Neil Gaiman was kind to me, personally and professionally.

Neil Gaiman is a monster and abuser.

Both of these are truths.

Neil Gaiman shouldn’t be treated like an extreme outlier. It’s not fame or following that enables men like Gaiman to act the way they do. It’s power. And power can be A-list celebrity status or it can be the head of any ordinary household or a leader in any local community.

Treat artists like humans. If you're commissioning artists, communicate with them about your expectations and questions. Keep in mind that one month is a FAST turnaround with how much work artists do outside of drawing the art, and the lives and struggles we have outside of our jobs.

Making art makes me feel better.

But to make art I have to feel better.

What is this nonsense.

One of the hardest things to read about my once-favorite author www.vulture.com/article/neil...

A special LLM course focusing on Smol models, the <2B parameters generic models which can run on-device/in-browser

To my surprise, we find the opposite of what I thought when we started this project:

The approach to reasoning LLMs use looks unlike retrieval, and more like a generalisable strategy synthesising procedural knowledge from many documents doing a similar form of reasoning.

This needs to be said, loud, and often.

Make art that you think is fuckin sick as hell. Make the shit you never thought you could that you always wanted to see. Beat your insecurity to death and fight to become your own favorite artist.
