Important PSA: I hope you never see other artists as competition. Please take their success as proof that you can also succeed here.

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.
Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

never put more than 75% effort into a single page. Save the major background for the establishing shot and imply the rest through gradients, color blurs if you have to.
If a background doesn't add anything you couldn't tell the story without, you might not need one. several jobs for one person!

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

Did a solo run of Peak tonight. First run was a bust after some pretty bad luck. Second run was going great— made it to the Kiln campsite all by my lonesome, a first for me! Paused for a moment to rest my hands and collect myself….. and then my Steam Deck’s battery died with a 1 second warning.

(cont) "We need only add subtle shading when it offers readers information they wouldn't perceive without it. On the left, Zorn's shading tells a charming story about how sunlight graces the cheek. Losing that subtlety (right) would cost us that story. This is what subtlety is for."
