At long last, my Next Generation Scenes PR is out for review! This will be a huge step forward for the flexibility and usability of #Bevy scenes. Stoked to finally get this in the hands of the people!
In 2018, legal scholar Tim Wu wrote in the New York Times that: Todayâs cult of convenience fails to acknowledge that difficulty is a constitutive feature of human experience. Convenience is all destination and no journey. This piece well predates the current AI boom, but âall destination and no journeyâ is a pretty good explanation for why using AI to create art is mainly compelling to people who think about creativity in terms of producing content and generating intellectual property. They just want the thing they can market and sell for money or clout; they donât care how they got there. I know youâre sick of talking about AI. I am too. This is only a little bit about AI, I promise. Like all my writing about technology, itâs mostly about people.
Hi #fediverse. We need to talk about something.
While talking to a colleague about how I recently learned most people have never sat on a cow it came up that she has never sat on a horse. Like, not even once during childhood.
Another colleague admitted they also have never sat on a horse.
My hypothesis is that most people have at one point in their life sat on a horse.

Have you sat on a horse?
Please boost for scientific accuracy.
