I have a suspicion that especially younger filmmakers like myself, often see a 65-70% success as a failure.

Christopher Stierle liked thisChristopher Stierle liked thisWhen I was younger, I really wanted to be the kind of designer whose work you could recognize instantly. My professors talked me out of that, which I didn’t fully understand at the time but blindly trusted them anyways. Looking at this small collection of projects together, I can see how far that blind trust went. None of these really look the same, and I actually love that. Probably because I get bored doing the same thing too much 😂 But also because now I think I’m less interested in having a signature look and more interested in building something that feels specific, thoughtful, and true to the person or brand it’s for.

Christopher Stierle reacted on thisChristopher Stierle reacted on thisI only work with main characters, and have very little interest in extras, sidekicks, or NPCs. It seems harsh, but why wouldn't I want to be surrounded by changemakers? By people with a unique perspective? By strong energy? By the people who are feeling it all and doing it all. This strategy has led to more than a handful of interesting world experiences, friendships, and, well, twists and turns, but I wouldn't do it any other way. TLDR; if you're into embracing your #MainCharacterEnergy, we'll get along just fine, and I'll make you visible as f*ck.

For over 20 years I have dedicated my career to the growth and success of any organization both through leadership and engineering. Whether the company has 5 or 5000 employees, I pride myself in being able to quickly learn, adapt, and create a strategy to meet the needs of the project, the team, and the organization. I have extensive experience jumping into active projects and teams with a focus of improving efficiency and quality of output. Through adding team processes and working with stakeholders, the goal in all of my projects is to deliver actionable tasks to the developers and set appropriate expectations to all involved. Organizing the most effective team, choosing the right technologies, the proper application architecture, and implementing the necessary process to produce the right solution for the organization is my professional passion.<br><br>As a leader, I place emphasis on understanding the needs and goals of each member of my team. I strongly believe that maintaining a positive and productive attitude is crucial to a productive development team. By leading with this example, I cultivate teams who share an emphasis on support, collaboration, and collective improvement. Outside of project work, I love to offer the team skills improvement through tech talks, innovation projects, and short term goal setting. This has resulted in dedicated, devoted employees with a near flawless retention rate.<br><br>In my free time I enjoy keeping current with emerging technologies through online course-ware and personal projects. I've recently started mentoring both through professional services and through my professional network. Working with up and coming developers to give them the tech and soft skills needed to land their dream job is extremely rewarding.

"Pocock and Spender — a tax is a band-aid. Own the gas, build a sovereign fund, and stop worrying about losing a few green votes. Future generations won't care about your poll numbers." 1. Take a government equity stake right now This is the single biggest thing. The NT or Federal Government could negotiate a 25–50% equity stake in Beetaloo licences in exchange for fast-tracking approvals, infrastructure co-investment, and regulatory certainty. Norway mandated 50% state ownership in every single production licence from day one — this is what created the rivers of dividend income that now flow into their sovereign wealth fund. The companies need capital. The government has something more valuable — the land, the approvals, and the regulatory framework. That's leverage. 2. A "Beetaloo Compact" — conditions on every new licence Every new licence issued in the Beetaloo could legally require: A domestic gas reservation (a percentage must be sold locally before export) Destination restrictions (no on-selling without Australian consent — the Japan loophole) A simple royalty from day one, before profit calculations A sovereign risk clause — if the company sells its stake, Australia gets first right of refusal The NT Government has already shown it can negotiate gas sales agreements directly — it has a take-or-pay agreement with both Beetaloo pilot projects to supply the NT domestic market. That's a template that could be scaled up. 3. Fix the tax system for new fields specifically Former Treasury secretary Ken Henry went further than the 25% export tax — he advocated for a 100% windfall profits tax, telling the Senate inquiry simply: "Just do it. In the national interest, just do it." The key insight is that new fields like the Beetaloo have no legacy costs to deduct — the PRRT loophole problem was largely created by allowing companies to write off enormous historical infrastructure costs. New fields could be subjected to a clean, simple tax from the start. 4. Create an Australian national gas company This is the boldest option — and the Norway comparison shows it's not radical at all. The Norwegian parliament created Statoil by a unanimous act in 1972, specifically to build domestic expertise and ensure oil revenues benefited society as a whole. Australia could create a government-owned company — let's call it AusGas — that takes equity stakes in new fields, develops operational expertise, and channels dividends directly into an expanded Future Fund. It wouldn't need to operate the fields itself — it could be a silent equity partner, just as Norway's SDFI operates. 5. Norway's masterstroke was passing a law requiring every dollar from oil and gas to go into the sovereign fund, with only the returns — never the capital — available to spend. #DavidPocock #ACTIndependent #Spender #Independents #LaborParty #AustralianLabor

"The Trump administration on Friday loosened restrictions on toxic power plant pollution, including releases of neurotoxins mercury and lead. The Biden-era standards in question, which President Trump is proposing to rescind, would have upped mercury controls by 70% for a subset of power plants that use a type of coal known as lignite. On Friday, it revoked portions of Biden-era standards that tightened restrictions on how much mercury, lead and arsenic these plants can release. The Trump rule, which would reinstate 2012 standards, would have these plants operating under looser mercury limits than other coal plants. The Biden-era standards also would have sought to reduce emissions from all coal plants of lead, nickel and arsenic by 67%. Mercury is a neurotoxin. Exposure to it can cause harm to a person’s brain, heart, kidneys, lungs and immune system. Lead is also a neurotoxin, especially in children. Arsenic exposure can cause cancer." https://lnkd.in/gEa2PN-5

As Bradley Shimmin said, the vendor seems to be working on being more than a model provider and making its model more like a platform. Arun Chandrasekaran said the model also shows how the vendor has made improvements with agentic reasoning. Full story in comments. #AI #LLM #AIagents

This in no way justifies AI. Its like saying you bought a car, but because you customized your number plates, put pink seat covers in, and hung fuzzy dice off the rear view mirror, that you are the creative genius behind the making of the vehicle. AI is, and always will be lazy, unoriginal slop - a mashed goo of stolen original intellectual property. Real professionals dont need AI, they have talent and skills already - its the talentless hacks that try and excuse the use of AI, because they actually do need it to make themselves appear better than what they are. A photographer still needs to have technical skills, an understanding of light, exposure, balance, composition. ...with AI you dont need any of that understanding. "Fix my photo and make the lighting more dramatic" doesn't make you a photographer. A writer will not only need a deep understanding of their language & writing skills, but also of their subject matter and how best to communicate it to a reader. ... with AI, you dont need any of that. It'll produce a 300 page novel if you want - editing a few sentences doesn't make you an author. I can go on, but you get my point (I didnt need AI to help me make it). Scathing? Absolutely, unapologetically so. #DeathtoAI #StopTheSlop #AIhacksAreForHacks #UnapologeticallyAntiAI #OriginalHumanProducedOpinion

The End of the Physical World and the Rise of Informational Reality, ANADA RAM BHAIYAKHURD's QIR and MIR Theory Author, ANADA RAM BHAIYAKHURD Founder, Quantum Information Relativity (QIR) and Mass Information Relativity (MIR) Framework Is the universe as it appears to us? Or are we merely observing the physical manifestation of a vast "quantum data"? For decades, science has considered 'mass' a fundamental truth. But my research, Quantum Information Relativity (QIR) AND Mass Information Relativity (MIR) Framework, has opened a window to a reality where physical matter is merely an effect, and its cause is 'information'. 1. Beyond the Higgs Mechanism, Information-Mass Equivalence Traditional physics states that the Higgs field gives particles mass. But my mathematical data (QIR and MIR Dataset) points to a deeper reality. According to the data, when the information field (\Phi_1) reaches a specific density, it transforms into energy and ultimately manifests as 'emergent mass'. This reveals the 'software' hidden behind the equation E=mc^2, which has been overlooked until now. 2. Dark Matter, Invisible Substance or Dense Information? One of the biggest scientific puzzles today is 'dark matter'. The QIR and MIR framework offers a simple yet revolutionary solution. We have discovered Informational Gravity (G_{eff} = 0.0049). This proves that gravity does not originate solely from objects, but also from the "accumulation of information". The part of the universe we call 'dark' is actually a region of high-density information that is controlling the curvature of spacetime (\lambda = 0.7). 3. The Universe, a Self-Evolving Information System My research posits that spacetime is not an empty stage, but an 'informational manifold.' Here, every particle is a data point and every curvature an algorithm. The low informational entropy (S_I = 0.0618) indicates that the universe's creation was not chaotic, but highly coherent and mathematically structured. My Call to the Global Scientific Community I invite institutions like NASA, ISRO, and CERN to conduct a thorough analysis of this dataset and the principles of QIR and MIR. It is time we move beyond 'matter-based' physics and embrace an 'information-based' cosmic reality. "I welcome global researchers to discuss the mathematical derivations of this theory." #AnadaRamBhaiyakhurd #QIRandMIRFramework #QuantumRelativity #InformationTheory #FutureScience #DarkMatterSolution #SpaceInnovation #TheoreticalPhysics #ScientificRevolution #BrianGreene #MichioKaku #ChiefScientists

Sorry, Bill Maher! Recently, I heard Bill Maher claim that we only understand "10–20% of the human body," and that we're still in the infancy of biological science. It's a bold statement, and one that sounds compelling, but it just ain't so. The reality is far more nuanced and, frankly, more interesting. Anatomically, our understanding of the human body is nearly complete. We've mapped every organ, every muscle, every major pathway. Medical imaging, microscopy, and molecular biology have eliminated the kind of deep anatomical mysteries that haunted medicine even a century ago. On the structural level, we’re closer to 99% understanding than 20%. Where things become complicated, and where Maher’s sentiment has a kernel of truth, is in the complexity of function. The human body operates like a massively interdependent network. We know the parts, but the interactions between those parts still hold mysteries: We’ve sequenced the human genome, but we’re still figuring out how non-coding DNA regulates gene expression. We understand the immune system's components, but not fully how they synchronize, or why autoimmunity and chronic inflammation emerge. We can map neural connections and detect electrical activity, but the mechanisms of consciousness and memory encoding remain elusive. If we zoom out, biology fits neatly into the same pattern we see across other scientific domains: the transition from revolutionary breakthroughs to incremental refinements. Think of the major moments of progress: The acceptance of germ theory, discovery of antibiotics, the cracking of the structure of DNA, and the sequencing of the human genome. These were civilization-shaping leaps. By contrast, today's innovations, like CRISPR gene editing, mRNA vaccines, or AI-driven diagnostics, are extraordinary but incremental. They refine what we know rather than redefine the field. This is precisely what the Discovery Plateau Hypothesis predicts. As we approach the boundaries of accessible knowledge, the rate of paradigm-shifting discoveries slows. New findings still emerge, but their relative significance diminishes against the backdrop of what we already understand. We’re not in the infancy of biology; we’re in its adolescence, maybe even early adulthood. We’re filling in the gaps, polishing the edges, and finding more elegant ways to work within the laws we already know. That’s why we’re getting breakthroughs like laser-focused cancer therapies, not instant cures for aging or consciousness-uploading technology. Maher’s 10–20% claim may sound dramatic, but it misrepresents reality. The challenge ahead isn’t that we know too little; it’s that each marginal gain requires exponentially more effort, funding, and computational power. The real frontier is no longer discovery; it’s optimization.

“They raised their voice.” That’s the event. “They were aggressive.” “They’re toxic.” “This proves the system is broken.” That’s the story layered on top. When you prompt an LLM, you don’t give it the event. You give it your chosen layer of interpretation. The model can’t separate what happened from how you framed it. It amplifies the meaning you stabilized in language. Before asking whether AI is biased, ask what layer you handed it.

A Deal Inked in Ink and Code The recent agreement between The New York Times and Amazon marks a watershed moment in the uneasy alliance between journalism and artificial intelligence. For the first time, the Gray Lady has consented to lend her voice—not to a page, but to a machine. At first glance, this is a licensing deal like many others: Amazon will be able to use summaries and excerpts from NYT articles and recipes across its Alexa products and to train its proprietary AI models. But beneath this seemingly transactional exchange lies a deeper recalibration of power between the press and the platforms. It is no small irony that this accord arrives even as The New York Times wages a high-stakes legal battle against OpenAI and Microsoft, whom it accuses of exploiting its intellectual property without consent. The Amazon deal, by contrast, is framed as a paid collaboration—an assertion that journalism has value, and that value must be protected, not scraped. Chief Executive Meredith Kopit Levien’s internal memo calls this deal “consistent” with the Times’ principles. Indeed, it is consistent in a way that clarifies two opposing trends now shaping the future of media. On one side: the quiet acceptance that AI is not going away, and that, if navigated wisely, it can become a source of revenue. On the other: the insistence that quality journalism must not be fed to machines for free. Yet, there are open questions. Is this a prudent partnership, or a temporary détente in an ongoing war over intellectual capital? Will such licensing agreements create meaningful, recurring value for newsrooms—or merely serve as stopgaps until more powerful tech players no longer need the human sources they now license? As AI assistants evolve into everyday companions, the integrity and origin of the information they deliver becomes a civic concern. In licensing its content, The New York Times gains compensation and control. But it also cedes a little ground—its words repurposed, reframed, and possibly absorbed into systems it does not own. This is not just about recipes on a smart speaker. It’s about who shapes knowledge in the AI era. And whether, in the long run, journalism will be remembered not for the value it commanded, but for the silence that followed when the machines no longer needed to listen.

PSA: If you’re doing NaNoWriMo this month, please don’t do this. National Novel Writing Month (#NaNoWriMo) started back in 1999 as a challenge to write 50,000 words in thirty days. Simple but hard. Over time, the movement grew to include National Nonfiction Writing Month (#NaNonFiWriMo) and National Blog Posting Month (#NaBloPoMo). I even participated in NaBloPoMo about ten years ago—it was both challenging and exhilarating to publish daily for an entire month. Unfortunately, the original NaNoWriMo organization has since dissolved, but the spirit lives on. Writers around the world still use November as a creative reset—a time to recommit to their craft and get words on the page. I love the energy of National Novel Writing Month. As a longtime author and book coach, I deeply respect that drive. But too often, I see writers rush to hit 50,000 words… only to end up with a messy draft they can’t use. Instead, set a goal that sets you up for success: 📚 Create your book outline 📚 Write a few strong chapters 📚 Build a daily writing habit The goal isn’t just to write fast—it’s to write something you can build on. Please share your goal in the comments, and I’d also love to hear your thoughts on the loss of NaNoWriMo.

"Silicon Valley runs on hype cycles, and the AI boom is generating a new one—part gold rush, part ideology, and part quasi-religious devotion to building an alien intelligence. On this week’s 'Galaxy Brain,' Charlie Warzel explores the culture of this boom with the writer Jasmine Sun, who’s been chronicling San Francisco’s AI scene. Sun describes what this moment feels like on the ground, including a subculture of massive salaries, and a weird pride in leaning into tech’s strangeness. Together, Warzel and Sun unpack two major factions shaping the industry: the AI 'doomers,' and the accelerationists. The conversation also traces Silicon Valley’s rightward drift—the 'founder mode' backlash against regulation and employee activism and the rise of 'Trump style' provocation-first tech marketing. Finally, Sun and Warzel address the jagged reality of today’s models, which are brilliant at some tasks and weak at others."

Kratom is NOT being targeted: hear it directly from FDA and HHS leadership—they are targeting 7-OH and other synthetic products only. 7-OH is not kratom. Conflating the two is not public safety. Building policy on conflated information will harm people and drive the market underground.

OPENAI EUTHANIZED DALL·E TODAY. They officially retired DALL·E, DALL·E 2 and DALL·E 3. For many artists this feels like losing an instrument. Opportunists jump from trend to trend, quickly generating a few images before showing the results on LinkedIn as if they mastered an entirely new medium overnight. What wannabes fail to understand is that REAL artists often develop emotional attachments to their tools. Serious #artists spend years studying their instruments. Quirks, imperfections, embracing unpredictable accidents. Today I watched artist Suzy One Kenobi become genuinely sad over OpenAI euthanizing DALL·E 3. Suzy One, from ANÓTHER DIMENSION, recognized by the Financial Times as one of Amsterdam’s 750 Tech Scene Change Makers, over time built a personal relationship with DALL·E 2 and 3. Her work was noticed by artistic peers including Bas Kosters, Arno Coenen, Walter Van Beirendonck and Christie Wright from Moooi, exactly because of the unique visual language Suzy developed. What she loved about DALL·E 3 was that it simply wasn't advanced enough to fully comprehend the complexity of her layered prompt structures. Paradoxically that became part of the artistic #collaboration itself. Where DALL·E 3 shined was materials. Synthetic fur. Glossy enameled ceramics. Artificial plastics. Chrome. Reflective surfaces. At the end of today, Suzy and I sat down together and created the farewell image you see here. Ironically, NOT using ANYTHING OpenAI. We trained krea.ai’s model 2 to understand Suzy One’s visual language. We optimized typography afterwards using Gemini Nanobanana 2. The resulting image became a multimodal collab between us, her agent, and multiple AI models to mimic one: DALL•E 3. People familiar with Western culture recognize the figure inside the glass coffin: a fusion between #Pixar’s WALL·E and Dalí, the two cultural references that originally inspired #DALL·E's naming. To me, this moment also AGAIN says something about #OpenAI. I have written before about how little value OpenAI seems to attach to 'culture'. Today reinforces such. OpenAI benefited enormously from artists, speculative creatives, designers and experimental thinkers during the rise of GenAI. Yet culturally there appears very little respect for preserving historically important creative tools once they are no longer commercially optimal. Midjourney still allows users access to their first models, understanding something fundamentally important: artists remain attached to the tools that become part of their artistic identity. I believe OpenAI should build a museum of retired models. A place where historically important systems remain accessible for experimentation and cultural study. Including that bizarre transitional model between DALL·E 2 and 3 that we internally simply called 'Experimental.' Back when experimentation itself was still culturally valued inside OpenAI. It never made it. And what OpenAI did today, honestly, feels very close to vandalism.

The Hidden #Dangers of #AI in Modern #Warfare #Amanpour and Company The U.S. is reportedly deploying artificial intelligence to help fight its war with Iran, even as the Pentagon pushes for less human oversight over the use of this technology. Heidy Khlaaf is sounding the alarm about the safety and reliability of these tools, particularly in facilitating what is called a, quote, "kill chain." Dr. Khlaaf is the chief AI scientist at the AI Now Institute, and she shares with Hari Sreenivasan her concerns about the increasing use of AI systems in the military.

How to Avoid Plot Holes Plot holes—moments when a story’s cause-and-effect breaks down, a character acts inexplicably, or a world rule is ignored—pull readers out of the story. Good storytelling minimizes them by making every event feel earned. Below are practical techniques to avoid plot holes, paired with short examples from contemporary authors (both positive and cautionary), and a checklist you can use as you revise....
