Where did you write the following?

"Most of what passes for tech journalism is stenography"

I would like to cite this in a report I am working on. Cheers!

Social contact is good for my mood, it's just that I don't like it.

寝ておきて
大欠して
猫の恋

Dozing then waking
Letting out an immense yawn
The cat prowls for love.

Good morning, Urs - I am working with @meghansharris @jacquietran, and Antonio Sanchez on a book on generative art using R.

As part of the book, we would like to interview a few generative artists that we like and ask for permission to use their responses in the text. We believe that this will give a broader perspective on current trends on generative art. We have a preliminary questionnaire, and we'd be happy if you wanted to respond in writing, or to chat with us.

This is ridiculous.

It takes only one Elon Musk and one Jeff Bezos to ensure that thousands of would-be Mozarts spend their lives in precariousness, never learning music, always delivering amazon packages and losing limbs in Tesla factories.

Reinhold Niebuhr was a leading American public intellectual for a number of decades in the 20th century. He wrote:

"The final wisdom of life requires not the annulment of incongruity but the achievement of serenity within and above it."

“[The Lord] commands each of the faithful who prays to do so universally, for the whole world. Except for Jews. Or Judaizing Christians. Or gays.”

— John Chrysostom, Doctor of the Church, although in not so many words

This is a wonderful passage in Through the Eye of a Needle: Wealth, the Fall of Rome, and the Making of Christianity in the West, 350-550 AD

An official of the Ming empire reported that the Buddhists in his province had shown great zeal for building bridges. This was a public venture of which any traditional Chinese gentleman was bound to approve.
