Fine, 99% of China "landmass" does not have 50G. 100% of the US does not have 10G. The fact that in NYC, the richest city in the history of cities, most buildings still only have access to cable from a single provider is absolutely ridiculous. Urban centers is what is worth comparison here, and the US falls massively behind.

This is the same American-branded copium we see during discussions of socialized healthcare, which every other first-world country on the planet seems to manage. China has 10G and 50G home fiber. Zurich is larger geographically than Manhattan, while having much lower population density.

And how much have they spent compared to US companies? What of carbon footprint?

Depicting deceased people with AI is objectively distasteful, especially from a self-described "ad guy" who should know better.

Yes. Pretty hypocritical for an article about "crossing red lines" to use AI slop for an image of a real person. Very disrespectful.

Exactly. It's like the difference between thinking about tech proficiency in terms of "being good at C++" vs. being good at software engineering and being language agnostic.

I know not everyone has this distaste for it, but as soon as I hit the landing it was so obviously AI-generated that I had to close it.

Classic Thing, Japan. There are plenty of western movies that don't follow the three-act structure (off the top of my head, Apocalypse Now, Mulholland Drive (and probably most Lynch), Boyhood (and other Linklaters), basically any Robert Altman) and plenty of foreign films that do.

Out of curiosity, have you tried running extremely light roast/dense beans through your grinder? How does it perform with them?

Anyone else find this stuff extremely distasteful? "Disrupting" creativity and art feels like it goes against our humanity.

When I lived in Bordeaux I remember seeing billboards basically advising young people to not use "txt speak" and instead write "real French" to preserve the language.
