The ultra-rare camrip from 1983 is a must-see just to hear the reactions from the audience.

It's hard to overstate how much of an impact Daicon IV had on the animation industry.

"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!"

counterpoint!

the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time

the ceiling on generative media remains so low and transparent that anyone who maintains a real skillset will be able to leverage that like a superpower once this nonsense terminally caves in on itself

BlueSky Engineer Why @why.bsky.team:

Oh interesting, people who don't know how to build software are getting mad at my post about building software. Cute.
Let me be clear, over the next year, the job of software engineer will shift dramatically to no longer have typing syntax into an editor as its primary time sink.

Why
โ€ช@why.bsky.teamโ€ฌ
Until December of last year I was using LLMs as fancy autocomplete for coding. It was nice for scaffolding out boilerplate, or giving me a gut check on some things, or banging out some boring routine stuff.

In the past two months Claude has written about 99% of my code. Things are changing. Fast

My state. I don't even know what to do while it's business as usual for almost everyone else here. But yes, if anyone knows of a creative writing/SFF or disability studies academic jobs in CA or elsewhere where we will have rights, this is a good time to DM me. Thanks.

One trans woman's decision not to change her gender marker on her documents - along with the zealotry and cruelty of the Kansas State Legislature - has revealed a terrifying truth:

Kansas has a transgender registry.

The Children Speaking 
from the Rubble

Tell us, what do the living do? 
Do you dance? Do you make bread
with each other? Do you walk in the parks
in autumn, smelling the late summer flowers?
Is it true that some things get to grow old?
What is the world doing now? Are you fighting
with sticks and stones? Do you remember 
us? Do you lie down under the stars 
and listen to the birds passing overhead, 
and do you get to feel the little wings of your own 
wild heart be opened? You have somewhere 
to go then, don't you? Go. Don't let us keep you. 
We have names. We are safe. We're at school.
We are hiding in our favorite little places, waiting
for you to tap us on the shoulders, to tell us
it was just a joke, come home now, 
and the bombs and boots are just a game we're playing,
and the bread and milk are waiting on the table,
and the moon is new, and the gardens are in blossom. 
This sentence is the length of one of our shoes.

โ€”Joseph Fasano

If you are feeling helpless in the face of All Of It (and it's a lot), I am telling you: find a way to plug in locally.

Figure out who is doing something-- anything-- meaningful, and see if you can help.

The first org you find may not be the one. But you will get there.

It will help your heart.

And you know, you can extend from this to a real important corallary to "Everyone is 12 Now" theory is "There has been a generation-long project to keep people 12."

Conservative news and opinon outlets, regressive mass audience entertainment products, etc. all propagandize a chilidish worldview.

Hama is beloved for good reason. He's a good guy who takes zero shit. The Joe comic may *exist* as a vehicle To Sell Toys, but come on. A lot of you are Gundam fans. You know that a work of fiction can be so much more than that, and the classic Joe comics are proof.
