Despite years of hype, the ability of generative A.I. to dramatically increase economic productivity remains theoretical. (Earlier this year, Goldman Sachs released a report titled “Gen AI: Too Much Spend, Too Little Benefit?”) The task that generative A.I. has been most successful at is lowering our expectations, both of the things we read and of ourselves when we write anything for others to read. It is a fundamentally dehumanizing technology because it treats us as less than what we are: creators and apprehenders of meaning. It reduces the amount of intention in the world.

mostly I think I have "found my audience," and it's way bigger than I ever thought it would be, and I don't need it to keep growing forever. This is great! This is very comfortable.

A couple readings you could have of that. There was a time I felt part of the "new exciting YouTuber crowd" and now I'm comfortably an old man on the site. I also think subscriber count is way less meaningful than people think -- most viewers do not get videos from their sub feeds anymore.

Some stats for data nerds:
From my first essay upload to 500k subs: 1,020 days
From 500k to 1m subs: 664 days
From 1m to 1.5m subs: 1,096 days

screenshot: current subscribers: 1,500,015

Missed getting it on the dot, but that's a fun big number!!

Our Seder in the Streets has ended, but the journey isn’t over. We’re marching. We are now going to take freedom into our own hands and march to a corporation that is directly collaborating with ICE and the Trump Administration. Watch this space…

‘Proactively fall in line:’ Holocaust Memorial Museum quietly changed content after Trump returned to office Two former employees said they believed the museum was altering its content preemptively to avoid unwanted negative attention from the Trump administration.

they're both kitchy license plate ways of spelling "nosferatu," but the british accent would make you pronounce it "nosferARtu". Hence, NOS4R2

Recently learned that the Joe Hill book "NOS4A2" was released in the UK as "NOS4R2," which is an extremely funny bit of accent translation
