hard drugs have destroyed many careers and lives in hollywood and elsewhere, it's sage advice for anyone working out there

can't speak for superhero films, though i could see it as a risk factor for career typecasting

Personally, I can't get over people posting things like how proud they are of their piece. That was literally made by typing in a pretty plain sentence of text and then waiting for the computer to spit out something cool that you can feel like you made.
isn't it a combination of not just prompts, but also weights, counterweights, training inputs, occasionally outputs re-fed back into the mix, and finally discretion in choosing from different resultant outputs?

there seems to be a bit of a meta-artistry / curation at play within the generative process.

but i guess it depends on the deep image generation technology they're working with.

My biggest investment is in a layer 2 Eth protocol that is gasless for NFTs. :D
my biggest investment is in middleware providing data to defi and working to offer historical data services to eth2

Imit8m3 posted...
This will fix high gas prices too. This basically removes all ETH coins that have prepared for a L2 solution, from using ETH as gas. Those coins will use another coin in their own ecosystem, as gas.
SHIB for example, will now use BONE as gas on the coins excange "shibaswap"
the move to PoS doesn't stop l2s from settling on it.

based on technical discussions i've followed, the implicit gameplan seems to be for eth to become a settlement layer for a diverse ecosystem of l2s that become more interoptable over time, which is a bit of a cop-out on the scalability question, but perhaps the future's indeed modular and crosschain.

i like longform videos with consistent audio dynamics so i can listen while falling asleep

doesn't have to be long stories, but long (30+ min) videos, even if there are many stories packed into it

use a compressor within reason for more consistent volume dynamics, consider eq-ing down extreme high/low frequencies and a more soft-spoken delivery

this is all personal preference though
