Because they looked "slicker". People dont want to use LINUX looking, command line sites; they want sparkle click-button-go.

HF is pretty obtuse unless you are a git user for the last decade+

Civitai also proves my point: They seem to have recently shit the bed because money not user experience.

I don't disagree with your original point but I feel your expectation is too much for the generation(s). They are happy to wait for someone else to do it -- even when the impact is minimal. That is my decade long observation being on both sides (in production and in audience) at this point.

How so? Now they collect money from someone else doing the leg work. Seems like a 2x win in their case.

Not just misinformation -- flat out lies.

You trolling? These are all things that have happened in the last week of THIS year.

or... Microwave 6-8 mins in a slightly covered Tupperware, and eat. Peeling the skin off removes the majority of the nutrients you want to eat.

Thanks for the job listings

The VP listing says it no longer is accepting applications
The generalist listing says it no longer is accepting applications
The senior visual desginer listing says it no longer is accepting applications

Also, hopefully you will have some in the future that are remote

I guess you shouldn't tell the Chinese or Japanese or Egyptians who based their languages on conceptual symbols.... 🙄

You on there now! Nice work!

Kind of reminds me of "The Apple Dumpling Gang" book and movie but with a Christmas backdrop

So, it pretty much nailed me. Been building VFX pipelines for decades, which includes being open to future ideas, strategic thinking and depth of how things actually work.

My girlfriend is kind of stunned how accurate it seems to be.

Sounds like you had lousy teachers. Mine taught them as guidance rules, over 40 years ago -- not absolutes.

Seriously a mystery how having a device capable of buying from anywhere on the global internet lead to the rise of.... *checks notes* .... people buying things across a global internet.

What insight.

Is a mystery that businesses would want to capitalize on the largest economy on Earth buying on a single day/weekend event? Seems like logic has escaped research here.

Really great breakdown -- most laypeople should be able to grok how this works from the excellent write up!
November 29, 2024 at 2:37 PM
Nope. Nothing that I havent read in books already. What truths did you get?

The data is the data. Use it to make your life better, no matter the use-case. 😉
