I recognize appreciating cool machines, I really do. I've just never been able to wrap my head around being a car guy. Spending huge chunks of change on a car, consistently modifying it, watching car shows all the time. I just dont get it. What's the big draw for you?

My new rule for myself is everything I bring into my house has to be art. I got this beautiful hand made cutting board the other day. Anything can be art, and it doesn’t all have to be pricy. I threw some pathos I propagated into a soup can the other day. Boom art!

This is mostly me trying to cope with all the AI slop that is slowly eating digital and physical art forms. For me, art is anything human made, and I want to surround myself with it.

Im the same way.

Everything is losing its human and visceral-Ness. Im convinced its a big reason there's so much depression- people dont feel any more.

Yeah, its sad the age of any computer produced art (graphics, electronic music, coding) is over because of corpo ai slop. But all the more reason to go outside and build something real in the workshop or put on a folk concert.

Yeah. Though I don't think coding will be tapped out for awhile. I'm a little biasses as that's what I do for work. Tech Twitter is full of people claiming AI is going to replace engineers. I work on a very successful team of very talented engineers, and if I told them AI is going to replace them, they would laugh. But I would be lying if said I didn't fantasize about switching to a job where I get to build something with my hands.

Yeah i agree for good coding and amy true art it will take a while if ever, for ai to replace that. At least not corpo slop llm. Real machine learning, sure, that may advance a lot. Or agi. If that ever actually happens.
