  • Logan

    Watching Professor X mentally decline hit so fucking close to home. When it came out, I had just lost my grandad (who raised me), and it was like watching a home movie in certain parts. Stewart nailed the fog of dementia that can ebb ad flow, and the relationship between him and Wolverine was pitch perfect.






  • I am not a neat freak by any stretch of the imagination. The mess my wife can make for just daily tasks is mind-blowing to me.

    We have probably a 12-foot long dual sink counter in our bathroom. Her shit fills her side and will make it to my side. I can have all my day to day stuff in a foot square space.




  • Jurassic Park.

    It was the first time that visual effects truly made me immersed in the movie. It also woke me up to how movies can be more than just entertainment and have messages that can resonate. Even though it was a blockbuster summer movie, it turned movies into potential art for me. I never looked at a movie the same way after.



  • In a single person’s lifetime, we went from not flying to landing on the moon. We absolutely can produce AGI in most of our lifetimes. I predict within 15-20 years, we will have a functioning AGI. It may also need to coincide with actually figuring out quantum computing just for sheer computational needs.

    This all hinges on if investments in AI continue at its current pace, which we already see cracks in though.
