Tools like DALL-E 2* make me think that writing is becoming, paradoxically, the main medium of visual art. The input is text, the output is an image – and then more text is needed to make sense of such image, which functions as interface between texts. The image processing also happens via text, namely, code.

For years, I was in the top 50 users by karma on Hacker News.

That ended in 2020, when I complained about how silent the site was being on the murder of George Floyd. The result was a pile of angry messages telling me that it was "just a tech site" and its operators should "keep politics out of it."

When a community tells you who they are, believe them.

A "hybrid" course at #CHI2022 in which the instructor and all registered (paying) attendees were remote. Someone was guarding the door to make sure nobody snuck in to watch the Zoom session being projected to the completely empty room.
