nine-gear crow posted:Also wouldn't 1000 Mozarts defeat the point of a Mozart? Like the whole reason Mozart is Mozart (and why someone like Shakespeare was Shakespeare) is because his work stood out from the general background noise of slop based on its quality. If you have 1000 people all producing Mozart quality material all at once that that simply becomes the baseline and while that seems good on its head, you quickly introduce the Incredibles problem where if everything is an amazing work of art, then suddenly nothing is.

Were there important social components to the existence of a Mozart which allowed a child prodigy to be recognized and brought to thrive under a system of tutelage and patronage? No, it's purely a matter of numbers.

Like the whole reason Mozart is Mozart (and why someone like Shakespeare was Shakespeare) is because his work stood out from the general background noise of slop based on its quality no. as has been pointed out, there are already thousands of mozarts, right now. like, there are literally at least one thousand - and most likely, very many more - who are just as good at composing music as mozart. whether they will be recognized as such during or after their lifetime - in many cases centuries after their lifetime - has as much to do with connections and money and even weird quirks of fate as it does to do with talent. like if mozart didn't have his fathers connections to the music world from early on in his life, who knows how his work would have gone and been received then. or if anyone would know about it now also, mozart himself could barely make ends meet by the end of his life, which was short and during most of which he was sick and in debt so i guess it makes sense that elon wants that. he's already got it Earwicker fucked around with this message at 19:00 on Dec 18, 2023 |

Elias_Maluco posted:14/88 Sort of unrelated but I was driving in Calgary a few months ago when a big Mercedes SUV cut me off to get into a turning lane. The license plate was either SS3388 or 3388SS (I can't remember which order), but my first thought was "Oh, that must be to trick speed cameras. This guy must be a total shithead driver." I got a good look at him as I drove past, and that's when it hit me. Mercedes, 1933, Hitler number, SS, clean-cut doofy-looking blonde-haired blue-eyed white guy. I get it now. It is a total shithead, but in a much different context. Hooray for him being out and proud. Just fantastic.

Women almost universally have less children as their standard of living and access to reproductive healthcare improves. But since some rich guys think that's wrong, we should definitely consider both sides here.

Agent smith shouldn't have been mad at humans. It's the robots fault that he was programmed to feel that way. He could have just been programmed to be apathetic to his batteries, unlike me who literally curses every waking moment I have to deal with those electric holding bastards.

One thing most people don't realise about the Matrix is that in the years before they built the Matrix the machines would have been making the coolest video games that you could imagine. They probably had AIs where you could just type in a prompt and it'd spit out a video game. E: and the porn! My god the porn!
