Your future will not be automated as long there’s cheap labor to be exploited.

@Substack I reached out twice via your official support bot. It delegated every time to a human support employee but I have not heard back. I am unable to access my newsletter for 2 weeks now and need urgently support. The URL in question is: thenew.igorschwarzmann.com

@Substack Seriously, what does it take to get your attention to fix something that should be work of about 2 min? I can't access my own newsletter for almost three weeks now and apparently that's okay in your book.

@Substack My login is schwarzmann@gmail.com – It's a DNS problem with a custom domain situation. I am unable to resolve it myself as the dashboard is unaccessible as well with the custom domain.

And I’m not generally opposed to those technologies. I use Grammarly daily. What is so tiresome are the people who build products and market them as something that they’ve not. Why? Because they can’t say: writing tools for mediocre writers who don’t want to put in the effort.

Not hard to imagine a scenario where media publications try to hide the fact that they use synthetic media but charge you for premium human-made content anyway.

@StadtwerkBerlin Und dann ist da noch die Sache mit der Parkgebühr. Aktuell konnte man 4 Std. parken in der Zeit zwischen 8 und 20 Uhr. Nachvollziehbar und richtig. Eine Parkgebühr für die Zeit zwischen 20 und 8 zu verlangen ist absurd.

@StadtwerkBerlin Die Fluktuation, vor allem in Wohngebieten, ist bei Parkplätzen nach 20 Uhr quasi nicht vorhanden. Warum werden den nicht Lösungen entwickelt, die tatsächlich Menschen im Fokus haben?

This is either accelerationism or just the desperation of a younger generation that doesn’t understand any other outcome.

That being said, it‘s really hard to leave a community for ever as I have learned over the years. I don‘t want to break my own promises but for now, I‘m just an observer here.

No one was better at it than the late James Gandolfini in The Sopranos. The way he used food and eating was ... spectacular. In fact, the show had a deep appreciation for making food to what it is in Italian culture: the centerpiece.

Another very good example is the scene in Inglourious Basterds where Christoph Waltz‘e character has ordered and devours a Strudel while being intimidating in the most subtle yet undeniable way. The way he‘s conversing with a full mouth is funny but creepy.

I still think it's not something in the same league of films that have won the best film Oscar before it, but I do get why it hit a nerve.

They must have spent half of the budget for a decent movie just for coordinating this amount of famous actors to appear for what is mostly a very brief appearance—an bonkers cast. And after a while it becomes show-y, much like all the sets. An end in itself.

“If it’s not in my calendar, it doesn’t exist.“ — I know many people who operate like that but can we stop making this an aspirational thing? Can we escape that puritanical nonsense that everything in life is about work?
