    Sorry everyone, I've fallen over after reading that a group of architects have criticised Patrik Schumacher's comments as "scientifically flawed". It used to be that it was easy to know which side you were on: the opposite of whatever Parametric Patrik said. No more, apparently!

    The answer to the 4 films question is Malick: Badlands, Days of Heaven, The Thin Red Line, The New World. That was easy no need for any questions; yr wrong about the New Wave lads, if you say Kieślowski you're a pretentious 15-year-old (which is fine if you're 15). MAYBE Melville

    I have read and obsessed about Don DeLillo’s work throughout my adult life, but I find it impossible to imagine more intelligent and rewarding work on the subject than ’s – Infinite Detail is not going away.

    Ideas often are meaningless--any idea can be executed a million diff ways. But I have a hard time imagining in this case DeLillo being more up on this particular idea than literally just was with Infinite Detail. I hope some comparison pieces are written.

    Sorry to Scotland, but this whole thing thing is just an elaborate way of generating research topics for STS researchers now that they've exhausted light rail and molluscs, and you can't convince me otherwise

    Somehow, we go again.

    Hell, their entire paper conclusion is about how facial bias is bad and we need to address facial bias in society. Stop calling it phrenology! It's valid and necessary research! And you can't even blame Elsevier for this one because he linked the full paper!

    Paul Daniels: apparent early IoT enthusiast.

    Paul Daniels, stage magician, sat at an Atari 800 with crt monitor. Hideous flower arrangements behind him.
    Did you know Paul Daniels programmed his own game for the Atari 800? He read 30 hr Basic for the BBC, and away he went.

    Yes, letting Softbank and the UAE build you a “smart forest city” is definitely going to work. Please, I’m begging you, don’t make me tap the pinned tweet.

    The world's fastest-sinking city has an audacious plan to save itself from rising sea levels. The broad strokes? Move its 7 million-plus population to a "smart forest city" on the 3rd-largest island in the world. They plan to break ground next year.
