guys I figured out the stupidest fucking way to compute the area of a right triangle

∫  f(x)dx
 ⁰
f(x) = ax

where a = the slope of the hypotenuse

i’ll give them this, the second trailer for the Minecraft movie looks a lot better than the last one

people ask why I don’t like AI.

this. this is why I don’t like AI. not because I think it’s a danger to humanity, not because i’m just jumping on the bandwagon, but because it removes creativity.

yes, I got the memo that scratch won’t be adding generative projects.

but in general, I despise most generative AI platforms. they take away creativity from real artists and writers and the such, and they allow for the spread of misinformation much easier than before. the only type of generative AI that I’m fine with is the assistive AI that comes with some art programs, but only because they don’t generate pieces, they help the artist make pieces. at least it retains some of the originality and creativity.

and don’t even get me started on the people who get paid to “write prompts” for AI. It’s the stupidest, most low-effort job I’ve ever heard of.

(edit: i’m also okay with platforms like ChatGPT because they’re really just demonstrating what their model can do. they’re not trying to market it as a generative AI to solve all problems, they’re just trying to show people what they made.)
